It's banner play for the kids

Morning guys,

How are you all this morning?

I just couldn't wait to show you all how talented my gorgeous daughter is.  She has been asking me since the Banner Kit was launched if she could make one for her bedroom.

So tonight we had some quality family time and she made her banner.

We made the gorgeous rosettes the old fashioned way using a score board, scoring every 1/4 inch.  She then raided all my punches and cardstock to complete the project.  The simply scored board makes it super easy and is available on my online store.  You'll wonder how you ever managed without it.

Here it is..................
                                 What do you think?


My son has also done one in his favourite colours, but not added butterflies or birds etc to his.

Aimee has used the Owl Builder Punch, The Bird Builder Punch, two sizes of Scallop Circle punches and the Elegant Butterfly and Bitty Butterfly Punch.

I love how she has co-ordinated all her colours.  It's just sooooo cute.

So, are you inspired, can you see this in your little one's rooms, or is there a special message you want to send to someone ............

Yes.  Now you have the perfect way to construct your own banner.

This fantastic kit in the Autumn Winter Ideas Book, has everything you need to make great Banners.  All you need to do is add your inks.  Aimee used all my Classic Inks and some Daubers to stencil her banner and the effect is awesome.  You rock Aimee.

If you're inspired and would like to order these items, please visit my on-line shop at

or click on the Shop Now button in the left hand column.

I'd love to see your banner creations, after you've bought the kit.

Don't forget the extra special Hostess Code for this month.  Simply put it in the code box when ordering and you will be entered into the draw to see if you win the Hostess Credits.

The code is

CAZFRK7P

Go on give it a go and order - someone's got to win it and it could be you.

Oh Hello

Hi everyone,


My card today is saying Hello, to all my regular followers and my newbies.


Firstly can I thank everyone that has looked at my blog recently.  Your support is much appreciated.

The two stamp sets used to create this card seem to pop up time and time again in my work.  I just love the versatility of the Oh Hello set
This set is just gorgeous and can be used in so many ways.  It's a real star to have in your collection.

I used the gorgeous Strawberry Slush Classic Ink Pad and stamped the patterned pansy flower onto my card, I then stamped onto another piece using the flower, punched these out with the co-ordinating Pansy Punch. Finally I stamped the sentiment.
The last little bit is fussy cutting.  I trimmed around the flowers to create the gorgeous edge to this card. Then using Dimensionals adhered the three separate flowers to the front. Finishing off with some Rhinestones.

 
The stamp set and punch can be purchased together giving you a saving of 15%.  Look out for the bundle details in the ideas books.





I just love using these sets and can create so many variations.  Don't you just love the bottle of flowers.  So cut and super easy to do with the punch and stamp set.

Are you feeling inspired............  I hope I have made you feel a little bit creative today.  It's just what you need to chase away the grey rain clouds on this wet Friday.


Just a quick reminder about all the fantastic offers we have for you this month.  It's the start of Stampin Up's New Year so they are offering some truly jaw dropping things:

Here is my first Stampin Up Hostess Code:-  CAZFRK7P

So, what is a Stampin Up Hostess Code?
A Hostess code is a code you enter when you order online through my shop.
Normally if you host a workshop in your home, you have the opportunity to earn hostess credits on your workshop sales.  Anything over and above a combined total of £150 earns you £25 minimum hostess credit.  

For some of you it's either not convenient to host a workshop, or perhaps you don't have the space.  Well now you can.  By ordering through my online shop you get the opportunity of receiving the same great service, support and Hostess Credits just by entering the above code on the Hostess Code box during the check out process. One customer will be randomly chosen to receive all the hostess credits from all of the online orders that have used the Hostess code and that could be YOU!!!

So how do you do this:-
It’s easy, create an account, (if you don't already have one), choose your gorgeous new craft products, enter the hostess code in the box when prompted,
 and then you complete the order as normal. After the closing date (below) one person will be randomly drawn using a number generator.   The winning customer will be contact by myself and told how much they have to spend in Products for free!  This will also be delivered to you direct by UPS - it really is as easy as that - so what are you waiting for, grab you coffee, browse the fantastic online shop,  place your order using the hostess code and keep your fingers crossed.  You could be able to get more goodies than you thought.
