Botanical Blooms

Hello! I made a thank you card today. It is for a fellow demo who showed us how to make this lovely windmill box at our last team training meeting.

I love it! (I needed lots of help though!)

My card uses SU's Botanical Blooms stamps. I have used a colour combo of Perfect Plum, Pool Party and Early Expresso. I clear embossed the sentiment and added some washi tape and sequins. I used a snippet of Go Wild dsp left over from the scrapbook layout in my last marathon post! I am therefore sending my card off to Di and 'Parsnippet' at Pixie's Snippets Playground. Have a great weekend! April x

More Recycling

 

More recycling of brown paper today - this time using the fabulous Spiral Flower die. I sponged the edges of the flower with some Melon Mambo ink and added some Smoky Slate chevron ribbon, an antique brad and a stamp from the Postage Due set. I hope you like it!

 

Fresh Prints Workshop

 

Join us for a relaxing workshop on Thursday, 20th March at 7pm. We are at a different venue from the usual one, so please message me for details. Using the lovely Fresh Prints designer series paper stack, we will be making two greetings cards, a box envelope and a decorated gift box. The cost of the workshop is £11 and includes £9 of Stampin' Up products to take home with you. Please note that this payment is non-refundable.

There will also be the opportunity for you to see examples of cards made from Sale-a-bration papers and stamps. For every order of £45, you can select a free, exclusive item from the fabulous Sale-a-bration catalogue.  

Please bring your own adhesive. You will need a strong glue and dimensionals. Please let me know when you book your place on the workshop if you would like to pre-order adhesive. Multi-purpose liquid glue is £3.25. Stampin' Dimensionals (300) also cost £3.25.

This card uses the gorgeous Spiral Flower die. It is also my entry for NAC #79. I hope you like it!

Here is the gift box we will be making on the night. No crafting experience is required. Tea and biscuits included. We look forward to seeing you x

   

Mini Pizza Boxes

 

Such a busy old time lately with Halloween and Bonfire Night. It's been nice to get back to some crafting. Here is a mini pizza box made from Real Red and Tempting Turquoise card. I've used Snowflake Soiree with some silver embossing powder and silver glimmer paper. This is going to be filled with tea lights stamped with the smallest snowflake from that set.

 

Here's another one in Smoky Slate with a band made from Winter Frost DSP. This is a project I'm taking along to a training day tomorrow. Just a pasta salad to make tomorrow morning and then I think I'm just about organised...

 

Here is a card I have made for a FB swap. Bit of a Real Red and Tempting Turquoise theme going on with me at the moment! This is the Wishing You stamp set, with a flower made using the Boho Blossoms punch. 

 

And finally a few tags! Hope you are having a lovely week x

 

 

 

Welcome to my blog!

I have always been obsessed with lots of different crafts. Since 2011, I have held weekly card-making and craft classes at a church community centre. In January, I decided to become an independent Stampin' Up demonstrator. I love Stampin' Up products and I'd like to share what I have enjoyed making on this blog.

Here are three little things made with the SU Perfect Postage stamps and Postage Stamp punch. The little bookmark is a big paperclip with a postage stamp of Pool Party cardstock, printed with Early Expresso. There is a Baja Breeze ribbon attached - perfect for holding all my many bits of paper together! The matchbox and the covered notebook both have Rich Razzleberry cardstock and ink, combined with Pretty in Pink. They both have the very lovely Twitterpated Designer Series Paper too.

Here is our handsome boy, Spot. He happens to be posing near some Classic Stampin' Spots!
