Manchester Training

Hya,

How are you all? Good week?

I bet you thought i had run away didn't you? Well no, i haven't really. It has just been one of those weeks where time has run away with me again. I have found out this week that i have quite abit of homework involved in my quest as a medical secretary. I have also this week attended some regional training in manchester for stampin' up. We had to make some cards to swap with other demonstrators and there were quite a few to make.

So i thought i would show you my swaps. I have used Melon Mambo card as my base, then layered it with Rich Razzleberry card. On to Whisper White card i stamped using the stampset Boroque Motifs in Melon Mambo ink. I stamped this again and decoupaged on to the Whisper White. I used a gem from my stash for the middle. I stamped using Rich Razzleberry ink again onto Whisper White using the Tiny Tags and used the Jewelry Tag punch to make little tags. These are fastened on with the Gold Elastic Cord.

Pink and girly, that's me!!

I love going to training, i get to see loads of people that i haven't seen for ages and also i get to meet people whose blogg i like to follow. The swaps i got back are very inspirational and lovely. I can't wait for convention!!

Here is a pic of me with the lovely kate who i haven't seen for quite a while. We were abit like naughty kids, god help us at convention as we are roomies.lol......

Well that's me for now. Have a great week.

Jems Training

Hya,

Good weekend to you.

This week I have been with some of my Jem sisters to our stampin' up mums -Julie- for some training. Tues evening Sarah, Kate, Julie and me made some display boards for ribbon to be shown more easily. I have to sat they do show the ribbons really well.

There are also some new ribbons arriving from the new mini catalogue which are more colours for the satin ribbons. If you remember we already have whisper white, well there are also other colours to chose from. I will show you them when they arrive. I cannot wait.

This week i made a card using the Boroque motifs stamp set. I used pink passion card stock and teamed it with basic black. On the flowers themselves i have put flat backed pearles from the Pretties Kit to give some dimention to it. Im not sure you can see them clearly, but they are there, honest! Again i have used whisper white satin ribbon (just for a change-lol!) I really do think it adds the finishing touches beautifully.

Well being saturday i need to get some cleaning and stuff done.
