Sharing Ornament Keepsakes

Good morning campers! Today I am sharing another card from the Stamp a Stack event last Saturday. This card features the gorgeous Ornament Keepsake set! The "cover girl" of the Seasonal Catalogue!

This card features more papers from the amazing value Festival of Prints DSP stack (included in my Got to Have it all share - 1 place left - details HERE


The colour combo is Baja Breeze, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla and the sentiment is from the Curly Cute set.


Some cute bows in the Crumb Cake taffeta ribbon gave this card its finishing touch!


I was asked by a number of my ladies on Saturday about running a class to make the star attraction on the front cover of the Seasonal Catalogue! I am happy to say I will be running some classes from home over the next few weeks. The class will contain the stamp set as you will need your own set to make the class flow better, plus you have the option to upgrade to the framelits included too!



If you are interested in coming along the class will include enough product to make 2 of these wonderful projects plus you will have your stamp set and framelits to take home

Please mail me ASAP to register your interest and I will get back to you with prices and dates.

Thats all for today

A wonderful day of Stampin' Up! Christmas fun!

Well what a day yesterday was!! Phew my feet are still throbbing! I had the pleasure of welcoming 19 lovely ladies to my All Day Stamp a Stack event. The theme was Christmas and I set them the task of making 24 cards! There were 6 designs and they had to do 4 of each design and I am happy to say that LOTS of them did finish all the cards!

I welcomed a number of new ladies to this event, some who had found me through my blog so I am giving them an extra big wave and a thank you this morning!

Here are the goody bags that they ladies got on arrival! Some love brown paper bags which I decorated with the Snow Flurry die and their initials with some Gumball Green ribbon. The bags contained some ribbon, buttons and the fabulous Festival of Prints DSP stack! The ladies also used the bags to carry their cards.


I am lucky to have full access to my local church which has a big room with lots of natural light.



There were plenty of samples with items from the new Seasonal Catalogue.


Lovely Lisa and Elaine (with Ann looking a bit star struck in the background!!!)


Dawn and Anne


Lots more lovely ladies including Joyce my friend from dancing.




My friend Mel laid on a gorgeous buffet for us and the usual cupcake feast! This time we had snowflakes!!!!


These were Kylie's version of one of the cards. I CASED the design from the Seasonal Catalogue! Love your ideas Kylie!


Here is my friend Cathy from the theatre company! It is the first time she has done any papercrafting with me and she finished all 24 cards, I was so impressed with her!!! She had a fab day as you can see from her smiley face!


And then it was all over! Thanks to my ladies who helped me clear up and my friend Ellie who came over specially to help me!!!


Today I shall mostly be resting, as well as ironing, cleaning, cooking and planning in more wonderful dates in my diary for events!!
