I am packing my bags!!
Monday, March 31st, 2008Today I rang Stampin’ Up! in Sydney, asking them to confirm that I was indeed off to Palm Cove on the Incentive Trip (nothing like leaving things to the last minute) So yes girls, I, along with 7 other Elite Stampers http://elitechallenges.wordpress.com/ and then a great more other demonstrators around Australia (not sure exactly who though) will [...]
faux linen and more
Saturday, March 29th, 2008A couple of weeks ago I ran a faux linen class and this is one of the cards we made – I know its a bit late, but let’s blame the Easter bunny and his haul of chocolate eggs for keeping me away from my blog (my hands were busy unwrapping those eggs!) Did I [...]
our beautiful coastline
Thursday, March 27th, 2008We have finally returned from our Easter break, enjoyed at our little shack in the beautiful coastal town of Apollo Bay and honestly, I don’t think there is a more beautiful coastline to be found anywhere else, than what we have in Victoria. It is rugged and beautiful and so powerful. My children just love it and even my [...]
My dream..
Thursday, March 20th, 2008I hear the crash of the waves upon the sand, white froth clinging to the tiny grains of perfect creamy soft sand, the whisper of the wind as it blows through the gently swaying palm trees caressing their branches, and the soft giggling of talented stampers as they create together amongst this majestic scenery. What [...]
Some quick creations..
Wednesday, March 19th, 2008Phew, I am trying to catch my breath and have all these things I want to get onto this blog, finding the time is the problem. If only I could telepathically send my ideas and photo’s to the blog and somehow they would be adjusted in photoshop and spell checked all for me, how wonderful would that [...]
faux silk
Sunday, March 16th, 2008At my techniques class last week, I taught 2 new techniques, faux silk and faux linen. I love both these looks as they are something different you can create with not a great deal of fuss. This is our faux silk card that we all made and everyone was so happy with it.
All items by [...]
my ‘combo’
Saturday, March 15th, 2008We all have a favourite stamp set and I would say most of us have a colour combination (The Combo) that we love and that we know will work with anything. When you are looking for inspiraton for a card and all your ideas have conveniently decided to hide away in the unatainable recesses of your [...]
the great move and oh, some stamping too!
Monday, March 10th, 2008Once you have a baby, there are things you just tend to collect, obviously lots of toys and clothes, but big things too, like the staples of babyhood – the cot, bouncer, change table etc. Somehow for me these things have followed me since Joel was born 9 years ago. I just never part with them, [...]
convention here we come!
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008Stampin Up! has been one of the best things I ever took on. Almost a year down the track, I have a team of 16, a successful business, and most importantly, have made loads of friends. My classes are more of an opportunity to catch up with old friends and have a laugh and although it [...]
a week in review..
Monday, March 3rd, 2008Wow, you go ‘missing’ for a few days and everyone comes looking for you! Thanks girls for all your emails wondering where I was and if all is ok. I have been beyond busy with the end of sale-a-bration (thank God it is over!) and must have tried to sit down a dozen times to [...]
