I love shaker cards but sometimes struggle with making them. This one turned out really well I think. The sequins around the card pic up on the sequins in the shaker card and give it a lovely cohesive effect. I embossed the Balmy Blue layer with the Woodlands embossing folder which matches the woodland feel of the stamped image.

When I was a child, I love Snow Globes. They weren’t as widely available as they are now and were so special. I love just loved watching all the glittery snow falling down on the scene. I still have a few that I have collected over the years that I put out for Christmas. This year I want to try and make one for myself. Watch this space!!

Christmas Crowd Christmas Card

I have a Christmas card to share with you today. Yes I know it’s early but as crafters, we need to get started early to have everything ready by December. This card uses the Christmas Crowd stamp set from the Autumn / Winter catalogue that launches today.

This image is all one stamp which makes this super quick to make. I have stamped this is in Memento Ink and then coloured everyone in with the Stampin’ Blends.

Stamps like Christmas Crowd are great for kids as you can stamp quickly a load of these and then set them to colour them in to make their own cards. A great way to keep them occupied and they are productive too!!

New Catalogue – New Goodies

Can you believe it’s only a few weeks to September when the new catalogue is launching. As a demonstrator, I was able to preorder from the new Autumn / Winter catalogue and my new box of goodies arrived last Wednesday. I am so excited to share them with you.

New Catalogue from Stampin' Up!

This new catalogue is amazing. It is a real struggle to decide what to order and I may have gone a bit mad but you can never have too much craft stuff, right?

The new catalogue covers Autumn, Halloween and of course Christmas. I am not a great fan of Halloween so I didn’t buy any of those items but there is a great variety of paper, stamps and dies if you do celebrate Halloween.

Christmas, I adore, even though I don’t celebrate the religious aspect of it. I was born exactly three weeks before Christmas. I tend to merge the two celebrations into a three week period of joy. This catalogue does have a good variety of religious and non-religious stamps.

The designer series paper (DSP) in this catalogue is out of this world. I was squealing as I opened and yes, stroked each sheet. Some of of the DSP has foiled elements and others have glitter that doesn’t come off on your fingers.

Enough of me talking about it, you want to see it. I have therefore done a haul video which I linked below.

If you want a copy of the new catalogue then send me a message via the contact me button and I will send one to you.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time Enjoy Being Creative!!

Cute Gift Box – Magnolia Lane

Cute gift box which is perfect for a lovely birthday treat for someone special.

I have another lovely project to share with you today. Here is simple and easy gift box that is perfect for that special gift for someone important.

Cute Gift Box – Magnolia Lane, made using supplies from Stampin’ Up!

This box is quick and easy to make thanks to the wonderful coordinating products that Stampin’ Up! provides. The box is made from Mossy Meadow cardstock and the lovely Magnolia Lane designer series paper. The magnolias have already flowered sadly but this paper can keep them alive and is great for the gardener in the family. I think this box would have been perfect for my Granny with a lovely little soap in it.

In Lincoln we had some lovely pink and white magnolias that were out a few months ago. I do like the spring flowers as they herald the start of warmth and beauty.

Measurements

  • Mossy Meadow Cardstock – 8 x 8 inches – Score at 2 inches on all sides
  • Mossy Meadow Cardstock – 7 1/16 x 7 1/16 inches – Score at 1 1/2 inches on all sides
  • Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper – 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 inches
  • Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper – 3 3/4 x 1 inch x 4

Eastern Palace Suite Available to Order

Hiya,

Happy May Day

I hope everyone has been having a wonderful bank holiday. I spent a large part of it taking my mother plant shopping. She has bought tons of tubs, compost and plants. We only moved into this house last year so this is the year to start getting the garden into shape. We have quite a big back garden and a little bit out front as well. I bought some tomatoes to plant, also going to get some potatoes and later on lettuce. I love planting food. It is so rewarding to eat veggies you grew yourself.

Last month I went to convention in Amsterdam. I have never been to Amsterdam so was great to be able to go sight seeing as well. I saw Anne Frank’s house which I have always wanted to see as well as the Van Gogh Museum. The bonus of going to convention is you get to see the paper version of the new annual Stampin’ Up! catalogue and do a special pre order. I have done a video showing all the goodies I got in my order as well as the Eastern Palace Suite.

The Eastern Palace Suite is a suite of products in the new catalogue that is being made available as two special bundles ahead of the new catalogue launch. You can purchase them from today until 31st May through my online shop. The best bit is that you also get a freebie with each bundle. Yeah!!!

Until next time.
