Christmas ornament

I decided to chop up some of my lovely new Christmas designer paper, this ornament didn't take long to make and just used a half sheet of paper so you would get 24 from a pack. I used BE OF GOOD CHEER papers and the stampin up sizzix snowflake die, also a wee bit of our new tulle

I have used scentational season, Betty's blossoms and the Halloween set googly ghouls which i received early on pre order. my wish list for the new catalogue is huge as we have so many new sets to pick from

this is the milk carton die, with Betty's blossoms, very summery

Betty's blossoms again and the paper which matches the set

a treat box using the cone die, i need some large twigs to hang a bunch of these on for Halloween

scentsational season and the snowflake from a new hostess set, along with the brand new tulle

Wedding reply card

Acceptance or with regret stamps are hard to come by so I have left this reply card simple. I love its simplicity and the twinkling diamonds. Stampin up gems are really much clearer and sparklier than other brands.

Spring mini catalogue Blog Hop

I hope everyone had a lovely festive season, we're starting the new year with a new catalogue- the spring mini, this blog hop is to showcase some of the new products.  you should have hopped over from Tracey at www.derbyshireducks.blogspot.com

 i have decorated a chipboard album with the new Spice Cake designer paper and the stamp set Charming (which is now one of my favorites)

 i have left a couple of these pages without photos to show off the stamps - i will add journalling later to these

 this page is quite 3d in real life- the satin ribbon is folded giving texture but its just not showing in this light

 one of my favorite techniques is the ruffles seam binding

 now its time to hop over to Hayleys blog at www.mycrafthaven.blogspot.com
