Sprinkled Expressions, Fresh Vintage

Happy Sunday everyone!  I had a brilliant workshop last Friday, meeting with a group of lovely ladies (most of them are my regulars – so I felt quite at home) and my Hostess earned a shopping spree of H£65 plus two full priced items at 50% discount! If you haven’t hosted a workshop before, Sale-a-bration is […]

You’re a Gem

I centred these itty bitty cards measuring 2 1/2″ square around the “You’re a Gem” stamp set on page 8 of the 2012  Spring Mini.  It is on the same page as the Trinket Crowns and Trinket keys which appear directly below.  The word set can be so easily missed, because one’s eyes are drawn […]

Spring Mini and Sale-a-bration Event

This photo might appear a little fuzzy as I’ve cropped it.  I held my Spring Mini Event yesterday centred around Sale-a-bration with an Open House and it was a blast.  They loved the samples and were excited to touch and feel the new products from the Spring Mini for real! It features the items made with […]

Elementary Elegance, You’re a Gem, Borderlines

At our team quarterly meeting last Saturday, my brief was to showcase this set.  I have to admit I had a mental block about this one, because it only comprised the frame and the accompanying images are really small.  I will share the projects I did once my event is over on Sunday. The upshot […]

SALE-A-BRATION BEGINS TODAY!

Why have I been so quiet?  Well I’ve been busy preparing for our team’s Inspiration Station which took place on Saturday last and also my Spring Mini Event which takes place this Sunday 29th January.    It just so happens that it has been scheduled alongside the Sale-a-bration period which kicks off today! Sale-a-bration has come a little later this year, but […]

Need for Speed, For my Family

This is the card I made my son who will be celebrating his birthday later this week – hard to believe he is approaching his mid-thirties! Makes me feel old!  The cardstock and inks I used were Whisper White, Marina Mist, Early Espresso.  I always forget that we now have square envelops in our catty, so this […]

Patterned Pets, Pocket Silhouettes, Petite Pairs

Hidden message card re-visited.  As a fledgling demonstrator, I taught this to my Technique Club ladies many years ago and have resurrected it for my SWE Card club ladies this month.  We did a fossil stone background on glossy cardstock and the effect lent itself to an aquatic theme. So I paired it with the fish from the Patterned Pets stamp set in […]
