Create a Cupcake

Good Morning All

Hope you're all well, even though it's a little chilly outside in the UK.....ok, call that a LOT chilly!

I thought that I'd show you a little cupcake card today, one that was made for a special lady for her birthday, I even took out my mini sewing machine, not something I do very often and only on paper!

Clockworks & Creative Elements

Good Evening

Here we are at the end of the weekend, what a shame......feel like another 2 days would be just perfect right now!

Yesterday in class we used the clockworks set and what a gorgeous set this is, there are so, so many uses for it but for class I decided to go monochrome and again, this could be used for a men's card - what a bonus!  Two weeks in a row.

Our second card used Creative elements set and I have to say, this is a set I find drawn to again and again as there are so many beautifull things that can be done with it.

Stamp set used: Clockworks
Punches used: 1/2", 3/4", 1" & 1 1/4" Circle punches & Word window & Modern label
Embossing folder: from my stash

Stamp set used: Creative Elements & Papillon Potpourri

The Open Sea and a little Valentines!

Good Evening All

Hope you've had a great weekend, mine has been busy, busy but very enjoyable all the same.

Yesterday was the beginning of our 2013 classes and we had great fun as always!  Some were a little rusty or said they were, some were a little late arriving after having forgotten about class.......... but by the time we'd gotten around to the second card and after a couple of cups of tea and a bit of a natter, everyone was well on their way again and all left with two "perfect" cards:-)

I decided that since we don't usually make that many men's cards during the year, we'd start the year off making one which went down very well  and also since we're heading toward Valentines Day I thought that we'd get ahead of ourselves and be very organised.......makes a change.

Take a peak and let me know what you think.

Happy New Year......a little belated

Good Morning All

Happy New Year to you all, I hope that you've all had a good start to the year so far.  Mine was fab as I've just returned from a break away in South Africa visiting family and friends.  Only wish that we had the same weather here as we did there but sadly we returned to the cold and snow from the heat and sunshine!

Here are a couple of pictures from the top of Table Mountain, Cape Town.

Some exciting things coming up this year in the world of Stampin Up! so please pop by every now and again and take a look.

Keep warm and safe

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Morning All

Well here we are with about 12 sleeps to Christmas, cant believe that it's snuck up on me that quickly.

I thought that I'd share a little Stampin' Up! fun with you all before you go off and enjoy your holidays with family and friends.

Happy Stamping and Happy Holidays
