Short break in Wales







Hi there
Sorry there have been no posts over the weekend. Gordon and I have been away for a quiet retreat to North Wales. We have been on a battery re-charge in a tiny log cabin in an idyllic setting and only a short drive from Barmouth where the beach is amazing.
Anyone who knows me will know that the beach/sea shore is my most favourite place to be and I have always loved to be on the beach in the middle of winter when no-one else is out. It was a beautiful sunny day on Saturday and although it was cold, the skies were blue and there wasn't a breath of wind so it was just perfect. I have to say I think this weekend was the first time I have ever seen ice drifts in the sand dunes and it seemed a bizarre mix to me although it did look lovely.

The other silhouette pictures were taken on Friday afternoon on our way to the cabin. We simply had to stop and capture this sunset as it disappeared behind the mountains it was so stunning and I just loved the black silhouette of the grasses by the bank.

So I am now back home and ready to prepare for my next set of classes this week. I also have the dreaded tax return to do, new cards to create for my next craft club, and lots of preparation for my day event in March. All in all I am going to be really busy for the remainder of January I think ? ? ?

Happy Birthday Vikki



I can finally share with you the card and matching gift box I have made for my friend Vikki's birthday which is tomorrow ( she will already be in bed so I should be quite safe to post this tonight)
I have used Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black and Whisper White as I know Vikki loves the stark contrast effect of this colour combination. Lets hope she likes my little offering.

All Day Spring Event Saturday 19th March

Hi there
I am pleased to announce that I now have my next All Day Event planned and booked for Saturday 19th March. The theme for this event is "Spring" as I am determined to think positively towards warmer weather and SUNSHINE ! ! ! At my last event I worked everyone a wee bit too hard so this time I am doing just two projects one from 10am to 12 and the afternoon one from 1pm to 4pm. There will of course be little gifts for everyone, spot prizes, raffle, packed lunch provided and an endless supply of homemade cakes and drinks. For those of you who have attended before you will know that my nephew Matt and my Mum will look after all of your refreshment needs throughout the day.

I am strictly limiting the numbers to 24 for this event and already have quite a few ladies who have booked immediately. There are currently places left available but I expect those to fill very fast so please be quick if you do not wish to be disappointed. The fee for this event is £25 per person and is payable please by the end of this month. I operate my list on a strictly first come first served basis so please contact me asap if you do wish to attend. (I may offer a second date for this event but only if there is enough demand)

I look forward to hearing from you soon

Fast and Fabulous Jaunty Ladies ! ! !


Back as promised to show you the two cards that my Jaunty Ladies created in class this afternoon. Both cards were made using the very lovely "Fast and Fabulous" Level 2 Hostess set from Stampin' Up. The first offering is a very delicate coloured card using Pretty in Pink, Pink Pirouette and Soft Suede. The second card uses the far more vibrant Rich Razzleberry and Early Expresso and I know my ladies liked the two very different effects even though the same stamp set was used. We also used my brand new Spritzer Tool this afternoon and it is already now on a couple of the ladies wish lists.
Remember the post earlier today with the card for Jayden, well he is my friend Vikki's little boy and she also celebrates her birthday next week so I've been busy this evening creating a special card for her too. I cannot actually believe I have made all 3 special cards this week.....a week before they are due instead of the night before as I usually do. Perhaps now that I am on a roll I should try and make the 3 I need for next month too.......or is that just pushing my luck maybe lol.

Jayden Birthday

Hi there
Here is the cute card I promised to share. It is for my friend's little boy Jayden who will celebrate his 4th birthday next week.
I am not particularly that good at creating cards for children but I think he will like the bright colours and the little owls from the Stampin' Up! Sale-a-Bration set "Punch Bunch" . The tiny shooting star stamp from the "So Happy for You" set is also from Sale-a-Bration. You just have to love these sets for their versatility.

I will be back later to show you the cards my Jaunty Ladies will be creating in class this afternoon.

