Who’s for a cuppa?
I know I could use one right now however its 6.37am and everyone is in bed and the coffee machine makes such a noise I’d wake them all up and I dont want to do that! I’ve been up since 4am and awake since 2.40am – I think hubby really needs to see someone about his snoring! As you know …
I lurv Happy Mail
How many times do you walk to the letter box and your whole being drops when you see all those window faced envelopes (aka Bills)?? Being a demonstrator for Stampin’ Up! I make many sample cards to share at demonstrations or with my loyal blog readers like yourself. I have quite a few more cards than I need so its …
Share a sketch
Its Saturday so its time for another Utah Diva’s Sketch Challenge from the lovely Carol. Today’s is a little different as I’ve combined another challenge in the same card – a colour challenge from Inkspirations4U! So I thought the title for today’s post is fitting as not only am I sharing two challenges in one card but I’m also using …
The Nicest People …
As a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator I’ve met the nicest people not only as customers but Demonstrators who have become good friends as well. I first met Cheryl when I first joined Stampin’ Up! at the first Australian Stampin Up! Convention. A little while later she recruited the very lovely Melissa and she too become a dear friend. Now there is …
Convention Swaps

Here are the cards I made for my Convention Swaps … This is one of …

Friends 24-7
Today I have a combination of two challenges. A couple of weekends ago we held a Cyberstamp on our ESAD (Extremely Special Australian Demonstrators) Yahoogroup and one of the challenges for that was a Colour Challenge of Close to Cocoa, Baja Breeze and Pink Pirouette. Not a combination I would normally use but boy they are gorgeous together! The second …

Today I popped over to visit my good friend and Stampin’ Up! Sister (we both have the same upline) Lisa today and after convincing the boys to finish their lunch we ventured to her craft room. I didnt have alot of time to spare as I told hubby I’d be home by 2.30pm and Lisa had shown me what she’d …
