Welcome to this months Enjoy The Little Things In Life video blog hop.
We are sharing with you some of our favourite retiring items and hopefully giving you some inspiration to use your own stashed products as well.
 This month we have a special guest hopping with us, Jenny Hall.

Thank you very much Jenny for joining us this month, it's an honour to have you.

You are currently here with Kim Oliver ~ KOCreations Cards.

For my projects I have chosen to create with the retiring twin set stamp set called 'You've Got This'. I simply adore the elegant font and the gorgeous flower.

I am also using some of the retiring colours

The video sharing how I created the cards

I decided I would give 'voice over' a try for this video, so I could fast forward some as the video would have been nearly 35 minutes long  😱

Good Things

For You - Painted Harvest - #GDP102

Welcome Back everyone 😊

Today I have been playing with the Painted Harvest bundle. 

Believe me when I say I am not yet finished playing with this set either 😲 hahaha. I know I am going to be enjoying this set for a week or too, so my apologies in advance lol

Today's efforts are being entered into #GDP102 for this weeks challenge, pictured below.

For You 

#KOCreationscards #Paintedharvest #Sunflowers #Springtime #Inspiredbynature #Gardens #Flowers #Birthday #DIYgifts

The more I play with this set the more I fall in love with it! But I do adore flowers 😍
It could be that I am willing the spring weather to actually arrive with spring itself hahaha. It is still very cold here in Tassie and only some flowers are game enough to pop their heads above the earth and bloom.

Basic Directions

• Score the choc chip card stock at 14.8 cm then fold in half and cut at 10.5 cm.
• Splatter Soft Sky and Dapper Denim ink over bottom right corner of the whisper white card stock.
• Stamp the 2 step flower images in Dapper Denim with the centre images stamped in Sahara Sand and Chocolate Chip.
• Fussy cut your flower image and set aside for a moment.
• Stamp the 2 step leaf images in Lemon Lime Twist.
• Adhere the the flower over the splatter and leaf images with dimensionals.
• Tie the Linen thread around the white card stock and finish with a bow.
• Adhere this to the Lemon Lime Twist striped DSP using Tear and Tape.
• Then adhere the two layers to the Chocolate Chip card stock base.
• Adhere the inside layers together and place inside the card using the multipurpose glue.

*This really is a very simple card to create with basic techniques of 2 step stamping, fussy cutting and masking for the small sentiment.

This would be perfect for a beginners or even intermediate class. You could even incorporate the stepping up technique to show how to dress up or down designs..

I know my groups are certainly looking forward to playing with this set.
