Happy Birthday to Me!!

Hello Dear Reader; just a quick post from me today as i have shopped and am now ready to drop as today is my birthday so Mr.C took me into Cambridge so that i could enjoy larger shops and fill my wardrobe a little.

This is a little cupcake decorating kit with sprinkles and cupcake cases from Waitrose, and then some cute decoration picks made using the 'create a cupcake stamp set and matching punch.  I thought this would be a cute small gift for the baker in your life. 

Don’t forget that the retirement list is out and if there is anything you NEED on it then you need to get in quick with your orders as things are selling out already!!

Up and Away….

Hello dear reader; hope you are well?  I have spent the day shopping with Mr.C as he has had the day off today, i am all shopped out now and having a well earned rest. 

Todays project uses the Up Up and Away stamp set; i love this set its such a ‘happy’ set; i still get excited seeing a hot air balloon in the sky you never expect them do you so its always a nice surprise.

I have used the 2011-2013 In Colours here I’m really going to miss them when they retire at the end of the year, they’re such fresh spring-like colours.  The background was embossed with the polka dot folder and the clouds where made using the cupcake punch finished off with a bit of bakers twine. 

I shall be playing with lots of lovely new stamps this weekend and i have more due Monday – Shh! don’t tell Mr.C!  I hope you have a great weekend and I'll be back on Monday.

**Remember between January 22nd and March 22nd 2013 Stampin’ Up! are giving away FREE products for all orders over £45!!  Call me now to place your order!!**

Cupcakes

Hello i am so behind with blogging so i am going to attempt to catch up as life just got in the way and then i got bloggers block! BUT i have been  crafting so there is plenty to show you, starting with March’s paper craft class which was based on Cupcakes!

We made two cards and a pillow box gift box using the Create a Cupcake stamp set and matching builder punch, these are only available until the 30th of April as they’re from the Spring Mini so if you NEED them then you best get your order in asap as we don’t know if they will be back again.

 

And so on to the class;

Here they are all grouped together i like to display the night’s projects on a cake stand just because they look pretty and i have a ‘thing’ for cake stands lol! i think i own at least five now!

The Colour scheme was Crumb Cake, Rose Red and Pink Pirouette, with Whisper White.

 

I love how the builder punch makes it so much quicker to get these cards done no fiddly cutting out.

 

 

 

And here’s a close up for you.

You can see that on the simple card and the pillow boxes i popped a tiny pearl on the cherries – these caused tons of problems for the ladies as they kept flying across the room! lol

 

 

Don’t forget that the current Spring mini finishes on the 30th of April 2012 and all products from the mini will be unavailable to order after that, and we don’t know if they will return to us in the main catty in October yet, so if there is anything that you need  then email me today to get your order in :)

Spring Mini Blog Hop!

 

Hello thank you for joining me today if you are expecting my usual workdesk Wednesday pic pop back later and I'll have loaded that up too.

First today i am taking part in a Blog Hop organised on ILWS forum to celebrate the fact that we have an EXTRA Mini Catalogue this year so not only do we have all the gorgeous lovely's that this brand new catalogue launched today brings we also have another one to look forward to later in the year also!! How fab is that??!!

Well you may ask what is a Blog Hop?? We all get to together and link our posts in a big circle of inspiration and loveliness, so pull up a chair settle your self with a drink and enjoy.

For those that have joined me from Laura HELLO!! and if you would like to start from the first post you can find it at Alison’s Blog.  Right on to my project.

 

My project today uses a brand new Stamp set and co-coordinating Punch so nice and quick as the punch does all the cutting out for you.  {lazy moi?}

I made these cake picks for my famous triple chocolate filled muffins that my friends request for every visit and birthday i had my two best friends over this week so i thought i would pretty up our cakes with these simple picks.

I used another new punch the 2-3/8” (6cm) Scallop punch to punch the base out of pink pirouette DSP from the Subtles Stack one for each side of the cocktail stick.  I then stamped the cupcake frostings from the Create a Cupcake Stamp Set in rose red with perfect plum sprinkles, and then stamped a cupcake case in crumb cake with a perfect plum ribbon.  Both were then punched out with the Cupcake Builder Punch and mounted on to the Scallop Circles, i finished off the picks with a tail of pretty in pink grosgrain ribbon.

 

I hope you like my project and will continue with the Blog Hop the next blog on your stop is Sara and if you would like a full list of the participating blogs then head back to Alison Enjoy your hop i am off to hop round everyone else’s blogs now
