Hop Hop its Easter...

Whats not to love with these beauties?

Cute new 'All My Love' DSP and co ordinating ribbons

teamed with Itty Bitty Birthdays stampset.

'Vibrant Vases' new stampset teamed with our new rectangular framelits (my new fav)

PLUS the lace dynamic impressions embossing folder.

A card embossed in its finest gold embossing...

'Piece of Cake' stampset, cake builder punch and rectangular framelits - simply elegant 

Hard to see but rectangular framelits used here too.

Then the school holidays arrived... and so did my kids craft day.

What fun we had making Easter creations

We made a framed bunny (tie dye style)

2 salt dough egg decorations and painted them

and a beautiful embossed Easter card

(and of course there was an Easter Egg hunt)

Kids day out

Why do kids love to make a mess?

We had a busy creative time at my January kids classes.

We made mobiles (thanks to my Mum and Dad for their assistance putting them together)

Mobiles under constrction

Glitter fun

We made an origami slinky fish

 We made a cute puppy stand up card

and a beautiful butterfly birthday card

Hope to see you again next holidays.

March classes and kids holiday class wrap up

Ooops!  Time has got away from me.  Here I am posting what I did in March and its May already!

Nevermind here goes...

My March classes were full of action.  Here is what we made:

A touch of 'Mint Macaroon' tie die effect teamed with our birthday thinlits for a surprise greeting  inside!  A few candy dots scattered here too.

More tie die effects here with another burst of greeting inside.  So easy yet so effective.

Melon Mambo was the star here.

A great team here - My fav Woodlands embossing folder with a peek a boo bear from the Bear Hugs stampset. 

A great way to show off our new thinlit number dies and the co ordinating Number of Years stampset.  A must for any stamp stash.

It was also my Mum's birthday in March so I co-ordinated a gift card wallet to match

Happy Birthday Mum

March also saw the school holidays appear.  Didn't first term go by quickly.

A great time was had at my kids craft day with lots of new faces.

Here is what they made:

They started off with a blank canvas and got creative!

My fav!

A special card for Mum

and a great card for their friend.

The cupcakes for morning tea were a hit too!

Kids Rule

As usual, I held not one but TWO kids classes in the holidays.  
A great time was had by all (I think!)  
The first craft day was 'Babooshka' themed.
Here is what the kids made and did a really good job with:

There were boy and girl dolls - shorts, pants, jackets and dresses to choose from.

I love the extra detail in this one!

The completed 'suite' of Babooshka things the kids took home with them.

Watch this space for the next kids day wrap up.

It's all go in April

WOW! What a busy month it has been.  School Holidays, Kids craft day, Easter, Retiring list of Stamp sets and Accessories announced and selling like hot cakes... the list goes on.

Here is my April wrap up.
My kids craft day was lots of fun.  The kids loved making the button tree.

My April card class used products from the Occasions Catalogue.  There are some awesome products in there!

Here is what we made:

The super cute bow punch

Awesome new co ordinating stamp set and punch

Hearts embossing folder and chalkboard paper - how cool is that?

A fab new wedding stampset and more chalkboarding!
