Here are the rest of the cards that we made on Saturday.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am only giving a short description with each card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Remember to spray the pink pattern paper with the glue and then </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
place the tissue paper over it. Use a decoupage roller to secure the </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
two papers. Then spray the pink paper with glimmer mist.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI_tqGMzc21ARjZSL07si6SsS-cNdEJ0JMfbwZj06cgS8KYf6PifBqu6ZLCHqbmf6rPFf-ZB6Yz3ThCD1l-N1UpejsAiIKuP8hGWsHOeVFlCtAIftKMuH5-WFa1olpDIxSsXxC5CGdae2H/s1600/DSCN1582.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgI_tqGMzc21ARjZSL07si6SsS-cNdEJ0JMfbwZj06cgS8KYf6PifBqu6ZLCHqbmf6rPFf-ZB6Yz3ThCD1l-N1UpejsAiIKuP8hGWsHOeVFlCtAIftKMuH5-WFa1olpDIxSsXxC5CGdae2H/s320/DSCN1582.JPG" width="315" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Dye the seam binding tape with an ink.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We used Dylusions ink spray.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For a more subtle colour, wash out most of the ink before you let it dry.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The doily was first sprayed with glimmer mist</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and when it was dry we sprayed the back with glue.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is just easier to stick it down. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Nothing fancy on this card, just spray the doily with glue and stick it down.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlVafo_3c1zKFvvztIzzUaTnqVCpbLvF5af4ESaf3TKWTilQpRhSgfwaAI6CLbVqly7YeVMWzMEIcU5JN7WYHUcCrrrlBerrb4TdbN9FUW_l2ydit6H50yC3JzpEndoKXul2mSkBneoecS/s1600/DSCN1586.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="314" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlVafo_3c1zKFvvztIzzUaTnqVCpbLvF5af4ESaf3TKWTilQpRhSgfwaAI6CLbVqly7YeVMWzMEIcU5JN7WYHUcCrrrlBerrb4TdbN9FUW_l2ydit6H50yC3JzpEndoKXul2mSkBneoecS/s320/DSCN1586.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Use tissue tape to make the washi tape that fits around the bottom of the envelope.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First ruffle the tissue paper and then place it on the double sided tape.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Place the ruffle on the stripy paper and put it inside the envelope.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tie the seam binding ribbon and the bakers twine around the pink paper </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and the envelope.</div>

Handmade gift wrap,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
huge paper flowers, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
paper bunting,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Washi tape notepads and gift bags...... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
these are a few of my favourite things....<br />
and we made them all during our class on Saturday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixAD_c0pPQBc8l7rxQvWfA1J9wkFHowQBZi7ip5PCDmnPZDabyY0hvXTqkd4O-cMKbf1N6yYwz4m6VoIVZqK_sJWFkD5Aa7f7hEq3YbLdHVRXhOOhR1JIb0IirH1enzEzmBO2Ns0mVBHVG/s1600/DSCN1292.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixAD_c0pPQBc8l7rxQvWfA1J9wkFHowQBZi7ip5PCDmnPZDabyY0hvXTqkd4O-cMKbf1N6yYwz4m6VoIVZqK_sJWFkD5Aa7f7hEq3YbLdHVRXhOOhR1JIb0IirH1enzEzmBO2Ns0mVBHVG/s400/DSCN1292.JPG" width="252" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These boxes and flowers are some of the easiest and </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
most stunning projects to make for Christmas. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Do them in any colour combo you like</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and make the flowers really BIG.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When making your bunting, ensure that the </div>
<div align="center">
paper you use as backing, is strong enough.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Before you make the fold to cover the string, </div>
<div align="center">
you can also put down a piece of double sided tape<br />
on that fold (but don't remove the backing).</div>
<div align="center">
This will prevent the string from pulling through your paper.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Many uses for one product, that is my kind of product.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Buy a ready made notepad. Cut a sturdy craft cardstock<br />slightly bigger than the notepad.<br />
Do your scoring and folding.<br />
Then make some washi tape or use ready made ones.<br />
For this note pad, we made washi tape from tissue tape,<br />
crinkle paper, a serviette (napkin) and some<br />
<a href="http://timholtz.com/prod_cat/paperie/"><span style="color: #0b5394;">Tim Holtz tissue wrap</span></a>.<br />
So much fun and so easy to work with.<br />

The last project on the day was to use up all the self made</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
washi tape and decorate Christmas favour bags,</div>

The craft caddy is so handy! On the photos you can see how I made the second one as a gift for a baby and the first one as a general storage space.<br />
<br />
You can use it for your TV remotes, salt, pepper and salad dressings - just place it all in your caddy and put it down on your table. You will most definitely be the talk of the party!<br />
<br />
In addition to the craft caddy you will make Beaded flowers as well.<br />

