Revised card club...

2012-02-15T12:05:00.001Z

Hello Ladies,

I would like to hear your thoughts on my idea for the card club i run each month. I will still be doing the 3 cards using the same stamp set for all 3 of them but, i will also include the stamp set so that if you would like to you could reproduce the cards at home or design your own of cause; Or i could include the card stock/paper and any other embellishments that have been used.

I would keep the cost to a minimum as far as i can and if i were to run this card club i would only charge £5 for the class as well as the cost of the stamp set or paper/ embellishments and if you placed an order for £20 or more you would have the class free. ( you would still have to pay for the stamps etc)

Be good to hear what you think about this.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post.

Have you seen Stampin' Ups new jewellery range? It's stunning, & the best thing about it is that you get to design it. With just a few stamps you can create something unique to you just like this necklace... And you can also create a bracelet with the smaller ones & add the to the bracelet chain, add some of Stampin Up beads &you have a unique bracelet like mine.

Why not get some friends together & have a workshop, i can show you how i created my Necklace & Bracelet. It couldn't be a better time to have a workshop with the Sale a bration on.

Card club

2012-01-27T23:40:00.001Z

Sorry folks there will be no card club this weekend due to other myself having other commitments, it will resume again on 25th February, if you wish to place an order before then please don't hesitate to email or phone me.
Don't forget that Sale a Bration has begun so for every £45 you spend you will receive a free stamp set or pack of designer series papers and the first person to place a qualifying order will receive a free gift from me too.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Sorry for my absence...

2012-01-05T14:28:00.001Z

Hello every one and a Happy New Year to you all,

I must apologise for my absence over the past few weeks.

I had been so busy with the build up for Christmas, and just as we thought we were sorted and done all the visiting to family, my father-in-law was taken ill. We had driven to Swindon on the Sunday before Christmas to see them, little did we know we would have to travel several times again in that week. He was so lucky to be found in Asda by an off duty Army Paramedic who began CPR immediately and for 25mins before my Father-in-law was brought back to life and taken to hospital.He finally came home on New Years Day! It was such a worry knowing that he had gone for all that time but he came out of it fine.

Now onto some better news, The new spring mini catalogue has been launched today, this will run from today (4th Jan) until 30th April. We have not had a spring mini before so I am more excited than usual.

I have been working on one or two projects recently so that I could give you some inspiration for some of the new products, The first one is a shopping list folder, the outside of it is covered in the lovely Spice Cake fabric, with some of the lovely velvet designer ribbon, and a stamped Triple Treat Flower from the main catalogue finished off with a vintage brad and a Trinket Key...

The inside is covered with the Spice Cake designer series papers as well as the jumbo buttons. Very pretty.

The left side has a consertina pouch so it can hold your receipts, and the right side has a note pad and Stampin' Up! pen

This card has been imbossed with the Elegant Bouquet emboss folder and carefully touched with some of the champaign ink, the flower is cut using the Fun Flower Bigz die with a jumbo button threaded with some Chantilly Vintage Lace.

This was going to be a Christmas Wreath but I did not get the chane to start it before Christmas so I decided to make it as a bedroom wreath instead. I have used the Candy Cane Christmas fabric for this and I am quite pleased with how it turned out.

If you would like a copy of the New Spring Mini catalogue drop me an email and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

Gift Vouchers for Christmas...

2011-11-30T16:43:00.000Z

It's often difficult to know what to buy a fellow crafter for Christmas for fear of buying something they already have, well I have the answer to that;

Why not buy them a Gift voucher, they are presented in a hand made card so could double up as a Christmas card too. The voucher can be from £5 upto whatever you wish, and it makes your life easier as you don't have to hunt the shops for something.

If you would like to purchase one of my vouchers please send me an email with the details along with your name and address and I will do the rest.

Last week I promised to upload some more images from the Convention, well these are some of the projects some of the demonstrators sent in especially for the Convention.

There were some fab projects there so I found it almost impossible to choose a favourite.

I did'nt think to look and see who made these, sorry guys!

