Father's Day Class

Good morning to you today,

I want to share with you today the project we will be making at  this months 'Father's Day' class next week, I still have a few spaces left on Tuesday or Saturday of you would like to join us, the cost is just £10 with all supplies included (except photos) or FREE with a spend of £35! contact me on sarah-janerae@sky.com to reserve your place.

So we will be making this brilliant Brag Book which my lovely downline Anna showed to me how to make, using just one sheet of 12x12, when she came and visited with me a while back, thanks Anna, this is such a great project xx I have also made a very basic card to go with this book.

As you can see I chose Basic Grey DSP for my book but you will be able to choose from the Neutrals paper pack to make your brag book with of course co-ordinating satin ribbon,

When you come to this class you will need to bring between 10-14 pictures, each around 6cm square but no larger than 7cm square, they will all fit onto one A4 sheet for printing, again, message me if you need more help with this :-)

Here are my pages, I decided to print my pics in Sepia using Real Red accents with the star stamp from  Itty Bitty Bits and punch,

and we will package them both in a Medium cello bag,

I hope you will be able to join us this month and as always you will receive as much or as little help as you need to re-create this project,

Stampin' Hugs from me today,

Monster of a Card

Hello,

In a week or so my friend and upline Julie is having a team training day, I cannot make it this time unfortunately but I am participating in the Card Candy swap so that's what I have been doing the last few days. I am pleased with the end result but I will have to wait to blog them until when the are going to be swapped so as not to spoil the surprise for the other members of the team ;-)

So, back to this card, I just fancied playing with this monster set the other day as I have had it for ages and not really gotten round to playing with it, I used the colour coach for the combo again, it is Rich Razzleberry, Pear Pizzaz and Tempting Turquoise,

The little banner is made using the star punch and the balloons are from Party this Way, it really is such a great set and the little star in the background is from Every Little Bit,

and an arty angle,

so a quick and easy little card for a boy today, I am going to clean my car this morning, boo, but then I hope to get inky later,

Have a great day whatever you are up to and thanks for stopping by to visit today xx

Pocket Silhouettes

Good Morning,

How's your weekend been? We haven't done much, a drive into town to give some friends a lift to their cruise (lucky ducks) which should have taken about 25 mins which actually took me a whole hour as everyone around Southampton decided as it was raining that shopping in town seemed like a great idea ;-) and just pottering round Sunday, a bit of cleaning and washing and then some prep for next months class, how's that for organised?! I am going to make up the sample to take with me to the Papercraft show next Saturday, I hope to see some of you there? email me for more details and directions if you need them.

Enough waffling, here's today's card, I haven't used Pocket Silhouettes for absolutely ages and I really don't know why 'cause it's lovely??! I was inspired to use it by my SU! sis Sarah, Thanks for the reminder hun x

Colours used are Basic Grey, Melon Mambo and Taken with Teal, Love this combo!

A little {blurry} picture of the inside,

And finally I layered the sentiment and the Melon panel, adding crystal effects to the punched circle to make a faux brad,

Well, that's it for today, Have a great Bank Holiday Monday.

Back tomorrow with more crafty goodness,

Thanks for stopping by, Hugs Sarah-Jane xxx

The Rest of Catching Up

Hello,

Well, as promised, I have some more of the cards made with the Sunny Day Simply Scrappin' Kit,

Polka Dot background stamp also used on this one with versamark,

Flower from Good Friend used as a background, Soft Subtles button in the yummy circle punch flower,

Polka dot background and Word Window Punch used on here, that is not a brad on there btw, it is a punched circle covered in Glossy Accents ;0)

And finally for today the star punch was used on this one for some texture,

So that's all for today, I have to tidy up later but now I am off with the kids to see Planet 51 and brekkie at IKEA :0) lucky us!

Have a great day, do enjoy the last of the holidays,

Hugs Sarah-Jane xx
