Love, In The Shape of a Card!

As mentioned in my last post, I have received a few cards from fellow demonstrators lately & am loving that I can share them with you.

World Card Making Day was a couple of weeks ago & my mates were busy indeed!!

Have a look at their creations!

 Jenny & I have known each other for many years & cross paths at various SU! events, so to receive a card from her is pretty special!

Her message of support may have made me smile & tear up all at the same time!!

Here, Jenny has used the stamp set, Charming Cafe with Berry Burst with matching ribbon & markers with Softly Falling embossing folder (R).

How bright & cheery is it?

Using Crafting Forever, Sue fussy cut the scissors image & popped it onto Dimensionals, so that it matched the sentiment. It is just perfect with Follow Your Art DSP, isnt it!!

I look forward to finding her among 600 other fellow demos when we attend OnStage 2019 in Sydney in November!

Mel caught me on an emotionally flat day, so this ray of sunshine absolutely turned me around!! He message was beautiful...

She has used Everything Amazing, a stamp set that didn't do anything for me, but now it does!!

Sometimes you have to set it in 'real life', as they say, to appreciate it, hey?

Thanks for staying close to see these cards, Im so happy to have shared them with you!!


Happy stamping! Jo.

Happy & Unexpected Mail!!

Isn't this just the best kind - happy and unexpected mail??

A hand written envelope & certainly not one with a window, just makes me smile before Ive even opened it!!

And the whole world, (well my world), stops while I undo the seal of the envelope and....pull out the creation!!

That was made just for me!! Yippee!!

Alison, a fellow demonstrator used a retired kit to make this card on World Card Making Day!!

And while it looks resonably simple, it has stamped images, stickers, multiple layers & a touch of bling - Just a perfect smile to send through the post!!

This card is another example of Alison's work - she has been busy thinking of me, hasnt she? LOL!!

I was lucky enough to see a post on a Facebook goup asking for a family that would love to experience a live show. I commented, mentioning Alison's family of her husband and two boys & they won the tickets & got to go backstage to see the props etc!!

So Alison sent this to me to say thanks!

Using the gigham  DSP & pairing with matching butterfly stamps, it just screams happiness, doesnt it!!

Be sure to check out Alison's page to see more beautiful work, made with love.

Ive still got 5 other cards to show you, so come back on Wednesday to see what they are - you wont be disappointed!

Happy stampin', Jo

Looking Trim!!

Wahoooo!! Our new SU! trimmer has arrived - well to current demonstrators who wish to purchase it!!

It's so slick & precise with its cutting - you will love it!!

 It has a deeper blade and of course, the paper scorer, to make folding cardstock for boxes easier.

 The only way to purchase one of these Trimmers, is to be a current Demonstrator...sooooo if you do wish to buy one, it can be apart of your Starter Kit - ask me how to become a SU! demonstrator now.

Otherwise I will let you know when you can purchase your own trimmer!!