We all really enjoyed the class on Saturday. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had to do some preparation at home, a few days before the class. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because the canvas has not been pre-washed, I had to</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lay them in water for at least half an hour so that the fibers could soak up the water.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then on Saturday morning, they had to go back into the water before the class. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Receiving a damp bag for the class was quite a surprise. But then the fun started, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
choosing the colours, painting the bag, watching the colours blend and migrate, stamping </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the image and then lastly, doing the stitching. </div>

We are in the middle of the winter and as the days are starting to get longer and the nights shorter I decided to do a post on a project that I did for Craftwise magazine to promote my book <a href="http://www.metzpress.co.za/books/book-details/scrap-it/">Scrap it!</a> in 2011. To my surprise the project was chosen as the front cover item for that particular issue. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5yWGr9EBobQ/T_GpOkWMn3I/AAAAAAAAABU/w-_P5oi-lC0/s1600/80+front+cover+Julie+Aug+2011.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5yWGr9EBobQ/T_GpOkWMn3I/AAAAAAAAABU/w-_P5oi-lC0/s320/80+front+cover+Julie+Aug+2011.jpg" width="251" /></a></div>
Since then I received numerous request for the actual how-to of the box. The idea of the box is to store all your sewing / crafting / stationary in an organised and pretty box somewhere in your home. Instead of getting a box that you stick into a cupboard because it might not be appealing to the eye - with this quick and easy step-by-step instructions you could make your own masterpiece.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Hi Papier Plesier crafters!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am sipping an aroma filled cappuccino while I type this
blog post for you! I am super excited to share the news that our Papier Plesier
classes are really in demand and I decided to make some easy and quick invitations
for friends who would like to invite their friends or work colleagues before
all the seats are filled!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tIE5wG5Q0HE/T8-RmSFBgsI/AAAAAAAAABA/EMNRfHw0tbY/s1600/Generiese+uitnodiging.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tIE5wG5Q0HE/T8-RmSFBgsI/AAAAAAAAABA/EMNRfHw0tbY/s320/Generiese+uitnodiging.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You will need plain brown or white manila envelopes, dazzles
or tattered angels glimmer mist, chalk and doilies!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The first step is to “bedazzle” your doily! I laid mine out
on my favourite PINK Fiskars craft mat and sprayed the doilies pink with the
Dazzle spray. Let it dry for a few minutes and then I folded it in half. I then
adhered the bedazzled doily heart to the envelope.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I then used my Making memories Alphabet stamp set and
stamped the word Papier Plesier onto the doily. Finally I typed up all the
information of the event and printed it onto cardstock.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I then used my Cuttlebug machine with one of the dies and
cut out a card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fUzgOsaYWB8/T8-TJcxWvwI/AAAAAAAAABI/b8p3y7nUctQ/s1600/generiese+uitnodiging+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fUzgOsaYWB8/T8-TJcxWvwI/AAAAAAAAABI/b8p3y7nUctQ/s320/generiese+uitnodiging+2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I added ribbon and placed the invitation into the envelope!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I can now hand it out to all who will be attending!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Make sure to book your seat for the next Papier Plesier
class.</div>

Hi everyone</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is my current huge "thing".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wish that I could let you in on the gorgeous smell of these Soy Wax Candles. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have scented them with Rooibos and Vanilla. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(These will be on sale, Saturday)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Candles gives instant atmosphere, and here is a candle wax that you can use on your skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. It is a moisturizer and loaded with vit E and lecithin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. It is Eco friendly. (other candles are made of paraffin wax)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. The wax melts at 39°C and is absorbed by your skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

My ritual is: Light the candle before having your bath at night. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then when you are all done and ready for bed, blow out the flame.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pool of melted wax is then big enough to use on your feet, elbows and hands.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Over the weekend I turned my studio into a candle making factory </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and they are now all ready to be decorated and packaged.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For all of those who has booked for the classes on Saturday, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you will be able to sample this gorgeous product. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Keep well.

Position and reposition every piece of paper, so that your layout make sense.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is something to welcome you to our blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can buy this document holder at most big stationary supplies stores. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have altered mine to keep my travel documents in one place. <br />

<span style="font-size: large;">After the huge success of <a href="http://betweencupcakesandtea.blogspot.com/2011/10/pre-christmas-inspiration-class.html" style="color: #a64d79;">our event on 29 October last year</a>, a number of our "groupies" urged us to have more get-togethers where they will have an opportunity to "play with paper".</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So Elna, Jaclyn and I put our heads together and decided to do just that!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The result - Papier Plesier...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">(For the benefit of our English-speaking readers - <i>Paper Pleasure</i>) </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><span style="font-size: large;">Our schedule for 2012 is as follows:</span></u></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Creating the header for our new blog had to be done within a few hours. It helps if you have a "picture" in mind. So I sat down, started rolling paper and taking photographs.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I won't show you the original photo...... but thanks goodness for Picasa 3!!</span></div>