Sale-a-Bration 2011 "Bliss" Stamp Set

Just a quickie post as I have a million and one things I HAVE to get finished which include:

  • Class packs to cut and make up for my Sweet Summer Class (please see previous post)

  • Class photo's and instructions to do

  • Thank you cards to put together (thankfully all the elements are stamped and ready)

  • Ironing ( how does that pile grow so big and so quick ?)

  • Prepare my first 2011 Christmas Class for the end of the month

  • Start preparation for my next All Day Event which should be in March (awaiting confirmation on the hall) Please contact me ASAP if you are interested in this as I have a strict maximum of 24 places for this event.

So back to today's card. The stamp set I have used is another of the Sale-a-Bration stamp sets that you can earn completely for free when you place an order for £45 from the current catalogue. Because I simply adore the vintage style this has to be my personal favourite of all of this year's sets. I have teamed Very Vanilla, Baja Breeze and Soft Suede cardstock and inks for this creation and have simply added a few adhesive pearls to finish. The sentiment is from the Curly Cute stamps set and this is fast becoming my favourite sentiment set. My card is a wee bit "clean" to be a true vintage style offering but I will be back with more cards to show you using this set once I have taken delivery of my "spritzer" tool from Stampin' Up! (Woohoo my parcel is on it's way, now will just need the time to play once it gets here lol)

Anyway hope you too like my card using the "Bliss" set

Back tomorrow with something cute to share.

Sweet Summer Class


At last ! ! ! ! After days of distraction I have finally been able to create my first class for 2011

In this class we will be making this box and card set, using the very beautiful Sweet Summer Sale-a-Bration stamp set. I love it's simplicity and it makes me think of warmer days which has to be a bonus when the weather is dismal outside. Today we have had a beautiful sunshine to start with followed by snow, horrendous wind and lashing rain so roll on Spring, or even better roll on Summer.

I have two dates planned for this class the first being Monday 17th January as a day class and I will be repeating the class as an evening one on Thursday 20th January. Please contact me asap if you wish to book your place on either of these dates as I always allocate spaces on a first come first served basis.

Punch Bunch Owl

Hi Everyone
I have been really busy preparing my classes for January but thought I would take time out today just to share this card with you. I used the oh so lovely Punch Bunch Sale-a-Bration set and am already totally in love with this little owl. He is so cute and come April we are getting the punch that co-ordinates with him so you won't have to cut him out by hand, just stamp and punch.

A gentle reminder that these Sale-a-Bration sets are limited edition and won't ever be offered in the main catalogue. As they are unique to this promotion only, they will NOT be available after 28th February so if you want this little owl and the other gorgeous images in this set you need to place your £45 order asap. All 5 of the stamps in this set have a matching punch which makes them so easy to work with.

I will be back later with the first of my classes for January.

New Year Crafting


Hi there and Happy New Year to you all.
I spent an unusually lazy New Year's Day crafting with my downline and we both had a lovely time. We have both had this flu bug over the Christmas period so had not felt creative which was a bit of a problem as we each had 15 cards to make for our downline team swap. I am thrilled to say we both managed to complete our cards and they will be in the post tomorrow. Unfortunately I cannot show you my card design for the swap until after the team members have received them so I am sharing a card I've made using the oh so gorgeous "Growing Green" stamp set. I stamped the images onto Watercolour paper using black stazon ink and then used my markers and aqua painter to colour them in. I am not particularly good at colouring but I am pleased with the effects even I can achieve using this method and this stamp set just looks stunning watercoloured.I then matted and layered my stamped piece in order to create a larger A5 card and finished it off by also decorating the inside panel. I started paying more attention to my card inners in the latter pat of 2010 and I try to go that bit extra on every card I make nowadays.

