I really like the technique used on these cards, I made 3, each for a slightly different occasion, birthday, anniversary and a thank you…….. but I think it worked well for each of them. Continue reading

Congratulations ~ Bravo Stamp Set
We went to visit the construction site for our new home over the weekend, we are excited with progress, brick and stonework is nearly finished and the inside walls have been painted. We also met our new neighbours who told us they had their first child on Wednesday and signed and completed all the paperwork and got the keys for their new home the following day!!!! It is the perfect opportunity for a card 🙂 Continue reading
One Design…….. Four cards.
September and October are busy months for birthdays in my family, a Sister-in-law and a Great Niece in September and a Granddaughter in October. I saw a design for a card with a ‘dangly’ star and plenty of bling made by Connie Stewart which would be perfect for the ‘littlies’, then I worked thru a version for my Sister-in-Law………. here are the results.

First cards from my new space…….
Every month I have a wonderful group of ladies who come to my classes and workshops and place orders for products so they can continue to create when there are no classes to come to! I like to thank each and every one of them for their enthusiasm and support by making a card. Sometimes it is a full card, sometimes an 3×3 or sometimes a ‘business’ card size. Whatever I do it is always with heartfelt appreciation. Continue reading

Swaps for Convention ~ part 2
Earlier this week I shared the first of my 2 designs for swaps at this weeks’ Stampin’ Up convention in Salt Lake City, UT and promised to share the 2nd design. Although we are still in the middle of July and the 100F Texas heat is beating down, it is not too soon, in the card-making world, to start thinking about Christmas/Holiday cards. So my second design has a very ‘Chrismassy’ feel about it. Continue reading
Swaps for Stampin’ Up Convention
Every year during July, Stampin’ Up holds it annual convention. This is open to demonstators and guests, and is an opportunity for demonstrators from all over the US as well as other countries to get together in Salt Lake City, UT with Corporate leaders to (amongst other things) recognise acheivement, to hear and see new products and ideas.
Convention 2014 is called ‘Inspire, Create, Share’ and one one of the best parts is to swap card ideas with your fellow demonstrators. This year I have made 2 designs (about 25 of each) that I shall be swapping over the next few days. This is the first one and I shall share the second one in a couple of days. Continue reading
Thank you……….
‘Thank you’ is probably the first phrase we are taught as children – it certainly was in our home and I observed my sister and her eldest daughter do the same when they started their families. It takes but a few moments to say but it can have so much impact. I decided to share my ‘thank you’ cards I sent to my customers in June. Continue reading
