Friday, May 30th, 2008Can I just say this ol’ Stampin’ Up! demonstrator has the best customers and friends. Being a demonstrator running classes and workshops is not just about turning up and showing everyone your lurvly collection of cards and layouts. There can be hours and hours of preparation, cardstock to cut up, designs to prepare, kits to make, etc. [...]
she is back!
Tuesday, May 27th, 2008I have yet to unpack my stash, wash my clothes or organise the layouts I completed, but I am back! I love getting away on scrap camps – even if you only complete one page – you are sure to have lots of fun, laughter and chocolate. There were 71 of us on the retreat; [...]
‘Round up’ the family!
Wednesday, May 21st, 2008Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your emails and comments have been wonderful to read! I am feeling heaps better, still limited in movement, but improving so I am happy – I have a scrap camp to get to over the weekend, so I am having treatment again tomorrow (oh, the torture!!) hopefully it will get [...]
oh woe is me..
Tuesday, May 20th, 2008my poor ‘nursing’ neck has gone out again – so I can’t stamp, drive or look down (am kneeling on the floor typing this) but I have had treatment today so hopefully will be feeling better tomorrow (I have things ready to upload, just can’t physically do it!) Off to put that icepack on again. [...]
love notes
Sunday, May 18th, 2008One of the new editions to this years Stampin’ Up! catalogue was the ‘oh-so-sweet’ pack of Love Notes with matching envelopes. They are the just the perfect size to attach to a gift. At convention, we were shown a great little box to store your Love notes in so I downloaded the template from the demonstrator website, [...]
my weekend so far..
Saturday, May 17th, 2008What is this? A mop? A toy monster? Or perhaps a little 2 and 2 month year old cleaning up her artistic creation labelled ‘what happens when you use mum’s black biro on TWO of the lounge room walls’ *sigh* this girl here has caused me some major grief over the past 2 days. Last [...]
colour challenge 9
Thursday, May 15th, 2008I have been a huge fan of Kristina Werner’s work for a long time, but although I love checking out her challenges, I have never actually completed one – until now! I really enjoyed this – the colours were so bright and fun and I hope my card captured that! If you haven’t come across Kristina’s [...]
a simple photo folio
Wednesday, May 14th, 2008I had all these gorgeous photo’s of the kids taken last year and thought they would be the perfect thing for my mum to carry around with her as a brag book. So I roughly estimated the size of one of the photo’s and cut 2 lengths of 12 x 12 river rock textured cardstock. I made [...]
30 second card tutorial
Monday, May 12th, 2008Yes I wanted to show you that it is possible to make a really quick card that doesn’t look like you spent 30 seconds on it. At the end, I will give you the 2 minute version too. You have to understand something about me – I am a very fast stamper – I don’t mind [...]
