Positive Thoughts 'Class In The Mail' Week 4 - Gorgeous Grape

Today was the last of my Positive Thoughts 'Class In The Mail' Zoom sessions - these 4 weeks have flown by!

This class was based around the Gorgeous Grape Kit and we each created a Pizza Box Gift Package using the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set and Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather and Basic Grey Inks and Card.

Here is my finished box, along with those my ladies made - please visit the comments and leave them all some love :-) 




So that's it for this 'Class In The Mail'.  It was the first time doing classes this way, courtesy of Covid-19, but I've really enjoyed it, and so have my ladies.  I have already posted details of the next 'Class In The Mail' over on my Facebook Page and have others in the pipeline, so watch this space.

Don't forget my Annual Catalogue Launch Party on Wednesday 3rd June - more details can be found HERE - I hope to see you then.

In the meantime,
Stay Safe and Happy Stampin'

Our third class in the Positive Thoughts 'Class In The Mail' was based around the Melon Mambo Kit and we each created 3 cards using the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set and Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green and Basic Grey Inks and Card.

Here are my finished cards - I'll add the cards the Ladies made as soon as I get their photos.  Please visit the comments below and on my Facebook Page to leave them all some love :-)

Positive Thoughts 'Class In The Mail' Week 2 - Bermuda Bay

So that has completed week 2 of the Positive Thoughts 'Class In The Mail' Zoom sessions and once again, we had loads of fun.  My downline and 'Sister-from-another-Mr-&-Mrs' Clair also joined us for a bit for a chat and to meet the ladies.

Our second class was based around the Bermuda Bay Kit and we each created 3 cards using the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set and Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Basic Grey Inks and Card.

Here are my finished cards - I'll add the cards the ladies made later, once I have the photos.  Please visit the comments and leave them all some love :-)

Positive Thoughts 'Class In The Mail' Week 1 - Neutrals

Today saw the first of my Positive Thoughts 'Class In The Mail' Zoom sessions, and boy did we have fun.  My classes are always very sociable events with lots of laughter and nattering, and I was surprised that I didn't need to mute everyone while demonstrating LOL.  The second camera above my work area also helped immensely - something I need to remember for future videos!  Zoom seems to be the ideal place for online classes - I'm even going to do my Annual Catalogue Launch this way on Wednesday 3rd June 2020 at 10.30am BST. 



Our first class was based around the Neutrals Kit and we each created 3 cards using the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set and Early Espresso, Soft Suede and Crumb Cake Inks and Card.  I also added in the Label Me Bold Stamp Set for sentiments, but Sheila, Linda and Julie just used sentiment stamps they already had.  What I really loved with this class was getting such different looking cards as some used the same colour inks as me, others used whatever was on hand.  I really love the colour combination in Julie's cards.

Here are my finished cards - I've asked the ladies to post photos of their cards in the comments when they have finished them.  Please visit the comments and leave them all some love :-)

Get Your Craft On In May!!

I'm so excited to announce my first 'Class In The Mail' featuring the gorgeous Positive Thoughts Stamp Set to make 10 stunning projects designed by the oh-so-talented Liz Shannon.  She has kindly put these projects together to help fellow Demonstrators keep our businesses running during this uncertain time.



This class has a very short sign-up deadline (sorry for this but I want to get this class started asap) - you can find all the details including how to join the class on my Facebook Event Listing for the Positive Thoughts 'Class In The Mail'.  The class costs £32 for 4 kits (one for each of four Zoom sessions starting Saturday 2nd May) which contain all the cardstock, paper, die cuts and embellishments you need to complete 9 cards and a Pizza Box.  In addition you will need the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set which you can buy through my website - other products such as Ink you can either use what you already have at home, or there is a list of these items on the Facebook page which you can add to your online order.

The deadline for signing up is THURSDAY 23rd APRIL 2020 at 23.00 BST.  Places need to be booked and paid for by this time so that I have time to get in the supplies for the kits, get them cut and prepped, and then get them to you via the good 'ole Royal Mail service. Details for the Zoom sessions will be made available to you via a private FB Group where you can also chat to other participants.

Here are some close-ups of each week's projects:-
