A little bit of fabric.....

Hi hope you've all been enjoying the sunshine!   we had a really fun bank holiday the kids really enjoyed them selves.... i on the other hand forgot to pre post to my blog sorry so this is a little late...

I've been trying out a few of my other crafts i decided to have a go at crochet...(need more practice) but it came out ok, I saew some gorgeous baby head bandsd and thought i'd give it a go with a Stampin' Up! twist so the top picture is of my crochet with one of the gorgeous Stampin' Up! flowers and one of the neutrals buttons..

For this one i played with my big shot and some scraps of fabric i had left over, I used the beautiful fun flowers bigz l die and added a button from my stash..

and last but not least i tried out the smaller flowers from the crochet flowers pack in the main catalogue but this time i knitted the head band... ( my knitting skills are far better than my crochet...) then added a few buttons from my stash.

Hope you like them..

thanks for stopping by!

I can see clearly now.....

ok hopefully you can see the detail in these...

these are a couple of wedding announcements which i made recently with the top note and manhatten flowers embossing folder on acetate..

they are gorgeous up close but super hard to photograph!

I combined the acetate with some of the springtime vintage dsp which i cut using the embosslit beautiful wings and the beautiful butterflies bigz die.

Springtime vintage

Well i said earlier that i made  some note books as gifts and hopefully by now all my angels should have received them... here's just 3 of them as I couldn't fit them all in the photo :)

each note book had the recipients initial on the front too.. hope they like them :)

Baby blossom t-shirt

so since we found out that the new arrival is (apparently)  a girl i may have got slightly carried away with flowers and pink stuff ,  lets hope they got the scan right!

So during Sale-a-bration as demonstrators we get the chance to earn free products based on our sales and the new demonstrators that join our teams and for one of the sets i earnt i chose the Baby blossom set form the new mini,  isn't it pretty!

So i've been playing with stamping on fabric again, it's been a while...

and this is what i created it's going to be a little big for the baby but i was just practicing before i set my self loose on the baby vests :)

So since we don't yet have the full range of Stampin' Up! craft ink pads here's how i did it

Thanks for stopping by!

Springtime top note

Happy Monday everyone!

thought i'd stop by and share my little top note book with you all, i'm loving all the different things you can cut through with the big shot!

I used some packs of a4 lined paper and used my top note die to cut the pages and used the card from the back of the pack for the front and back covers which i covered with the beautiful Springtime |Vintage designer series paper from the mini catalogue i also used the beautiful wings embosslit with some basic pearls.

(i've made a few more of these as gifts but this one is all mine! )

Just fluttering by !

 This is a little set which my ladies got to make this week with the big shot..

i think it's just so pretty and quick to do,

we used :

Big shot bigz dies Stampin' Up! top note and the pillow box die

Stampin' Up! beautiful wings Embosslits die,

The decorative label punch and the four frames stamp set all from the new mini

whisch we combined with not quite navy, so saffron, baja breeze and old olive card and ink and the sandy speckles roller.

Thanks for dropping by!

if you've checked out the new mini catalogue then this card may look slightly familiar,

it's featured on the last page of the mini catalogue featuring this gorgeous stamp set which is being sold by Stampin' Up! as part of their make a difference programme,  for my card i combined the stamp set with the manhatten flowers embossing folder and some of the gorgeous seam binding ribbon and crumb cake card stock...
