Team Training Day - Dauber Box



We decorated a Dauber Box for our second Team Training Day project.

The papers are more from the Twitterpated DSP pack, layered onto an Island Indigo mat.

The letters are from the Morning Post Alphabet set (Main Catalogue, page 146). They were stamped onto Whisper White cardstock and cut out. This was a bit fiddly, but worth doing. They were then placed onto the lid using Dimensionals.

The little boxes are just right for holding the Sponge Daubers. They hold up to 25 and I found them in Tescos :o)

Team Training Day - Soda Pop Top Project



Earlier this month I held a Training Day for members of my Team.  Eight attended and we had a fabulous time :o)

This is one of the projects they completed. The bag design is one from France Martin - an amazingly talented Demo from the USA. 

I wanted to use the Twitterpated Designer Series Papers for my set (Main Catalogue, page 165), so used the colour combination of Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red and Whisper White - with touches of Island Indigo.

The bag and card are also decorated with the Soda Pop Tops (Spring/Summer catalogue - page 24. These were all squished using the Big Shot before decorating with images from the Collage Curios stamp set (Spring/Summer catalogue - page 24).

The background images on the bag were stamped using the Flowering Flourishes stamp set (Main Catalogue, page 121). The flower on the front was created using the Blossom Punch.

All the cards fit inside the bag, together with their envelopes. It's a lovely set to give as a gift and can be adapted for many occasions.








Would you like to join us on our next Training Day? It is scheduled for Sunday June 9th and is open to all Team Members or anyone who is thinking about joining us :o) Contact me for more details ........

Happy Hour - Project Class


For March's Project Class I used the Happy Hour stamp set - Main Catalogue, page 36.

The colour combination this time was Crumb Cake, Summer Starfruit, Raspberry Ripple and Island Indigo.

The papers used were the gorgeous Birds of a Feather DSP.

I wanted to give my ladies the chance to use the new Borders Scoring Plate - Spring/Summer Catalogue, page 26 - so the box and two of the cards incorporate designs from it.

If you would like to purchase the instructions for this set, you will find the details below. The PDF will be emailed to you within 48 hours ... 


Happy Hour - Class Instructions - £3.00

It used the Oh, Hello stamp set from the Spring/Summer catalogue.

The project consisted of a decorated acetate box with four co-ordinating cards.

All the cards were inspired by beautiful designs I found on Pinterest.

Madison Avenue - Hostess Gift / Door Prize


The little boxes at the front contain the gifts that I gave my party Hostesses in January. They are full of ribbon and other little samples of products. I gave them to my Hostesses at the start of their parties to thank them for holding one :o) 

The boxes at the back contain chocolates. Everyone attending fills out a slip with their details and I draw one of these to win the gift.

Now is the best time to hold a party. During Sale-a-Bration there are so many extras available for everyone - but especially our Hostesses!

If the party sales reach £150, Stampin' Up! will give you a pack of Silver Glimmer Paper - although this isn't paper at all, it's lovely quality card covered in beautiful silver glitter. You will also still get £25 of free product of your own choice too!

If the party sales reach £300, you not only get the Silver Glimmer Paper but you will also get a product bundle absolutely free! This consists of the Sycamore Street Designer Series Papers, the Sycamore Street Button and Ribbon pack and the Madison Avenue stamp set - all of these products have been used above to create my gifts :o) Plus, you still get £50 of free product and any item in either of the current catalogues for half price!
