Season Of Joy Class



My classes last month were based on the lovely, Scandinavian Season Stamp set. Many of my customers have this set and they wanted me to give them some more inspiration for using it :o)

Because this set is retired, I have now changed the class so that it uses the beautiful Season Of Joy stamp set.

If you would like to purchase the instructions for this set, you will find the details below. The instructions will be emailed to you as a PDF document.

The class consists of three cards and a little gift box.


Season Of Joy - Class Instructions - £3.00

More Swaps - Convention 2010

I joined 3 of the organised swaps during Convention. These usually run in groups of 10. Everyone makes 10 of the same item and we exchange them, so everyone comes away with 10 different items.

This is what I made for the Card Candy swap. I loved making these using the Level 1 Silhouette Sentiments stamp set. I love this set :o)



My item for the 3D swap. This was made using the Fancy Flower punch and contains a mini nail care kit.



The Business Tools Swap. These took ages to make, but I loved doing them. The little charms are made using Shrink Plastic. The box contains a punch guide which is a template for all the current Stampin' Up! punches. I used the Artistic Etchings stamp set and the Newsprint Designer Series Paper.



Finally ..... I also took a little gift along for a very special lady .... Eileen. Eileen is one of two wonderful people who look after the UK demos in Demo Support. She is based in Germany and we hadn't met before. It was so good to finally meet her :o)

Convention 2010

I was so glad to be able to go to the Stampin' Up! convention this year! The event was attended by 300 demos from all over the UK, France and Germany .... and just a few from the USA :o)

As with all of Stampin' Up! events, there was loads of swapping. I took several different ones with me. It's not in me to make too many of the same one. These are all the general swaps that I took .....

Inchy Boxes - These were made using the new Petal Card punch and contained a yummy chocolate. I used the Level 2 hostess set Cute By The Inch to decorate them.



Fast & Fabulous cards - made using the Level 2 Hostess set .....



These were my favourite little cards - created with the beautiful Every Moment stamp set .....



Of course I had to make some using Beware Pirates .... and also the gorgeous Level 1 Hostess set Punch Potpourri ....



And the final cards ..... a few using Dasher and the Medallion stamps .....



I took some more 3D items along too. My beautiful sister Faith helped me make these. Each contains a Drinking Chocolate sachet .....
