Facebook Live ...

Hi Everybody,

Just a quick reminder to join me tomorrow at 12.30 on Craft Stash Facebook Live for the launch of the new collection Butterfly Trails.

This is such a pretty and useful set of dies that will create many different styles of Butterfly Cards for you.

Ove the next few videos I will be sharing with you some of the ways in which I have used them, and I have to say that I really like every card that has been produced with this set.

This Friday the 8th I have two videos to show you and the picture shown is yet another video that will be on the blog next week.

So please be sure to come back for some more Butterfly inspiration

More tomorrow ...

Birthday Wishes

Hi Everybody,

Here is a really appropriate card for any wine lovers that have a birthday coming u soon.

I must admit that this was made some time ago and I forgot all about the card. But now now here it is and it is complete with it's own box.

I used a pink and white colour scheme and card is a 300gsm so nice and sting to create the box 

I have had to add this today because I have been busy doing videos to add to these pages with the new Butterfly Trails Collection.

Lou and I will be showing it to you on the Craft Stash Facebook Live page this coming Friday and it is a lovely die set that I hope you will like.

More tomorrow ...

Sunflower Card

Hi Everybody,

I am adding a card today that I made when we did the Craftathon last week. This was an appeal to raise money to help the people in the Ukraine.

I am sure that by now you are aware that we raised over £7000 and this will go in some small way to help, and I know we all wish that there was more that we could do.

There where some lovely projects created on the day and many names that many of you will already know.

Later on today Lou Collins, who as one of the hosts on the day, will be on the Craft Store showing you the latest of my collections called Butterfly Trails.

I have sent samples to her to show you what the dies can help you to make and I have several videos lined up as well. This set is so versatile and I am really happy with it.

Friday Freebie - Fairy Wishes

Hi Everybody,

Todays offer is from Crafters Companion and is a lovely large Fairy Die that will cut beautiful borders along the edge of your cards,

The Die Cutting Essentials magazine will give you lots of ideas on how to use the die as well as many tips and tricks for other techniques that you may like to try.

If this is something that you would like to have then all you need to do is leave me a comment at the end of the post with your FULL NAME.

I need your full mane to be able to identify correctly the winner. If two or more of you have the same first name then it becomes difficult and of course anonymous could be just about anyone. So please check that you have added your full name ... your real name and not your media one ... otherwise your comment will not be entered into the draw.

Be sure to come back and see if you are the winner over the weekend. 

I am happy to send the pack to your wherever you live and it doesn't matter if you have won before. 
Good luck everybody

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
