We have dressed up our Australia chipboard with hotfoil! 

Use your metal plate under the foil then place your chipboard on top and cover with some scrap card.  Heat up really well and put through your embossing machine as usual. 

Hey Presto - it's transformed into something stunningl!!!


You can also do this with your regular card diecuts.

We love to use our products for as many projects as possible. 
If you bought the Nellie Incire die set last year for Christmas, you can use the outside die to cut a shape.
 (this is the star one)

We used the scalloped circle from another set for the white background shape on the pink card below!

Whether you like the traditional white and yellow or one of the more exotic colours the Frangapani flower is beautiful!

Using the Frangapani mini die (choice from this month's kit), we made 2 very different cards.

The yellow card has just the base shape for the white flowers and we coloured the centre with a yellow Tombow pen.
For the pink card, we double cut the flowers in pink and white and inlaid the petals in the opposite base shape and again coloured the centres with Tombow pens. Lovely.

(Sorry for the bad pun on the often mis-quoted 'Play It Again Sam' which should be 'Play It Sam' from the movie Casablanca)

This month we show our love for our marvellous country with all its unique animals and plants.
We've had so much fun using all the wonderful colours that represent the country.

  

We also continue with our kits while we can't meet for classes.