I must get going as I need to get a few more things done before bedtime. I will try and do another upload tomorrow

Family Christmas Cards




After battling with a flu type cold all week I was finally able to get my family cards made yesterday which was a big relief. I don't have that many to do but it certainly took me a while to decide what I wanted for this year's card. I used to make all totally different cards but last year I decided that I would stick with a common theme for all cards and just change something oneach one slightly so it is still quite unique. So as Dasher is my family's favourite all rounder stamp this year he had to figure on my family cards. I do still have 2 more "special" cards to make and he will likely feature on those too but they will have to wait until after tomorrow as I have my last two classes tonight and tomorrow and I have not prepped the photos OR the notes even for those as yet.
In addition to the family cards I also managed to decorate a gift bag and make a matching card for my lovely UPS delivery man . He always manages to get my SU parcels to me and even goes out of his way to go to my Mum's to drop them off on those odd times when I am not in or if they arrive when we are away. He is great and I like to make an effort to say thank you for all you do. Hope he appreciates the packaging as much as the contents lol

Craft Club Christmas Party Meeting

Hi there
Last Monday was the final Craft Club meeting for 2010 so I held a Christmas party rather than our usual format. I created tent cards for everyone and a little gift box containing 3 Ferrero Rocher chocolates (I think they went down well but then who doesn't love those little choccies? )I love the Cherry Cobbler, Early Expresso and Old Olive combination in the Holiday papers and have used it a lot for my Christmas cards (well the odd few I have managed to get done this year)
Instead of my usual Card Buffet cards I decided to treat everyone to a couple of free Make and Takes. I decided to use the gorgeous Welcome Christmas stamp set and I cased a card from the lovely Jenny at Stamping Moments HERE I changed the card colours to Baja Breeze and Soft Suede and simplified it a wee bit as there were quite a few ladies sharing my one stamp set. I also added a little matching gift box for everyone to make and all who attended made a great job with theirs. For those of you who know I don't "do" glitter very often please note that there were Dazzling Diamonds in abundance that night.........what a lift this glitter brings to a project, note to myself I WILL use it more often hee hee
I soooooooooooo wish I had got this Welcome Christmas as soon as we got the new Catalogue in October instead of only purchasing it a couple of weeks ago!!!!!! I absolutely adore it and feel like I just haven't given myself enough time to thoroughly explore the potential this set has.
However next year, beginning in January I am going to be starting a monthly "Christmas Theme" class whereby I make solely Christmas items, ie cards, gifts, boxes etc. My reasoning behind this is that I will no longer be chasing my tail come December as I will already have at least 11 sets of Christmas items made before then. If anyone is interested please get in touch and I will work on some dates for each month.
So here are the pictures of my little gifts and the make and take projects, hope you like them as much as my Craft Club ladies did on Monday

Post in Note Holder Take 2


Whilst doing my post it note class packs up earlier in the week I decided to do a couple in black and grey and although that may seem a bit of a weird colour choice to some of you it worked really well and they looked stunning when they were made up. Two ladies chose to do that colour combo on the night and two other ordered extra packs to take home in that colour. The one I am sharing with you today is my very plain version and most amazingly for me there isn't a sign of any stamping (that must be a first) but stamping aside I love how clean cut and simple it looks.
I have to say our Basic Black cardstock looks totally amazing when punched into flowers, scrunched and seperated into two layers, the suede effect you get from splitting the cardstock is lovely in all our colour range but these black ones actually look that rich, they are more like crushed velvet in texture.
I can see me making more of these little gifts as they are quick and simple to make but look so pretty.

Post it Note Holder

Just a very quick post for today as my nephew has just arrived and is taking me shopping as I am not willing to attempt the drive myself in these weather conditions. Oh for the confidence that young people have ! ! ! !
The project I am sharing with you today was the 3-D item I made for our team swap at Convention. Once my class ladies saw this they wanted to make one too so I had a small class on Monday and they chose their own colour scheme and decorated 2 each of these. We used the designer paper stacks and I have to say they are fantastic value at just £15.50 ( per colour family) and brilliant for my type of classes when I give my regular ladies a choice of colour to make their project individual.
Hope you like this little Post it Note Holder.

Ummm Anyone for a little Snow ??????





Well no cards to share with you today as nothing I can create could possibly compete with the pictures I AM sharing . How gorgeous is this beautiful valley today ? I am so glad I can now enjoy this view everyday when I am working in my new craft space. Admittedly it is a wee bit distracting but I am so lucky to be able to see all of this in the middle of winter whilst being as snug as a bug in my conservatory.

