More goody's from the new mini catalogue

Hi, I have been a busy bee making lots of goody's some of them from the new mini catalogue which is launching on 1st April; here are some of the things I have made.


A scrapbook page using stamps from the new tiny tags set featured in the mini catalogue, as well as the eyelet border punch from the main catalogue and some sweet pea paper from the new design series paper stack in the mini.



This card is something quite different to any thing I have ever seen before, it's a sweet treats card and does exactly what it says. mine has chocolate fudge in it but for those that do not eat chocolate it can also be filled with other items such as sweets, seeds etc. It also features a tiny tag stamp and the new tiny tag punch in a new shape that is much more compact and easier to store.

The following card has been made using the new Vintage Vogue stamp set,one of my favourites from the mini with some more lovely paper from the sweet pea paper stack in the mini. Also featuring a designer flower brad from the main catalogue and some kraft taffeta ribbon also from the main catalogue.

If you would like to be one of the first see the new mini catalogue I can send you one out for free, just use the link to your left to contact me with your details and I will get one in the post to you as soon as possible.

I'll be back again soon with some lovely easter gifts.

Thanks for looking!

I've been busy!

Hi guys

I have been very busy over the past couple of weeks, mainly making cards but I did manage to do a bit of scrapbooking at the crop last weekend.

I have a full calendar of birthdays this month so found myself making quite a few along with Mothersday cards and 30 swaps too. I have so many projects I want to do but even though I am at home all day I still don't seem to be able to get much done in a day.

I think this card has to be one of my favourites so far, the stamps are Stampin' Up along with the card stock, I used the cuttlebug "Victoria" embossing folder and some ribbon from my stash. did'nt want to give it away really but needs must!



This next card was made using the retired Natures Wonders stamp set, one of my very first purchases from Stampin' Up. I have again teamed it with a cuttlebug folder "Herringbone" and some Stampin' Up ribbon.


And lastly one of my Scrap pages of my "Little Princess" she has just begun Ballet lessons as was only too happy to pose in her new outfit.

I have made a few other cards but did not want to bore you with them all, but look out for them on the slide show to your left.
