Good Morning

By
Hello - did you miss me? Last week was a total washout as I was not very well and was unable to craft much at all. I started to feel better around Thursday - which was good as I had my monthly workshop that night but I haven't really felt 'normal' again till now.
My craft room is in a terrible state however I have made a couple of cards - the first of which being this week's DT card for Make My Monday.
The challenge this week is to create a card or project using Autumn/Fall colours - take a look a what I created using a Christmas stamp set


Well you can't have Autumn without stags and deer - BBC AutumnWatch have proved that! - and these fine specimens belong to the new White Christmas photopolymer stamp set. The trees and hills also belong to that set but the trees are bare - the leaves have been borrowed from another new set Holiday Home - also photopolymer.


If you like to create cards with scenes these sets are for you and at only £13.95 each are a bargain - I know I'm going to be able to use both these sets all year round.

Materials - Stampin' Up
Stamps: Holiday Home, White Christmas, One in a Million (retired)
Ink: Bashful Blue (retired), Pear Pizzazz, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Early Espresso, Black Stazon
Card Stock: Whisper White, Cajun Craze
Accessories: Decorative Label Punch, Dimensionals, Burlap Ribbon (I pulled one of the strands out), Brayer

To place an order for Stampin' Up products please email me on deezinesart@icloud.com - there will be a charge of £4.95 for p+p but anything you order can be dispatched direct to you anywhere in the UK.

The only thing with being ill is that not only do you you fall behind with blogging but the housework doesn't do itself either - off to do some :(

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
