So if you are a Stampin' Up! demonstrator located in Australia or New Zealand then please feel free to leave me a comment with your email address then I'll contact you with information on how to join our group.”

My cards all contain products and stamps from the Occasions and Saleabration catalogues:

This first project is a gift card holder made with some gorgeous Coastal Cabana cardstock and Saleabration patterned paper. Have a close look at the tag on the front it is punched with the newest Tag topper punch. Top and bottom of the 2" wide piece is punched so that there is a hole top and bottom to thread a ribbon through.

Pull on the ribbon at the top and out comes the gift card. A very simple gift card holder.

My second project uses the bow builder punch this is a favourite as is so easy to punch out a few pieces and stick them on with glue dots.

As you can see the tails of the bow can fold behind or below the bow. The words say Many Thanks, and are from the "Crazy For you" stamp set.

On my late night creative adventures I found a beautiful flower made with the build a bow punch. I had to have a go at it using some pretty floral paper like the Painted blooms DSP. My sentiment is also from the "crazy for you" Framelit and stamp bundle.

This morning I put my Butterfly Basics bundle to work to create this CASE of Deb Valder's acetate window she calls laser cut technique.

I've used some of the delicious Sahara sand lace ribbon and a "Something borrowed" embellishment to the ribbon.

So there are my four projects using stamps and products from the Occasions Catalogue and Saleabration catalogue.
