Just wanted to update you on some items off the Last Chance List that have gone forever

These are now no longer available. If you have your eye on any other products then please check the list above. Free postage for any orders over £50

Last week my lovely next door neighbour Diane celebrated her special birthday, she was on her hols at the time but I popped this card through her letterbox before she went!

It is using the Level 2 hostess set Fast and Fabulous

I went for a colour combo of Baja Breeze, Pear Pizazz, Regal Rose and Very Vanilla. I enjoyed doing a quick bit of watercolouring with the blender pens and the inked.

I added a band with the eyelet border punch and some Baja Breeze ribbon. The numbers were done on the Big Shot and layered onto a circle and scallop circle!

I also decorated inside the card and coloured it in! My friend Victoria would really approve!!!

UPDATE ON HOSTESS CLUB - I now just have the one place left, please message me for info!

Convention Swaps

ONe of the great things about convention is meeting all the other demonstrators, some you have met before and also new people. I love to meet the demonstrators from France and Germany too. We always swap cards at any event we go to. This year I made 140 swap cards which was just enough, I probably could have gotten away with making a few less.

My card fronts were made using Regal Rose and Pear Pizazz and the Level 2 Hostess set Fast and Fabulous.
They are a headache at times and there seems like no light at the end of the tunnel but its brilliant to swap them out and then get 140 great swaps back to use on your display boards!

The sentiment is from Curly Cute and punched out with theModern Label punch and layered onto the large Oval punch. I just love the Pear Pizazz ribbon! I went through 2 reels making these!!!!

If you like the sound of convention after all my posts about it then you know what to do!! Give me a call or drop me an email to julie.kettlewell@ntlworld.com to discuss the benefits of being a Stampin Up Demonstrator! Its honestly the best job I have ever had!!!!

Back tomorrow for my special little birthday boys post!!!