Thanks for looking! x

Hello all you lovely blog readers,

I have had the most amazing time at this years Stampin' UP! convention, it was held at Disneyland Paris and was my first experience of a convention. I was also lucky enough to have my husband with me as my carer so it was all the more special for me.

I received lots of goodies while I was there, some that I bought from the momento mall and some that were gifts as well as lots of swaps for inspiration; Keep an eye out as I plan to upload some of my favourites over the next few days for you to see.

Love this canvas

Catalogue launch open House

2011-09-26T16:42:00.000+01:00

I will be holding my Open House event on the 1st October at my house, between 2 and 4.30pm there will be lots of the new goodies/inspiration to look at, a prize draw, plus some retired stamp sets at knock down prices, and a Christmas make and take for you.

I will have new catalogues to purchase for the reduced price of £4 (RRP £5.95) or get one free when you place an order for £150+ or if you join one of my Hostess club or book a workshop for October.

Come and find out how you can earn Hostess pounds and catalogue items at half price.

Last chance list...

2011-09-25T17:13:00.000+01:00

New Catalogue

The time for the new Stampin' Up catalogue is fast approaching (1st October) and Stampin' Up has released the retired list for the current catalogue. Lots of items are going including patterned paper so if any of the items are your favourites, get your hands on them now as once they are gone they are gone! The link above will take you to the current list of retired items available and will be updated daily -
All current hostess stamps sets will no longer be available when the new catalogue is launched. But there is still time to get your hands on them. Just book and hold a workshop in September (or make sales over £150+) and choose your favourite for the last time, I will even pay for your p&p for any orders this month.

Become a demonstrator

It's a great time for anyone wishing to become a demonstrator, there is a lot of excitement with the launch of the new catalogue and you don't have to meet the minimum quarterly sales requirement of £270 until December. Although I am sure that won't be a problem. The price of the starter kit is even lower now too at £119. I would love you to join my team and am always happy to share ideas and answer any questions you may have. If like me you would love so much from the catalogue becoming a demonstrator is a great way of getting the products at a discount. You don't have to hold workshops but if you would like to there is so much opportunity and so much fun and rewards to be had.

Coming soon

I will be taking pre-orders for the new catalogue very soon so watch this space but in the meantime I am selling off a limited supply of the recent Idea Book and Catalogue for £3 each instead of the usual £5.95. It is definitely worth keeping a copy if you haven't got one already as they are a great resource of ideas and colour combinations. I only have a few catalogues so please get in touch asap to get hold of yours.

Enjoy what is left of the warm weather, it's lovely and warm here!

Thanks for passing bye.

Hello peeps,

Well what a busy time I have had this month & it's not over yet. I had to prepare for our Silver Wedding Anniversary party at the beginning of the month; I made all of my guest invitations a banner to decorate the buffet table & now I am making lots of thank you cards. We had lots of old friends travel far & wide to come & celebrate with us and we also had lots of lovely gifts. It was great to see all our friends all together.

And then we had the retirement list for the present Stampin' Up! catalogue and us demonstrators have also seen the new catalogue, we have been able to purchase a few items from the new book so we can prepare for the launch; so I have also been trying to make up some samples in preperation for my Open day. (more on that soon).

I have a few of the current catalogues so if you would like one they have lots of inspiration inside; I am selling them for £2.50, if you would like one please email.

This weekend is card club, if you would like to come and make a start on your Christmas cards can you please let me know by Thursday night at the latest. For more information about my card club please click on the monthly card club tab under the blog title.

Projects to share...

2011-08-22T12:25:00.000+01:00

Hello friends,

I thought I would share a couple of the projects I have been making; the box frame was made using 3 stamp sets from Stampin' Up!, they are Just Believe, Clearly for you and Fox and Friends. The Bird on the outside of the frame is from the Noteably Ornate stamp set. Sorry about the glare on the glass, "could'nt do anything about it".

The Grass, flowers and birds have been decoupaged to give the picture some dimention.

