Monday, June 22nd, 2009I was lucky enough to receive the gorgeous stamp set Petal Pizzaz at our Stampin’ Up convention and have to say I have been having a ball with it. I used it at a stamp-a-stack I held recently and these are the cards we made.

water coloured roses
Wednesday, June 17th, 2009I was thinking of what to share with you today and then I remembered that I had not yet shown you my watercoloured roses!

Trendy Trees
Monday, June 15th, 2009I have just had the nicest weekend, I spent Saturday with some of my stampin’ friends – thanks Kristy for letting us all visit and play – and then Sunday was spent with school friends while our multitude of children (well it seemed that way as there were 11 kids there) ran amuck!

thank you and some creations too..
Monday, June 1st, 2009Thank you everyone for you lovely comments, emails and cards, I was really touched by everyone’s thoughts and prayers. Things are settling down at home, although there is a hole in our lives that our wonderful Dan used to fill: sadly it only took 5 months for Motor Neuron disease to take him away from us. [...]
