Jeannie's BIG Birthday Card!

Here is another "folding" card - inspired by Sonia Sellers.

Jeannie has a really BIG Birthday coming up and this is the

Hopefully this is what it will look like when it is stood up!

That's all for now

Annie's Birthday Card

Next week my friend Annie is 60!!!

Here is the card I made for her - I bet the postage won't be cheap!!!

I didn't set out do make a double gatefold card (for want of a name!) 

but it just happened.

Just love the large scallop circle punch especially when teamed

with the cup cake!

Here is the back of the card.

Hope she likes it!

Training Day Swaps

What a day for inspiration!

Got lots of ideas from the swaps I received from all the other

SU Demonstrators - and here they are.

WOW!!!

Everyone had worked so hard and there are one or two, no, all of

them that I think I will be CASING in the future!

Thank you girls!

That's all for now

Training Day Swaps

Good Evening!

Had a wonderful day today along with 33 other SU Demonstrators

at our quarterly training day in Leeds.

Thanks Mummy Julie - great as always.

One of the things we always do is make swaps for everyone and 

here is the one I made.  It's very similar to yesterdays posting using goodies

which you could earn FREE during Sale-A-Bration (24.01.12 to 31.03.12)

 Here is the arty farty angle.

That's all for now

good night, sleep tight

Sneak Peek!

Sorry not posted for a while but had the dreaded bug -

 sore throat, cough & sniffles - not nice!

I made this card with the Sale-A-Bration goodies I won at Convention!

(Sale-A-Bration starts on 24th January)

I've used Early Espresso Card then stamped the background

 onto Very Vanilla with the stamp set Fresh Vintage (a special set

for Sale-A-Bration) using Lucky Limeade and Calypso Coral ink.

 The rosette is made from the Everyday Enchantment DSP Papers

- also for Sale-A Bration.  Then finished off with Calypso Coral

Ruffled Ribbon.

I made this card for my sister-in-laws birthday last week.

Tomorrow is our quarterly training day in Leeds - can't wait!

So my next posting will be the swaps I've made

 for training day - 35 of them!!!

That's all for now
