Kylie's International Blog Hop August Theme Teachers Gift with Donna Gray Stampin Up!



Hello Welcome to the Kylie's August International blog highlight. My name is Donna Gray I come from a small suburb called Goonellabah which is situated in The Northern Rivers area of New South Wales in Australia. This is my first time blog hopping with the international blog hopper's so I am so excited as well as nervous to be joining this blog highlight. I hope you all like what I have made.

 The theme for this blog highlight was Teacher's gifts & my teacher's gift is not one of my own designs I have cased the design from Lea Denton from The Crafty Spark in the UK I did not design this myself so all the credits must go to Lea I have viewed a lot of projects similar to these on you tube that have been created by many demonstrators 

 This is a picture of my teacher's gift project. I tend to struggle with male designs but the Guy Greetings Stamp Set made my job a little easier This Stamp set is a current set from our annual 2017/2018 catalogue






I found this idea on you tube from
 The Crafty Spark You Tube Tutorial So I have included the link here to Lea Denton's tutorial. I put my own spin on her design by designing my own Designer paper by using the images from the guy greetings stamp set on Very Vanilla Card Stock using our Night Of Navy Ink Pad I made the base of the Desk Organizer from our Basic black Card Stock 
This desk organizer holds a large pad of sticky notes and has the year's calendar with a pen for jotting down those little things every teacher needs to remember for their day. The organizer will also fold down flat if the teachers needs to put it away in their desk over night.

Stampin Up! Lovely Floral Deep Impressions Embossing Folder & the Love What you do Stamp Set

You are going to love this Sponged Embossed Card using our new Lovely Floral Deep Impressions Embossing Folder..... This deep impressions embossing folder is to die for I so so love that you can do so many different things with it. I have enjoyed using either the embossed side or the debossed side. You can sponge it with daubers Ink it directly in the embossing folder & you can even use a sponge Brayer to get several different looks depending on what side of the embossed image you use So many uses I am sure you will not get tired of using this folder.... I have used a combination of The New In Colour Grapefruit Grove & Old Olive  with our Sponge Daubers to colour the lovely floral embossed image Make sure you don't have too much ink on your daubers as you only want a hint of colour on your embossed image This is a deep impressions embossing folder so remember to only use your base plate & 1 cutting pad to put your folder through the Big Shot Machine
