Stampin' Up! Fine Flourish stamp
Well, time is flying by again with lots happening here! I promised that I would be back with the cards that we made at the Make It Show at Farnborough.
We had promised a clss with fancy folds, but we had to complete two in the hour so they couldn't be too complicated! Above is the picture of the first one that we did. You may remember the below card that I saw on Mary Fish's blog (US Demo) and used as one of the Sale-A-Bration samples over the last two months. Well I loved that card and so put a twist on it with the above card which was our first one for the class.
If you like it, you can download the basic instructions and details of what was used here:

Don't forget that the March Frenzy is on at the moment and you can get discounts on some great products.
Back soon,

Stampin' Up! classes at Make It Show Farnborough
Download Farnborough Scrapbook Class
Well, I promised that I would be back with details of the classes that we ran at the Make It Show.
Here is the scrapbook page that I taught. When running a class at an event like this, I always like to make the page as neutral and generic as possible and hopefully, this page fits the bill :) Now I've never uploaded a file to a blog post before, but with any luck, you should be able to download the file above which has all the details on of what was used together with very brief instructions - enjoy (if it works - you should be able to save it to your computer and then open it LOL!).
Cate Terry was the Demonstrator that showed me that you don't need to colour things in perfectly for them to look effective. I loved this technique and she told me that it was very therapeutic to do, and she was right!
I tried to convince myself that March was going to be quite quiet but I seem to be chasing my tail at the moment and with Team Training on March 19th and a Craft Extravaganza Day on April 9th, it's all go go go.
So, I'll be back again soon with the card class that we did at the Make It Show.
Have fun!

Stampin' Up! March Frenzy
There's a "March Frenzy" at Stampin' Up! and you can get yourself some great discounts on some fabulous products!
You should hopefully be able to click on the flyer below to make it even bigger or it may even be big enough for you to see as it is - I've tried to make it as big as possible!
There's a whole mixture of things from wheels, to patterned papers and from metal embellishments to stamp sets and shimmery cardstock!
These prices will only be available for March and then they will go back to normal pricing in April. Orders can be placed by phone (01293 888816), email (natalie@oshea26.freeserve.co.uk) or by hosting a workshop and payment can be made my cheque, bank transfer, Paypal Gift, Visa or Mastercard.
So, before I got back to the Farnborough Make It Classes, I thought that I would share the final card in the PlayDate box of cards so that is finished! I loved this class!
So, again it's the lovely bright Play Date Papers matched onto some So Saffron card, some rhinestones, some thin taffeta ribbon, the lovely "Sincere Salutations" stamp set for the greeting and the "Funky Four" set for the flower. The two colours for the flower have been added to the rubber with marker pens to achieve the two colours on one image. Some Linen thread and a couple of circle punches and you're done!
I thought I had a reasonably quiet March ahead of me but having done my "To Do" list yesterday and it being 16 items long, I'm not so sure now LOL!
Speak soon. Have fun!

Stampin' Up! goes to the Make It Show at Farnborough
So, I'm moving my blog yet again! Yes, I promise this will be the last time! Well, at least for a while!!
I'm going to double post for a couple of weeks before I swap over entirely, so we'll see how that goes and then move over properly. I'm still having some tweaks done, but all should be good soon!
Soooooooooo sorry that it's taken a while to update this blog! And to think that I had half term last week too, you'd think I had plenty of time on my hands LOL!
Well, we of course started Half Term at Manchester for the football and came back to reality on Monday. The weather was mixed so the boys had a couple of days at the park and a couple of days in. I really felt that this was the first of the school holidays where they didn't look to me for what they were doing and made their own plans over the XBox with their friends! Is this the start of them ignoring me and doing what they want? Probably :) .....
So last Friday - Sunday, together with some other ladies in the Stampin' Stars team, we attended the Make It Show at Farnborough, Surrey to spread the Stampin' Up! love :)
This is a craft show that has about 8,000 people attend over the three days and we were offering free Make and Take's and two classes for people to attend. It was really noticeable this year how many more people had heard of Stampin' Up! in the UK now and most were familiar with the company and the products.
Here is the Make and Take that we did:
A very "me" card in Marina Mist and Certainly Celery. The stamp sets used are Pocket Silhouettes, Perfect Punches and Punch Potpourri and the gorgeous satin ribbon. My obligatory Scallop Trim Border punch together with the Extra Large Oval and Butterfly punches too - Love it!
Right, I'll be back shortly with the two cards from the Class that we did.
Have fun!
