Five Days to go........then it's Fever time....

Ok, so I am now officially excited, for on Friday @ lunchtime I am off to Chesham, to Latimer Place Hotel for ScrapFever April 2008 Retreat....and the pictures of the new refurb look fab. I am planning to upload all the pics I need to print to Costco this evening so that they can be collected on Monday/Tuesday....and I have to start deciding what supplies I want/need to take...LMAO.

I did make another card last night...Another with my gorgeous new Hanglar & StAnglar stamps....I can never get bored of these lovelies.
The other stamps used are Stampendous and Papirloftet, the papers are K&Co "Hopscotch", the ribbons are American Craft, the buttons are from a huge stash I have...I had a buttons addiction for a while...I seem to at least be able to use them now, rather than just hoard them.

It's my Birthday and I'll make cards if I want to...

Well it's here.....today is my ***cough xxth*** birthday. I am off to school for a day of fun and crafting with Georgia and the rest of Year One.

I was a lucky girl this year, I got a Link of London "Sweetie" bracelet from my Dad & Sister, a charm for it from Hubby, and a Momiji doll called Snowflake from Georgia, some Hanglar & Stanglar stamps with the money my MIL & FIL gave me....I will show pictures later.

Anyway here is the card I made last night. The stamp is one of the new Magnolia's and it's Bear Edwin. The other stamp is a Journal stamp by Papirloftet. The papers ribbon and rub-ons are by Rhonna Farrer, the buttons are by Doodlebug & Queen & Co, and I used by ATB tape writer for the sentiment.

Off now to have fun...will be back laters.

Easter Card

I am so loving the new Magnolia stamps. They really have come up with some super cute stamps this release. As soon as I saw the designs I had to order them direct from Magnolia....I just NEEDED them...LOL

Yesterday we had visitors...David's parent came and spent the day with us...well Georgia and I, as David went to work just after lunchtime. We made a quick trip to HobbyCraft as I had a £5 voucher to spend....and of course I ended up spending more than that...I got myself a pack of 8x8 PaperMania Retro Floral papers, 5 reels of ribbon and a couple of other bits for Georgia. Georgia was spoiled as Nana & Pops (in laws) bought her an easter gift....3 bottles of paint, 2 packs of paint brushes and some stickers.

So anyway last night I really wanted to use those new papers....shocking I know....I wanted to use them on the same day and they were PaperMania...LOL.

Materials Used: Bunny Tilda with Egg, Papirloftet journal block stamp, Basic Grey two scoops swirlie stamps, PaperMania "Retro Floral" papers, HobbyCraft ribbon and Doodlebug buttons .

Happy Easter Card

My new Magnolia's arrived from Sweden yesterday and I couldn't resist diving straight in and making something with them. So here is the Easter card I made last night.

I love this little Tilda in the Bunny Outfit...just so darn cute. The other stamp used "Journal Block" is by Papirloftet. The papers are Basic Grey "Phoebe", ribbon by American Craft and the buttons are Doodlebug. The bling was from QVC and is marked as Design Originals. I also used my ATB Tape Writer for the "Happy Easter".

I made another ATC last night, but didn't have time to load it before I left for work, so will do that later.

Anniversary Cards

I really love this Magnolia "Love" stamp, she is just so cute. I coloured her using Prisma's and Sansador.The other stamps on this card are the "rose" and the "love" which were part of the stamp set in February GoGo Create kit designed by Anam Stubbington exclusively for ScrapaGoGo, and the "ticket" is by Papirloftet. I used Autumn Leaves papers by Rhonna Farrer, and some DCWV cardstock.

I intend to give this to my Hubby on our 19th Wedding Anniversary on the 18th of this month.

This next one uses many of the same products. The stamp is Charmer Edwin by Magnolia, the journal block is by Papirloftet, the box of chocolates is also a Magnolia stamp. The papers are the same as the card above. I made a bit of a mess when making this card. Under the journal block is a nice part of the paper, which I stamped directly onto....and I accidentally stamped one of the letters upside down.....I really didn't want to waste the card...so added the journal block stamp.

I really love the Papirloftet stamps....so may have to look for more as I got all the ones I liked from www.CraftyKrafts.co.uk