The colours used were: - Bashful Blue, Crumb Cake and Not quite Navy cardstock, The flowers are Riding hood red with Old Olive leaves and stems, the other greenery is Always Artichoke. I have also used Baja Breeze, River Rock, Early Espresso and Cajun Craze.

The picture below is a canvas that I have painted with green acrylic paint then covered with some paper from the Brights Designer series paper patterns stack from Stampin' Up! I have then used the flourish from the Barogue Motifs stamp set also from Stampin' Up!

I then used the new Fun flower Bigz Dies to decorate the front and added the filigree brads also from Stampin' Up! The sentiment in the middle is from my stash. I tiopped it with some of Stampin' Up! 3.2cm wide striped grosgrain ribbon. A very simple project.

I have decided not to run this months card club as Most of you are away or spending time with family due to the bank holiday; All will resume as normal next month on September 25th.

Thanks for looking!

Card Club...

2011-07-26T13:26:00.001+01:00

Hello Friends,

This month seems to have slipped by with out me realising, which means it's time for card club again on Saturday

30th July.

Can you please let me know if you will be coming by Thursday evening the latest please to allow me time to prepare your kit.

Usual applies with orders over £20 or if you bring a friend, and as always there will be refreshments.

Incase it has slipped your mind, can I remind you that time is almost up for signing up for the crafting for Christmas day to be held on 14th August; further information for this can be found on a previous post.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward to seeing you at the weekend.

Sue

2011-07-13T11:46:00.001+01:00

Can you beleive it's only 165 days until Christmas, plenty of time yet do I hear you cry; well it's surprising how quickly those days will fly, so why not get a head start on some of those presents, not only are these unique but receiving a hand made gift is always so much nicer than something bought and the recipient will know how much extra effort went into their gift.

You've seen the flip books posted previously, well hear is another gift that we will be making, it's a card with a difference because it holds a gift within it. I have made a Christmas card which holds 3 tealite candles and some sachets for a special bathtime, or there is the Baby card that holds a flannel and some Baby bath. Making them both an inexpensive gift card for a friend or work colleague.

Both cards are made using the same papers as the flip books, so if you wanted to you could give both as a matching gift.

Booking and payment for the class must be made by 25th july either by cheque, cash or paypal, an account is not required to make a payment via paypal just a credit or debit card.

So come on ladies what are you waiting for, sign up today and you will be in for a great day of crafting with great company, I may even throw in some chocolate!

Crafting for Christmas...

2011-07-04T13:48:00.008+01:00

Hello friends, thanks for dropping by again, today I want to tell you more regarding my crafting for Christmas event I will be holding in August; In a previous entry I showed a Christmas flip book, well I have eventually finished the baby book, I did a pink one as both of my Grandchildren are girls but there will be the option to do it in blue if that is your preference.

I have a further 2 projects for us to make on the day but I have not decided if I will share it on my blog or keep it as a surprize on the day; All projects we make on the day can be given as a gift.

The craft day will be held on 14th & 21st August if I have enough people taking part, and we will begin the day at 10am and hopefully be finished by 4pm.

Refreshments will be provided but you will need to bring your own lunch as well as some basic tools, more on this when you are signed up.

Cost of the class will be £25 and Payment for the class must be made no later than 25th July along with your choice of flip book you wish to make. I can except cash or cheque but my preferred method of payment is Paypal for which you do not need to have an account just a credit or debit card. I have mmade it easier for you and added a Paypal button, don't forget to let me know your preference when ordering.
Thank you for your interest

Card Club...

2011-06-20T15:27:00.000+01:00

It's almost the end of the month again and this means it is time for my monthly card club; As I had to cancel it last month at short notice we will be making the unusual card that I advertised on my blog last month,I was shown how to make the basics of this card earlier this year while on my cruise, I have never seen anything like it before so I have designed one for us to make using the build a blossom stamp set and punch as well as 2 other cards using 2 more different stamp sets.
I really hope you can join us to make this unique card; all materials will be provided along with the tools but, if you do have a favourite pair of scissors you like to use or a particular adhesive you prefer feel free to bring that along too. I will also be providing refreshments. Please see the Monthly card club tab above for prices and special offers.
Please email mail me by Thursday evening the latest if you would like to come along and I will tell you where it is being held.
Hope to see you there.

