Christening Card no. 2

This is the other Christening Card, as promised.

I have used the same colour combination and stampset as the previous card, I have just added a bit of Crumb Cake cardstock.

Thanks for stopping by.

Christening Card

Today I have a Christening card that I made as I had a request to make 2 of them, I will post the other 1 tomorrow when I have finished making it!

 For this card I used Baja Breeze and Whisper White Cardstock, Baja Breeze, Early Espresso ink. To make the bottom of the drawers I used the Modern Label Punch. The stampset is Bundle of Love. I used a blender pen and ink spots to colour in the bear, duck and baby etc. The alphabet is the Just perfect alphabet which I stamped in Baja Breeze and then cut out by hand so the greeting fit on the card!

Thanks for stopping by.

Sorry for the disappearance again!!

I haven't been able to log in for a while, and I have been working to as I have a job now! I have a couple of Fathers Day cards to show you and a bit more of my Wedding Stationary progress.

These were both made for the same person but my distressing kit had just arrived and I wanted to try it out!They both use Cherry Cobbler and Basic Black cardstock and ink, I have used DSP from the newsprint collection, the stamp set I have used is Plane and Simple. I also used some Basic Black Taffeta Ribbon, a mini bulldog clip and some Silver Brads.

Onto Wedding Stationary, these are the favours 100% complete! There are 110 of them! There was supposed to be 100 but I cut a few extra in case I went wrong. I am really pleased with the outcome....and I hope Laura is too.

Will hopefully be back Tuesday with some more pics, as I am away the weekend.

Thanks for stopping by! Be back soon!

Wedding Favours

Today I have started making the favours for my friends wedding, her bridesmaids dresses are a plum colour so when I was talking to her at the start she told me the colours had to be purple, so we chose a colour scheme of Perfect Plum, Sahara Sand and Very Vanilla.

They aren't quite finished I have to put ribbon on them too but I am busy busy busy cutting 100 of them I put a few together to post a picture before I forgot. I also have a picture  of the centre pieces.

This also isn't finished as there will be sweets at the bottom, then the tissue paper, then the multi-coloured strawberries and balloons coming out of the top. The strawberry idea is from a swap I received from a fellow demonstrator at my first training event with Amanda.

Back soon

Busy busy busy

Sorry I haven't posted anything since Saturday, I've had bit of a busy week so I haven't made any cards. I will make some tomorrow and put some pictures up.

Be back soon

Wedding invites...

I have been trying to post this picture for a few days but the website has been down....anyway I have been asked by 2 separate people (both of them are friends) if I could make them wedding invites.. The picture I am showing you today is a mock up for the 2nd lady who asked me, she is getting re-married and wanted something simple but pretty and only using cream and red, this is what I came up with...

I have used Riding Hood Red and Very Vanilla cardstock, the Scallop Trim Border and Corner Punch, the Modern Label Extra Large Punch, Manhattan Flower embossing folder and the Scalloped Heart of Hearts embosslits die. She was very pleased with the out come, and so was I.

I will post a picture of the other invites when I have made them.

Back Soon

Quarterly Training 29.1.11

Yesterday was the Demonstrator Quarterly Training. I had a lovely day and Thank You to Kerry for inviting me along.It was nice to meet lots of other Demonstrators and I received lots of beautiful swaps and I came home really inspired.
Thank You to Amanda for the Make and Takes which were also really inspiring.
I'm looking forward to trying out some of the Swap designs.
Here are the Make and Takes. We made 3 cards, a four tier gift box and a mini scrapbook which I haven't finished yet.

 I actually love the Tier box Thank You Amanda for showing me how to make it.

Back Soon

New To This...

I'm new to this whole blogging thing.. but as time goes on I'm sure I'll get used to it.
I am about to become a Stampin' Up Demonstrator so thought a blog might be a good idea to show people what it is I will be doing.


On the 29th of January I am attending a Demonstrator meeting and I made some Swaps, I only made 10 but it was still a lot to cut out... 


Here are a few photos of the bits I was cutting out..

and here is the finished product. I was really pleased with how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by
