I love denim! I’ve made a few denim handbags now, but I think this one is definitely my favourite!
I’ve cut up a pair of my husbands old jeans, used some of Amy Butler’s gorgeous fabric and a smidge of the Stampin’ Up! Baja Breeze satin ribbon.
I made a denim bag before my trip to America last year, and thought it was time for a new bag … maybe I’m starting a new tradition!!
I needed this stamp set!! I had a play last night and this is what I came up with … I love the stamp “live with passion”, and the Baja Breeze Satin Ribbon is gorgeous!!
I recently joined an In Colour Card Swap on my uplines forum and it’s due this Friday .. very simple, but I still quite like it!
I’ve used Pink Pirouette and Baja Breeze .. my two favourite In Colours!!
Stampin’ Up! Convention is next week and I’m starting to get VERY excited. This is the main reason I joined Stampin’ Up! .. and I’ve discovered the demonstrator discount is also a huge benefit .. (I haven’t told my husband how much of a benefit yet ..)
My Stampin’ Up! team had a get together this week .. and the topic .. Swaps. I’ve never participated in a swap before, but I really love the idea and I’m looking forward to it.
Here is my first card …
There’s something so exciting about new pencils …
So here are my results … Dreams du jour + Pink Pirouette = Mother’s Day Gift Set!!
I LOVE baja breeze … I just can’t keep away from it … and I needed to make a card for a friend … so at least I had a good excuse!!
Mother’s Day is coming up next month, so I’ve been practising … and I’m loving Fifth Avenue Floral!!
A big thanks to my Mum who held a workshop last night, as a new Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator I need all the practice I can get .. I seriously don’t think I’ve ever talked as much in my life.
But I do love it!! So nice to see a group of ladies make a card of my design and really love their final product. That’s so exciting .. and of course they are enjoying the creativity!!
As Mother’s Day is just around the corner we made a pink card .. I’ve used some new “goodies” from the catalogue – Eyelet Border Punch and the Fifth Avenue Floral (as a background stamp) and I LOVE them both!
And one for the boys … wild about you …
The Stampin’ Up! Launch night for the new Australian Catalogue was so much fun!!
These are the two cards that my table made …
This card uses the new Fresh Cuts Stamp Set and two of the new In Colours – Pink Pirouette and Riding Hood Red – Love these colours!!
And this card uses a favourite stamp set of mine – Lovely As A Tree – and I’m loving the Baja Breeze!!
I copied the layout of this card from the new Idea Book & Catalogue (page 123) to show how easy it is to use the ideas in the book to create your own card.
