Kaleidoscope Flowers

I didn't actually make these this week. I made them a couple of weeks ago. But since I'm on a roll with my posting I thought I'd show them to you! Cased from Amy White's Sweet Pea version.

Knock at the Door!!

As promised here is the Xmas wreath adorned with many embellishments. This was oh so much fun! Sam enjoyed it too and is currently decorating another one! Made a door and used Stampin' Up Hodgepodge Hardware for the letterbox and door knob!

Crafting Fun

I had a great fun crafting day today with my good friend Tina. She missed my party and so I showed her the card we made and we made some more. We then played with my new Woodware Clear Magic Gingerbread Man and Bubble Wreath sets, at last. Here is a card that I made with the Gingerbread Man set images with my 9 year old son, Sam for his best friend's birthday tomorrow. I adore these two sets and they were such fun to do. I coloured the Gingerbread Man and House in with Promarkers and used Stampin' Up Riding Hood Red cardstock and retired "Candy Lane" papers (thought that was appropriate!!) and the very very gorgeous Real Red 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon. I am very pleased with the result and will definitely be making more cards with this set, Xmas ones too!! I will post the wreaths when I have made them into cards!! LOL!! Not enough hours in the day...

Wedding Sweet, Always Elegant and Style Beautiful

I held my first Stampin' Up party a week ago and these are the designs I showcased using the new Stampin' Up "Wedding Sweet" and "Style Beautiful" stamp sets and the colours from the Elegant Soiree papers - Baja Breeze and Crumb Cake (I didn't have the Elegant Soiree papers then! so these are a retired set "Parisian Breeze" which used the same colours):




And these are two that I demonstrated, the first used the new Stampin' Up stamp set "Style Beautiful" with the new Stampin' Up papers "Lap of Luxury" in Concord Crush and Pretty in Pink and embellished with the gorgeous new Stampin' Up Basic Rhinestone Jewels and Concord Crush 1/2" Stitched Poly Ribbon and the second one combined "Wedding Sweet" with the "Always Elegant" stamp set in Baja Breeze and Crumb Cake and a little of the new Marina Mist 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon, also used the new Modern Label punch which I love. The latter was the make and take. They went down very well!


I also "wowed" them with a handmade teapot for the hostess (which I forgot to photograph! Silly me...I'll have to borrow it back to take a photo!!) and showed them how to make this Xmas snowflake decoration which I saw on YouTube. It really shows off double-sided papers. These were from Christmas Jingle. And here it is!!
