On Saturday, the wonderful team in Wellington held their first Extravaganza, celebrating the release of the 2015-2016 Annual Catalogue. The demonstrators did an amazing job and the day was a great success. I was very privileged to have been a part of the preparation and then teaching on the day. Those who attended were treated to an afternoon of creating, prize draws, and gorgeous displays with loads of inspiration.

So what did they create? Here's the four projects that were taught...

Bev and Di taught everyone how to make this beautiful sponged and water coloured card using the You've Got This stamp set...

The card has an extension, which was perforated using a Paper Piercing Tool, Stampin' Pierce Mat and the Updated Essentials Paper Piercing Pack, so it can be torn off by the recipient and used as a bookmark...

Everyone enjoyed getting messy with Jacque's project. They learned how to create a bokeh background and finished this lovely card and envelope using the Friendly Wishes stamp set...

Jackie showed everyone how to create a waterfall card using the Sprinkles of Life stamp set and coordinating Tree Builder Punch. The festive edge was created with Fringe Scissors and Cherry on Top Cotton Paper...

Not sure what a waterfall card is? When you pull on the tag at the bottom, the images roll over like a waterfall. Something like this...

And lastly, Sandra and I taught the same project as the Hamilton Extravaganza... how to use the Gift Bag Punch Board to create this gift bag decorated with the Awesomely Artistic stamp set and Expressions Natural Elements...
