Spicy :-D

Today I was at Sarah-Jane's for an all-day class, which was lots of fun.  We were working with a dsp from the Spring Mini Catalogue, Spice Cake, which has a vintage feel to it, and stamps from the Sale-A-Bration stamp sets of Elementary Elegance and Fresh Vintage.  Sale-A-Bration items are available free for every £45 you spend between now and 31st March and we love free things :-D

Today's card uses stamps from the Fresh Vintage stamp set which gave me the opportunity to try out the Postage Stamp punch, which is really cute, I like it a lot.  The paper is from Spice Cake and I used Pear Pizzazz ink for the stamps and Pool Party for the circle design.  All the paper edges were inked with Crumb Cake to give it a more vintage look, which looks fab.

There will be more to come over the next few days from the class today, please feel free to contact me to make an order for any of these gorgeous items that I have showcased here today, I look forward to hearing from you :-)

Last, but by no means last...

Friday again!  I'm looking forward to tomorrow to Sarah-Jane's post-convention meet up where we will get an opportunity to see what new things came out of the convention in Paris last month.  First of all, I need to get stock ready for a Christmas sale at a school Christmas Fair in Verwood this evening, fingers crossed it is a good turn out and I do well.

In the meantime, while I'm having a sit down and a well-deserved cuppa, I thought I would show you the last card from Monday's Stamp-a-Stack.  I love the stamps used on this one.  The Pear Pizzazz backing cardstock was stamped with the corresponding ink using the Woodgrain stamp.  I love the effect that this stamp gives, it almost makes the card appear to be textured. 

The stamp used on the half Scallop Circle was from Polar Party again and was coloured in using a blender pen.

Right, off I go, back to Daydreaming and Sewing stuff now, speak to you all soon,
