Challenge card..

Tonight was the last night to enter in the Challenge card for our Team, the card needed to be a Christmas card using non traditional colours and using new product,
Mine is similar to one that I saw on the web, however I saw this cool technique done using out new tule, and heating the centre of it with the heat tool to make it gather, this is what I have done on this card also I have put an antique brad on it and a jewel in the star. What do you think, these colours certainly aren't my usual colours however I am happy with how it looks.
Have a great long weekend

In Between working most days I have had the opportunity to play some more with my new products, Today's card is a case from our Global Stampin'Up! forum, I'm unsure who the original creator was however I have changed it slightly and used some of the Champagne glimmer paper out of the current Holiday catalogue, it is gorgeous...
Have a great day.

Tahlia's cards she made

Tahlia has been invited to so many parties of late.. Below are the 2 cards that she has made for Girls in the coming weeks. She drew the pictures on scrap paper, let me know what colours she wanted to use and then I prepared it for her and she put them together. She has done a great job. What do you think?

The card Below uses the Stamp Set Postage Due this is found on Pg 108 of the new Main Catty Clear set is $29.95 ( 4 stamps) or Wood mounted $37.95. I don't own this set yet, however a friend who went to Convention, kindly stamped me a few images, to have a play with - Thanks Wendy. The Second Picture below is the NEW Cookie stamps, they come with a recipe as well - Bonus, I just changed the flours, to make them Gluten Free and they lasted almost a week ( I hid them in the cupboard) These can be found in both the Holiday Catalogue on pg 15 $29.95 for 3 and pg 161 of the main Catalogue. Lots of fun for both Adults and Children.

Tahlia's Birthday

Last weekend it was Tahlia's 10th birthday, my baby has reached double figures..Her birthday fell on Father's Day this year and as a family we went ten pin bowling which was heaps of fun, on the friday before that she had several friends over for hotdogs a movie and a couple slept over. Here are a few photo's of the night including the cake which she decorated herself...

New Catalogues have started

You can view them online by going to www.genevra.stampinup.net and clicking on products.
I had my launch last Thursday night. I had 8 lovely ladies attend, they all had fun trying new products, taking part in a quiz ( which was too much like school) and catching up with others. A fun night had by all I think. My son prepared the snacks, Lemon Curd tarts and Caramel Tarts.
Here are some pictures of the night...

Will show you more later, the 2 different card ideas are the make and takes done on the night.
