During my Sunday night team challenge, we decided to focus on the theme of ‘Creatures’; think Donkeys, Turtles, Birds, Sharks etc etc. I decided to crack open a set that I purchased in a promotion before Christmas but had yet to ink up. There are the cutest little bird stamps in the set. So I made a Quite Curvy Spring Wreath. I coupled this set with the gorgeous Hydrangea… Read More »

I took part in a quick Facebook challenge today called Case-ing Tuesday. The challenge co-ordinator puts up a card to case every week and we make our own version inspired by the card. The original card uses Happiness Blooms so I was inspired to mix it up a little and make a Happiness Blooms Thank you card. Here was the original card from the Stampin’ Up! catalogue and the… Read More »
I set myself a challenge to do some simple stamping this year. It is a real challenge for me but a challenge that Stampin’ Up! themselves started at our last Onstage, so I had to give it a go. I wanted to do some simple stamping with Amazing Life, which was a set we received in our goody bags last Onstage. I don’t think my cards or my style is… Read More »
It’s the last Saturday of the month, so it must be the Stampin’ Creative Blog Hop. As we’re all busy ladies during the summer – and three of the team are off seeing the sights in.

I recently celebrated my 5 Years as a Stampin’ Up Demonstrator – Happy Anniversary to me! Like many other demonstrators, I joined for the demonstrator discount.

I also wanted to earn products for free too and therefore pretty quickly started a business. I have… Read More »

Are you a ribbon hoarder like me? I started a little project earlier in the week and due to our un-seasonal snow, I have finally had a chance to complete it today. An In-Color ribbon hairband!! I do tend to stock up somewhat on ribbon and I love looking at it, but it needs to be a special project to use it. This has somewhat backfired for me as now… Read More »
