Chalk Talk Thanks

Hello,

I have some cute and quick thank-you cards to share with you today,

I used some of the Quatrefancy Speciality DSP and the new Chalk Talk stamp set to make these little cards. They are just 9.9cm square and perfect for a little note and you can get 3 from an A4 sheet of card!

Card base is Midnight Muse with a pop of colour in Strawberry Slush and I added a little bit of the yummy new ruffled ribbon Coastal Cabana too...

 The sentiment I used is a retired set but lots of others would work well, you could use; Petit Pairs, Fabulous Phrases or even Teeny Tiny sentiments...

 and here they are all together...

Thanks as ever for stopping by today :-)

Teachers Cards

Hello there,

What a lovely day I have had, a bit of shopping this morning and then a relaxing afternoon too :-))))

Today I want to share with you the cards I made for the children's teachers I used the retired Tart and Tangy stamp set (again) but as they all had different teachers this year it really didn't matter, phew! 

 Sentiments are from Thank-you kindly (page 86) a very handy set to have ;-)

 This one has a Curly Cute sentiment 

 and a fourth style to finish today

Right, that's me for now, I'm off to work tonight.

Back soon with more cards to share, 

Quick reminder that you still have time to book onto my Stamp-a-Stack on this Monday (23rd) or Wednesday (25th) message me to join us!

Stampin' hugs, 

Stampers Club cards

Hello there

I have got a couple of cards to share with you today, the first is the kit card I sent out with this months orders and uses a cool tecnique making a double layered die cut butterfly. I unfortunately cannot find the original link from the lovely lady who devised this fab tecnique, I remember I read she demo'd it at Australian convention so if there is someone out there who knows her blog please message me so I can credit back as I love this idea :-)

That said, here is my card for June using a wisteria wonder butterfly with sweet shop DSP underneath, confetti stamps decorate the large butterfy and a strip rhinestones finish the centre.

 OK, so lot sof butterflies today, I made these little cards to send with their orders using the same Bigz butterfly die, smae dsp and cofetti stamp set too. It is quite a different look to the first card though?

 more rhinestones

 and 3 together (Couldn't get the rest on the stand ;-))

Right, must dash and get kiddies, 

Thanks for visiting today

Stampin' Up! Perfect Postage

Good (wet) morning!

It's really rubbish here again today so it look as though I will be finishing off my swaps ready for SU! Regional Training in Reading this Saturday :-)

But first I have a card which uses lots of Spring Mini products which will be going next Monday, remember to get your order to me if there is anything in there you "need" (Cupcake punch would be my hot pick!)

Anyway, no cupcake punch on today's Thank-You cards ;-)

Perfect Postage stamp set, Blossom Party Die (heart) Spice Cake DSP, Borderlines (heart) all going at the end of the week :-(

 Image was punched out with the 1+1/4" circle punch and mounted it onto the Giant Buttons, also from the Spring mini, it's a Spring Mini Fest today!!!

 Choc Chip button don't they make great frames?

 and the flower behind is made with the Blossom Party Die

 

 Love this thanks, from Thank-You kindly set and punched with the Decorative label punch

 and some of them all together

I hope you like today's cards? I will be back tomorrow with the first of next weeks stamp-a-stack cards, message me if you would like to join us :-)

But if you would like to order anything from the Spring Mini then please get in touch asap :-)

Stampin' Hugs for today,

Happy New Year to you all!!

I hope you all have had a wonderful Christmas and new year with your loved ones, we played Table tennis and then Wii games with the kids and my Mum and Nan to see in our new year, only stopping to watch the wonderful fireworks on the TV live from London! They were amazing!!

Anyway, back to creating today, I have today finished creating the stamp-a-stack for next week and I still have a couple of spaces left, so message me now to reserve your spot bookings will close on Friday (or sooner if I fill all the spots)

Please message me now to avoid disappointment

That's all for today but thanks for stopping by,
I look forward to hearing from you soon, 

Stampin' Hugs for today,

Hello,

I have a quick and easy Thank-You card to share with you today. It uses the Simply Soft stamp set, this gorgeous set is only available to purchase with "Hostess Pounds" so you can earn yours for FREE when you host a workshop with me, or by joining my NEW stampers 6 club which will be starting in January, message me to join in the fun!

So, the card, I just love this stamp set, see it all on page 10 of the catalogue. It is so pretty and really lovely to work with,

I stamped the stem and flower outline in Always Artichoke and the petals in Baja Breeze,

I made half a dozen or so but I couldn't fit them all on the little stand ;-) Sentiment id from the ever useful Thank-you Kindly (find it on page 86)

O.K. super short post today,

Back tomorrow with some more craftyness

Stampin' Hugs,

A Couple of Thank-You Cards

Good morning,

Apologies for my absence yesterday, I have been busy designing and prepping for Owl Punch Class on Monday and Tuesday next week,

ONLY A COUPLE OF SPACES LEFT ON MONDAY NOW, email me to reserve your place asap!!

