Embossing Class..

We had a lovely morning doing our embossing class and the ladies loved having a go at a new technique! The card was designed by cariad cards but the little boxes were there table gifts and I embossed the lid in night of navy! Must say there were very cute and they loved them!

Birthday Bash...

Had this cute set a while and only just got round to using it! 

Sheltering Trees....four seasons in a morning..

Typical English weather does this..believe me..... but I love these cards and this stamp set has to be a favourite! We are doing a class soon making these four lovely cards...looking forward to it..my favourite has to be the spring blossom one!

I love lace...

This is an upcoming workshop trying a new technique...embossing. It was one of the first techniques I learned many moons ago.  These cards are using blackberry bliss, night of navy and early espresso.  Cariad Cards gave me the idea....I think it looks very elegant. Think my ladies will enjoy this one!

Happy Easter....

I have been apart of our local church flower group for 5 years and although I'm no expert I do like a dabble!  I normally offer to arrange flowers in one of the windows or sometimes at the sanctuary but this Easter I offered to have a go at a pedestal arrangement that stands at the entrance to the church...a little bit of coaching from a friend of mine in the village and here it is!  It's not quite perfect but for a first attempt I'm pretty happy!  I find flower arranging quite challenging but it's good to work at something till you can get it right! Happy Easter...X

Lovin the bow builder punch!

We are in the middle of quite a long Easter break so It won't be till the end of April till we are back in full swing..however this is what we will be up too when things get back to 'normal'....I just love the bow builder punch and we are using it here for the card and the gift bag...so versatile and perfect bows every time! 

An Easter Crafting Play date...

Earlier this week Frazer invited some of his school pals round to number 43 for some easter crafting and of course an egg hunt oh and a piñata, they had so much fun here's are a few pics of what they got up to!

Frozen Party Bags...

Anna came round today and made some pretty Frozen Party Bags for her upcoming daughters birthday...thanks to Tara....Anna Cased your original make! My ladies are getting so talented..who would of thought just a year ago non of my ladies crafted! And that's what makes Stampin Up! So much fun! 

Lego Class....

Another couple of makes from our recent Lego morning...this stamp set is called boys will be boys and it's super cool! I love the fact this set contains a simple Happy Birthday sentiment! The ladies who attended the class received a table gift (as always) which was a Lego Gift Box and matching tag! They loved it and I really enjoyed the class!
