European Convention as i shall be flying out to Germany on Thursday.  there are a stack of green M&S mint tins which i found in my old bedroom at my nans goodness knows why she had 10 tins but hey i am sure i can do something with that?! lol not sure what or when but if i do i will share with you.

Festive Friday!

Good morning and welcome to the first Festive Friday post;  today is a very simple layout.  A card that is simple to replicate so brilliant for mass production, which is what you need during the festive season.

Its a crumb cake card blank that i have inked around the edges in the matching ink. I have also used crumb cake for the first layer of the mat with very vanilla on top both cut from the Labels Collection Framelits and the Christmas tree is cut with the Holiday Collection Framelits in the gorgeous Champagne Glimmer paper from the seasonal catalogue.  I love the glimmer paper i want to paper the whole living room in it, Mr.C is not so keen on that idea so i may settle for a small bit around my desk, its a fab glittery effect and it doesn't shed which is a major bonus in my eyes; clean glitter!

The DSP is from the festival of prints paper stack which is perfectly sized for cards or photo mats for scrapbooking, and a cherry cobbler seam binding ribbon to top it off. 

Hope you like it

Until next time

Apologies….

Apologies again for my absence; lots of things happening at home including family illnesses as well as my own, so the blog had to take a back seat for a while; although i have been crafting just not posting.  My saying has always been in times of stress ….. Craft!
I do have lots of projects to share with you and some exciting news that i cannot share just yet, but i promise to reveal all as soon as i can. 

I will be off to the European Stampin’ Up! Convention in Mainz Germany next week so i shall set up some scheduled posts to show you the swaps i have made to exchange with the other demonstrators.

I am also planning to post on a Friday until Christmas with a ‘Festive Friday’ Post starting tomorrow; Here is a sneak peak of what is coming tomorrow

Until next time

Good Morning all sorry for missing last week i got struck down with a horrible bug that developed into a few infections ended up with so many pills to take i must have rattled!! Am on the way back to normal now and have been actually managing to craft after a week of going no where near my table?!  I had a Stampin’ Up! delivery and i took me two days to even open the box!!

Here is my desk this morning;

i spent yesterday morning tidying it up before i could start work because previously it looked like this;

Sorry for the blurry picture this was some of the contents of that delivery!

 

Today i will mostly be making swaps for the European Stampin’ Up! convention that i am attending next week in Mainz, Germany so i will hop around WOYWW this eve :)
