Strictly Shoe!

Good Morning! No blog post from me yesterday as Evan and I travelled to watch our friends dancing in a competition in Stockport so it was a long day for us! 

Talking of dancing, have you watched Strictly this week??? It started on Friday evening, which was the same time as my regular monthly Stamp a Stack event. I got a few comments from the ladies about how professional I had been and still done the class even though Strictly was on!! Ha ha!! I managed to catch up when I got home. Thanks to my lovely ladies on Friday night who also gave up their "Strictly fix" to come along to my event!

As a bit of a nod to Strictly starting I created this card using the Fabulous You stamp set, or should it be  FAB-U-LOUS You!! 

I have made a bow using the large Oval punch. My downline Allie did a fab video tutorial on it, if you would like to watch it you can see it HERE. 

The ladies loved learning how to make this and I wanted to incorporate it onto my card so I added it to the shoe for a girly birthday card.

Hope you like my little make and you have a FAB-U-LOUS day!

Gift Bow Die video

Good Morning! I have something a little different for you today - a VIDEO!! I am a bit rubbish when it comes to videos but that is all about to change as I now have a Tech Guy - my son Ross! He has edited my little video and added some titles (I hadnt a clue how to do this!)

So today I am sharing how to make this Gift Bow Die using the new die from the Seasonal Catalogue, a very popular purchase! 

Please go easy on us! I hope you enjoy it and a big thank you to Ross! x

Downline Gift

Hi there! Phew it's Friday! I have my Stamp a Stack tonight and then Scrapbook and Technique club tomorrow and then breathe!!! No classes for me at all next week which I am looking forward to, I have so much to catch up on! PLUS - Strictly Come Dancing starts again tonight and I watch it ALL, It Takes Two every day and the lot! Can't wait!

So today I am sharing a downline gift I made to decorate a stamp set. Recently Stampin Up ran a challenge in the UK and I also ran one alongside it within my team. This prize was sent to Anita this week - I hope she has received it - and I am so delighted for her that she won. Anita is a relatively new demonstrator so I was thrilled for her.

I have used the Papillon Potpourri stamp set which is on offer until Monday with the matching Bitty Butterfly punch. 15% off when you buy both as a bundle.

I just simply decorated the stamp set with a belly band and used the Deco Labels to cover the join. I am loving the Pear Pizazz chevron ribbon at the moment so this had to be used.

And of course I had to make a little card to match!

Well done Anita, enjoy your stamp set!

I'll be back tomorrow with a little video for you so make sure you check back with me.

On Sunday Evan was invited to a girls birthday party from school! I don't think he has been invited to a girl's party since he was about 7 so it was a little strange to have to make a girly card!! I blew the cobwebs off my Create a Cupcake Stamps and punch and set about to make this! 

Victoria's name was stamped in the Notable alphabet and the 11 was stamped with Memorable Moments. The colour combo is Coastal Cabana, Pear Pizazz and Strawberry Slush.

I added a little Silver Glimmer card behind the number just for that extra bit of bling. I really enjoyed making this card, will be using this set at my Stamp a Stack night this Friday now!

See you tomorrow!
