Christmas is only 4 weeks away.......

...so I thought I should make a start on some cards.

Here's the first style, I know it's an old stamp set, but I still love it!

I haven't got a fancy camera so you can't see it so well but there is black glitter on the red card and I have 3D'd some of the accents on the white one... all Stampin' Up! products including the glitter.

Hope you like... back soon with some more.

Bye for now, Justine x

Circle Circus

Hello again,

Here's the card I made for my hubby, I usually hate making male cards, but found this one sort of came together quite well, I also made a matching gift card holder which I forgot to photograph:

I used Stampin' Up! products:
Circle Circus stamp set
School Book Serif stamp set
Cherry Cobbler and basic black cardstock
Cherry Cobbler, Basic Grey, Basic Black inkpads
Love Notes papers


Hope you like, back soon with a christmas card...

Tree Trimmings

This was the little card that my first workshop made:

we used;

Tree Trimmings

Elegant Eggplant ribbon

Elegant Eggplant inkpad

Perfect Plum inkpad

and the very handy Stamp-a-ma-jig

and of course some dazzling diamonds to finish.

The girls were pleased by what they had made and how easy it was!

Back soon with hubby's birthday card.

Bye for now.

My first ever Demo!!

Sorry I have been AWOL ladies, I don't suppose many of you come here anymore, I don't blame you, but I will try to update this blog a little more often now though.

I held my first ever Stampin' Up! workshop a few weeks ago at my house. It was a little cramped, but I think everyone enjoyed it!
A BIG THANK YOU TO CARY AND GILL (my uplines) for all their help, couldn't have managed it without you girls!

Here is one of the sample cards I made.

Anniversary Card

Hello,

Been playing with Stampin' Up! stuff, brayed some bridal cardstock with Soft Suede ink, stamped the hearts from I Heart Hearts set with Melon Mambo ink and 'rock & rolled in Soft Suede around the edges, added some So Saffron cardstock and new ribbon, mounted onto Melon Mambo card and paper pricked and doodled to finish.

Hope you like?
