{It's almost here...}

Hi everyone, schools out and I'm starting to wind down before I wind back up again for Christmas day!

Here is a video of some cards I made for a friend of mine.  She loves giving personalised cards to her child's teachers.  So all of these had teacher's names added on to them after I took the photo.


There are still some fab bargains to be had in the clearance.

{Fab weekend at Onstage in Telford}

Hi there stamping friends, I am still recovering from the wonderfully busy weekend I had at the Stampin' Up! get together in Telford.  It is an event organised by Stampin' Up! to inspire, educate and inform us demonstrators.   Having been to a few of these events now it is also a lovely time of catching up with friends and making new ones.

Thanks to you my lovely customers and those signed up through me, I was able to attend Centrestage.  This is an exclusive event for those who are ranked at Silver Elite and above.  We were treated to some additional training delivered by the amazing Bonnie Farley, a yummy dinner and a fabulous new bag.

I sat with the lovely Mikaela and my upline Monica who particlarly enjoyed the custard that came with the crumble.  My children were pleased with the jar of huge bubblegums I came home with.  I was so honoured to spend an evening with some of the highest ranking demonstrators in the country and the world!

The next day I sat with 2 of my downline - one of whom is my sister and was experiencing Onstage for the first time, and some demonstrator friends, including Julie, who I'm organising an overnight retreat with for next year - watch this space!

Here we are with new stamp sets we won, Bonnie showing us her stash of chocolate and a sneak peek at a new stamp and dies that will be coming in January!


Here are the swaps I received from fellow demonstrators.


Thank you for your continued support, I really do love what I do, sharing and inspiring you to be creative while using beautiful stamps and tools.

And on that note, I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of these new dies, I can not wait to have a play with them.


And remember that there is 25% off selected stamp sets for the whole of November!

Here is a video giving you some inspiration to make your own... it also features my daughter as she wanted to be in on the action too!

Some of the dies used are not available any more, sorry about that... however they may be found via auction sites or with a bit of tinkering you can use what you have already.

So, this is my first foray into the world of Planners.  I've purchased this A5 Filofax to start using as a diary and planner for my day to day life and business.  
NB This post contains affiliate links, which means I receive a percentage if you make a purchase using this link. 

I chose this gorgeous red one, I wanted a bright colour as I thought it would be harder to loose!


The Filofax already contained numbered divider cards, however I needed to make some monthly index cards, so I've done this in Artful Stampin style!  


Here is the video...

{Swap making - flowers and polkas}

Been trying to make a start ton some swaps for a Stampin' Up! event coming up in November.

I am totally in love with this colour combo and the Flourish Thinlets Die.  The die brush makes it so easy to extract the delicate die cuts from the metal dies.  Saves all the faffing I used to do with wax paper!


Here are some pics, and below is a video of me making a few.

{Day Craft Retreat and some big news!}

Hi all,

This time last Saturday we were nearing the end of a day Craft Retreat fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator  Julie Forbes and I had organised.  We had 26 crafty ladies working busily of some fab projects, and getting a head start on Christmas ideas.

Here is a picture of us all together, and some of the beautiful paper flower wreaths they made...



Now for the big news!  Lots of mine and Julie's customers have been asking ask to organise an overnight retreat.  So we're testing the waters with a 2 day 1 night event in November 2017, the 17th and 18th of November to be exact.  It will be happening in beautiful mid Wales and will be a haven for crafters and a relaxing couple of days from the hussle and bussle of life!

Save the date and watch this space for more information!

Here is a video of some of the swaps the ladies made

{Long time no blog...More Christmas inspiration}

Mahoosive apologies for not blogging lately!
I've been busy with back to school days and getting back into routine.  I'm afraid that hasn't included blogging and social media routine.

There have been a few bits of news since I last blogged, the Autumn/Winter catalogue is now live and we're starting say the C word a bit more as we're thinking of cards and decor for the upcoming season.  I've been planning a fabulous project using Project Life not just to create a memory album, but an advent hanging that you could put small gifts in, and some cards using the new PL cards. Watch this space!  However in the mean time, here is a video of some cards I have made using the PL cards...super duper easy!

Here is a quick little tag to try and hinder those people who like try and sneak a peek at the pressies!
