Julie's Chocolate Factory!!!

Yesterday I had a lovely afternoon with 9 fab ladies who attended my Chocolate Class. 3 of the ladies were my lovely downlines, Sarah, Anne and Jeannette. it was great for them to meet each other. A Big Hello though to the other ladies, Jean, Geraldine, Jane, Angie, Linda and my craft bud Natalie! Thanks for coming girls!

Well you know me by now, I like to provide refreshments to match the theme of the class! So here are the Choc Chip Muffins I made on Friday night!!!!! I went a bit wrong with the ingredients and I thought they seemed a bit dry myself!! But HEY no one left theirs so they must have been edible!!!

We made a card (which I showed in a previous post) and also the Easter Treat Basket but the majority of the time was taken up making these coaster mini books. Some ladies brought photos, some simply wanted it to be an extra special card and the whole idea was to let everyone use there own creativity.

Its great to see everyones different interpretation of the books and I love them all. I have to say 2 of the ladies had never stamped at all before so they did really well!!!

As you will see I was a bit naughty and let them use my new oval punches before they are available!!!!! But I can tell you they loved them!!!

Thanks for coming girls, I had a lovely afternoon!

Playful Petals

Busy day for me today, got 9 ladies coming to my Choccy Class this afternoon!! I baked Choc Chip muffins last night so an extra treat for the ladies!!!

Here is another card with my new goodies from the mini catalogue! The stamp set is called Playful Petals and it works wonderfully with the new Tea Party papers.

I have also used my Oval All stamp set and layered the oval with the scalloped oval and coloured with marker pens, the large flower has been stamped and watercoloured with inkpads and markers.
And a nice bit of the new So Saffron ribbon to finish it off!!!

Right I am off to get my stuff ready for this afternoon!

Choo Choo and a Thank You!

Here is a card I made on Wednesday night with my new goodies. I wasnt really keen on it as its very basic with no layering but sometimes less is more I suppose!!! My little cousin Archie loves trains, its not his birthday for a while but figured I should make this for him!!! The colours are Brilliant Blue, Real Red and Old Olive. The train is stamped with the new stamp set Choo Choo and the track is a brand new wheel!
Name stamped with Schoolbook Serif Alphabet and number from Schoolbook Serif number, layered onto Scallop Circle

My friend Anna bought me these lovely goodies the other day!! I think everyone is joining my my cupcake obsession and looking out for Cupcake goodies for me!!!!! Thanks Anna! If anyone else wants to send me cupcake stuff then feel free please!!!!
