So Many Thanks!

Just returned from lunch with friends in Thirsk - delicious but the
weather on the A1 was dreadful!
Here is a quick card I made last night.
I've used my favourite green - Wild Wasabi, the new So Many Thanks
stamp and paper from the Subtles DSP Patterns Stack. A Basic
Rhinestone Jewel with WhisperWhite 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon
finishes it off!

Here is the arty farty angle!

It's getting very windy now - hope I manage to sleep tonight!

Thank You SU Mummy!

This morning was monthly training with my SU Mummy Julie and her Jems.
We heard lots of stories about Convention which made me more determined
than ever to be there next year - it's Disney Paris!!!!
I was very fortunate to receive the following special Convention goodies
from my SU mum ........

....... this fab shopping bag and .......
....... this pop-up table-top bin!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

If you like the idea of attending Convention in Paris next November
and adore Stampin' Up! products then why not
join my team - Chrissie's Crafters - and become a
Stampin' Up! demonstrator.

Contact me - chrischamb14@aol.com

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Season of Joy

Just sneaking a quick posting in inbetween getting ready for our Bonfire BBQ
and fireworks later this afternoon!
Here is another of the cards for Tuesday's class in Eldwick.
I just love this particular stamp from the Season of Joy stamp set!
I've used Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive (my favourite colours!) with Very Vanilla.
The paper is from the Jolly Holiday pack.

That's all for now - better get back to my plot toffee!!!

Robin Red Breast!

Happy Saturday!
I've just finished prepping for a card class I am doing on Tuesday
morning with the lovely ladies of Eldwick. Here is a peek preview of one
of the cards we will be making!!!
It is CASED from a swap I received at our training event
in Manchester in September. Thanks Victoria - everyone who has seen
your swap have loved it. Here is my offering!!!

I've used Crumb Cake card and a paper from the Jolly Holiday pack for
the background along with Real Red 1/4" grosgrain ribbon.
Chocolate Chip, Real Red and Old Olive card makes up the robin
punched with the XL Two-Step Bird. The window is made using
the XL 1 3/8" Square punch and a stamp from the Hostess Level 1
Silhouette Sentiments set in Crumb Cake ink and edge in Real Red ink..
The robin is finished off with one of the new Basic Pearl Jewels for it's eye!
Another card for Tuesday next time.
