Sale-A-Bration ends 31 March - Don't miss your FREE stamps!!

On Saturday I held my Creative Card Workshop with 6 lovely ladies attending.

We had 4 hours of stamping, punching, sticking fun, creating cards just like these:

The first card uses the Sale-A-Bration set Good Neighbours - FREE - with your $100 order before this Wed 31 March! We used Night of Navy card, Urban Garden paper and Taffeta ribbon - so cute! I think this card would be nice for a New Home card or Happy Birthday, or any other occasion really. I will add the greeting when I decide who is going to receive my little 'village scene'. So if you want  a free set of stamps just let me know before Wednesday!

The next card is a sneak preview of some new colours and designs from the upcoming Autumn/Winter catalogue available this week. Rich Razzleberry is the gorgeous deep plum card colour with matching ink, together with Cottage Wall papers and the Cottage Garden stamp set. There are so many nice new products in the new mini, please contact me if you'd like one posted out to you.

I'll be holding workshops in May, July and September so please let me know if you are interested. 

Ill be back later this week with the Easter Basket we created, just in time for the Easter Bunny to fill up wth chocolate goodness!!

Baby Pink Butterfly

The baby boom continues with my friend Wanda becoming an Aunty again, this time to little Charlii Jezabel. Wanda asked me to make a card so she could send her love and best wishes to the happy family in Brisbane, and here is what I came up with.

I have used one of my favourite Stampin Up! colours Rose Red for the cardstock matt, stitched ribbon and ink. I have used the 6x6 inch patterned paper from the Patterns Pack II (free when you host a workshop) as the main background to the card.  The greeting stamp is from Punches Three which is punched using the Wide Oval punch, then I've simply punched a butterfly, added some bling and volia a gorgeous baby girl card is born!

The countdown is on til I'm an Aunty myself, only 4 weeks to go!!!! Sending my love to Jo and Jase over in Dartford UK.........get some rest before the big day!!!

take care

Love Carolyn xx

Welcome to the World Baby Boys

2010 is certainly Year of the Baby for me with my darling sister Jo due in mid April, and boy am I excited! Jo and Jason are living in the UK at the moment so I am thinking of ways to be a super Aunty "long - distance" until their visit later in the year. Closer to home I am so happy to welcome two special little boys into my life. Pam and Alex have their "Miracle Will" and he came to visit last week - so cute he is waving to the camera!

That same day my good school friend Jinda, with hubby Matt welcomed their first baby - Aidan - into the world. A week early and just 4 days after her baby shower, Aidan is small but gorgeous at 6lbs 4ozs. I am so happy for my wonderful friends and wish them all the sweetness and love new babies bring.
