Hi all

Wow its the middle of the week already, hope all is well where you are :0)

More projects from my Stampers Showcase stint...had to be a cupcake in there somewhere so i decorated this simply with a little love banner, ideal for that someone special in your life sssh dont tell ian!!

As i am also addicted to my envelope punch board i knew had to make a cracker in the mix - so again a little valentine cracker.

 I always like to have a notebook in my bag or nearby as i am a list maker - always making lists of things to do etc so made a bright cheery notebook again using new DSP and added a little frill with some Coastal Cabana ruffle ribbon.

Not that i am saving the best for last but i must admit this is my favorite, took alot of stamping and punching even though very simple layout but love the way it has turned out.

I embossed the sentiment in gold although cant quite see that here but lovely project to do.

Happy Crafting

Hello crafters

i hope you are all having a lovely day whatever you are doing...me i will be looking at teeth as you read this as i am at work...monday always a very busy day for me so pre wrote this post.

My SU mum Julie requested a volunteer for a stampers showcase for the monthly newsletter she sends out to her team...I volunteered which is a big step for me :0)

 I used the Banner Blast stamp set from the SAB 2014 which starts Jan 28th 2014 and has lots of gorgeous things in it.

I made lots of things and then decided my favorites...i really love the calenders.

I also made this little mini album using crumb cake and the new Retro Fresh DSP - i won these at convention late last year!!

Inside were just a couple of photos of my gorgeous little boy decorated with a couple more stamps from the Banner Blast set.

I will post a few of the other projects I made later in the week.

Thats it from me for today

happy crafting

Woohoo ive finally got my internet back!!

Its amazing how my life changed with no internet for 3 days...sooo hard, had to cope with my phone only!

Difficult to say the least.

Anyway on to my offering for today

Its coming to an exciting time of the year with a new seasonal catalogue from Stampin' Up! as well as 

sale-a-bration towards the end of January...lots of scrummy yummy new things!!

Well ive been packaging my catalogues up ready to post out to tease my customers  and i included these cute little quick makes to make their day!

Such a simple design using a sneek peek of some new designer papers to make the bunting as well as a freebie punch ( FREE with a qualifying order of £45) so cute.

The sentiment is from another SAB stamp set earned free and made the little flower from 'new' washi tape and itty bitty punch

Am sure my customers will love them...as well as the new cattys.

That me for today...still a mountain of things to do after spent almost all day trying to fix my internet :0)

Happy crafting

Good evening to you

 

I am waiting up for a phonecall so figured I would use the time efficiently and blog today rather than tomorrow :0) my organisation at the moment is a little bit scary!!

 

I was requested to make this baby card for a colleague after making a blue design a couple of months back and its just soooo cute!!

 

It uses a retired set for which I apologise but had to use it for this design.

obviously this was for a little girl.

 I coloured in the stamped images using various pink tones of Promarkers but everything else used is Stampin' Up! including the cute little peg!!

Adorable!!

 

Happy Crafting

Good afternoon on this wet and windy Sunday

 

hope you're all having a nice one!

 

I have been crafting a lot getting some projects ready for a special newsletter but I am not going to show you all of them yet...just a sneeky peek of one of them!!

 

 

I had a task of making projects with a particular stamp set and made this tag and simple box as I was doing so...my fave colour combo at the mo is Bermuda Bay and Crushed Curry so this fit right in on my crafty table :0)

Its very simple but  I like that!!

 

I'm off for a snack break now just realised I haven't eaten yet so that's it from me today.

 

Take care and happy crafting
