Cards We Made in Canada

Here is just a sample of the cards Soni and I made in Canada over Mother's Day Weekend.  Dennis ALWAYS has so many beautiful samples in the showroom, it's just spectacular!  And he always has great cards for us to  make.

Here we learned how to make those small, beautiful roses, using a new rosebud maker die set.  The set allows you to make 5 different size roses! 

In this example, the roses were made from the largest two dies. 

We also used 2 butterfly punches; the small and medium sets.  These sets first punch out the butterfly and then you give it texture and dimension by putting it in the embosser.  I just love the layered look of these butterflies.


Isn't this card just gorgeous with the beautiful satin bow ribbon? 

 We learned how to use this new bow maker.  It is easier to use than the flat, plastic template one, especially for thicker ribbon.

 These new bow makers have simple picture instructions for you.

This is a great masculine card and you were able to personalize it with the Alphabet Clip Punch set and peel off letters.

With this punch set you are able to punch ovals with inner clips that allow you to weave them on ribbon!  What a neat way to personalize your card!

Hope you enjoyed viewing some of the new items we brought back for you from Canada.
Please let me know if I can be of any assistance to you on these new items!

Easy Bow Maker Demo

Hello Everyone,
Yesterday, with the help of Soni, we video taped my first demo! It was fun and it only took 3 tries! It reminds me the fun you see actors have while filming a movie. All of a sudden you just go blank, and start laughing.

It was a great experience and I hope you will find it informative. I know many of you have this little template, and either, forget or don't know how to use it.

So, sit back, enjoy, and hopefully, you'll dust off that plastic bow maker template and start making lots of bows! If you need more instruction on how to use it, just stop by the shop and I'll gladly show you in person!

Thanks for watching and check back often, as I will start to add little, helpful demos here!
