Hi everyone, Hope you have all had a terrific weekend. Today's card is an easel card, there has been quite a few floating around blog land of late. I decided to give it a try last week, my daughter(8yrs) said that would look great with a photo of me and my friend. So this what I have created, we will make another one to give to her friend, as her friend is moving over East in the next few weeks. These would look good as Christmas cards as well, with pictures of your children to give to there grandparents. I have made the scallop circles using the big shot. If you'd like to know any more about the card please leave me a comment. Have a great day

Last week I mentioned that I had got together with a couple of other demonstrators and we shared each others stamps etc. Well the card below is one I created on the weekend using the sets, I had stamped the background of the white piece with stamps from "Extreme Elements" pg  52 $47.95 (6), and stamped the Guitarist in Concord crush, Guitarist can be found on pg 53 $18.95.
I am quite pleased with how this turned out. What do you think?
Till next time Happy stamping

Hi Guys, Here is a card I made the other morning before school. I just love bird houses, this one was featured in the US's Stampin Success magazine for US demonstrators, anyway I just had to try.
I have used Daffodil Delight as the main card with choc chip,old olive and Cherry cobbler. The owl is from forest friends and the circles in the background are from Trendy trees. Enjoy and have a great weekend.

Another week is almost over. I Had a get together with a couple of other demo's yesterday, so we got to share our swaps with each other, share stamp sets and other card ideas and we also did like a show and tell of what we've been up to. Recently I posted different Ideas using the bird punch, this took me ages to do, another demo on one of the forums I am on, offered a sampler page of other ideas for the owl punch, so I purchased it, anyway I thought I'd include the photo here, hope you enjoy and make some.
Happy Stamping

Hi there everyone,
Hope you have all had a lovely weekend. School is back for us this week, I have really enjoyed the slow pace of the holidays, ah well only another 10weeks until the next lot...
Some time ago I bought a tutorial off Becky Roberts, well this past week I have finally got around to trying it out. Next one I do I will have to change the measurements slightly to fit our Envelopes, but as a first go, I am very happy with it. What do you think?

Holidays are almost over. I've finished one novel and almost finished another. I have done a bit of creating, however I still have a NEW set that I have yet to put together and ink, quite disappointed within myself, however I will get there.
Today I am going to show you some projects that I got from my Secret Sister, I have taken part in this on one of the forums I am on, basically we send 2 hand made cards and 1 gift per month for 3 mths, in the last month you send her something off her Wish list, and basically spoil her, its been lots of fun, although at times I've stressed will she like it etc. Her favourite colours are chocolates, kiwi kiss colour, me I am a purple, blueish so very contrast. I will show some of the cards/gifts I have recieved and next month when she knows that I am her secret sister I will show you what I Have made.
Hope you like it.


I will post the other cards at another time.
HOpe you enjoy.

Hi everyone,
Time is flying by so quickly, we are in October already, which means Christmas is less than 12 weeks away... School holidays here for 1 more week, I bet his will just fly by.
Today I am showing you a chart I made up, following a request from a customer who purchased the bird punch, it shows other ways to use it. Hope this gives you some inspiration to pull yours out and give it a try or purchase one.
Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping
