Detailed Dogwood, Hills of Tuscany and Perennial Lavendar cards

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room 

I am popping to to share some of the display projects from this months class. I had a fun creating the first three cards using the Detailed Dogwood stamp which is free with a qualifying purchase during January and February. 



But my favourite cards to make were the ones using the Hills of Tuscany stamps. These stamps make even the most painting challenged person (like me) into an artist.

Garden Meadow & Meadering Meadow Designer Paper from Stampin' Up! - lots of project samples.

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room 

I have been busy in the class room making some sample cards using the new Garden Meadow stamps from Stampin' Up! It is too cold outdoors to be gardening - but doing some simple stamping and colouring with these projects made me feel more spring-like! 

I also used the co-ordinating dies with some Meandering Meadows DSP to make these projects.

Stampin' Up! Backstage Las Vegas – My Swap Project

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room

One perk of achieving a leadership status as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is you get to attend events such as BackStage. (I am legally required to say here that less than 5% of demonstrators achieve this status). 

This event was amazing and as well as meeting fellow demo friends old and new and receiving some fantastic training we got to participate in swaps. This was my event themed swap made with the Crafting with You bundle and the Next Destination stamps. 


The circle piece in the centre had a pin on the back so it would be attached to a lanyard or event bag. 

If you swapped with me – thank you! I have already been sharing your creations with my lovely ladies. 

If you would like to like to join my team or find out more about being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, please contact me and we can chat!

Cottage Wreath Christmas Card, Gatefold Fancy Fold Card using stamps and dies from Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to Elizabeth's Craft Room 

This is a fast but effective card to make – something we all need when making lots of Christmas cards. 
We used 3 step stamping to quickly stamp the wreath and die cut it. 




The panel with the Wreath is just attached on the left hand panel. You could use DSP for the red layer, but we simply stamped one of the leaf stamps tone on tone in Soft Sorbet to create some texture. 

What is your go-to fancy fold when you are in a hurry?