I am busy today making some little gifts and a make and take project for my Craft Club ladies for our last 2010 meeting on Monday night. I have planned a mini Christmas party and looking outside today I am hoping they will be able to get there on Monday. I am staying positive and need to get them finished. I will try to remember to take photos when I have them all done.

Clocks with a difference









Hi there
I thought I would share something a little different with you again today. This time I am featuring cute little clocks and matching gift boxes that my class created on Saturday. This was my first all day event in my new classroom and along with the crafting we also had cake on demand ( thank you Jenny and Sheila for your gorgeous contributions) and we did stop for lunch too.
These are totally OTT and very quirky but everyone loves them, they remind all of us of the little character clock in one of the Disney films. I wanted them to have the real vintage feel and they certainly have that along with heaps of character lol
The original clock idea came from a tutorial (still available) I bought from an amazing US demo, Sandi MacIver. I love her work and was totally smitten when I first saw her creations. You can go and view her work HERE so go and be inspired

I gave my ladies a small selection of colours to choose from and it was really amusing that I had two ladies do each of the four colours I offered. The colour mixes were a) Pink and Brown b) Purple and Vanilla c) Green and Brown d) Neutrals ( crumb cake, expresso and soft suede)I was a wee bit apprehensive about this class as my ladies have not really been exposed to paint, sanding, distressing, drilling etc before but I was thrilled to see each and every one of them thoroughly enjoy making their own individual creation from scratch.
Every clock and every box was different and they looked amazing. Unfortunately the light was fading a bit by the time we had all finished so the photos are not fantastic but I did promise my ladies I would pop them all on my blog for you to see. I have just noticed that here is one of the Green ones missing and that one is Vanessa's so apologies to her....she must have put hers away before the photo shoot.She is making others as presents so I will photograph one of those at a later date to show you.
Every person enjoyed what they made and a few of them are already planning their next clock to give as presents. So do you like them or are they just that bit too quirky and OTT ?
Love 'em or hate 'em..........I hope you enjoy looking at them.

Christmas Colour change


I thought I would share my newest Christmas card designs with you today.

I personally love traditional Red and green for Christmas cards and MOST ESPECIALLY our brand new Cherry Cobbler red with Old Olive but as I have used Cherry Cobbler to death lately I decided that I needed to move away from that combination and try something completely different.

One of my other new "favourite" colours from the colour renovation is Baja Breeze and I have gone through packs of this cardstock since the new catalogue launch on October 1st. I have been teaming it mainly with browns ie Soft Suede and Early Expresson but I decided I needed to do something different with it. have now fallen in love with the refreshing combination of Baja Breeze, Real Red and Whisper White and these are the cards I came up with for my Jaunty Ladies to make as part of their Christmas Card stack we have been working on over the past couple of weeks. I love the totally different look I have achieved with this combo and they seem crisp and fresh to me, almost frosty if that makes sense. I now just need to add some Dazzling Diamonds to add to that icy feel I think.


So what do you think, do you like them or have I lost the plot with this combo ?

First Christmas Cards

I have had a manic time since I got back from Convention as I have had a backlog of classes I simply had to prepare for so I apologise for the delay in posting.
The four cards I am sharing with you today were the cards my Jaunty Ladies made on Friday afternoon. I used the beautiful Welcome Christmas stamp set along with the ever popular "Dasher" stamp ( I love both of these) and went with traditional green and red with a touch of Early Expresso ( how gorgeous is this new brown? )

Hope you like this selection and I will try and post some of the others tomorrow or Friday.

Convention 2010


I am finally back from our 2010 Stampin' Up! Convention. I did get back yesterday afternoon but was simply too tired to do anything much than veg out on the sofa........boy did our team have a wonderful (but exhausting) time. I think it may have been something to do with the very late nights and even earlier mornings. This was the first time that many of us had met as a team and we wanted to make the most of every moment. Our team leader is the amazing Jenny Moors and although we are one of the smaller UK teams I know I speak for each and every one of us when I say we are so proud to be part of her team. She is one of the kindest and loveliest people you could ever wish to meet and is an inspiration to us all with her amazing creative talent. We love you Jenny and thank you for making Convention 2010 a place of special memories for all of us to cherish.

