Pinwheel Gift Bag

Hello, and welcome to my blog!

Today I've made this cute little pinwheel gift bag/pouch. I made this version to fit a coffee bag and I'll be making smaller ones to hold herbal tea bags as customer thank-you gifts.

I used the envelope punch board to score the diagonal folds that you need to make the pouch. I've been working on a way to make one without needing a punch board and if I get it all worked out I'll share it in a future tutorial. For now, though, here's how I made this pouch.

So quick and easy, isn't it?

Keep crafting!

Daisy, Daisy...

...the coppers are after you!

Well, that's what the naughty boys used to sing to the tune of Daisy Bell when I was a child!

I am very impressed with how realistic the flowers made with the Daisy punch can be. This time I made marguerites, rather than gerberas, and popped them into a bottle. Isn't that gingham ribbon so clean and fresh-looking? And see that tag? The stamp, and punch, are in the new, just launched catalogue!

Here's the tutorial - with me speaking this time. The feedback from the music-only one was that viewers preferred to hear me babbling away, so I shall continue to babble unless you tell me otherwise.

Have you got your copy of the new catalogue yet? You can see a pdf version by clicking the picture at the bottom of the page. (Want a "real" copy? Get in touch with your demonstrator - if you don't have one, I'll be happy to help!)

See you again soon,

Flower Power

Hello, and welcome!

I am so happy to be sharing today's project with you at long last. Why? Well, all because the Daisy punch is, at last, back in stock.

One of the great perks of being a SU demo is the we get to see the new stuff before everyone else and we can order some of it ahead of time (plus we get it at a discount - you just can't go wrong!). We all went WILD for the Daisy punch, so wild that it sold out almost before the annual catalogue went live.

So I've been holding on to mine, just waiting for the stock to come back so that you can get yours too.

I love making paper flowers. This is supposed to be a Gerbera. (Did you know that you can pronounce it with a hard or soft "G"? I didn't, but you can!)

Anyway, enough waffling on from me. See you again soon!

Crafty Hugs,

Keren.

Daisy Springer Card

Hello everyone, and welcome.

I've been waiting and waiting to demonstrate with the Daisy punch. I got mine in the demonstrator pre-order before the catalogue launch. I think every other Stampin' Up! demonstrator did as well, because SU ran out of punches. The result was a serious shortage until such time as SU could re-stock. And they are made overseas...

Anyway, I decided not to tease you by showing you projects with items you couldn't get - but I just can't hold back any longer. In case you're wondering, the punches are due in stock soon. (The moral of the story is - there are some BIG advantages to being a demonstrator - and especially to joining in July 2017)

Springer cards are lots of fun and really easy to make. Here's how I made this one -
