November Swap - Baby/Wedding

Hello all! Well we have certainly had all types of weather this month have'nt we! We are now back to warmer weather after the gusty, rainy days last week. Great for the lawns. The Cicadas are getting noisier which means summer is on its way. Hope you are all organised for Christmas. I am getting there slowly. It always creeps up on you.

Well we have just had our November Swap and we could do either a baby or wedding card. I chose to do a baby card. This card is a good one if you want to use up some scrap card.
You will need:-
Stamp Sets - Sprinkles (heart), Curvy Verses
Ink - Brocade Blue
Cardstock - Brocade Blue, Whisper White, Bashful Blue
Accessories - Wide Oval Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, Whisper White Tafetta Ribbon, Stampin' Dimensionals, White Gel Pen, 2-Way Glue, Dazzling Diamonds, Stamp-a-ma-jig. On my swap cards I decided not to use the Baby stamp from Lovely Labels but brought down the little verse a little lower and left the bottom blank. It looked a lot simpler and smart.
Hope you like my card. Thanks for popping by.

Time is running out for Spring Mini

Here we are in November already and Christmas is just around the corner. Doesn't time fly! Well you all know what that means dont you! Our new Summer Mini is also just around the corner and that means our Spring Mini is due to finish at the end of this month. If you still have some items on your Wish List from the Spring Mini then its time to get your order in so that you don't miss out. I have found the Oval All set very popular and very versatile. I just love this set. If you are looking for that something special for the young at heart then Choo Choo and Forest Friends may be what you are looking for. These can be used for baby cards, birthdays, picture frames etc. Sense of Time is one of my very favourites in the Spring Mini. I just love the many ways this set can be used. You may want to stock up on your Ski Slope Designer Series Paper. I have made a lot of use of this set with my Christmas cards.
I have recieved my sneak peak of the new Summer Mini catalogue and I cant wait to show it to you. I have already got a few items on my Wish List.
It has been just over a week that we had SU! Regionals in Perth. It was a great day but as usual it went too quickly. I have popped a few of the projects they had in store for us and also some of the swaps I received on the day. When we arrived we were all given the Hello Again stamp set and Retro Remix Stampin Around Wheel to be used with our projects. These are in the new Summer Mini Catalogue. This gives you a sneak peak of what is to come.

I will have a new card posted soon but October has been so busy for me and the family. Apart from that I have had the flu for the past week which has slowed me down also. I will be back up and running real soon. Until then stay safe and thanks for popping by.
