Criss Cross box

I would like to recreate all the UStamp projects for this round. Its been hard finding the time lately, life has been very busy, so I am way behind!!

This is the first project a criss cross box with cards. I haven't made the cards, I thought I'd fill the box with goodies to give to a friend. I have used sweet slumber specialty DSP and petal pizzazz stamp set. Sorry for the quick post I'm off to pick the kids up soon!

Very cute

Look what came to visit me today, 12 little ducklings, how cute!! They have found a nice little spot in the garden to sleep. I wonder how long they will stay. The kids want to keep them, as all kids would. They will be disappointed when they leave. Well I better go and get tea on. I hope to be back later with some stamping to show you.

Great friend gift

I have been having fun this week making gifts. The first one is for a friend of mine, I just thought I'd send her a wee gift. I used a card I made at Megan's my Upline and I have made a notebook to match. I have used great friend out of the mini, and the beautiful raspberry tart DSP.

The second gift was my swaps for UStamp, but I can't show you them just in case my swap sister Kim is peeking at my blog!! And because I forgot to take photos of them before I posted them.lol:( so hopefully Kim will take a photo for me so I can show you them. I can already tell the week is going to fly by. I hope to make some time to do the Mojo Monday and a UStamp project or two. Fingers crossed:).

Thanks for stopping by!!

Recess window

Hellllooooo. How long has it been? Far to long!!!! I have had a long week. But now I am up to date I can get back to blogging!
We had regionals here in New Plymouth yesterday and It was great!
I got an email from Hollie, from Australia a couple of weeks ago asking if I would do a WOW presentation at training. Its not my thing but I decided to have a go! And it was exciting to be asked. I decided I would show everyone how to do a recess window card, because I have been wanting to make one and haven't got around to it. Well nerves were thick and heavy, and I was wondering "what was I thinking" lol, but luckily I was first up and got it over with first thing so I could relax and enjoy the rest of the training day. These are the samples I made to show everyone.

If you want to have a go and make one yourself here is the link for the tutorial from splitcoast stampers.

Thanks for stopping by:)

A thankyou gift

This double pocket bag and card is a gift for a new friend of mine! I can't say who they might be peeking at my blog. he he. The stamp set is called simple friendship and was in with my gift package I received form Dawn. I think it will be one of my favorites for a while, love it. I have filled the bag with chocolates, its a pity I couldn't fit the whole box full in the bag I may have to eat the rest.Yum yum. Thanks for stopping by:)

Coffee treat box

Whaaaa Hooooo. The next round of UStamp is underway and by the looks of things its going to be even better that the last round. I have already been to the chat rooms to chat with everyone, it is a great way to meet some amazing new friends from all over the world. This is the 1st project that I have made for UStamp. I call it a coffee treat box, because I love coffee and treats, who doesn't.he he. If you haven't joined UStamp yet don't worry just go here and and sign up. Its going to be 28 days of fun fun fun. Time has been getting away from me lately but I have been working on some projects that I will show you soon. I have also made a card to match, I love things that match. If you want to make one of these chocolate treat boxes just send me an email and book in for a class. Thanks for stopping by:)

Mojo Monday # 102

How time flies when you are having fun!! I have been stamping my heart out this week making things for UStamp which is due to kick off on Friday in the states and Saturday for me. Wha hooo I can't wait. Anyway I made this card today with a set not many of you from here would have seen, its called hello again. Yesterday I received a gift from Dawn Rapsas as a thankyou for all my work for UStamp and this was one of the sets I received. I was like a kid at Christmas all day yesterday. So I had to use one of my new sets for the mojo Monday today. I have used retired colours that I loved from the last catty. Check out all the other entries here.

Well I better go I have a bit more stamping to do tonight so I can use my new things. I will show you what I have made tomorrow. See you then:)
