i love you Day party

Good Afternoon

It has turned into a cold wet and windy day here in Wigan - 

which is sad as the sun was shining at 9am :(

we have done our homework - building a volcano

and practiced writing our full name

Im so proud of my babies and how fast they are growing up and how much they are learning on a daily basis

BUT

now I need to share with you my latest Stampin' Up event :)

last night I hosted my annual

I Love You Day party 

where my fabulously talented ladies made a card and bag set to send to a loved one for valentines - which we all see as a day to celebrate our love for everyone not just partners :)

I scouted Pintrest and another favorite blog of mine at the moment Pootles and found 2 gorgeous projects to teach the ladies that attended 

I made each ladies a little gift for coming using the GORGEOUS Scalloped Tag Topper Punch (133324 £20.95) from the Spring summer catalogue

these were taken from Pootles Blog

 I saw the original card on Pintrest and fell in love with its simplicity

We used the Language of Love stamp set ( spring summer catalogue)

This bag was seen on Pootles Blog (one place I am a frequent visitor at the moment)

and I made it using retired DSP

The ladies all seemed to really enjoy creating their own versions and Im looking forward to them sharing the pictures with me soon

if you would like to host a party or place an order please contact me

Sunshine house Workshop

Well what a fabulous day I had yesterday

I held what I call my 1st 'corporate' workshop

Im a member of a local Craft group called Crafty Wiganers and they sell and promote their products through a local community centre called Sunshine House.

All this week they are running workshops for the local commuinity and they asked me to put one together and host it for them.

I knew just the workshop to host as I had done it before and the finished product is gorgeous (In my opinion)

The workshop was full and held a mix of experienced crafters to someone doing it for the 1st time

From listening to the comments floating around the morning everyone seemed to enjoy the workshop and like the end product.

When asked by the centre if they would like to see more Stampin Up workshops there was a resounding Yes from everyone at the table

I would just like to thank all at Sunshine house for asking me to host the workshop and letting me share Stampin up with the commuinity.  I was told at least twice yesterday they were converted to Stampin Up - which is exactly what I wanted to hear.

Thank you to everyone that attended it was great to meet some new people and of course to see some familiar faces.

I am very much looking forward to seeing you all again and to hosting my next workshop - if you will have me xx

Mixed Bunch and Neutrals workshop 12.04.13

Hi everyone...

Well today started off as a gorgeous sunny spring day but is ending in typical April fashion...its raining!!!!!!

Now I know I have done a Mixed Bunch Workshop before but I love the stamp set and decided to take it up a notch and change the colour scheme and add a little bling!!

The workshop was attended by 4 of my lovely ladies

regular work shoppers Catherine (and Daniel), Anne and Cheryl and newbie workshop attendee Claire

The workshop was taken up a notch by the change in colour to the Neutral family

and the use of Rhinestones to give a little Bling

(not that you can see them very well in this pic)

Here is what the ladies made...

Claire...

Cheryl...

Anne...

Catherine...

All using the same set and colours based around my original set but all looking different and individual...Well done ladies they are gorgeous 

If you would like to hold a workshop and live in the Wigan area then please get in touch.

Mixed bunch Workshop

Good afternoon from a VERY cold and white Wigan.

Then I demonstrated the Scoreboard and we made the Desktop box to keep them in
