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

Getting Together...

Last Friday I was lucky enough to travel out to Ballan, a beautiful part of Victoria, to share the day with Alison. We've known each other for a while, but haven't managed to get to each other's home for a stamp...?

Her home was in the middle of this gorgeous little town & the rain that fell during the day only added to the atmosphere of being all snuggly & warm while sharing ideas about SU! products and the new catalogue!!

Most of Australia has been in a draught for a long time, so the rain is absolutely welcome - I just didn't like the aquaplaning that occurred a couple of times as I drove the 35 minutes to Alison's home...eeek!!

Throughout the day we shared thoughts of the retiring stamp sets that are leaving us and of course, the new crisp catalogue that is just gorgeous!!

We eventually began to work with the new stamp sets, the new In-Colours & embellishments that we are able to purchase BEFORE the catalogue goes live, just one of the perks of being a SU! demonstrator!! 

To show off the new In-Colours of Rococo Rose, Terracotta Tile, Pretty Peacock, Seaside Spray & Purple Posy cardstock, it was Alison's idea to make a bookmark to hand out.

How good do they look :)

This helped us to settle in, to work with the Magnolia Lane & Woven Threads DSP & a few of the stamp sets. We used Good Morning Magnolia, Above The Clouds & the new Story Label punch.

You are just going to love them, there is such a range of themes & occasions throughout the catalogue - there is so much to drool over!!

I truly loved spending time with Alison, her husband, Tod and Poppy, their mini Schnauzer. 

Thanks for opening your house for me, Alison, I promise I will be back xxx
