We popped to Southampton today as I felt I was long overdue an Ikea visit :) and we chose a great day to go because today was the day that the seven cruise ships from P&O would be moored in Southampton Docks for a celebration of 175 years of business, so we got to see four of them while sat eating lunch in Ikea's restaurant.  George diligently counted the lifeboats on the ones we could see to check that they had enough (does it show that we did a lot of research about the Titanic this year lol)  The one below is the Oceana:

and this one is the Oriana (apologies for the picture quality, it was a horrid dull day and taking pictures from a distance on a mobile phone through a window all conspired against us lol)

 I still had time to make a card to blog today too ;)  I am making the most of the Everyday Enchantment DSP and can't wait for my order of brads and ribbons to arrive later this week :)  

 I have left the card sentiment-less for now as I have ordered another sentiment stamp set and will add the sentiment when it arrives.

 I used a stamp from the Bright Blossoms stamp set for the vase and used two Framelit dies, both of which can be found in the fab summer mini catalogue.

 Right, I am being hassled by Grumpy Louis cat who is making it near impossible to type, so I'll be off now :) Speak to you all soon,

A quick late one before I head out to pick up the boy from Army Cadets :-)  I had to show you this little card I made this evening.

It is hard to see in the photo, but the purple dotty paper is embossed, giving the card a fab feel to it.  It can be found in the dsp, Sweet Shop, which is in the new Summer Mini catalogue, along with the stamp set I used, Bright Blossoms, and the much loved and now well-used Framelits die.

Right, that's it from me this evening :-)  Please feel free as always to message me if you would like to place an order.

Early post today to give you the link to the new Summer Mini Catalogue that came out today, it is well worth having a look, so many fab new products in there, including two fab new Big Shot dies, Framelits and Edgelits, both of which I am so excited about and have been using them for just about everything at the moment :-)

Here is a little something I made last night that showcases both dies:

I jazzed up a shopping list notepad ready for market on Saturday.  I love the new dies, the framelits are brilliant because they can be layered up easily.  Here is a close up:

I will be using these in my class this month, I will be posting pictures either later on today or tomorrow of the things we will be making.  Please contact me to book your place and if you would like to give me your order from the fab new mini :-D  I look forward to hearing from you.
