Birthday Card

So I had to do a card for my Sister-in-law today and really wanted to use the Mixed Bunch set as I love the butterflies that you can make using the Blossum Punch especially when they have been heat embossed.  So as I was running low on Whisper White card stock so I had to use scraps and woo hoo I found the "frames" left over when using the framelits and I loved the results, so using the Hostess set Precious Butterflies for the words, the Finial Press embossing folder using the Big Shot this is what I created.  Then by adding the Rhinestones I thought it added that little bit of extra "bling".  She really liked it which was really cool.  Enjoy.

Child's Birthday Card

5 year old Birthday Parties are all the rage in our house - so tried a lollipop look today which went down well with the Birthday Girl.  Used the 1" circle punch with some Snail to get the effect then wrapped some DSP up to make the stick and tied with the Daffodil Taffeta 1/8 ribbon, then used the Alphabet die for the name and Number 5.  Enjoy

Well hello everyone, yes I know I haven't been on for a long time so no excuses.  Here we go:

Last week I spent a few days with fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators at our annual Convention in Canberra this year.  I had an absolute ball spending time with my Stampin "Sisters", a group of like minded people spending time together is so much fun.  So to show you how much fun here are some photos.


So we have J, Chris McLucas, Felicity Fernandez, Judy Male, Gail Kirby and I all having fun - especially J & Chris.


I had to add a photo of Shelli Gardner (Co-founder & Owner of Stampin' Up!) with me, she was very gracious sitting there for at least an hour letting people have their photo taken and she kept on smiling.  It is always nice to have a conversation with someone you admire for their commitment and also their down to earth manner, it was a privilege.

There were so many swaps as well that were just awesome so I have to share mine first.

These are the characters of Angry Birds that I cased from Niki Toll.  A lot of people's reactions were "My son will love this", some had never heard of the Angry Birds and were a little reluctant to swap but most were excited by the bookmarks so I was happy. (I know the photos are not the best but I forgot to take pictures before swapping - silly!)
So some of the swaps I saw were these, I have more to share and promise to do so.


So check out the promotions for June/July on the side and please contact me if you would like to place an order or host a workshop.

Bye for now,

Denise xx
