Mini Launch last night

Last night was my mini launch, I like to have it a couple of days before the new one starts so that my customers have a chance to buy any last minute needs from last mini.
Last night was anice cosy group, all had fun.Amanda won the lucky door prize whichwas a sample 6x6 of the new papers. It was Tenielle's first time to one of these events and am sure she enjoyed it.
Below is pictures of the table set up before we began, with the ladies  and the projects we made, the flower one we used the scented embossing powders. Others chose the cherries from button buddies to use the scented powder.
Have a great weekend...


Sorry can't seem to find the flower one will post at a later date.

Check this Never Ending card out..

Each month a group of us get together for catch up and to make something, This time we went to Carolines and she showed us how to make a Never Ending card, well it looked far too complicated for me, however I did it, I then came home and googled it to find one made with a stamp set I own and this is the one below, it shows the front and then thru the next levels. I cased this card from lily by gillly website. These were so much fun I have also made a Rubics cube one, originally seen at Christie's creative corner.
Stamp set used wasNature Walk, and the paper that went with it last year.
 Have a great weekend.

Hubby's birthday card

Hubby's birthday was last weekend. He is right into hotrods ( currently building his own) etc I was able to get this stamp set from a friend after she visited the states, I knew it was perfect for him.
It certainly isn't the model that we have. He was very happy with it all the same.
Have a great weekend.

Card made for a Challenge

Over on Stampin' Connections in our team part of the forum, someone runs a challenge each month. Not quite sure how to post the sketch of the challenge, this is my take on it anyhow. Nice and simple male card, the texture on the card under the layering is made with the ink pad stamped randomly on the front of the card.
Have a good weekend.

Last month of Summer Mini and Sale-a-bration...

Hi everyone,
Time has flown, sorry for not updating my blog. Just coming in today to let you know March is the last month to take advantage of Sale-a-bration (FREE product for spending $100 p/h extra) and the Summer mini. In the current Summer mini the stocking stamp set and punch found on pg9 (stamp set clear for 7 stamps is $42.95 and wood $53.95) and stocking punch is $33.95 definetly  will not be carried over to the new catalogue in September and same with The Simply Adored range on pgs 6 and 7. If you are after any of these items now is the time to purchase them before they run out.
Today's cards you would have seen in prior post, however just to show you what you can also do with the stocking punch other than for stockings.  You can use them as baby booties, santa's boots going down a chimney,and a hobby horse just to name a few. Google the stamp set to come up with more ideas. Have a great day, I look forward to hearing from you soon.
