New Home card/gift & ONLINE ORDERING!

Hi there. I am a little late posting today as we walked to school this morning (1 mile each way) and I am just recovering from the walk back home with 4 carrier bags! I decided to get some fruit and other bits from the local market on the way back home!! Thats my exercise now for the day!

Last night one of my lovely team members, Kylie, popped round for a cuppa and brought me this gorgeous card and gift! I had been longing for some of these tiled coasters ever since Kylie did a showcase for our team newsletter. I dropped a rather large hint!!!!



The photos do not do them justice, they are so gorgeous and will be treasured - thank you Kylie.



They of course use the Swallowtail stamp which Kylie stamped with Stazon and then coloured in really delicately and then baked in the oven!

SO we have some exciting news today. From today you can order from my ONLINE STORE 24/7 and have your Stampin Up goodies delivered right to your door!!!! How cool is that! We are still working on ironing out some of the kinks and I am trying to tweak my store front (whilst prepping for classes) but it is an amazing new addition!

You can find my store HERE

Using up the scraps!

Hi there! We have been in our new home a week now and we are all settled in and getting used to the changes! The craft room is working well and I made a card in it yesterday using some scraps and spare bits from my Dress Up Class!

This was my favourite card from my Dress Up class and I had the bits left over so I made another version!



And here it is! I am still experimenting with where to take my photos so they arent as good at the moment! I used some different stamps for this one - Flowering Flourishes - had to mount them up as I was naughty and hadn't used them yet!


Papers are from my faves - Tea for Two!


Love love love the Crumb Cake Seam Binding ribbon


Inside I combined 2 sentiments  - Curly Cute and Amazing Family



Do you remember these cards? Well I have had a request to run this class again from home and I have 2 places to fill. The class date is Saturday 1st June at 2pm.The cost is £26 and includes the clear mount stamp set (pay £4 more to get wood) or you can take the class without the stamp set for £15.00. Come along and learn some cool new techniques. If  you would like to book on and come and join me in my new room please email me.

New Craft Room Pics and Tour


Hello there and good morning to you!! We have done 6 sleeps in our new home and I have to say I am loving it! Thank you to those who have sent me a card and a gift, and to the lovely peeps who have helped me out! My dear friend Jane helped me start to sort the craft room out on Tuesday night which was a HUGE help to me - thanks Jane!

So I am here with a few photos of my craft room and a little video too!

Here is my new blind that was only put up yesterday. We have had blinds put up throughout the house with the exception of Ross's room (he wanted to bring the same curtains from the old house!)


Now to my regular ladies please do not faint but I actually baked buns on Friday for the little class I held on Saturday. My new resolution now we are in the new house, with a bigger kitchen, is to bake for all of my classes rather than nipping to Sainsburys all the time!


A few pics of my craft room


This is the area for tea and coffee and when I not running a class I do my cutting here but for a class I get out some samples.


I had 4 lovely ladies for a class yesterday. When we are not using the extra table I will just push it up to the wall to have more room!


And here is a little video, sorry it goes on its side sometimes and there are a couple of sound issues but I am sure you will get the gist!




I have some spaces left for my Stamp a Stack on Friday evening - please book with me by Tuesday 21st May. £15 to make 12 cards OR take your cards home FREE with an order of £45 on the night!


I also have 2 places left for my Technique Club, details below!
