March Easter Workshop



As promised, for those of you who missed the workshop this month, I have uploaded the photos of what we did. Firstly we made a very cleaver "Bag-a-lope" which converts an ordinary envelope into a gift bag, and in this case an easter egg treat bag. If you go hereyou will see a tutorial on how tomake it. Then we made these cute little easter egg baskets. Of the 3 I have here, 2 I have covered in Designer Series Paper and the purple one (lavender lace) I stamped straight onto the cardstock with Elegant Eggplant ink. Click here to find a tutorial on how to make these lovely little bags. You could make one for your child's school teacher or the like....

Lovey-Dovey Valentines Cards




I did make these before Valentines Day, but I just didn't get them up here for you to see!! The card with the chocolate rose I made for my brother to give to his girlfriend I used the stamp set like-o-meter 117723 from the Spring Mini. The other card I made with the I{Heart} Hearts 117715 stamp set, also from the Spring Mini. I must admit, I love this stamp set and the fact that it co-ordinates with 2 of the punches makes card making a breeze. I will post more cards from this set soon. But remember to hurry if you would like any of these stamp sets as they will go at the end of this month when the Spring Mini catalogue finishes.
