Cards For Customers.

I'm trying to find people who are also interested in creating, stamping & giving out cards that they have made themselves. And I'm doing this by making up small packs with a brochure, my Live video & class details, (when they can begin again) & an example of what they could learn to make.

It's always a fine line between showing off our gorgeous products & not overwhelming the receiver with the feeling that, "I could never make this...". So I decided to use the Beautiful World stamp set & accompanying it with the Worlds of Good DSP!

The way the design ran, determined the way the card was presented, obviously, but they both certainly work!!

How gorgeous is that shine from the Bronze embossing, hey?

I can't wait to finish packing it altogether & handing these out & apart from getting my name out there, it just may give someone a smile when they receive one of these cards - from me to them and then onto someone they care about!!

Thanks for stopping by! Jo x

Spring Time Clean-Up...

When I was using the beautiful clear blocks of Stampin' Up!, earlier this weekI realised just how 'cloudy' mine had become with overuse...

While the curved edges are very nice for my fingers & thumbs, (meaning they do not leave blisters because of harsh corners), what good is a CLEAR block when you cant see through them?
(This may be slightly exaggerated, but you can see that there is a grimy look to my blocks...)

 So it was time to boil the kettle for a peppermint tea, grab a soft cloth & the Eucalyptus Solution & spend just a few minutes to give the blocks some tender lovin' care!
(Please note: do not use any type of scourer on the blocks, they will scratch the surface, resulting on damage to them...)

Even just wiping one side of this small size D block resulted in this much grim being removed!! It really wasn't a difficult task, but like everything in life - we just have to find the time!!

Have a look at how the small block is wonderful, while there are smudges of colour looking through the blocks that are stacked on each other....? Yuck!

And finally my blocks are shiny, shiny again!! I'm certainly much happier to show off my business tools, when they are clean like this!!

And in that short time, my peppermint tea is ready!!

Have a great day, see you again, where I will show you some Christmas tags that I'm working on...
