Petal Cone Santa

I was surfing the net for some inspiration on what I could make using the a new die I purchased recently.... the petal cone die which is exclusive to Stampin Up.  And I came upon a this blog ( http://deliaspaperworld.wordpress.com/2011/10/09/blutenkelch-weihnachtsmann-petal-cone-die-santa-stampinup-punch-art/  which I cased to make a Petal Cone Santa that sits on a box ready to fill with Christmas cheer.....

Here is a close up of the punch art santa......

And the full version.... Love how he turned out.....

I'll be back soon with some more Christmas creations real soon.....

Take care

WOW presentation - Canberra Regionals

I received a call from Sophie at Stampin Up asking if I would like to do a wow presentation for Canberra Regionals and of course I said YES.... I was so excited.....

So this is what I demonstrated..... How to make a frame ready to put a photo on using chipboard, morning mocha designer series paper, hand made embellishments, top note die and of course the bigshot......

These literally only take about 3 to 4 minutes to make.....

Some other samples I had on display using chipboard and DSP are an album using the top note die....

A wall hanging using the large scallop square, square duo die and a fridge magnet using the scallop circle die.....

Just remember to cover the back of the chipboard before you run them through the bigshot face down.  Why face down you may ask, well to get all of the detail from the top note die, otherwise this will be on the back of your design..... So give them ago with Christmas coming up and all.....

I hope you liked my creations and until next time....
