Spreading Some Social Sunshine!!

Today's 'Show 'n Tell' with Kelly is all about spreading sunshine - how could I possibly resist this, hey?

Up until Friday morning I was going to make a card or scrap page about the sunshine, specifically, or maybe even my 'son-shines', my 2 sons... But then I saw that a close friend, who lives in Tasmania needs a different kind of sunshine....

Nicole had spent the last 4 days in hospital with her boy. He was very unwell with a stomach bug of some sort & given our current world, it would have been a very worrying time for her, her husband & his older sister. 

It's always so tough when our children can't tell us what is wrong , what pain they are feeling or what happened. Thankfully they are all home now, sleeping in their own beds, (not on a plastic chair) and are finally recovering!

This all being said, onto my card for my mate, Nicole!!

Using the Share Sunshine PDF Download, (which gives various COVID-19 related sentiments), Ive teamed it with the Bird Ballad DSP & Daisy Delight stamp set.

Dont you love how the petals are curved? Ive used the Bone Folder to just gently curve them, to give them some life.

I've also placed a strip of that DSP inside, to give it a lift, otherwise the Whisper White cardstock would look so stark. It was screaming for colour!!

This card just has to cheer Nicole and her family, with all those bright colours, right?

Thanks for leaving me a comment below, be sure to jump forward, (or backward) and continue looking at Michelle's amazing creations - there are certainly talented people around here!!

Kylie's Demonstrator Training Program - Monthly Blog Hop

Thanks for coming along for this Blog Hop!! I've joined other demonstrators from a group run by Kylie, hence the name, right?

Since being at home due to the Corona Virus, I have been looking for new ideas to share with my stamping ladies, over Zoom. 

Each Monday night is a hoot as we sit in our clothes, or sometimes pyjamas, laugh together & show off our latest creations of the week.

During this time I like to offer them a challenge so that they have a reason to create & hopefully I inspire them to try something new & finish with making a card for someone special!!

So last night I showed them my latest creation...

Im not sure what this fold is actually called, so Im calling it a Triple Fold Card :)

It is simply a piece of DSP scored at various places along the length so that it folds in on itself!

Super simple but so effective!! I love how the DSP does all the work & I dont have to do much additional work to it!!

Maybe you can find some DSP that needs to be loved, to send a card like this to someone special too?

Thanks for commenting below & thanks for stopping by...enjoy the rest of the Blog Hop! You can start from the top of the list or find my name, (36) and continue from there. Enjoy x

COVID-19 Giveback PDF Download.

Our world has completely changed over the last 6 weeks. COVID19 has spun us all up-side-down and in-side-out. I've gone from working to not working, to working again - even though I am in Child Care, an employment area that was considered essential.

It's during time of crisis that we often see companies, families & workers assist others. It's the human way of life, right?

And Stampin' Up! are no different!! During this difficult time, many of us are at home, isolating for their own health & the health of others, while nurses, doctors, supermarket staff, cleaners, pharmacy staff, emergency workers, school & child care educators & more are working, trying to help others.

In order to help various world wide organisations fight this incredible enemy, SU! have released 15 pages of COVID19 related printable images for you to use on cards. You can send cards to your friends & family or give them to those who are working on the front line, to show your support.

This photo only shows a portion of the sentiments. These are also available in various colours.

Some are 'tongue-in-cheek', some are a great play on words, while others absolutely show our gratitude to those who are working tirelessly, whatever their field of work.

Some of the sentiments also show that while we understand that we need to stay home, (for now), some of us have let ourselves go!! (The owner of this blog is very much included in this!!)

The downloadable PDF is available here, worldwide & is sent to your email directly, once payment has been made.

These are just a couple of examples of what I have made, using the black & white sentiments only, until I have assess to a colour printer... Id love to see what you make, which sentiments make you smile & create. Be sure to use the #sharesunshine so that we can all admire your work too!!

Be sure to come back soon, to see the rest of the cards that I've made using more of these sentiments.

Keep stampin', Jo
