Shoe Box Swap

Well yesterday I attended a 'Show Box Swap' this is where a number of people meet up and all bring a project with them. They make packs as if holding a class for the amount of people attending and put everything needed to make the project in a box. You then take it in turns to move around to each project and make it!

The wonderful Shaz held this Shoe Box Swap and I had a brilliant time. It was a lovely day and so we crafted out in the garden all day! We had a yummy lunch with lots of goodies!! yum yum!

Here is a piccie of all of us lovely ladies crafting apart from the gorgeous Steph who is taking the piccie :o(

Here is the project I made for the swap. It was very boring compared to the rest of the fantastic projects there were but at least it was simple and people could refresh their batteries doing it!!lol

I will be back throughout the week to show you what else I got to make!

For Father Class

Well a couple of weeks ago I held a 'For Father' class which was a week before Fathers Day. I had 6 lovely ladies attend and this is what they made! (Sorry about bad pic)

We really enjoyed this class and I have had wonderful feedback and comments from people who have received the cards from the ladies themselves!!!

My next class is a Tart & Tangy class on 11th July in Braintree. If you would like to come along just let me know!

Birthday Card

Hi guys,

This is a card I have made for one of my good friends as it is her birthday today!

I have used the Cheers to You stamp set which is such a versatile set I absolutely love it. My friend loves her cocktails so I hope she loves this card. All in all this card took me about 5 mins to make. I have stamped the background in the three main colours of Rose Red, Bashful Blue and Apricot Appeal!

This is my arty farty angle....

Everything used is Stampin Up, remember if you would like to order any of these items or anything else in the catty please contact me!!!

See you soon xxxx