Thanks for reading this blog post!

Hello all you lovely blog readers,

2011-06-17T17:07:00.000+01:00

I know I said that I would be back, so here I am, it just took a little bit longer than a few days as I have not only been very busy with my new puppy but I have had a weeks worth of trouble trying to get online with no success; it is all sorted now I hope so should not cause any more bother.

So, this is what I wanted to tell you; I am planning a whole day of crafting in August and have been working hard to find some lovely projects for you all to make on the day. This is one of the projects we will be doing;
I have made this flip album as Christmas gift but it does not have to be Christmas it can be for a new baby, a special Birthday or any subjects you want it to be. (I am in the middle of making a new baby album and will put it on the blog when it is finished).

All of the products are Stampin Up except for the O-wire and Bind-it-all to punch the holes.

I have used several different stamp sets inside the book.

Look out for my next entry when I should hopefully have finished my next album and have a bit more news regarding the full day of crafting with me. Thanks for looking!

Meet my new companion...

2011-06-01T10:29:00.000+01:00

Hello and welcome to flaming June where we should expect to see lots of warm sunshine, well we can all dream can't we!

I am sorry I have not blogged for a while but I have been rather busy looking after Prince my 11 week old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, he is absolutely adorable and is always getting up to things he should'nt; it is hard work trying to keep up with the toilet training etc and he loves to chew my shoes and any clothing I am wearing at the time.

I have also been giving my craft room a good clear out so it is almost impossible to do any kind of crafting at the moment. I had'nt realised how much stuff I had, and alot of it I have had for several years so I think it may be time to give it a new home.

Anyway guys, I really should get on and get my room back into shape, but keep an eye on my blog in the next few days as I will be advertising something new that could interest you. Until then here is a photo of my gorgeous babe.

It's almost time for Card Club again...

2011-05-12T14:47:00.000+01:00

Hello crafters,

First I should apologise for the lack of posts since my last card club, I am not feeling too well again at the moment and have found it difficult to find any mojo or energy, I'm hoping it will not last too much longer as I fear I will get too far behind and never catch up!

Anyway that aside, I have decided to bring the card club forward a week to the 22nd May as it will be a bank holiday at the end of the month; This month we will be making the usual 3 cards but one of them will be quite unusual so, if you would like to know how to make this unique card why not book a place for this months card club and find out how to make it. Don't forget if you have not been before you can have the class for £6 and if you place an order of £20 or more on the day you can have a further discount of £5, so potentially you could pay just £1 to make 3 cards not bad hey!

Just drop me an email to scure your place and I will look forward to seeing you there.

Here is a sneak peak of the unique card we will be making...

Card Club...

2011-04-27T11:21:00.000+01:00

Good Morning friends,

I am sorry this is late this month, the bank holiday has really messed my week up; I just wanted to remind you that my monthly card club is on Sunday, as usual we will be maling 3 projects using the new baby blossoms stamp set, I love this set it has a vintage feel to it.

So if you fancy an afternoon of crafting with good company just send me a quick email by Friday the latest to give me time to prepare your kit.

Cost of the afternoon will be £10 unless you bring a friend or it is your first time then it will cost you £6 each and if you place an order on the day of £20 or more you can do the class for £5, so effectivly you could do the class for a £1.

So as time is short this month don't delay, get your email sent and be prepared for a n afternoon of fun and laughter as well as tea & cake.

Hope to see you soon,

Sue x

2011-04-01T13:45:00.000+01:00

I will be there with my Stampin Up products, but there will be lots of different stalls with many different crafts.

Why not come along and see what there is, you never know you may like something, or at least you could get some inspiration.

It would be great to see as many friends there as possible to celebrate the hard work these people do.

Look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on 12th March

Scrapbooking classes...

