Chritmas Card Class

Thank you to all those ladies that attended my Christmas card class last night. I hope you all enjoyed yourselves although it did get a bit manic near the end, and that you enjoy finishing off your cards at home.

Here is a photo of my cards for you use as a guide. Also dont forget to jazz them up with your Dazzling Detail Glitter. Further classes are detailed on my blog. X

It's VERY BIG - the new Stampin’ Up! UK catalogue has grown by an amazing 70 pages, it is now 204 pages in total!!!! If you click on the image above, you'll be taken to the online version. However, if you would like a copy of the brand new catalogue, then contact me to get one posted to you, or better still, if you book a party or join my monthly club, then you can get one for free.

Better still come along to my coffe morning on Saturday 13th October between 10 - 12 at the Martin Saunders Scout hall, East Ham Road for a look. There will be a make & take to do, raffle, a 10% discount on orders placed on the day and refreshments.

October's class

Well almost the end of September. Where has the month gone!

Been busy over the weekend designing cards for this months class. It will include all the materials to make four cards from the selection below, along with spare papers from the Festival of Prints christmas papers and a pot of Dazzling Details, which is the new glitter glue from Stampin Up. Great to add a bit of bling to your Christmas projects. Hope you like them.

October is a busy month for us Stampin Up ladies as it is new catalogue time!

I am currently planning a coffee morning on Saturday 13th October at the Scout Hall in East Ham Road, Littlehampton and hope you can pop in for a cuppa and a look at the fab new products. There will be a make & take, raffle and refreshments but I will post further details in the next week or so.

CHRISTMAS IS COMMING!!!

On Friday night I held a Stampin Up Christmas Party to highlight some of the fabulous goodies in the new Autumn/Winter Catalogue, which I urge you to take a look at as it is full of beautiful products.

Here are some pictures of the examples that I made using the new bits and pieces.

I think the most popular item was the Noel Notes Simply Sent set. This is a great self assembly kit, suitable for all crafters no matter what experience and also a great way to involve the kids with making the Christmas cards. I placed a photo of my kids in one and stamped images in the others, but you could also use the envelope liner as backing paper too.

Ho Ho Ho Christmas is Coming!!!

Sorry I have been quiet for a while. The Farquhars went to Ireland last week but now we are back!

I came home to find a big box of goodies from Stampin Up waiting for me. It was full of some of the new products from the new Autumn/Winter Mini catalogue, which you can order from on 1st September, and they are fab! I am so excited about them and hope you will be too.

With that in mind I will be holding a Stampin Up Christmas Party on Friday 14th September here at Sandfield Ave to get you in the mood. So if you have nothing better to do why not pop in for a look and a mince pie.

There is lots of new products covering Halloween and Christmas for crafters and non crafters alike. The catalogue also offers some great ideas of how to jazz up you Christmas gifts.

Here is a sneak peek of one of the products!

Also on the 1st September the retiring items list will be released and I will post that as soon as I can.

I am also looking for new members of my Virtual Hostess Club (Stampers 8. I currently have 4 ladies that are ready to go so only need another 4.

You commit to placing an order of a minimum of £20 per month for 8 months and one of the months you will be the Hostess and can earn FREE hostess pounds to spend in the catalogue.

You get a FREE catalogue and any seasonal catalogues too!

Lots of my customers love this way of building up their crafty stash bit by bit each month, and it also means you can obtain the special hostess products, without holding a party.

Please message me if you would like a place or would like more information, or if you be attending on Friday 14th.

Up Up and Away!

July and August are big months for birthdays in our family, and mostly the boys. So I decided to make a batch of blokey cards using the Up Up and Away stamp set and the Well Worn dsp. I coloured them with the markers and then used the "huffing" technique, along with a bit of masking.

I found it very relaxing and was very pleased with the results. Hope you like them too.

Is summer here?

What is that big yellow thing in the sky? Could it be the sun and if so lets hope its here to stay for a while!

Helen and I have decided to take a break from classes in August as people are away here and there, and it will also give us a chance to recharge our batteries and create some exciting new projects for the classes when they resume in September.

Here is a picture of the Flower Treat Holder and matching card we will be making in September. Class details are on the class page and remember, booking essential so that we have enough materials for all that want to take part.

If however you are having crafty withdrawal symptoms, there are still places left at the "craft & create" sessions on Wedneday at the Wick Week where you will be able to make a real flower posy and card for £5 - a bargin! Not many on the evening one but quite a few left on the afternoon one.

Although I may be a bit quite during the hols, behind the scenes I will be working hard. There is a new Winter mini catalogue out on 1st September and I hope to be playing with some of the fabulous Christmas papers and stamps that will be available, and the new main Catalogue will be released on 1st October, so lots to look forward to.
