April's Customer appreciation card

Hi all

To show my appreciation, every order receives a hand stamped thank you from me. Please keep in mind when you're ordering online and choose 'no contact' I won't be able to send you a little something!

When you order from me this month, you'll receive this:

It will come to you un-signed to use however you wish!

Stampin' Up! regional training -team goody bags

Hi all

Today is one of my favourite days of the year, Stampin' Up! regional training. It's my chance to meet 100's of other demo's, play with new products, craft and get lots of business tips.

There's 2 things us demo's like to make for these kinds of events:
1) swaps...I will blog about these next week :)
2) team gifts, which I'll show you now!

A little something to keep them going, chewing gum, a little box of chocs (obviously) and a bottle water because crafting is thirsty work...

I used Birthday Bash DSP and Amazing Birthday, notice how versatile Amazing Birthday is? I cut the 'birthday to you' part of just left the 'happy' for the gift bag tag and I think the images are pretty generic. I love to get extra mileage out of my stamps.

I'll be back with more from training very soon...

Sketch Challenge - Happy Hour! Using Stampin' Up! products.

Hi all

My kids are still off school so maybe that's what led me to think of cocktails so early in the day :) or maybe knowing finer weather is on the way. I'll let you draw your own conclusions! Either way I hope you like what I did with this week's sketch challenge from:

CAS Colours and Sketches blog #119

If you like to create your own 'Happy Hour' here's what you'll need:

Colour challenge - Stampin' Up! in colours

Hi all

This week's challenge is a colour challenge using some of the gorgeous Stampin' Up! in colours.

I decided to create a stamped background using these colours including some 'stamping off' to vary the intensity of the ink.

Blackberry bliss is such a beautiful colour, I just had to make it the main feature of this card.