2011-02-27T17:15:00.000Z

Scapbooking has become very popular in the UK over the past 5 years or so and I am planning to start my own scrapbooking classes in March, and I would love you to join us in learning more about this fabulous hobby, you may like to learn new techniques for your pages or need some inspiration, or perhaps you would just like to scrap with like minded people and make new friends. what ever your reason you will always have a warm welcome.

Classes will be on a wednesday evening between 7-10pm. Refreshments will be provided.

If you bring a friend (that has not been before) you can have the class for half price, and if you spend £25 or more from the Stampin Up catalogue (before the class so you can collect it at the class) or you place an order on the day you can also have the class for half price

I will be using mostly Stampin' Up! products but on the odd occasion I may need to use other items because of the layout I've chosen.

I hope to keep the cost of the class to a minimum but it may vary, so some months it could cost a little more due to the materials used.

I will also be offering this as a stand a lone kit for those that cannot attend the class, in this case there will be a further charge for Post & Package and payment can be made via Paypal or cheque. Please advise me of your payment method when ordering.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
I send you an email confirming your place and letting you know what size and how many photographs you'll need for your class. You then email me your photos by the Monday before the class along with your payment via Paypal, so that I can select complementary colours for you and can prepare your kit.

So all you need to do is send me an email to get the ball rolling and I will reply by giving you the amount of photo's and if they should be portrait or landscape. If you need me to print your photograph for you that's fine but there will be an extra cgarge of 50p per photo. Payment should be made via Paypal by Monday as well or you can send me a cheque or drop the cash in before the class. Please ask for my address if you wish to post your payment.

So the date for the first Scrapbook class is to be on Wednesday 16th March between 7-10pm.

Hope to see you soon....

How much do you like Stampin' Up products/

2011-01-20T18:24:00.000Z

Do you love Stampi' Up products and have a large wish list that Santa did not fulfill, The best and cheapest way to get those items on your list is to become a demonstrator;
This is the best time of the year to join Stampin Up. The newly reduced starter kit is only £119 and you can choose over £230 worth of products so you are already winning by £120. AND becuase it's sale-a-bration Stampin are giving you another stamp set of your choice free too. You can choose any stamp set from the catalogue up to the value of £44.95. That means you can get your hands on £164 worth of free products!! If you love stamps, you will never run short again and in the first 6 months you can earn 15 free stamp sets of your choice!

You could come and join me and my team of Pink Ladies/Pink Lad and I will give you a little welcome kit too to get you started. Included is a personalised notebook and pen, a cardstock sample swatch and a 20 page booklet with all the basics to get you started with Stampin Up.

Everyone is welcome to join from hobby demo's who wish to purhcase products for themselves to people focused on earning money and turning their love of crafting into a business.
If you join Stampin Up now you would have till the end of June to reach the £250 quarterly minimum sales target (£250 net = £300 inc VAT) and in April Stampin Up launches the mini catalogue so there will be lots more products you have to have!!

You can swap and change items for the same type but in a different style or colour and I would be happy to send some more information to you or answer any questions you may have.
I will not pressure you to join Stampin Up, the choice is yours......
I hold regular meetings/training and all are welcome, you dont need to be business focused just a wish to spend time with other like minded crafters and have fun.

Last minutes Christmas gifts...

2010-12-07T11:39:00.000Z

The design of the card was from one of my fellow stampin Up demonstrator Monica Gail, the image is on her blog.

This is a £15 gift voucher that can be redeemed only through me, so if you are stuck for a present to the crafter in your life this may be just what are looking for; It comes in a pretty card ready to hang on the tree and if you need to post it I have included an envelope. The voucher can be of any denomination.

This is a writing set and it includes some decorated sheets of A5 paper, some envelopes to match, a decorated pen and a little holder for postage stamps all put together to make an inexpensive gift for a work colleague or teacher.

This was a plain black diary that has been cover with scrap book papers, a bit of ribbon, some chip board letters and a pretty flower embellishment. Another great gift for a colleague or teacher.

Here is one of the desk calendars that I made a few months ago, this would also make a great littles gift for somebody.

Below is a box of cards, 3" x 3", these would be ideal as a gift again for the teacher or work colleague. They are very sweet!

