I am sooo tired! But it was worth it!!

I didn't get to bed until about 2.30 this morning so am so bloody tired now!

Why did I get to bed so late? Because I met up with these three lovely ladies, that's why! We are all Craft-ED consultants and have met up at our various training days. We've established a lovely friendship too. All very similar in nature and sense of humour - not always ladylike either! ;-) From the left is Jules, Hannah and Steph.



I have a MAHOOSIVE thank you to say to the lovely Jules and her kids; Jamie who stayed at his friend's house so that the busty blonde (Hannah) could sleep in your bed. Frankie who stayed at her nan's with her little sister Izzy so that I could sleep in her bed and Jules who gave her bed up to Steph and slept on the sofa bed in the study. Thanks Jules for putting up with us all. You have the most inspriational house that I have ever been into. There are examples of your wonderful work everwhere. I bow to your superior mojo!




Jules


Hannah


Steph

We had a lovely day, Jules, Steph and myself at a crop in Penkridge. Then it was back to Jules' house to wait for Hannah to arrive before nipping to the pub down the road for dinner (YUM!). We were all desperate to get back to Jules' house, change into our PJ's and then crop/talk/laugh/take the p*ss out of each other until the wee small hours.

I can't believe I actually managed to make 4 pages last night!!!

I was going to share a photo of me being very silly, but bugger that! I've seen it and it's awful!

I'll post piccies of my LO's when I've photographed them.

Craft-ED Products

I came across these two photos last night when I was looking for something else. They were begging to be scrapped. They were taken aboard our friends' cruiser "New Life" when she was moored at Fotheringhay (famous for where Mary Queen of Scots was beheaded and buried).

All paper/card products are from DCWV - available from Craft-ED. Contact me for details. The wave, flower paper clip and tab are cut using a Sizzix dies.

Hand Craft-ED friends

Remember a couple of weeks back when I went down to Oxfordshire on a Craft-ED training day? Well these lovely ladies are some of the girls I met up with.





It was a great day - very inspiring and we all came away with so many positive vibes!



Looks like Heather can't remember her phone number! LOL

Ellie Wiseman Trust / Bubbly Funk Auction

As part of my contribution towards the Bubbly Funk auction to raise money for Ellie I made this for Janice who won the bidding. Thanks Janice, you are a honey! mwah! xxx

Enclosed are pages for her to put her CDs into to keep them safe and scratch free.




The papers used are all DCWV from Craft-ED (contact me for information on how to get your hands on these lovelies!). The blooms are from Dunelm, Bubbly Funk and Prima. Ribbons were from Ribbon Mad. The gem and the pearl circle in the flower are from wherever! Ink is Cat's Eye Chalk Ink

Craft-ED product

This gorgeous Quick Quotes canvas kit is available to buy from me. It measures 6"x6" and includes everything you need (except photographs, an ink pad and glues) to make a magnet backed canvas for you to display your loveliest photo - in my case my beautiful daughter dressed in her finery as a bridesmaid last year. I think it's a fabulous price too at only £7.00. This is ideal for a beginner right through to an experienced crafter.

Contact me to find out how you could get your hands on one to produce your own work of art to be treasured. Great for a gift for grandparents etc. Sorry mum and dad. Love you dearly as I do, I'm keeping this one though! LOL xx

Scrapbooking @ Craft-ED

I had a lovely day in Oxfordshire yesterday at a Training Day with Craft-ED. I met some really lovely ladies, who, like me, just love to cut and stick!

I made a LO using a couple of photos of my DS and made the other page at home last night. The papers are all DCWV and the clouds and the alphas are all Sizzix dies.

If you want to get hold of any of the the range of scrapbooking goodies (and come on, why wouldn't you? They're fab!) Just contact me by email and I'll send you a catalogue.

Craft-Ed Portfolio Pages

As part of being a Craft-Ed Consultant, you need to put together your 'Make and Take' pages. These are mine...







I have one more page to do on the 'Birthday' theme, but I've still got to sort the photographs out for that. Maybe after this weekend....?

The other 3 new Make and Takes I haven't got yet, but I will soon and I'll upload them when I've done them.

Holiday Scrapping

I've just signed up to become a Craft-ED consultant and this was what I created out of my training evening last night.




All papers are from Die Cuts with a View (DCWV). Alphabet is 'Junk Draw' from Sizzix.

I'm pretty pleased with these! YAY!
