Special Birthday Card on a Monday morning

 

 Good morning and here we are, another Monday.  I caught up with ALL my housework yesterday and I mean all.  I did from North to East and South to West.  Normally people say I did the whole house from top to bottom well I dont have a top.  Living in a bungalow (one storey) house means I cant say that, well anyway, its all done.  So its a quick shower for me this morning and then off to create in the craft room. I do have to have a little visit out for a doorstop delivery but will wait for all the works traffic to go first.

Last week was my sister in laws special birthday and this is the card I made for her.

I have used a retired Stampin' Up! set but these stamps are on my shelf in the craft room and they are ready to be used.  I really enjoyed putting this one together.  It is a 7"x7" so larger than I would normally make but it was a special day.

Thank you for having a read this morning and I do hope you have a wonderful Monday.  Tracey x

Art Gallery Stampin' Up! Bundle together with Many Messages

Good morning, well it is morning when I write this but it may be another time of day when you read it. We have even more rain today so I will stay home and stay dry (as well as staying safe).

I have had a few requests to share in more detail, how I made a one sheet stamping wonder that I did on the catalogue launch day so yesterday I had a bit of a play, note the sentiments.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I made card bases from Misty Moonlight card and Rococo Rose card and just adore them.  I shall be sharing how these cards were made on Friday night and Saturday afternoon on Zoom.  If you are unsure how to use Zoom please do let me know as I have time on Friday afternoon to show you how to.

 

If you would like to come along to join us please, let me have your email address and I shall send over details.  You are most welcome to sit and watch how these are made and there should be lots of chatter too.

Of course these would not have been possible if I hadnt seen the very talented Ruth Magness on one of her on line demonstrations which was run through our UK Stampin' Up! Demonstrators site.  Being a part of the Stampin' Up! family is so much more than just sitting crafting.  A whole new world opens up.  If you would like to find out a little more about the Stampin' Up! family please do get in touch, my details are below. 

One of the new stamps and dies that I used were for the sentiments and here they are

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is called Many Messages bundle and it is one large stamp set and one large die from Stampin' Up!  It cuts out all the messages in one go so I dont think I am going to be stuck for sentiments in the future.  Happy to tell you more about this if you would like more details. 

Well I am rather keen on getting in the Craft Room this morning.  I hope you have a fantastic Thursday and thank you so much for having a read today.

Granddaughters Birthday card and gift wallet

Good morning from a very cold Derby.  Frosty out there again so I wont be venturing out just yet.  The forecast is for a cold day too brrrr.

Yesterday was my Stampin' Up! Mini Catalogue launch on the internet.  It was a lovely day but I will certainly be so pleased if I can hold my next one in person (that will be in May).  Lots of folk popped in and out throughout the day, I made three cards, showed off lots of lovely papers and we went on a  'walk through' of the catalogue a few times.  Thank you to everyone for your support.  

Yesterday was also one of the granddaughters birthday.  This is the card I made for her.

It has been created by using a rather old stamp set but it needs an inking now and again.  I loved colouring this in and making the card up.  As times are really strange, we thought we would give her some money to spend but these days, you cant actually use cash.  So I made a money wallet with a voucher inside.  We transferred the money straight into her account, of course, grandad took up a box of chocolates for her too.

 

 Today I intend to spend the day by not really doing too much.  After the last few hectic weeks I shall leave the craft room doors closed.  I am looking forward to having a walk out once it gets a bit warmer and that will be about it.

Thank you for having a read today and you have you have a smashing Sunday.  Tracey x

National Lockdown No. 3 - Day 2 -Art Gallary 4 cards One Sheet Stamping Wonder

 Good morning.  Brrr, it is cold today but as we cant go anywhere, I dont mind the weather.  We will go out for a walk but once it gets a little warmer.  I thought it got lighter earlier today, so does that mean that Spring is round the corner, I do hope so.

I have been corrected in my post of yesterday where I had the tittle of National Lockdown No. 2.  It seems that we are in National Lockdown No. 3  oppps.

I have made 4 cards following the amazing Ruth Magness, who makes quite a few cards all at once, using one sheet of card and then cutting it up.  I am going to do a tutorial on how to make these on Saturday, using the new Art Gallery Bundle at 3pm.

Did you spot that cute little ladybird on the last card.  It is adorable.  If you would like to join in with us, that would be great.  Just let me have your email address and I will get an invitation sent over to you.

Thanks for having a read today and I do hope you have a wonderful Wednesday.  Tracey x
