On the weekend it was our turn for Queensland to have it's Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Event and wasn't it a wonderful day jammed pack with displays, information, demonstrations and Products to see and play with.
This year I was on Product Playground helping with the Stamping Table. I made a couple of things for the display boards one being a Christmas Wall hanging using the framelits and the gorgeous Stamp Set called Watercolour Winter. I just love this set. You may recognise that this is similar to one I made last year.
We also had to make something using the hostess set called "Christmas Wishes". This is not a set I would normally choose to buy but I gave it a go and came up with these for the display. Two little gift cards which have lots of paper piecing, multiple stamped images in different colours that I have cut out and pieced together to get a colourful image.
Here is my Santa Place Card for the Christmas Table. My eldest son saw this and said is that what we are having for Christmas this year? I guess now I'll have to make one for everyone at the table so as not to disappoint him.
Here is a card I made called an "Easel". So simple to make yet very effective for a "Special Card" for a special person. Again using Winter Watercolour along with the Holiday Ornaments and the wonderful new Coredinations Cardstock.
Here's a peek at the inside.
And lastly a "Joy Fold Card" to finish off the display. I used the Winter Watercolour poinsettia image to make these flowers. Stamping them three times and cutting out layers omitting the background leaves each time and then joining them together with a Vintage Brad.
I had such a wonderful time at the Heartfelt Event and look forward to convention now next year which is going to be held in the same place, Brisbane.
I promise I won't keep it this long between posts again.
Happy Christmas Stamping everyone.
