“Create With Kathe” For Thursday 18th June 2015


This past week we made this cute Gift Bag, using the new Gift Bag Punch Board, with a matching 3”x3” card, and featuring my favourite stamp set “Kinda Eclectic”.




We also made a “thinking of you” card, which could be used for bereavement, illness, or friendship, and features the Hostess stamp set “Best Of Thoughts” I drew inspiration for this card via Pinterest, and the artist is Joanne Mulligan.






above is Jen's version

We do it all over again this Thursday, spaces are limited, bookings essential, 1pm>3pm and 7pm>9pm.

Happy craftin’

Sally and Kathe’s Stampin’ Up! Sneak Peak Launch


Well, I have finally downloaded the photos from our Catty Launch, back on Sunday 31St May!
We had an amazing afternoon of fun and laughter, and we, along with our guests really enjoyed the afternoon.


At each place setting, there was a new catty, along with a handmade paper-crafted gift from Sally, and a 3”x3” card {cased via Glenda Calkins from “The Stamp Camp”} in the new In Colours, along with a bookmark {cased via Erica B. Cerwin from “PinkBuckaroo Designs”}, showing ALL the new In Colours, made via moi.



As each guest arrived, they were given a lucky number (made with my Ornate Tag Topper Punch and Perforating Blade}, as we had a Prize Patrol table, lined up with 27 gifts!
That meant each guest also went home with a prize, and 7 lucky ladies received a second prize from the table. There were stamp sets, ink pads, Stampin’ Write Markers, a Stampin’ Scrub + many other goodies on the table.











Sally and I had a display table {whoopsee – forgot to take a photo!} of samples, Sally concentrated on samples made with the new Gift Bag Punch Board, and I concentrated on samples using the new In Colours.








We split the guests into two groups and we both taught our project, Sally taught her gorgeous Gift Bag, using the NEW Gift Bag Punch Board, and I taught a card, that had a bookmark attached {again using my Perforating Blade}.


We then took a wee break for some yummy afternoon tea.
Sally made an amazing two layered cake and decorated it as a wedding cake, a two of our guests {who just happened to be sisters} were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary!

We then cracked on and switched the groups up and re-taught our projects.

We all had a really lovely afternoon, and met some new friends, and can't wait to do it all over again!

Happy craftin’

Card Off With Jen, Wednesday 17th June 2015

It’s been ages since Jen and I had another “Card Off” Challenge.
Jen set the challenge this time, “Thank You + Gift Bag Punch Board”!
As usual, although we both had access to all the same crafty items, both of our projects turned out so differently!


Jen’s Thank You Gift Bag featured the stamp sets “Another Thank You”, ”Flowering Flourishes” and “Petite Petals”, + Rich Razzleberry and Wisteria Wonder cardstock, + Wisteria Wonder Seam Binding Ribbon, and White Stampin’ Embossing Powder.



My Thank You Gift Bag featured the stamp set “Kinda Eclectic”, my colours were Island Indigo, Lost Lagoon, and Whisper White cardstocks, and Gold Stampin’ Embossing Powder
I added some Gold Sequins¸ from the Gold Sequin Trim, Gold Metallic Thread and more gold on the flower, which was punched using the “Fun Flower” and "7/8” Scallop Circle" Punches, and secured with an Antique Brad.
The Gift Bag was secured with my favourite Ribbon, Tip Top Taupe Dotted Lace Trim.


I also made a cute little matching 3”x3” card ...


The result … it was a Draw!
