Colour challenge - Spring has sprung!

Hi all

This weeks colour challenge had spring written all over it in my opinion and Stampin' Up! have the perfect stamp set for it.

CAS Colours and Sketches challenge #116

and this is my entry

The From the Garden stamp set is just too adorable. It has matching framelits available as a bundle so you save 15% on the price when purchased separately.

I used Strawberry Slush thick bakers twine and pulled threads from it to give a more delicate finish.

Built for Free Using: My Stampin Blog

Oops! I forgot to add the DSP is All Abloom Paper Stack

Final Week!

Training day - swaps

Hi all

I had the privilege of spending a lovely day crafting with my my wider Stampin' Up! team this weekend. Organised by my fab upline, Fiona and another very talented demo who runs her own successful team, Pip.

It's customary for demo's to  exchange 'swaps' and I received some very beautiful projects which will serve as inspiration to me and my customers.

This was my swap.

I love the bright colours of the All Abloom dsp stack and I popped chocolates inside too!

This design was shown to demo's in America at their catalogue launch and I used the dimensions provided by BJ's Stampin' Spot here.

I like you

Sometimes it just has to be pink and sometimes you just need a bit of glitter and today was one of those days.

It's amazing how some pretty colours can really cheer up your day.

This card doesn't have many elements but I've added some fine details which I think make all the difference.

This is what I used:

Stamps: Hardwood & You're lovely (SAB item free with £45 spend)

Ink and Card: Whisper White, Coastal Cabana & Strawberry slush

Tools and accessories: Big Shot Machine, Deco Labels dies, Decorative Dots Embossing folder (SAB item free with £45 spend) 2-way glue pen, Dimensionals, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, adhesive pearls & Organza Ribbon.

You can order any of these items by contacting me or shop 24/7 at your leisure right here.
