Online Code Club gifts for April

Hello there! A little break from the Cherry projects today but I will be back with more tomorrow!

So as you may have seen I started an Online Code Club a few months ago and it’s been a great success and I am so pleased you are enjoying it. If you don’t know what it is then click on the Online Code Club link at the top of my blog to find out more!

I usually send the gifts for the previous month at the beginning of the following month but I decided to delay them a little this month and surprise some of my ladies by sending out a catalogue with the goodies at the same time! 

 I always make my ladies a Thank You card and this month I used Mint Macaron, Tip Top Taupe and Watermelon Wonder, 3 of the new In Colours with some Gold Embossing on the top. I don’t know what it is but I am really into Gold Embossing at the moment. The sentiment is from a gorgeous new Hostess only set.

 I made my ladies an In Colour Bookmark to go with their catalogues and an information sheet about some of the highlights and changes.

 And for their free gifts they got Bakers Twine, Rhinestones and Ribbon, something we all need on our projects.

 And here it is all packaged up to go out! 

I have to say I have never had so many lovely emails after sending out these surprise packages! I called them my Stampin Up Care Packages!

If you would like a catalogue and you don’t already have a demonstrator then please contact me.

Gift Bag

Good Morning! It’s a lovely sunny morning here in Yorkshire! I had a lovely Stamp a Stack last night with 9 lovely ladies and I am looking forward to my Technique Class this afternoon.

Today I am sharing another project with the Cherry on Top papers and the colour combo of Cucumber Crush and Watermelon Wonder. This Gift Bag was made with the Gift Bag Punch Board which is a new addition to our new catalogue. 

I have used the same stamps from Friendly Wishes and embossed them in white.

The flower from the Itty Bitty punch pack gets loads of use and I punched it out again in Cucumber Crush and snipped 2 off to make the leaves.

I will be closing the order for my Online Code Club after my class today so it’s your last chance to do an Online Order with me of over £20 and get a little treat in the post.

Mini Treat Bag meets Cherry on Top!

Hey there! I am a little bit late with the blog again today as I have the decorators still here and we have been busy shifting furniture etc... I am hoping they will be finished today though! 

Today I am sharing a project I gave a Sneak Peak of on my Facebook page this morning. I do love the Mini Treat Bag die and the good news is that it is carrying over into the new catalogue. I have teamed it with Cherry on Top paper stack that I am really loving. The bad news is the paper stacks have gone up £1 HOWEVER they are now bigger and are 6x6 in size, hence the reason for the price increase! You need 2 sheets for each Treat bag which means you could get 24 bags from one stack,

The colours in this particular paper are Watermelon Wonder and Cucumber Crush. I have also used the gorgeous Cucumber Crush Spotted Lace Trim. The stamp I have used is also new from a set called Friendly Wishes. I stamped in Versamark and embossed in white. 

Hope you like this one! I’d better get back to supervise!

Now, if you still want some items from the current catalogue or want to get your hands on the Weekly Deals I still have my Online Code Club that is ongoing. I will be closing this order on Saturday morning, so that will be your last chance.

6 days to go....

.... or 6 sleeps to go (which do you prefer?) until the Brand New Catalogue goes live on Tuesday 2nd June. Be prepared for Tuesday to be a very busy day for ordering, I’ve got my list ready - have you??

So for the next 6 days I will tease you  share some new products from the catalogue that I have used on projects for my Launch Event (Friday 5th June, still places left). We are allowed to pre-order selected items from the new catalogue to get us ready for our events.

This card uses a LOT of new product including a new stamp set called Build a Birthday, some fab Washi tape from the Cherry on Top suite and some of the new In Colours too!

The bottom two layers of the cake are Washi Tape and the top two are stamped on.

Hope you like this little project, can’t wait to share more with you.

Now, if you still want some items from the current catalogue or want to get your hands on the Weekly Deals I still have my Online Code Club that is ongoing. I will be closing this order on Saturday morning, so that will be your last chance.

Recent Classes

Good Morning. During May I held 3 classes in my small but cosy craft den at home! I have my Saturdays to myself now as all my boys are at cricket so I decided to add in a couple of extra classes just for 4 people from home. They seem to have been well received and I enjoyed them, except having to do a major tidy/move round of my craft room beforehand. For the last 2 classes I did a little Afternoon Tea for my ladies which you can see in some of the following photos.

 Coffee and Walnut muffins and Lemon Drizzle cake - yummy!

Here are the makes from my ladies who did this class on the 9th May.

 This is as tidy as my room is going to get at the moment!

 I even tidied my display unit which has been used as a bit of a dumping ground lately! See the cards on the bottom shelf? We are making those next Saturday at Sheltering Tree class, still 3 places left for this one!

 I even had a gorgeous 4 month old class attendee yesterday, the wee man Hugh, what a little poppet! I had lots of cuddles with him!

If you would like to bring yourself and 3 friends to my craft den for a class then please do get in touch, or I can come to you for a minimum of 6 people!

Right we are off to B&Q, yes on a Bank Holiday, are we crazy?

16th Birthday Card using Project Life

Hi there and happy weekend to you! Yesterday some of my regular online shoppers received their catalogue packs from me! I will share the photos of the packs that I made up for them but needless to say I got a fair few very excited emails throughout the day yesterday! Only 10 days to wait ladies! 

A couple of weeks ago it was Ross’s friend Harry’s 16th birthday. Harry’s Mum and I met at ante natal class and they have grown up together, attending both primary and secondary school together. I made Harry a card with a photo on for his 13th birthday and it went down well then so I knew to use another photo on his card. This is one of my all time faves of the two of them, I have about 6-8 photos of them playing in Evan’s truck. Ross is the boy in the driver’s seat. This was at our old house in the day’s when the boys used to bring a friend home for tea!

I made a card blank from Kraft cardstock and stamped all over it with the Be the Star stamp set. I then used various items from the Project Life Playground accessory pack that is still half price at the moment.

 The sentiments are from the BYOP stamp set which is a fab set for sending gift cards and money. We gave Harry some money to put towards something he was saving for.

A quick card that was very much appreciated. 

Right that’s me done for today’s blog. I have to tidy my craft room as I have 3 ladies coming for a class this afternoon making my Floral Frame project.

Talking of classes I have 4 places left on my Sheltering Tree class next Saturday at 2pm. Its £28 for the class which includes your own stamp set and here is a large sneak peek of one of the makes! If you would like to attend then booking closes tomorrow evening (Sunday).

New Hostess Set

Good Morning! I seem to be addicted to this new Hostess set at the moment. It’s a gorgeous set and will be available to claim on any orders over £150 from 2nd June and costs just £8 in Stampin Rewards (Hostess Benefits). It may be one I may look to sending to my Online Code Club customers in the future too, who knows!!!! 

I have of course used some of the new colours again! Watermelon Wonder, Mint Macaron and Tip Top Taupe.

The design of the card was totally CASED from the new catalogue. There are some great samples in there this year, it’s such a great source of inspiration as well as being a showcase of our products. Talking of catalogues, my first batch went in the post yesterday! I wonder if they will start arriving today? Do let me know if yours does!

 I think I am a little bit addicted to gold embossing at the moment! I sent some thank you cards out yesterday and they had gold embossing on them too!
