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

Papillion Potpourri meets Christmas

Good Afternoon All

Hope you're all well and well on the way to preparing for Christmas!  It will soon be upon us, will sneak up on us without us even realising.

Today's class was such fun, we made our last Christmas card of the year and also a birthday card, combining a few stamp sets and using butterflies for Christmas, why not I say they are beautifull after all and that went well with the wording on today's Christmas card.

We used a few different techniques in class today and some were more adventurous with their cards, stepping away from my example in small ways, always lovely to see the confidence of these class members as my cards are after all just the example.  We did some masking and stencilling for the birthday card and used our dies for the Christmas card to make a frame - all good fun and requiring just a little concentration.

Take a peak and let me know what you think!

Stamp set's used: Beautifull Season and Papillion Potpourri & En Francais

Punches used: 1 3/4" circle and Bird Builder

Sugar Cookies

Good Evening All

Hope you've had a good weekend and are ready for the week ahead.

I thought that I'd show you some of the sugar cookies that I made for the fair on Thursday, they went down a treat and that was despite the fact that I had no sample, as my husband had eaten it!  How rude!

I thoroughly enjoyed making both the cookies and the toppers for them, they got many admiring looks and were nearly all gone by the end of the night.