If you would like any of these gifts email me your choice and the latest date for you to receive them. Any of them can be made in a clour of your choose.

Thanks for looking!

New Catalogue launch...

2010-10-01T13:50:00.002+01:00

It has finally arrived, and if you haven't got your copy yet here is the link to the online issue just brimming with lots of fantastic new goodies to fill your wish list, even better why not get in touch and book a workshop and give yourself the opportunity to earn some of these fab goodies, I still have a few dates left for October!

We have 14 new punches in the new space savour design like the bird punch.

We have introduced clear mount stamps for those that have space saving issues, they only take up as much room as a DVD but they are still the same great quality you get with all Stampin Up products. And they are a bit cheaper to buy so you can have a bit extra for another stamp set.

We have some beautiful new colours too, 5 are the new In colours and then there are the 4 newly renovated colour families. All of which I think work so much better with each other. We have also introduced new colour kits to buy to make it easier for you to update your new colour families. click here to see them.

And then there is the colour coach, such a great tool to help you put colours from any of the families together. It gives you all of the colour families, plus the new in colours and at least 2 colour combinations for each colour. I haven't stopped using mine since I got it and it's worth every penny!

So if your wish list is rather large why not consider joining one of my virtual clubs, there will be spaces starting November. get in touch now to reserve a space and get free goodies while you buy the things you want.

2010-09-19T19:02:00.008+01:00

Sorry to say I am not aloud to show you these until the New Idea Book and Catalogue has launched on the first of October so watch this space!

The new Hostess stamp sets are to die for and I for one will be working hard to get them all.

Or why not contact me to book one of the first workshops with the new catalogue and see what special benefits I can offer you, you won't be disappointed.

Christmas in August...

2010-08-18T13:29:00.000+01:00

I have been making lots of Christmas cards and a few gifts, with Stampin' Up products. I still have a few more to make but I have most of them made and I am very pleased with myself so I thought I would share a couple with you.

Card Club

2010-08-17T13:00:00.000+01:00

It's Card Club time again,and this month we will be making 3 Christmas cards with 3 different stamp sets, all Stampn' Up of cause.

If you would like to join us this month please let me know as soon as possible, I will also need payment of £10 by Monday 23rd August. The fee pays for all of the materials needed for the class including ink and adhesive, and there will also be refreshments.

Drop me an email if you would like to join us x

Card Classes

2010-07-23T11:23:00.007+01:00

Hello again, it's been a whole month since I posted, i've been so busy that I have not been able to find the time but I'm back now and hopefully it won't be so long next time.

Card club will be next Saturday 31st July at 2pm at my home. We will be doing the male/child cards this month as we didn't manage to do them last month. Scroll down to my last blog to see a sneak peak.

As usual all supplies needed to complete your 3 cards will be provided but bring along your paper trimmer with score blade if you have one, a pair of scissors and your favourite glue. Refreshments will be provided.

If you bring a friend along you can have the class for half price (£5) and if you spend £25 or more from the current catalogue or mini book the card club will also be half price (£5), so potentially you could have the card class free of charge.

There is a lot of preparation and cutting involved behind the scenes that you do not have to worry about because I do it all before you come to my classes, however I do often get let down at the last minute and often after these preparations have been done so, Because of this I now (regrettably) have to ask for payment ahead of the class therefore I would be grateful if you could ensure I have your payment by Thursday 29th July; I can take payment via Paypal as a gift, (this way you do not have to pay their charges). You could send me a cheque through the post or bring round the cash.

I am sorry that it has to be this way but it is difficult to use the card once it has been cut up so this ensures that I will not be out of pocket should anybody let me down at the last minute. I do hope you understand.

I look forward to seeing you next week!

Here is a picture I made for my new Grandaughters room using the Fox and friends stamp set from the Mini catalogue and the Nursery Letters Jumbo wheel.

I will also be adding some more pictures to my slide show in the next day or so.

Card Club...

2010-06-21T11:16:00.005+01:00

Sneak Peak of one of the cards!

