NEW STOCK UPDATE

Lots of NEW stock hit the shelves today. Way to much to show here but I have got a small sample for you. New colours & top ups of "Bakers Twine" Lots of colours.

More top ups of Prima Resin. These are just so sweet & they colour up to cordinate with most projects. More of these on the way.

 Lots of new Paper ranges. This is one from "Authentique". Love the colours plus Prima Flowers.

Another awesome paper range from "Authentique". These papers are just so beautiful & are a really nice thick quality too. Prima flower top ups also arrived.

This is my favourite new range from Studio Calico. It is such lovely creams & beiges. These pics just don't do this range justice. Stay tuned Monday for more. I ran out of time today as it has been so busy.
Thanks for stopping by.        Cheers Di  xx Pin It Now!

New 12" x 12" Scrapbook Frames

Just received more stock of these great 12" x 12" glass Scrapbook Frames. Colours are black or white. These would make a great Christmas present. They are beautifully finished, the white ones have a nice "beachy" feel & the black ones are a bit shabby chic. Be quick as the last lot were gone before lunch.   Cheers Di  xx Pin It Now!

"So Cheeky" by Di Garling

I just thought I would show you this page I did  for a challenge a while back. I was never happy with it so I pulled it apart, changed the background, took away a few things, added a few things, & now I am finally happy with it. I seem to be doing this lately. I suppose this is because we keep raising our own bar!!! Hope you like it.
All the products used here can be purchased in my shop. Until next time. Thanks for stopping by.

Silver & White Christmas Cards by Di Garling

Hello everyone. Today I just wanted to show you some Christmas Cards I made over the weekend. I have used a gorgeous silver & white foil paper as I just wanted to stick to a silver & white monochromatic colour scheme. I have also used loads of Green Tara ribbons, trims, crystal sprays, Christmas embellies & more, all in silver of course.  I am teaching these cards in my November Card Classes at my little shop at The Entrance. We will be teaching these cards throughout November. If you would like to join in, ring the shop on 43344451 to book. Be quick as the classes are filling up fast. We will be making three of these, not sure yet which three, I will decide this week!!! Decisions decisions!!! Class cost is $30 for a 4 hour class & we supply everything.

I love this card. It is called a "Twisted Easel" card. I love the way it twists & stands up by itself yet folds down flat. I have used some lovely Green Tara mesh for the bow, another lovely trim they do along the bottom inside section & finished off with a cute little silver Christmas spray on the front. We are definately making this card in class.

This card I have stamped this lovely Lampost & heat embossed it in silver & of course used Green Tara ribbon & flower.

I do so love this range of foil Christmas papers. Lots of glimmer & glam. You will learn how to make this beautiful medallion out of punches!!!

More stamping, heat embossing & of course, you guessed it, more yummy Green Tara Silver & Crystal Flower Sprays teamed with some of their beautiful ribbons.

Here is another nice Green Tara embellishment . You will notice on all of these cards I have used tiny chipboard "Card Greetings" which we get made for us. They look great on cards & are just a bit different to your average run of the mill stamp greeting. On these cards I have just simply heat embossed  them.
Hope you like these & thanks for dropping by. Until next time.    Cheers Di  xx Pin It Now!

"Cards with Glam" ..... by Jan Rankine

Hi everyone. Firstly I just want to say thanks  for all your kind words & comments for the cards I made last week that we posted here on the blog. Di  normally designs all the cards for the monthly card classes for the shop,  but this month I have stepped up to the challenge & have gone "Card Crazy". First the cards for the October Card Classes & now more cards for the Green Tara Blog.

I had such a great time making these cards – bling and flowers are my all time favourite things and Green Tara never fails to deliver.  Together with a few border punches, some Glimmermist and Cuttlebug  these beautiful Green Tara products make designing  cards & other projects easy and heaps of fun.  

 These cards were made for the "Green Tara" blog. Click the link to go over & get a full list of products used. Also if you go over to the "Green Tara" website you can see all their lovely goodies. At Di's Scrapbook Shop there is a huge range of all things Green Tara, from their flowers, petals, Silver Sprays, leaves, ribbons, trims & more. I suppose as Di & myself are both on the Green Tara Design Team, we love their products & Di just keeps getting more & more in stock at the shop. Yeah!!! Anyway, I hope you like my cards & perhaps get a few ideas of using Green Tara goodies. Leave a comment & let me know what you think.
