Stampin' Up! Regional's Perth

Hi,

I had a fun time at Stampin' Up! Regionals in Perth last Saturday.  It was great to meet up with friends, learn some new techniques and see some new ideas.  We made some gorgeous Make and Take projects with a new stamp set and wheel and saw a few sneak peaks of products to come in the Summer Mini in December.  There were some great presentations from local demonstrator's and staff from Sydney and the US.

These are the four Make & Takes, a Card & Envelope, 6 x 6 Scrapbook page, a cute box with attached lid and a Trifold card.  I added a picture of my cute Grand daughter Kaela in her bathers to the Scrapbook page.  The ribbon tab is an insert for journaling behind the picture on the scrapbook page.

HOT TIP

Andrea Buckland had a fabulous Tip for everyone when cutting Whisper White cardstock.  If the card is rough on the edges when cut, place a sheet of A4 photocoping paper just underneath the card at the cutting point and the Whisper White will cut nicely and the photocoping paper will be ragged.  It also saves the life of your cutting blade.  I have tried the tip and it works beautifully, especially if you have a slightly crooked piece of card or you only need to remove a smidgen to straighten or trim.

Andrea also presented a workshop on using Bleach in our projects.
