Hello! I am Alive!

Hello i am alive, i am very sorry for the delay in my blogging, almost a month now unfortunately life got in the way.  The Camp household has been very poorly firstly it was me who was ill with tonsil-blooming-itis for the 1000th time!  Then it was the turn of the tinies, firstly little baby H has had horrible teething problems and then infection after infection and has lost lots of weight poor little thing, she still has an awful cough now.  And then M has got this awful cough too i have been assured by the doctors that there is tons going around and so it seems every little one has some sort of bug at the moment! O well that is the end of my griping, on to the good stuff.

So in early November i had a workshop at home with some of my ‘mummy’ friends to show them just what it was all this Stampin’ Up! malarkey is all about! lol  Now they’re not crafters {although i think i have one converted!} so i had to think of simple projects that still had the wow! factor here is what i came up with;

{photos clockwise from top; project packs all ready, our three projects, perfect plum bauble card, Tree Trimmings mini card, Robin Bookmark, the table all set up with thank you gifts}

We had lots of fun and everyone was really impressed with the results that they achieved with the simplest of steps to get there.

If you fancy having a workshop for you and your friends then just contact me.

Yet more Snowflakes!

Yep another snow flake card to share today.  This time i stamped randomly a piece of Confetti White, with snow flakes in Baja Breeze, Crumb Cake and Soft Suede, cut it into a square blank added some ruffled Baja Seam Binding and mounted the sentiment from ‘Contempo Christmas’ on Crumb Cake.

 

I really like this one i think i may use these colour ways for my own Christmas Cards this year.

More Snowflakes

More snowflakes again today, i have had this card in my head for days but my stamp set only arrived on Wednesday so i didn’t have time to get in down on card till the weekend.

I randomly stamped a piece of Confetti White cardstock with snowflakes in Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, and Soft Suede Inks.  i then cut it down and mounted the panel on to a 5” square blank of Crumb Cake, finishing off with some Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding (also new this catty), the sentiment is from ‘Contempo Christmas’ in Cherry Cobbler ink.

Snow Flakes

Hello another Christmas card today, and still not in traditional colours!

I have used the ‘Serene Snowflakes’ stamp set in Crumb Cake (again lol!) and Soft Suede, the card blank is Crumb Cake with mounted Confetti White cardstock panels.

The sentiment is from the ‘Contempo Christmas’ stamp set in Soft Suede and finished with a bow of the new completely stroke-able Very Vanilla Seam Binding.

Baubles!!

Morning All!, these last few weeks i have been putting together my yearly Christmas card portfolio for my customers too see my offerings for the season and hopefully order some! lol

So here is a quick post with one of the cards i have made using the Contempo Christmas Stamp set and the matching Ornament Punch.

With this card i went for a more modern feel with a muted colour scheme of Baja Breeze, Crumb Cake and Soft Suede.

I hope that you like it?

Christmas in July ……Part One.

Evening all, i hope that this finds you well?  Sorry for the lack of posts last week.  I went to the Peterborough Training Day organised by Monica and Bekka on the Sunday and enjoyed myself immensely but came home completely shattered, which obviously was touch paper for a lurking bug that had been threatening me to pounce and wipe me out!  I spent most of last week feeling sorry for myself , whilst trying to carry on with a very busy week which included Milli’s last day a Pre-School (Sob!). but i did manage to fit in a few hours crafting this weekend which i will share with you later but first…….My Swaps!

I had more notice for this training day but that didn’t mean that making my swaps was any easier, in fact it was harder because i kept changing my mind on what i was going to do!  But that does mean that i will have some extra projects to share with you in the future.

So firstly i made a pouch for sweets using the Top Note die for the Big Shot and the SU Ornament Punch.  I chose an unusual colour way of Certainly Celery and Pretty in Pink (partly because i had lots of these colours left over from my wedding invites earlier in the year, and partly because i like it! lol) even the sweet wrappers were pink and green!

   

But i only had enough sweets to make 6!! so i had to go back to the drawing board.  I asked my lovely friend Caroline if i could borrow her Pillow Box die for the Big Shot and kindly she agreed and even drove it all the way to me even though it is nearly an hours drive!!

SO……using the same colour way i sat myself in front of the TV with my Big Shot and cut 20 in each colour then using the bauble from the Contempo Christmas stamp set i stamped 20 of each in matching SU Ink.  I assembled them with a belly band of DSP from the Subtles Stack, and here they are;

 

I think that they look pretty good if i do say so myself! LOL  i shall be back soon with part two and the swaps that i received in return plus photos of the gorgeous items on display in the Inspiration Area.

Until next time
