Live Your Dream


This was the stamp set we received at the SU! Field Training night. I have seen it stamped up a lot in Groovy Guava, which is easy to see why. I have also played around with Sahara Sand and Pomegranate. The flowers look great in Pomegranate too.
Like my little Handbag?
We did this one at a recent SU! Field Training Day.
I added a little fringe, by unravelling some Mellow Moss Grosgrain ribbon, and making crossover handles. It was fun to play with!


            What a year of cardmaking! I started making Christmas cards in October, for my demos each week, and managed to make over 50 cards this year. This set was on my wish list forever, and as it was not one that had been requested, I left it till last to purchase. I am glad I did, 'cause everyone has seen all my other cards, and I was left with nothing new to give to my special friends and family.
I have been exhausted for new ideas too, until I sat down with this set. I am really enjoying cards again!
These cards are done with watercolour pencils, and finished off with a little Dazzling Diamonds and Two way glue pen. It's so much easier than heat embossing.

Card of the Week


Hi, Christmas is only 24 days away, and I am now able to mail all the lovely cards I have been busy making and demonstrating. Being a SU! lady has it's advantages, as I have never made so many cards before. I have packed my Season of Joy and Spring mini sets away, and will start designing cards from the new Summer Mini now.
Ruth and I are having a "Catalogue Release" Workshop next weekend, so keep watching for more!
