Fancy Flora Designer Series Papers Make and Take

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good morning, a warmer start to the day but its so damp.  We have flood alerts in Derby I have just discovered so I do hope we dont have too much rain.

 

 

 

 

 

Didnt the first week of the year go past quickly?  I have been so busy getting everything ready for tomorrows day in the Craft Room, enjoying every minute of it.  I believe lots of folk are coming in the morning (I do hope I have enough chairs) so if you are planning on a visit, I would suggest the afternoon.

I am baking today, I shall do my lemon cake, of course.  A tea loaf which has been soaking all night and a new cherry bakewell cake.  Fingers crossed it all works out. 

Here is another card that has been made using the Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper and this is the one we shall be making for the 'make and take' tomorrow.

Good morning and who doesnt love a good embellishment?  I really am quite drawn to them and it is my goal to use up as many as I can over the next few months, it would help if I stopped buying them but I am just so drawn to them, opps.  

We had a lovely day yesterday and the time just flew by.  The Christmas decorations are all down and put away ready for 50 weeks time.  A bit of a sort out was had and we must have packed them a lot better than last year as we had 3 empty containers, which is always good. All the lights were also packed away although there are still a lot of Christmas lights still up in the street.

Today is an exciting day for all of us Stampin' Up! demonstrators throughout the world as there is a brand new January - April Mini Catalogue that has been released with lots of new and wonderful crafting products.  I am sure you will see lots of these over the internet over the next few days and I do hope that you will be inspired by what you see.  If you click on the image below it should open the catalogue up for you.

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As well as the mini catalgoue, there is a a promotion called Sale-A-Bration taking place from today until 28th Febrary.  The Sale-A-Bration is where you can get FREE products when you make a purchase of £45 or £90.  If you click on the image below it will open up in a new window and it will give you a bit more information as well as details of all the crafting goodies you can get for FREE.  If you are still not sure what it all means, please do get in touch as I will very happily explain it all to you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This Sunday betweeen 10am - 5pm I am having a whole day in the craft room to share some of the lovely new products.  If you are local to Derby, why not pop in to grab a copy of the brochure and catalogue, stay for a cuppa and cake.  Watch a demonstration and even have a play with some of the products in a make and take.  If you need details of where I am please, do get in touch.

Birthday Organiser

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good morning and who has had a lie in today, oppps that will be me then.  I got a good nine hours sleep so I will be raring to go after my cuppa.  My 'To Do' list has been written out and its only a little list today which means that I get to have a day in the Craft Room.  A good job really as there is lots of cleaning up to do, putting away and then I can have another play with something new.  

As I have so many birthdays in January I was so pleased to be able to make up the Stampin' Up!  Birthday Card Organiser recently.  I managed to write up all the birthdays that I know about for the year and have started to pop cards into the organiser for the special days in January.  Hopefully I will get chance to do the February ones today.

When you purchase the organiser, as well as the actual book, you get all these cards, in kit form, to make up too.  A great start for the new year.  More details are at the end of this post.

Ending today is the wonderful discounted products in both the Clearance Rack and in the 'Last Chance' promotion as well as the July to December Mini Brochure.

If there is anything that you would like to purchase from any of these, please do order them as once they are gone, its unusual for them to return.  If you would like me to order them for you for collection from the Craft Room do get in touch, my details are below.

Birthday Card Organizer Kit

Fancy Flora

Good morning.  Try it out Tuesday for me today, once I have cleaned the craft room up a bit.  I had a bit of a play in there yesterday and used some of the new papers that are due out with the new Mini Catalogue called Fancy Flora, I left it in a bit of a mess, opps.   This is what I made.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have used Soft Succulent card as a card base with a mat of Orchid Oasis card.  I cut up one of the 6x6 papers from Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper and stamped one of my favourite sentiments from the Framed Florets stamp set.  A few in colour dots and a new dragonfly finishes it off.  What do you think?  I do hope you like it as much as I do.  This is just one of the pretty papers, there are loads more to play with later today.  Below are the current items that I have played with and the new bits will be available from Thursday.

Just a reminder that all the wonderful discounted products in both the Clearance Rack and in the 'Last Chance' promotion will end tomorrow along with the July to December Mini Brochure.

If there is anything that you would like to purchase from any of these, please do order them as soon as you can.  If you would like me to order them for you for collection from the Craft Room do get in touch, my details are below.

The first Monday of 2023 and some stunning Christmas cards

Good morning, what do we think to the new look of my blog?  I am hoping to spend a little more time with you via the blog and so thought it was best to give it a bit of a tidy up.

I started the New Year of 2023 cooking for the family, husband, brother in law, parents, niece and her two children, my poor sister has yet another very bad cold so she couldnt come along.  We ate tava (a Cypriot pork dish), chicken in herbs, beef bourguignon along with fresh rolls, rice and roasted potatoes.  It all went down a treat and I am so pleased.  I even managed to pop a couple of portions in the freezer for next week, getting ahead of myself.  We had some Christmas pudding, my favourite and I had made a lemon sponge too.  It all got eaten up.  I did however burn the saucepan that I made custard in, I do it every single year.

I managed to get ALL the pots washed, kitchen cleaned up and a chance to chill so it was the perfect way to spend a Sunday and the first day of 2023.  We have started to watch A Spy Among Friends drama on the tv and we are really enjoying it, not too much on the TV in the evenings and we do like to unwind at the end of the day with out feet up.

I have a short 'To Do' list today and will continue to have one every morning.  I cant tell you how much it helps me to get done all the things that I forget to do.  I can certainly recommend this little helpful task each day.

I promised to share all the wonderful hand made cards I had received and then totally forgot all about it.  I am so lucky to have some very talented friends

Thank you for taking the time to make a card and send it to me.  I had to post a lot of my cards this year so fingers crossed they arrived in time for Christmas.  I posted a couple out to the girls in Cyprus and only one has arrived so far despite being posted in November.  

Todays plan is to go into The Craft Room and get out a few things that Santa left under the tree and then tomorrow I can share my makes with you.  I have been promising myself to use these new items for a few days now but havent made it.  Fingers crossed today is a little different.

I thought that I would let you know that all the wonderful discounted products in both the Clearance Rack and in the 'Last Chance' promotion will end on 4th January.  Along with the July to December Mini Brochure.

If there is anything that you would like to purchase from any of these, please do order them as soon as you can.  If you would like me to order them for you for collection from the Craft Room do get in touch, my details are below.

Welcome 2023

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good morning and a very Happy New Year to you.  So 2023 has arrived and it will take me a few days to get used to writing the new year.  

I have to admit that this is the first time in many many years I wasnt up to welcome in the year.  I received a bottle of lemon gin for Christmas and those that know me know I dont really drink but I thought it would be rude not to have a little one with the wonderful steak that hubby cooked for our meal last night.  Well I sat on the sofa after dinner, put my feet up and went straight into the land of nod oppps.  At least I feel nice and refreshed for today.

 

We have the family coming for lunch today so cooking a Beef Bourginion, Cypriot Tava and some herby chicken all followed by Christmas pud and custard or some fresh baked lemon cake.  Now that is the way to begin the year.

Keeping my fingers crossed that I can get into the Craft Room at the end of the day for a little tidy up and a play.

Hoping you have a wonderful start to 2023.  Thanks for having a read.  Tracey x
