Shadow Stamping Class Cards

Hi All,

Hope you are all well and busy crafting away. I am sorry I have not blogged much lately but I have been busy with shows and getting ready for my Paper Craft Event on Saturday 23rd July which is looming up quickly. There will be masses of new inspiration as I have been busy working on design boards and there is a huge amount of new stock with great prices and multi buy offers also a up to half price Sale section as well to pick up another great bargain. There will be great demos to watch and lets not forget the homemade cakes on offer Mmmnn.....



Can I say a huge thankyou to all the lovely ladies that attended my 8th July Shadow Stamping class. We had a great lot of fun and you all created some stunning pieces of art work for your cards. It was great to see the improvement with a lot of the ladies that have previously struggled with using distress inks but that are now really getting to grips with them and enjoying the effects that you can create with them. So well done to you all!

I thought I would post up some of my example cards so that you can have another look if you did not manage to take photos. Here are a few fairy ones....
Tumbled Glass and Stormy Sky....






Mmmm.....Bundled Sage and Forest Moss....





I love mushrooms....



A blue shadow floral card....







Well that's all for now, back to the designing. I do hope that has given you a little bit more inspiration and I will hopefully see a lot of you on Saturday.

Artwork and Cards from Liverpool Show

Hi All,

I just thought I would share with you some of the artwork and cards that I did at Liverpool show with J & C.Creations last weekend. Let me know what you think.....

The flowers are made using a gorgeous new creative expressions floral umount stamp set......




Hmmmm Bundled sage with Antique Linen, one of my favourite combos.....




This is using one of my favourite stamps this year, It is a Stamp Barn flower stamp....




Kept it quite sepia for this one, using one of the great Hobby art clear stamp sets.....




Gone all arty with this one, a great one for a man. I have used a Cuttlebug folder, masses of embossing and some great Tim Holts metal add ons, see what you think....




Well that is all for now
Keeeeeep Crafting,

Lisa. B. Designs April class

Hi All,

Wow isn't it cold today!!! I haven't felt that great all weekend with a cold and my back playing up but the lovely weather had put a spring in my step but today my spring has froze and there's not much bounce in it!! LOL!
Anyway how are you all? I know a few of my lovely's have been breaking an odd limb or two, hope you all feel better soon!

A huge thank you to all the ladies that came to my class on Friday 1st April (and help me set up) and alot of fun we had too!

All of you managed to get the hang of the resist technique and get a card completed and a lot of you also managed to get some extra art work done, so well done to you all.

Here is a little taster of what we did if you missed it......





I have had alot of great feedback from a lot of you regarding the mobile shop at the class. With many of you telling me that you love the up to date stock that I am stocking, so thank you for that. I thought I would include some pictures of the shop on here to give some of you an idea of what it is like if you missed out.

Remember the shop is open to the public on the first Frday of every month at the hall. For more details please email me at lisabaker1@btinternet.com ............











Just to let you know next monthes class is on the 6th May and there are still a few spaces. We will be doing a Trinitage card and a floral nice and easel card. If you wish to book or know more please email me at the address above.
Here is a little taster of it.......
