Wedding Fever hits ..............

Hi everyone and welcome to my new look blog.  

Have you noticed my new header.  It was designed using a new piece of digital software that

Stampin Up will be releasing shortly.  Its fantastic and I can't wait to be able to show you what it can do.  (Look out for more sneak peaks in future posts)

Anyway a family friend is getting married and they are having their reception in an orchard, complete with gypsy caravan, wild flowers the works.  So when asked to help with the decoration this is what I came up with.

They are gorgeous wooden hearts, painted with normal emulsion and then handed over to me.  They are going to be hung using ribbons.  I was able to use whatever colours and design I wanted, but they had to be able to be given as favours at the end of the day.

I decided to use all my Stampin Up Inks and then their clear embossing powders and Irridenscent glitter powders to make the designs stand out.  

They were all stamped and then heat embossed.  I think they are absolutely gorgeous.

The Fronts

The stamp sets were the wonderful Swallowtail

Morning Post

Hearts a Flutter

and last but not least

Beautiful Baroque.

All these are available in the current catalogue, so if I've set your heart a flutter with these gorgeous ideas give me a call and place your order.

Have a fantastic day.

Swallowtail Gift Bags

Hi Guys

Well, what do you think of my lovely new blog.  I am continually working on it and the rest of the pages will be up and running shortly.

I am really enjoying using the Stampin Up range of products.  The inks are amazing and always give such a clean crisp image.  The co-ordinating markers, ribbons, buttons and papers make putting a project together super easy.

I have been making these cute gift bags together with tags for my friends.  Everyone loves them and the gorgeous goodies inside.

New Blog Header.

Wow, what do you all think.  Along with the recent changes to the blog background and layout I have designed a new blog header.  What do you all think..........

I'm loving the colour - which is Strawberry Slush, a Stampin Up colour.  It goes beautifully with the gorgeous peonies on the sides of the blog.  I'm just loving the new fresh look of my blog.

Well my other announcement is that I have become a Stampin Up demonstrator.  I will be adding lots of new pages to my blog, so please keep checking back to see the new pages and fun additions.

I am a member of the Fantastic Pinkies Team and my wonderful Upline is Tracie Cornelius, www.getcreativewithTraci.co.uk   She has been fantastic support, and has helped me update my Blog.  Thanks Traci you are a star.  There will be links to Traci and all the other Pinkies in my sidebars in the next few days.  Look out regularly as we do great blog hops with wonderful inspirational ideas.

I became a demonstrator as the incentives to hobby demonstrators are as good as those for the people who want to make a career out of it.  I am loving being a hobby demonstrator, and get great value for money on the craft stuff for my hobby I would normally be buying anyway.  If you would like to know more about Stampin Up for hobby demonstrators let me know.

Hugs
