Halloween! Stampin up style

Good morning all!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

 Well I have a few little bits to share with you this morning. So I've never been much of a 'Halloween gal' but now my little girl is old enough to take trick or treating I really get into it. This year I decided to jazz up the sweets in which the children will receive.

What do you think? Comments are much appreciated.

Products used:
Stampin up test tubes,whisper white,delightful Dijon cardstock,seasonal chums And labels to love stamp sets, bakers twine, peekaboo peach, crumb cake and pear pizzazz ink.
I purchased a pumpkin charm off eBay and the black cellophane bags also came from eBay.

Enjoy trick or treating tonight, stay safe.

There's a merry Christmas in the making!

Good afternoon all,


 I will soon be in the process of moving my crafting space into the other room so will upload some pictures once this has been done in the next few weeks.
what have you all been crafting recently?? well I've been doing a bit of everything, birthday cards, Halloween gifts and tags and now a little of Christmas.


Today I am blogging this!
I totally forgot I even this stamp set until I came across it underneath all the other rubbish on my desk (whoops) I do love a spot of coloring with my aqua painter I find it really therapeutic. I was inspired my Ann Schach with the use of her shading and color combo.
well I'm off to read more of my sarah millican autobiography and hopefully have a doze in my armchair before the school run :)
Have a wonderful afternoon.

Wedding day celebrations with the bestie

Good morning all, so its the morning after the night before!! My little miss is now a Mrs. I honestly don't know how that happened, it all came around too quickly. I wanted to make her and her hubby a beautiful elegant, sophisticated card using stampin ups very own 'falling for you stamp set'. I hadn't used it yet and I will admit I did purchase the set specifically for her wedding. I'm sure ill get more use out of it in the future.

 I made two cards as I forgot I had purchased the falling for you embellishments to match the stamp set and embossing folder.  Its easily done as a crafter!

After yesterdays long day I'm going to relax my dancing feet and enjoy doing nothing.  :D

Happy Sunday everyone!!

Good afternoon all from a beautiful New Forest!!

I thought the forecast said it was meant to rain? I was looking forward to staying in my pjs all day and slobbing around... now I feel like I have to go out and enjoy it haha.

Well before I do that I thought id sent a cheeky post showing off the hexagon embossing folder!! I love it, do you?

A little wild shaker card

Good afternoon all!!!

Today I have a special little card I made whilst having one of mine and sarah jane rae's crafty days.I had a few cards I needed to make and this was one of them. This is a baby shower card for a friend at work. I'm really happy with the end result, I hope you think so too.... The mother to be adored it.

The only products that aren't stampin up is the stitched edge framelits and the sequins. However stampin up do have their own 'layering square/layering oval framelits' and their own assorted sequins but I couldn't take all my stash in a tote bag haha. We both love this stamp set!! we love it even more as it comes with dies too so no fussy cutting.... BONUS!!! 

I hope you've had a lovely Saturday, the weather has been gorgeous here in the New Forest.

See you all soon.
