Christmas Gifts for my class of 2015

At my last card class of the year we all swapped a handmade gift

This year I sourced some super cute Marie Clare mugs, I loved them and into it I put homemade hot chocolate mix, the recipe came from Skinnymixers.  I also made some chocolate spoons to add to it, with a little lindt chocolate ball added in. 

All that chocolate goodness wrapped up in one small package.

 the gold poinsettia was made with the new Stampin' up! poinsettia punch, I just used gold foil and glued it all together.

Super cute I think.
Hope everyones Christmas preparations are going well, only a few days to go eeek!

A change is good - Right???

Sometime in August my 6th anniversary as a Stampin' up! demonstrator happened.  Today I am no longer a demonstrator for Stampin' up!.

It has been a wonderful 6 years but its time for me to move on and try other things.  I love to be creative, I love getting inky!

While I still love Stampin' Up! products and will continue to use them most especially their fantastic cardstock and adhesives, I will also be using a lot of other products from other companies that I enjoy.

So stay tuned for 2016.

Hopefully I can still offer you all something to inspire you

With love and regards

The present detail tutorial i found on Splitcoast Stampers

 The second card is a bendy card

and the third card is simple but i love it. It was inspired from pinterest.

Clean and Simple Happy Birthday

Just stopping by really quickly to share a card I made recently, I don't know about you all but I am super busy at the moment with school ending soon, work hours increasing and Christmas right around the corner, I will have some Christmas things to share really soon but for now here is a card inspired by Pinterest.

Thats it for now,

Thanks for looking

Hallow Eve

Evening everyone.

I thought I would pop in with a couple of ideas for halloween tomorrow night. While I know its not very big here in Australia, some still celebrate it.

I am not one for trick or treating, I just don't like my son door knocking for sweets.

However we are heading to a halloween party tomorrow night with a bunch of kids all in one place where they can dress up, eat sweets and be safe!

I thought I would share a couple of treat bag ideas for the event.

These little bags I bought from Kmart - I got 20 for $3.50 and they came in kraft like below or white.

Perfect for a quick and easy treat bag.  The stamps, framelits, designer paper and black glimmer paper are all from the new holiday catalogue from Stampin' Up!

Little cello bags with the die cut warlocks hat, and a diecut BOO cut from black glimmer paper.

How cool are those eyeball, skeleton and brains chocolates?

For those who choose to celebrate Halloween have an awesome day/evening filled with a lot of fun

Nothing brings me more joy then to see my son having fun!

Happy Halloween everyone!

Happy Monday everyone, heres hoping its going to be a great week!

I have a quick and simple card for you today

The card base is Crumb cake, with layers of whisper white, another crumb cake panel, and some neutrals DSP from the stack.

I added some white satin ribbon with a bow and a whisper white banner.

The only thing not Stampin' up! is the stamped diecut.  I had that leftover from a previous card I was making so put it to good use.

I love the simplicity.

Have a great day and rest of your week!
