Talking to everyone in school today about their activities and achievements over the week (you know the cleaning out of the cupboards, preparing the dinners for the next month, etc.) I realise I've done very little!!!!!
Well that's not strictly true......my blog is now completed, I've made 14 cards, 8 bookmarks, 6 gift card envelopes, booked 4 workshops(YIPPEE!)..........Oh dear it's all crafting!.......Think I might need to spend tomorrow redoing my to do list and adding some household jobs!
Really enjoyed the craft show on Friday. My cousin Sally, her daughter Katie (13yrs)and I all took part in a Decopatch workshop, very therapeutic. Katie was so enamoured she bought loads of mdf hearts to have a crafting party for her birthday. She's even roped me into help and become a beauty therapist for the evening..... Am sure there will be photos to follow after event!
Here's the heart I made.
Back to carding. Very excited to show you over the week some of the cards I've been making with my Stampin Up starter kit. I have to say though there are not many of my ideas on here, just ones I have seen on ILWS and adapted.....think I have been too keen to produce volumes of cards for show, when I do my workshops. So am looking forward to spending this weekend creating my ideas.
Such a simple card but think it looks so pretty. Ideal for the many men I find so hard to make cards for. Left greeting off again as haven't any Stampin Up greetings yet!
- Used Whisper White Card. A5 size
- Stamped Sail Away boat onto a tissue with the Basic Black, Classic Stampin Pad
- Then with wet paint brush carefully tear the tissue until happy with shape
- Used the Night of Navy, Grosgrain Ribbon
Cant wait to show you tomorrow what I've done with the Vintage Vogue set.
Night, night now. x

ReplyDeleteA really lovely card Pippa. I am so pleased that you have become a Stampin Up Demonstrator. It will be great having somebody local to buy from - their stamps, punches, paper - well absolutely everything really are just beautiful. My order will be winging its way over shortly. Wish you all the luck in the world with your new venture.
