Sydney Regional Seminar 20 November 2010

I went to the Stampin' Up! Regional Seminar in Sydney yesterday. I learnt so many great techniques. I'll show you these techniques in coming posts. We all had a great time.

I made swap cards to trade with people at the Seminar. I've received so many swap cards. I'll show some of them to you in later posts. Here is the card I made for the swaps.




















Greeting is from Occasional Quotes Hostess (level 3) stamp set #121472 (wood mount) #120142 (clear mount). I made the ghosts with the Two-step owl punch #118074.
Cardstock: Pumpkin Pie, Concord Crush, Basic Black & Whisper White.
Accessories: Modern Label Punch #119849, Word Window Punch #119857, Frost White Shimmer Paint #116854.
Bubble Background: I borrowed this technique from Dawn Griffith, a Stampin up! demonstrator in the US. Click HERE to go to the video on Dawn's blog


Here is another card made by Tracy Kennedy. It uses the Christmas Cocoa Specialty Designer Series Paper in the Dress up Christmas promotion available until 30 November. I really love this gorgeous Christmas Tree.

Dress Up Christmas projects

I have made these cute bags for Christmas & a 12" x 12" scrapbook page.


















Patterned papers are from the Christmas Cocoa, stamps from Gifted & Welcome Christmas sets, & ribbons Riding Hood Red Striped Grosgrain & Sleigh Bells, all from the Dress up Christmas promotion. Inks Early Espresso, Riding Hood Red & Old Olive markers.

























The large snowflakes & red & white flourishes are both flocked. All the patterned papers are from the Christmas Cocoa Specialty Designer Series paper from the Dress up Christmas promotion. See Dress up Christmas posted 12 November. Sale ends 30 November.
Stamped snowflakes are from the Snow Swirled stamp set #115868. Ink Soft Suede #115657.
You can just see the Dazzling Diamond glitter #102023. I glued that on with a 2-way Glue Pen #100425. Make sure you wipe the paper with the Embossing Buddy #103083 first to take the static away.