I am running really late this month with the charity class last week and up-coming shows too! Just a little reminder I am at Lyndhurst Community Centre again this Sunday, do pop in if you are in the area, I will be sure to take plenty to see ;-) and not forgetting The Steam and Craft Show at Netley Marsh the weekend after (22, 23, 24th July), link in side bar, there is plenty to see and do there, sure to be a great day out for all the family :-D

Anyway, I like to add a card with my orders (or just after if they come straight to you) and this is what I made last week for a couple of ladies,

Crumb Cake base with same coloured layer which I embossed with Square Lattice folder after I stamped the sentiment from Thank-You Kindly. Finished with some yummy wide striped grosgrain ribbon to finish, I also did up a little bag of ribbon for each of the ladies ;-)

Well, that's me for today, short and sweet I am afraid, I will be back tomorrow with Nicky's card from last week,

Look forward to seeing you here!

Stampin' Hugs,

Less is More ans Clean and Simple :-)

Hello again,

Well, 2 posts in one day, that is virtually unheard of eh?!

So, as I have been struggling a bit of late to get what is in my head onto paper and card I decided to go for a couple of challenges and see if that has the right effect... I wanted to joing in with Mandi and Chrissie at Less is More where the theme this week is Thanks or Congratulations and loved the sketch over at Clean and Simple and this is what I came up with,

Colour combo is from the colour coach, Pear Paizzazz, Peach Parfait and Concord Crush. I knew I wanted to use this Beautiful Wings butterfly embosslit and once run through the big shot I inked the butterflies using Craft Whisper White ink to show off the gorgeous embossing,

  I decide to die cut the corner inside with the Stampin' Up! Fun Flowers die to make a Concord Crush cut away flower to add the butterflies to, iykwim!

Well, that really is all for today, I am looking forward to doing some blog hopping later, but first I really have to shorten my "to do" list,

All supplies used are SU! contact me if you would like to place an order :-)

Have a lovely day, whatever you are up to,

Stampin' Hugs,

A Card from a Dress

Good Morning,

I hope that you have all had a lovely weekend. We have been outside working in the garden in the sun, 'tis a bit cloudier today but still good for working outside! So, before I go out I have a card to share with you, I was in Debenhams a couple of weeks ago and saw this lovely little dress, so cute!

 I was inspired by the colours and stripes on it so I took a quick photo on my phone and came home and got to work! I made the flowers with the Fun Flowers Die and embossed them with the Perfect Polka Dots folder, The centres are punched from Daffodil Delight card and topped with crystal effects,

Sentiment is from Thank You Kindly stamped using Whisper White Craft Ink and punched out with the Modern Label punch,

and here is the finished card

I hope you like today's card, it is a bit different from the norm for me but I hope you enjoyed seeing it?

Thanks for stopping  by today, I better get to work then tonight I can stamp!

Stampin Hugs,

Little Thank-You's

Hi there,

I have a much simpler design to share with you today using the Daisy Die#2 from the Mini Catalogue, I made them for the ladies who placed an order with me at this months class and popped them in with a little goodie bag (which I forgot to photograph! doh!) to thank them for their continued support :-D

I die cut the daisy from Daffodil Delight card (loving this colour and I don't usually "do" yellow) I first saw this card by a lovely demo called Kirsteen and was inspired to make a (very) similar card, thanks Kirsteen x

I inked the edges of the daisy with More Mustard and added a Square Lattice embossed centre too, sentiment is from the Thank You Kindly stamp set,

And here they are all together,

Thanks again ladies and I know you are all going to love this new catalogue :-)

Please email me if you too would like to place an order, host a party with friends, come to a class or are interested in joining my Stampers 6 club starting very soon,
Thanks for stopping by today,

Stampin' Hugs,

A Little Thank-you

Hi there,

First of all today I would like to thank the lovely ladies who came to this months class, it was great fun as always. If you would like to join us next month then please email me for more details. Sneaky peeks will follow shortly ;-)

but today's project was a little gift I packaged and sent to my good friend Julie xx

I made a simple little card and a large pillow box in Poppy Parade and classic Black and White,

and a few close-ups of the details on the box, the hearts are made with the Mini Heart Punch using Poppy Parade DSP

flower from the same paper made with the Boho Blossoms Punch and finished with a Basic Rhinestone,

and the sentiment is from the FREE Punch Bunch Sale-a-Bration set which fits perfectly in some Hodgepodge Harware,

Well Julie has received this so I am safe to show here, I hope you like today's project,

Happy Stampin'

Hugs,
