New stamp sets

Here are some samples from the new stamps sets.....

These two samples are from Bumble bear:-
I have paper pieced  the whole image and highlighted  the flower with wink of stella glitter pen  ( available from Hobby Art) The happy birthday image is from Craftwork Cards.Add a small black pearl for the nose.

)(

The next two are using the Bumble bear without the wings and the flower, and using the flower, stem, leaf and ladybug from Garden Set 1 .  All the images have been paper pieced and using pearls for the nose and inside of the flower. I have chalked the edges of the flower and decoupaged the flower.

I will post some more images tomorrow.

Ideas for the Decoupage Sheets

Here are some ideas using the decoupage sheets, all you have to do is follow the numbers on the printed sheet. This is the way you build up your decoupage.
I have used the Helidot papers WILLOW SPOT and chalked around the edges with a soft green.
The happy birthday message for the bee in a pot card is from Craftwork Cards.
I have finished the card using gold flat backed beads.  Really easy.

The second card the teddy in a circle has been made in a similar way again using Helidot papers BEE GINGHAM and chalked around the edges using a soft yellow.
Use an additional flower cut from the sheet on a sticky bud as a stopper.
This card is an easel card, and is also finished with flat backed gold beads.  Also very easy.

The next cards have been made by Wendy, she has used the decoupage sheets,
but has used them as toppers cutting around the teddies and using the extra heads as balloons.
She has used half a flower from the sheet for the girl teddy, and used the bees wing as the bib.
She has decoupaged the remaining head and feet.
Wendy has used theHelidot papers in the gingham BEE paper and finished with
the new text sheet and flat backed black pearls.  

Finally a little peak from one of the images from the stamp set Big Mice and Bunny Set......hopefully will be on sale in the next week along with lots of other new stamps,if you like Helidot you will love them.

Pop up Bees

These cards seem to be really popular at the moment, so I thought I would make one using the
Bee Peel offs, they are so easy to make they just require a little bit of time and patience.

We will be making a similar card to this on the Helidot weekend in July for all those that are coming
we have a few places left on the Sunday so if you are interested contact me for details.

It was lovely seeing everyone at Biggin Hill last weekend, and also to share ideas with new customers.

My new stamps will be available to buy very soon from the online shop.

A date for your dairy The Craft Barn June weekend 7-8 June. I will be there on the Sunday..
hope to see you there.

What a busy week its been, Monday we had a lovely day with Charry showing us how to use Pan pastels on a canvas not something I have ever done before but really enjoyed it.Thanks Charry for your inspiration.
Really looking forward to another arty day with you.

Then it was Sophie`s day making all her Easter presents, she loves to get in my cabin and spend time crafting. Well done Sophie everyone loved their present.

Jonnie made a lovely card which he drew freehand, he will save the card for Fathers Day he said.
Well done Jonnie, he admitted he enjoyed doing some crafting sometimes better than playing on the X Box all day, roll on the Summer holidays.

New Stickers

Hi Everyone,

As requested by lots of you that hate cutting out but love the Helidot designs we have made it very easy for you to create some of the cards using the new stickers.
This first set features the Bees and Bugs and I have created a single sheet of peel offs which compliment this set, this can be found and purchased from the online shop.
The Helidot papers will work very well with this set of stickers.

Here are a few examples of what you can do either using them flat or using them 3D, if you use them 3D its best to peel them off onto thin black card that way you won`t loose the black outline.  For extra dimension it is good to use pearls and jewels.

 

More cards and ideas very soon!! And more new products are on their way!!

Bee Happy,

Helen
