Revised card club...

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.

SU New charmed collection

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.

Sorry for my absence...

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...

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

Stampin' Up! European Convention --- Disneyland Paris 2011

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
