Mandi's Special Day

My lovely friend and down line Mandi had her special day last week also and so I made a special card for a special lady ;-)

I used a Rose Red and Confetti White colour combo with a hint of Old Olive for the stems of the flowers from Simply Soft 

Sentiment is again from Best Birthday Wishes

and I did decorate some little pegs to match for Mandi too :-)

I'm sure she had a fab day as she is on holiday, who couldn't enjoy their birthday when they are away eh?!

Stampin' Hugs for today folks,

Christmas (not so) classic

I have a Christmas card for you today, but not in a colour way you might immediately think of! I love it but I do agree it is a bit marmite, I would love to hear your opinion??

The base is Wisteria Wonder with a layer of Lucky Limeade and a pop of Cameo Coral

The stamped image is an A la Carte (individual one) and is called Something for Christmas, see page 16 for more details,

If you would like to order any of the items I have used for this card (or any others) then please do drop me a line :-)

Stampin' Hugs for today,

Jeannettes Birthday

My lovely friend Jeannette had her special day last week and this is the card I made for her...

I used the lovely Simply Soft again onto confetti white card, this is gorgeous card with little flecks of petals visible across the card

Sentiment is Best Birthday Wishes, another hostess set you "need" another great reason to host a workshop with me or join my new stampers 6 club ;-)

i hope Jeannette liked her card, hang on, I will ask her when I see her in Paris in a couple of weeks!! Yay!!

That's all for today,

Thanks for visiting me and I promise I will be round to see you very soon

Stampin' Hugs,

Note Book.

And so today for the final gift I made for Emma to welcome her to the team!

 I covered a journal with DSP and decorated it ready for Emma to use however she wants!

Her initial was stamped with Broadsheet Alphabet

Crotchet trim and In Colour ruffle ribbon decorate the spine, love both of these ribbons!!

and all three items together looking pretty ;-)

I hope you have enjoyed the last few days projects and if you would like to chat to me about joining the Southern Belles team then I would welcome your call or email :-)

Milk Carton for Emma

Good Morning!

Following on from yesterdays post the first gift I made for Emma was an A4 Milk Carton (tutorial available in the Dazzling Dozen pack) to match the card I made her :-)

Soft Suede and Cameo Coral colour combo was used again with Newsprint DSP,

A cute decorated clip holds it closed, love this crotchet trim!

and what was inside the carton??

Yep! A great selection of lots of the current ribbons I have to get her started on her crafty SU! journey!

Super quick post today but I will be back tomorrow with the final part of Emma's welcome gift

Stampin' Hugs for today,

Welcome to the team Emma :-)

Hello there,

A few days ago I had another lovely downline join my team The Southern Belles, her name is Emma (in case you didn't read the title!) and when any new member joins my team I always like to send them a little "Welcome" gift, some things to help them on their SU! journey!

This is the card I made for Emma in a Cameo Coral and Soft Suede colour way, I am loving both of these colours right now, both together and separately, I can't seem to use anything else! Lol!

Background DSP is the yummy Newsprint, loving this too! and the Fun Flowers Die with an antique brad in the centre,

I used the sadly neglected Vintage Vogue for the vines with Itty Bitty Punched flowers filled with Pearls,

and a little decoration inside too

She liked it, so once again Emma, Welcome!

That's it for today, I will be back tomorrow with more gifts for Emma, if you would like to discuss the benefits of join SU! and turning your crafting hobby into a business or just purchasing your stash a a discount then please email me with any questions or queries and I will call or email you for a chat :-)

Stampin' hugs for today,

A bit more Aviary

Hello again!

I have a very CAS card for you today using Aviary, if you would like to lay with this set then why not come along to my class this month? I have a couple of dates with a space or two, message me for more info.

I used a Melon Mambo and Tempting Turquoise colour combo, love these together, I think they are really summery and bright :-)

Sentiment is from the retired Basic Phrases but the Teeny Tiny Wishes on page 86 would be an equally perfect option too!

Right, that's me for today

Thanks for stopping by today, I will be back tomorrow with more goodies :-)

Stampin' Hugs for today,

Thanks

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,

Clean and Simple Aviary
