a little birthday hi for a young friend of my son, whose birthday is coming up soon x

just moved

I was requested to make a just moved or new home card, so armed with my good neighbours set and a little tweaking from a card I saw in the stampin'up gallery I came up with this little number , the colours where also requested. xxx

perfume box for my mum

Hi all, yesterday my lovely friend Jane did a mission for me, I needed something to house a large packet of seeds I had bought as a gift for another friend (yes I have two friends lol)and she came up with a lovely item for me which you can see here Then my mum said she would like something to house her perfumes and bits and pieces in to match a tissue box I had given her from our craft day, which Jane had also made, so inspired by Jane and the knowledge that yes I can do this ha ha , this is what I came up with ,unfortunately I didnt have the exact papers Jane had used so I wheeled the its beautiful wheel onto same colour cardstock ,of course me being me it didnt turn out quite right so I ended up using the only packet of peel offs I now possess on the corners,I havent felt the need to use them since using stampin'up products , so now after the essay a picture of the item xxx

project

Here is the project I did for our day, a little basket based on an idea from an easter basket I had recieved from the lovely Jenny moors, chocs for them to put in after they had made theirs, after all we crafters need our chocs(this one does anyway)lol, a Z fold card and a card using the lovely whimsical wings stampset and wonderful words. hope you like! xxx

Hi all, Jane and I have done our first craft workshop day! Phew am I glad thats over, although I have to say i think it went well and all our folks seemed to have a great time. Lots of work and planning but well worth it, thanks must go to Jane who did an awful lot of the prepping (although she will tell you herself she likes doing it) if I get it right you will now see a few photos from the day xxx
