DREAMING OF PARIS

Yes I'm back with the second post of the day, I can't believe it myself. As you know bright is me, but I just love this stamp set and the gorgeous DSP to go with it. Not usually my colours but they just go so well so stay tuned for more to come with this gorgeous set.
I made this card just because I could, but I have just the perfect person to give it to now. I love it when that happens...just meant to be.
The spritzing of Champagne Mist is more sparkly in the first photo than IRL. I do get a little outa control with the Champagne Mist at times, a girl just loves sparklies.
Thanks for popping in for a look and I hope you my card.

I'M BACK WITH A STAMP A STACK

Forgive me fellow bloggers for I have sinned!!!LOL Wow, how long ago was my last post. Anyhoo back with 2 posts in one day and I just might take up a challenge or 2 this week. I must say, lucky there is only a few people who read my blog so there are not too many that would notice how long it's been.
Yesterday I had the girls over for the first Christmas Stamp a Stack. It challenged a couple at times, but being the troopers they are, they finished and were very proud of their efforts. Below are the cards we made, the girls like to do totally different ones so we don't follow a stamp theme. The Merry Christmas card is a case from the catalogue. I am just loving Dasher he is one of my many faves at the moment. You may be able to pick up on most of the cards that I have spritzed with Champagne Mist. I just mixed with some Isocol and het presto magic glitter for your cards and pages. I won't name all the products used but if you would like to know any ingredients please let me know.
I liked the way they turned out and I hope you do too!!!















Have a great day and I love reading your comments...it makes my day

IT'S TAKE OFF FOR THE NEW CATALOGUE

Well what a great afternoon we had today. Finally... the new catty got to see the light of day and the girls were impressed. I had 8 lovely girls over to share in the excitement, so waving at you girls. I still have 4 more girls to come next Friday.
We made a little bag with 4 cards, 3" x 3" (a CASE from regina Andari)to fit inside in everyones fave colour. It was a rainbow on the table with not one with the same colour. I forgot to take photos yet again of the girls and all their beautiful finished projects. DOH!!! Next week I will get some more photos and also of the prizes I gave away as well.
The note books show all the colours we had on the table. I have also taken a couple of photos of the place settings, it looked really pretty!!! Just excuse the sideways photos as my computer wasn't nice and would not turn them for me tonight.
I won't name all products used as there are too many, but anything you would like to know just drop me a line.
Hope you like what you see, they were fun and easy to make!!!



























Thanks for popping in and let me know what you think!!!
Have a great day

GORGEOUS ALLIE'S BIRTHDAY

Hi Girls, I'M BACK!!! I'm sure the few of you who read my blog, didn't even notice I was gone. On the 1st of July my beautiful daughter Allie turned 12, and she had a bit of a celebration. On the last day of school we had 12 of her friends over for some blue team V red team challenges. What a great time they had, noisy but fabbo. We had masterchef challenges, How well do you know Allie quiz?, singstar and a few others. After all the fun was over we shipped them out after dinner and her bestie Billi stayed over and I took them shopping and to the movies the next day. Thanks for staying Billi and making Allie's day special...you rock!!!
Below is the card I made Allie with her fave stamp set and her lollie bags. The invites and lollie bags Allie made were all pink and blue similar to the picture on her card. Everything all matched of course and the girls loved them. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALLIE, we love you lots and we know you enjoyed your birthday week!
