Fundraising for Joy

5 years ago a very dear friend lost her battle with breast cancer. Joy was one of the constants during some of the most difficult times of my life. Without her support I would not be here today. Since Joy’s passing a number of friends have lost their mothers to breast cancer and two of my colleagues and a colleague’s mother are currently fighting breast cancer. I try to do some fundraising for different charities each year and 2015 is no different. In memory of Joy and for all of those amazing people that are battling cancer, I’ve decided to raise some money for Breast Cancer Care.

I’m raising money by simply donating my commission from every sale of the Birthday Basics stamp set and co-ordinating framelets. Whether you choose to by one of the items or bundle them together. I will donate every penny of commission that I receive from the sale of these items to Breast Cancer Care. You can keep track of my progress through my Just Giving page and if you want to make a donation to help me on my way, it would be gratefully received.
This set comes in a choice of Wood mount, Clear and Photopolymer, so if you want to enjoy some crafting time and help raise some money for charity, then just click on the image at the bottom of the page for the set/bundle you prefer and you'll be taken directly to the item in my online store. Don't forget that we're sale-a-brating, so if you spend over £45 you can pick a sale-a-bration item absolutely free!

Here’s a card I’ve made with the set to give you some inspiration.
 

Thank you all for your support. Here’s to a happy, healthy 2015

Autumn Winter Blog hop

Happy Saturday everyone!

We're hopping around the autumn winter catalogue today, so if all is going well you should have arrived here from Cat's blog

I have a couple of projects to share with you today. First up is a Christmas card using partridge and pears and blendibobs. A full supply list for both projects can be found at the bottom of this post



Today is my hubby's birthday, so here is the little gift card envelope I made using the fab new die and heavy weight DSP, Under the Tree, which has been designed with the gift box board in mind.



Better get back to the birthday celebrations. Tea, cake and feeding the ducks seems to be the order of play for today.

Happy hopping! Time to see what the oober fantabulous Diane has been up to.

Trust God with Blendabilities

Wow, I'm beginning to think that we're starting to find some kind of routine...! You know that that's the cue for me to have to go back to the day job :-( Hey ho, I've still got a few weeks left on maternity leave to try and get my house into some sort of order.

Today's card is using the oober fabulous Blendibobs and Bloom with Hope. Bloom with hope is one of the hostess sets from this year's annual catalogue and it was the first stamp set I had to have from this year's range. To qualify for hostess pounds you need to put through an order of over £150 in one transaction. You can do this on your own, as part of a party or group of orders or by joining one of my crafty stash clubs. If you'd like to know more about my stash clubs, drop me an e-mail so I can keep you updated with details of the next club launch.


There's still time to join me at my Blendabilities class on the 20th September. Use the paypal link on the blog post below to secure your place as I'll be ordering supplies on the 11th September...

By clicking the pictures below of the products used in today's card, you'll be taken directly to the item in my shop to make it even easier to order :-)

Happy crafting!

Corner Garden with Blendabilities

I've been enjoying another episode of the bake off this evening whilst writing up today's post.

Like so many four year olds, my little boy started school today, such a huge milestone and he was all smiles when I dropped him off and he's looking forward to tomorrow. Fingers crossed he makes some friends quickly as he doesn't really know anyone and told me that no-one played with him at break time which completely broke my heart. Fingers crossed for day two and that he's even happier when he comes home.

Here he is in his uniform all ready to go.


I have another card for you today which is using Stampin' Up!s oober fantabulous alcohol markers called blendabilities.

I've always loved to colour and it's one of the things I've missed since becoming a demonstrator, but now I have markers to play with that co-ordinate with all of our papers, ribbons and embellishments and you would expect nothing else really!



I love the corner garden stamp. It looks like I've spent ages layering up the images to get the perfect layout, when it's just one stamp. I do love to cheat ;-)

Would you like to learn how to colour with blendabilities and get professional results. Well I'm running a class in Mansfield on the 20th September where I will teach you how to blend so that you can create cards like the one above.

If you'd like to join us, you will need to have the markers for the class, colour lifter and memento ink pad. If you purchase all of the items from me, you can attend the class absolutely free! If you already have the supplies then the class fee is £12.50. As always, I will supply you with all of the materials to make the cards as well as refreshments and calories!

You will need to order your supplies by the 6th September to be sure to receive them in time as I wouldn't like to guarentee their arrival in time after that date (although Stampin' Up! usually deliver within a week of you ordering.)

The supply list for the class is:
Rich Razzleberry blendabilities (131003) £10.95
Daffodil Delight blendabilities (130998) £10.95
Old Olive blendabilities (130999) £10.95
Memento ink pad (132708) £5.50
Colour Lifter pen (129369) £4.50 

You can order directly from my online store, using hostess code: CW437Z6M to qualify for the free class or alternatively you can use this paypal button by midnight on the 6th September and I will order the supplies for you. If you have the supplies and would like to attend, just select the option from the dropdown list to book your place. 



Blendabilities Class


Happy colouring and fingers crossed for day two!
