The New Stampin'Up Catalogue is Here.....

and I love it !!!! There are so many gorgeous new products including pretty crocheted lace trims, vintage brads, beautiful designer papers,  new Sizzix dies and lots of fabulous stamp sets. There are so many things I want so decisions, decisions what to buy first.
I was able to pre-order a couple of stamps before they went on sale, when I saw 'Forever Young', I knew straight away I needed this one. Here are a couple of cards, there are more to come, this is just one of the stamps in this set, there are also silhouettes and a cuckoo clock which is beautiful and so different.
I chose the colour scheme of Daffodil Delight, Perfect Plum and Wisteria Wonder when I saw  this card by the talented Mona, I would never have put these three colours together myself but when I saw Mona's card they work so beautifully together.

For the second card I just stamped half the tree  and coloured the leaves and blossoms with the Stampin' Write Markers.

Don't forget you still have until tomorrow to enter my give-away .

Thanks for looking.

Bright Pink,Black & Grey...............CR84FN 38.

The weekend is nearly here,any plans? I started a 10 week photography course on Wednesday with my friend Kerry, so we're going for a woodland walk to practise our camera 'skills', lol. Hopefully in the next few weeks you will see an improvement in my photo's. Watch this space !!!!!
Well, CR84FN have done it again,another gorgeous colour combo. I love to use grey on my cards,so much softer than using all black.

My first project using this fab colour combo is a pin cushion using the new Stampin'Up Timeless Portrait and Flirtatious fabric which co-ordinates with the papers and stamps.I made the fabric flower by ripping a length of fabric,folding in half and making a running stitch along the bottom edge,pulling tight to gather the fabric into a circle and adding a grey button to the centre.

I've used hot pink on the back.

Here's a card to co-ordinate with the pin cushion.

I love this stamp set Forever Young from the new Stampin'Up catalogue, the silhouette and frame are just a small part of this set, I will be showing you more cards in the next few days using the other stamps,the papers and ribbon are also SU.
I hope you all have a good weekend,back soon, I may even have some great woodland photo's,lol.