Hand on heart I have to say that although I was proud to be part of the first ever European Convention last year the 2010 Convention here in London was made even more special with so many more of our team members present. When they announced that next year's Convention will take place in Disneyland Paris there was pandemonium. I am sure the venue will mean that even more people will want to go.............I see decorated savings tins appearing in every demo's craft space over the next week or so.

If you would like to be part of that unique Stampin' Up! experience in Disneyland, Paris next November contact me today to learn more about coming a Stampin' Up Demonstrator and becoming part of my team.

For now I will leave you with a photo of our team on the main stage

2nd Anniversary card


Here is the 2nd Anniversary card I had to make for yesterday. This one was for my nephew Daniel and his wife Barbara, who were celebrating their 7th Anniversary and they both loved the card so I was very pleased.

I also managed to get my Mum's birthday card made but I cannot show that one until after today when I give it to her.

At last a card to share



Well at last.......................... my new craft room is now at that stage where I can actually sit in here and craft so here is my first creation.

This is a Wedding Anniversary card that I have made this morning and it is for my Sister and Brother in Law for tomorrow. I have used the gorgeous Wedding Sweet set of stamps and teamed it with Baja Breeze, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla inks and cardstock. I have also used our brand new border punch which is beautiful. Can you tell I am TOTALLY in love with the products in our new catalogue lol.

I must dash now as I have still to make another anniversary card for later on today for my nephew and his wife and also a Birthday card for my Mum for her birthday tomorrow..............can you tell that my family like to try and fit all the events into one week ha ha ha

New Craft Space


Just a quick apology for the lack of posts again.

I have had a really busy fortnight making samples etc for my New Catalogue Launch party and I have also been trying to get my new craft space organised. As you can see from these pictures it is coming along nicely but there is still quite a way to go before I can say it is a finished project. So far I have only moved in the basic furniture and a few essentials needed for this weeks classes so I have an awful lot of sorting out to do before I move the rest of my craft stash in there.

I am 100% determined that every single box in my existing craft room will be inspected and sorted before it comes anywhere near my wonderful new space. Anything I haven't used in ages or things I look at and have to think about how I can use it will be rehomed to another crafter who WILL make good use of it.
My new craft room may be a lovely big room but there is going to be no place in there for clutter of any form. I am spending this weekend trying to get the move completed so I will hopefully be back early next week to show you all a beautiful new TIDY room.

NEW Catalogue, NEW stamps AND NEW Colours

Hi there I am back as promised to show you the first card I have made with items from the New Catalogue.


This card uses one of our gorgeous new colours "Cherry Cobbler" which is the most stunning deep rich red that you can imagine. It goes perfectly with so many of the old colours as well as the new ones. It is a brilliant backdrop for the gold embossing I have used on this card and I can see me using it lots, especially for my Christmas cards as it gives a beautiful expensive feel to a card.

The card also uses one of the brand new stamp sets on offer in the new catalogue. The set is called Contempo Christmas and the really exciting news is that we now also have the matching punch for the bauble , so simply stamp your baubles in all the colours you want and punch them out....so easy and just perfect for those people who do struggle with cutting out with scissors.



I am still getting samples ready for my Catalogue Launch party on Thurs and also trying desperately to get my new craft room finished in time................who needs sleep anyway hee hee



I will try and get back again tomorrow to show off a couple more samples.

New Catalogue is here


So what is the date today ?

Of course .......it's 1st October so that means just one thing.


New
Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalogue goes live
TODAY

I have to say that I believe that the 2010/2011 Catalogue is our best yet. As you will know from the huge Last Chance list a huge amount of old sets have been retired so this meant just one thing........it made room for lots of new and exciting stamp sets.

In addition to a fantastic new selection of stamps we also have the total Colour Renovation. So there are now 40 new core colours for you to work with and for the first time ever we now have "In Colours" in cardstock, inks, accessories and papers.

