Melon with a pinch of Saffron

I had a new class yesterday for Gravesham Borough council. I would like to say a big thank you to the ladies that came along. This is one of the cards we made using the edible colours So Saffron and Melon Mambo. The papers are from the gorgeous and soon to be retired Bride paper pack. A cheery and bright card on a wet and windy day. I also got a parking ticket because the wind blew it face down when I shut the door! Not best pleased as will have to now write a letter and try and get the council to cancel it. Wish me luck!

Peek a Boo

Just a quick update to show the picture of the inside of the Peek a Boo Box. We made the box from a sheet of A4 cut to 21 cm square and the finished box measures 7.5 cm, just big enough for the tiny baby shoe made from Stampin Up Punches. I saw the shoe at a training event last year and the creator is a very talented lady called Mirella.

We added some tags from the tiny tags set which say baby and love, very cute. Finished off with some pink gingham ribbon. This looks just as good done in bashful blue for a boy.

I am very sad to see the Polka Dot Stamp back ground stamp retire, one of my favourites. The link to the last chance list is now working, sorry if you have been trying to find it!

Last Chance List

In readiness for the New Catalogue (very exciting!) coming our way on 1st October, the list of items that will not be making it into the new catalogue. is now available. There are some very well loved products on the list, so take a look and see if something you like is about to disappear. I offer free P&P on orders over £45.00 and some of the items are discounted as well.

There is link on the side bar to the full list.

Finally just a peek at the little box we will be making at tonight's class.

The stamps set is Forest Friends, and I have also used the Polka Dot background stamp, this is one stamp that is going to retire shortly.

Wedding Card and Correction

Firstly a quick correction is needed to the class dates I posted. The class in Romford is on Wednesday 8th September, not the 15th . My apologies if this has caused some confusion!

Here is the wedding card we will be making. I have used Baroque Motifs stamp set for the flourish and greeting. The beautiful 12x12 papers, The Bride were used on the middle panel, very classy!

The hearts make the main focal point, such a clever idea, sadly not my own. There are many examples of this out on the web and I am not sure who had the original idea. I used the tiny tags punch to make the bow tie.