Just a little reminder that I will be holding my usual card club on Saturday starting at 2pm. I still have a couple of spaces left and you would be very welcome, we are a friendly bunch of ladies that enjoy having a laugh and a joke so it should be a fun afternoon; We will be making something for the men this month and there will be 3 projects - would love to see you there.

I will need to know by Friday Lunch at the latest so that I can prepare the kits etc... The cost of the class is £10 per person including all supplies or you can get your class for half price if you bring along a new guest.

I will also be making some delicious Chocolate Brownies too!

See you there!

25 of the colours will stay and there will be 15 new colours added. (See the colour charts to your left).

Thank you card

2010-04-22T15:24:00.005+01:00

Hello, I hope you are enjoying the lovely weather, lets hope it lasts into the weekend.

I wanted to share this thank you card I made for one of my most valued customer as it shows just how well the different products in the stampin up colour family match so well. I have just used Pumpkin Pie and white as my colour scheme and made the card using patterns designer series papers, the 1/2" striped grosgrain ribbon, whisper white card stock and Pumpkin Pie ink pad. I love the way all the stampin up products make your crafting seem so effortless and professional looking.

If you love Stampin up products as much as I do why not consider hosting a workshop and the chance to earn some free products, I am offering 24 6x6 free papers from the new designer series paper stack in the new mini catalogue for any one hosting a work shop during the month of April, there is not much time left now so why not drop me an email today.

Box-a-lopes

2010-04-22T15:03:00.006+01:00

Hi all,

Sorry it has been a bit quiet for the past week or so but I have been away spending some quality time with my daughter and grandaughter. I had a great time and the next time I see them there should be another addition to the family.

I thought I would share one of my project ideas with you; I made this card set using a box-a-lope that I bought several years ago,they are mainly used for posting bulky cards through the post so as to help prevent them from getting squashed; I never really new what to do with them other than what they were designed for but I recently came up with the idea after seeing something similar on the world wide web (can't remember where though sorry. I also used some papers that I have had for a year or so too, they are not from Stampin' Up though. I made 4 cards 2 of each design and I think they will make a great little gift for somebody. I hope you like them.

Ribbon Share

2010-04-09T13:38:00.004+01:00

The ribbon share with the gorgeous 3 satin ribbons from the mini catalogue is now ready to be posted out to their new homes, so if you would like one please let me know as soon as you can. I have also included a free stamp from the Sale-a-bration sets that were available at the beginning of the year, so if you did not manage to get hold of any of them now is the chance.

The 18 1/2 metres of ribbon costs just £12.50 which includes P&P and you can pay me by cheque, paypal or cash. As soon as I have received payment I will get it posted to you.

Also, just to remind you I have my own special promotion on for this month only, when you host a workshop you can have 24 6x6 sweet pea papers from the new mini as a thank you.

I still have a few mini catalogues if any body else would like a free copy?

Enjoy the sunshine and have a great weekend!

Easter Gifts

2010-04-03T14:37:00.010+01:00

Hi Guy's,

I hope you are all having a great Easter break! Finally I have some time to post the Easter gifts I made for friends and family.

First off is the little gift box filled with little easter eggs, I should mention that the chick was designed by Michelle's daughter who is just 11yrs, a talented little lady; here is the link to the tutorial for the box and the chick.
I have used paper from the Tea & Crumpets range, the scallop & 1 3/8" circle punches, acaetate for the window and some beautiful chocolate chip taffeta ribbon to finish.

The next one is a sweet little basket made from a peice of 6x6 held together with a couple of book rings and finished of with some ribbon; I've filled mine with some Lindt Lindor...mmm

And the last one is a small gift pouch,again made with some designer paper & filled with some yummy chocolate hearts.

I hope you like my easter treats, if you would like to learn how to make any of these why not book a workshop and you and your guests can make one to take home, as well as the potential to earn extra stamp sets and money to spend on any thing you like from the catalogue. Please contact me for more information.

More goody's from the new mini catalogue

2010-03-30T12:36:00.000+01:00

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!
