Been busy!!!

Life sometimes gets so busy that theres no time to do my favourite things, but his is quite a simple card I 've made this week using old and new from stampin up The old is the soon retiring elegant lines embossing folder and the new is the simply pressed clay and moulds for the little flowers on the bells. Do you know what I've used for the bells? Its the bib from the owl punch. Joanne Galnar's idea at Regionals just love it.. We had a blast last night at my launch party where I showed the ladies how easy the flowers are. My downline Michelles demo was with the Best of flowers set super topper she made.I'll try and get a photo to post ASAP.  Off to play some more now  Hope to be back sooner rather than later!

One Stamp Set Two Cards


This stamp set Stippled Blossoms is my favourite at the moment together with the baby wipe technique.
I've so wanted to play with this set but have had to wait for a few weeks. So glad I ordered it!
I stamped using large blossoms with Pretty in Pink and using the the stamp-a-m-jig to position the top layer. I used my reinkers on a baby wipe for the flowers. The large flowers  were stamped onto the card and another layer made and cut out to decoupage over the top. Although the leaves may be stamped two step I only used a single stamp. Hopefully I 'll have some more time tomorow to play.

I'm so pleased with these little origami boxes they are made using the Tea for Two papers. The large one a sq 12 x 12 madium 8 x 8 and the tiny one 4 x 4 together with some gems and a little lace on the large one. they didn't take too long about 1 1/2 hours. I think if i do them a gain I'll distress the edges.I've some matching cards to share soon.