I am delighted with the new catalogue and very excited about all the new things I will be able to play with over the coming 12 months. If you are free on Thursday next week please feel free to join me at my catalogue launch party to see samples made with some of the new products. If you cannot make that date but would like your own copy of the Idea Book and Catalogue please either purchase it via my tool bar or contact me to arrange collection.

Don't forget to pop back tomorrow to see my first examples.

Dorset and Father in Law's Birthday


I am finally back from my holiday in my home county Dorset and thought you might like to share one of the gorgeous sunsets I saw one evening. We were blessed with fantastic weather whilst we were down there and I even managed to catch a very slight tan. This was a family holiday as we took my parents and mainly a nostalgia trip for my Mum as she has been homesick for Dorset just lately.
Whilst we were there I also managed to meet up with my lovely upline Jenny and two other members of her team Val and Jane. We had a crafting morning which flew by far too quickly but we did have fun and it was a lovely taster of the riot we are going to have at Convention in November ( when even more of the team will be gathered) Thanks girls for a brilliant morning.
In addition it was my Father in Law's birthday on the 26th so here is the card I made for him, I hope he liked it as much as I enjoyed making it.

Well I have to say there may be a lack of posts for this next week as we are frantically trying to get my new craft space finished in time for my New Catalogue Launch Party which is on Thursday afternoon and evening. I have all the furniture arriving tomorrow and the blinds on Tuesday so it is going to be a really close shave to get it all done in time.......I am so glad my hubby is a STAR for working so hard since we got back from our hols. In addition to the actually room design jobs, I have also been frantically working on all new samples for my display boards etc so hopefully my ladies will enjoy seeing some of the new designs from the BRAND NEW CATALOGUE that goes live tomorrow.

All of my existing customers should have received their personal invitation by now so if you have not had a card from me then please get in touch asap. If you are not yet a customer but would like to join in the fun on Thursday then please email me to arrange this.

Lots of Scallops


At last I actually do have a card I can share with you. (I have been working on a number of samples in this past week but I will not be able to share those with you until after 1st October when our new SU Catalogue goes live)
My upline Jenny sets her team a mini challenge each month and this is my entry for her September challenge. It is so quick to re-create as it is simply 6 strips of cardstock decorateded with the scallop border punch and 3 tiny flowers made with the Boho Blossoms punch. Add a sentiment, tiny bit of ribbon and a silver clip. Voila it's done !

I will be back tomorrow when I hope to be able to show you a sneak peak of my next class for October

Developing new Craft Space

Hi there
I am sooooo sorry that yet again I find myself apologising for lack of blog posts.
I have not had the best 6 weeks of the year and all my creative thoughts sort of flew out the window and I wasn't able to come up with anything worth sharing with you...

Although I do not have a card to show you today I do have something amazingly creative to share with you. This is my whole new craft space in the making and by that I mean it is going to be my new classroom AND my office, all in the same spot. I needed to bring all my craft areas together and also have it separate to our actual living area and the conservatory will deliver exactly that. My regular class ladies have been watching the progress each week and I think some of them are as excited as I am about the new space, especially as it looks huge at the moment until I start moving in my new cupboards etc and I am sure that it will feel 100% smaller once my Stamping Up stash moves in too.

The builder finished the plastering this week and it is now ready for painting so we need to get a move on with that. DH also then has 22 boxes of tiles to fit and I need to get on and get the window blinds sorted.......and then just a few more finishing touches and it will be ready.

Realistically speaking it is now going to be October when I shall be ready for my first classes in this beautiful new craft room. What better time to move in and increase my classes when the SU new catty also goes live on the 1st October. I am planning lots of new and fresh classes and will now have room to fit up to 10 ladies at a time. If you are interested in my up and coming classes for October and November please get in contact and get your name on my mailing list. I will then let you know as soon as I am posting details of the new classes on a regular basis.

Anyway hope you like the look of my new crafting space and don't forget to pop back to see how it is coming on. I cannot wait until I can show you the completed project and hopefully it will not be too long .
