My swap from Telford - Mini tic tac box with instructions

Hi all

As promised, here is the swap I made for the Stampin' Up! regional training event I attended at the weekend in Telford.

I made 32 (I think!) which means I received lots in return that I will share in another post.

It all started with an awesome box of mini tic tacs...I love the cuteness! 

There was lots of scoring, snipping and sticking but I eventually ended up with a basket full of little boxes that needed some decoration.

The end result.

TIP I used the Word Window Punch to get the sentiments identical in size and then fishtailed one end.

I used a tutorial by Omellie's Designs, you can see it here

Swaps from training day and weekly deals you won't want to miss!

Hi all

I had a fun day on Saturday, training with some of my Stampin' Up! colleagues.  I have lots of new ideas to try out so watch this space!

And as is customary on these occasions, we all made swaps. I received beautiful and clever swaps in return.

Here's mine

Wrapped up they looked like this

I used the envelope punch board to make these in a cute 3x3" size but you can make them using any size you want. And guess what? If you don't already own the envelope punch board, check out the weekly deals below because this week it's on sale! 

First I'll give you all the info you need on supplies for my swap.

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.
