MONSTER HUGS

Hi everyone!  My first proper post since the new year.    I have had such trouble sourcing Hershey nuggets in this country, so imagine my delight when I was visiting my family in Melbourne, Australia and I found this 52 ounce bag with 4 different flavours and just had to have them! Monster Hugs can […]

Memorable Moments

I was intrigued by how this border was achieved and took my inspiration from the newly launched Annual Catalogue – page 134.  With the help of a stampa-majig, I stamped the frame image from Memorable Moments on a strip of Pear Pizzazz.  The lines and gingham effect on alternate panels were drawn freehand and the […]

Henry Says

Oh my!  Sunday again already?  Well, for my Sunday Share, here’s one of the impending retiring sets. Poor Henry, he won’t be around for much longer – he is in the Spring Summer Catalogue which ends on 30 June and he won’t be making an appearance in the main catalogue!  You have been warned!  If […]

Make a Wish

Do you like the vintage look?  Well the perks of being a Demonstrator is that over the years I’ve invested in a lot of Stampin’ Up! paraphernalia!  One is this lovely set of Typeset Bigz Alphabet Dies (page 192 Annual Catalogue).  This is a HUGE investment – £80, but it could be yours at 50% […]

Open Sleigh

As we count down to Christmas,  here are more christmas cards using the Open Sleigh stamp set in the Annual Catalogue – page 12.  My colour combo is Gumball Green, Riding Hood Red and Very Vanilla card stock.  I’ve used the Framed Tulips embossing folder to frame the sleigh which was stamped in Riding Hood […]

Sunday Share

For my Sunday share this is a “party” invitation card.  My card base is in Sahara Sand and I used the largest die from Framelits Labels collection to cut the Pink Pirouette layer which was embossed with Perfect Polka Dots EF. The next layer was cut with the Window Frames collection out of Snow Festival […]

Owl Occasions

Well, hello everyone!  I’ve neglected my blog recently – having run out of scheduled blog posts I just haven’t found time to schedule more.  It is rather time consuming and I need to set aside a day to catalogue photos, watermark them, then compose and schedule the posts..  I’ve taken time out what with hubby on leave […]
