Sale-A-Bration Workshop

It's the last day tomorrow to get your hands on the wonderful Sale-a-Bration Stamps sets......

Hi Everyone

Sorry I have not posted for a while.......but, I was enjoying the bright lights of Las Vegas for a few days (we were celebrating a significant birthday...not mine though....)......It was so much fun........

On my return I did two back to back workshops for my very dear friend. They were really good fun..... thank you very much..... Then in the evening a few of us went to see Little Shop of Horrors performed by the Halifax Light Opera Juniors. I have to say they were absolutely fabulous, they are all so very very talented. My friends daughter was in it too, so it was extra special - well done Katie you were fab.

Here is a make and take we made, using the Bliss stamp set with Blushing Bride and Early Expresso and the Sprizting tool with the Stamp and Write markers:

Here is a selection of the cards the ladies made:

Well done ladies, thanks again to everyone and a very big thank you to the wonderful hostess.

See you soon.

Hi I have spent the morning do a little job which has been on my 'to do' list for quite while........It was to organise my boxes in to 'colour families', rather than just random colour boxes (which they were....lol)....... A job well done....i think...lol... and with a colour co-ordination theme........It was a fun morning........
