Go For Greece September Blog Hop - Tranquil Textures Framed Art

Hi Crafters!

I am so excited to be hopping with the final Go For Greece Blog Hop for the Stampin' Up year & with some very good news - I earned Greece! Thank you so much to Kylie Bertucci for organising the group & giving so much support, and for all the speakers in the group & sharing so much of your wisdom. I highly recommend this training to not only earn the trip but also to build your business. Make sure you hop around the blog hop & leave a little love, you'll find the participants list under my pics.

I was lucky enough to receive these gorgeous flowers from my two uplines (Kylie & Kate), two sidelines (Missy & Linda) & one downline (Koren)! Thank you for spoiling me, ladies! And my house smells amazing!

I'm very excited I can take my husband away on a FREE trip for two, a week cruising through the Greek Isles & leaving from Rome, which is where we spent part of our honeymoon!

With the support of the Go For Greece Training Group, I was also able to launch my first stamp camp! I had six lovely ladies come along for two days of crafting fun, where we played with eight different suites. Come back over the next week or two as I show off all the samples.

Here was the piece de resistance! A beautiful home decor piece of framed art using the Tranquil Textures Suite of products.

I have stamped the background Octopi in Tranquil Tide ink & the popped up one (on Dimensionals) is stamped in Night of Navy on Soft Sea Foam cardstock. I have used the Precision Plate on the Big Shot to cut out all the little seaweed. There is also a die for the Octopus & stamps for the seaweed, but I just used the die cuts. The Die Brush also got used a lot to get the cuts out of the dies. I have used Crumb Cake, Night of Navy, Fresh Fig, Tranquil Tide & Soft Sea Foam for the die cuts.

I have used the Tranquil Textures Sprinkles for bubbles & sand along the bottom of the frame. I have also used the Copper & Rose Metallic Threads just in a mess all along the bottom of the page, then stuck the seaweed over the top. It adds a nice little bit of sparkle.

Did you know the Copper Trim is actually like a little tube? You can carefully poke your snips into the center & cut along one edge, then gently pull it open & it goes all wavy along the edge on it's own. There is also an Irredescent Boxwood Wreath uncoiled & used as seaweed. I've stapled it in place & then covered with seaweed die cuts & Sprinkles.

 
Here are all the lovely ladies with their creations.

And some close ups for you. I love how they are all unique.

We all had so much fun & I was so happy that I had the confidence to step out of my comfort zone & organise such a big craft event! I'm looking forward to holding more Stamp Camps in the future! I have already got some plans for a November Holiday Catalog Stamp Camp in Geelong & two January Occasions/Sale-A-Brations in Geelong & Loch, South Gippsland. Stay tuned for more info on that or feel free to email me if you're interested - jessie@jessieholton.com

Thank you Kylie for being an amazing inspiration, support & leader. You are the bomb! xx
