Pages 2 Scrap - Tuggerah


Not long now until my first class at Pages 2 Scrap. I have been busy creating bits and pieces for the new classes and for display. And while I have been doing that, I believe that Phil and Tracey (from the store) have been busy buying new stock up in Brisbane at some of their suppliers. (Picture me clapping my hands here - I LOVE NEW STUFF!!).

I thought I would share a sneak peek of the Christmas card class with you.
I love these chipboard accents by Scenic Route, they make cards soooo quick and easy. And that is what you want at this time of year.

In this class you will create 6 cards and have resources left for more. Come and create with me, it will be lots of fun. It is on Monday 12th October at 10am. Phone the store on 1300 664 228 to book, I would love you to come along.

The Stamp Spot Weekly Card

Thought I would share my card that I designed for The Stamp Spot this week.



Things have been super hectic around here this week. I have had an absent husband, been busy creating for my new teaching position and preparing for a housewarming party tomorrow night. Phew! I will be in need of a champagne (or two) by tomorrow. :)

Have a fantastic weekend and I promise to share more with you next week.

Close to My Heart - Sids and Kids


If you are local to the Central Coast and want to have a night out crafting, then we would love you to join us at our fundraising event. It is for Sids and Kids and here are the details:

You may not realise but stillbirth is still quite common, and in our group of 7 Stampin Up demonstrators 2 of the Mums have had a still born. I can't imagine what it must be like and my SU team want to help in raising money for research into this problem.

SIDS and Kids isn't just about stillbirth, SIDS and Kids is dedicated to saving the lives of babies and children during pregnancy, birth, infancy and childhood and to supporting bereaved families. A cause well worth supporting! Bookings are essential and places are limited so get in early and email me at scrapalley@gmail.com or phone on 0414 444 150.

I would love you to join us if you can.

Bye

Thanks a Million

Love this paper I received from Marcia at The Stamp Spot. I just love the cute little apples and thought it was perfect for a teachers card.
I wanted to show you the cards we made the other night with digital papers. It was in my Computers in Craft class and we used the Jesscia Sprague free kit called Thank Ya Kindly.
I like hybrid papercrafting (mixing digital with paper) and want to use heaps more of my digital kits in my card making. We printed out the patterned papers and the Sweet embellishment onto SU Very Vanilla cardstock. They looked great.

This card is for my Mum to send to my cousin for her 30th birthday. I love these Heather Bailey papers. And pom poms make anything look cute, don't you think?

And this one is just because. (I really must send out more cards :) Arn't those butterflies cute?
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed my latest creations
