Crafters Companion The Big Score Board

Hello, Louise here,

look whats arrived at Sir Stampalot this week:

 

It is the Big Score by Crafters Companion.

I am loving this board and the CD-Rom that comes with it in our special bundle.

I have been having a little play and made the box that holds two 100g chocolate bars:

This is just one of the projects on the CD-Rom and was very easy to make.

You can use it just as a gift box but I do like the idea of chocolate

for a little thank you gift.

The board can be used for making simple boxes or more complex gift boxes.

You can score and make standard cards or create a fancy folding card.

 The board is double sided so you can work in metric or imperial 

and is A3 size for making those large projects.

Products I have used are -

Big Score Board 

Magnolia paper

Happy birthday die by presscut 

Butterfly die by memory box

Solid butterfly die by memory box

Spellbinders triple floral

Here Come the Girls

Last Saturday's class here at Sir Stampalot was lots of fun. Anne Hunt was teaching a class called "Here come the Girls", using the Hanna range of stamps and Crafter's Companion CD's for the backing papers.

There was a quick and easy card, using Hanna playing in the rain:

Then a couple of more complex cards:

Interesting effects using accordion fold paper to create a canopy for a shop window with Hanna out shopping. And also using a brayer to create a mirror image for glamorous "dress up" Hanna.

Then, the really involved masterpiece:

Second double page:

Using various techniques including good old fantasy fiber for the sensational dress, and self adhesive gems for the cute ear-rings and necklace:

Doesn't she look a stunner?

Although glamour Hanna is now sold out due to interest from the class, she will be back in stock again hopefully within the fortnight.

Thanks for a great class Anne.

================================

Well done to all those submitting cards for Brenda's MS cause, as mentioned in my last post. There's still plenty of time to send in cards to myself (Sir Stampalot), Brenda or Stamp Addicts, the fund raising event is being held on 28th June.

I just had to share with you all, the generosity of one of our lovely followers. This beautiful pile of cards was delivered by the postie the other day. Thanks Thelma from (Stoke-on-Trent).
