I just spent the last two days at a Sanzi Craft Tools Workshop in Auckland doing loads of fun stuff with Cricut and Cuttlebug toys! Janet came up from Christchurch to go to the workshop too and we had a ball... apart from the crafting, we had a group dinner at an Italian restaurant complete with opera singers! Wonderful dinner, entertainment and crafting inpsiration. We met some lovely people too, including the great Sanzi staff.
I am just learning how to put photos on my blog, so I will soon post pics of all the fun things we made AND the lovely stash of stuff we got in our goodie bags. Thanks Sanzi.
This is a demo card I made recently for the monthly challenge for May on CardMakingWorld. The theme is a shaped card other than square or rectangular. I used Nestie dies to cut the cards and papers making lots of layers, stamped a greeting, then added punched flowers and leaves. An organza ribbon and a bit of bling finished it off.
