Only 3 days to go

If you havn't bought that stamp set, Designer Paper or embellishment that you really really want out of the Summer Mini Catalogue, or there's one of the Sale-A-Bration sets (which  you  receive for free with your $120 spend), now is the time to put your order in as both finish at midnight on Thursday March 31st. I have both catalogues on the right hand side of my blog  if you need to have another look, email here if you wish to place an order.
I have had trouble uploading my photo's this morning grrr, so I will try again this afternoon, with a few of the projects we have done with these catalogues.

Technique's Album

This is the Techniques album I made at Jacque Pederson's class. Don't you just love it, each time I do a different technique I can add a sample and instructions to my album.
Would you like to make one of these albums, come to a class and I will teach you how to make it, after that I will hold a series of classes (one each month) to teach you a different technique, you will make two different projects using the same technique in each class, plus make a small sample to add to your album with the instructions.

Cake Anyone plus a Quick Little Tip

Ink: Chocolate Chip
Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Chocolate Chip

A Quick Little Tip

I was having a little play around on the weekend and wondered if you could colour our Basic pearls.
I used a Stampin Write marker to colour the pearls while it was still on the backing sheet , I adhered the Pearl to a little flower I cut out with the Boho Blossoms Punch, then  heated it with the Heat Gun for only a couple of seconds be careful as if you heat it for to long the pearl will be ruined, (don't touch it as it might not be dry), I left it for a few hours to make sure it had dried completely.
