Stampin' Up! Regional training event

I've been so behind with my blog lately, but I'm trying to buck my ideas up so I'm back today sharing the card swaps I made recently for a Stampin' Up!  Demonstrator training day,

I made a 100 swaps... I used the Stampin up Papillion potpourri stamp set, stamped on to vellum cardstock using back stazon ink, I've then coloured in the butterflies using Stampin write markers...

Heres my swaps

Heres my name badge, also using the same technique..

Everything I've used is available right now in my online shop, 

Til next time 

Happy craftin, Laura xx

Stampin up blendabilities class

Saturday several ladies joined me for my technique class and this months technique was Blendabilities, I LOVE these markers and couldn't wait to share them with the group, and boy did they love them too.. They each purchased a set of markers prior to the class in their colour choice, so I based the card designs on crumb cake, basic black and whisper white...

Heres the cards they each made..

                            

Above : This card used the gorgeous sweetbriar rose stamp, 

Below : blended bloom stamp

                            

Below : Woodgrain stamp, Papillion potpourri stamp set 

                            

They all loved the cards, and the blendabilitie markers, and could wait to go home and carry on using them..

Make My Monday–Butterflies challenge

This week its my turn to choose the challenge theme and ive chosen Butterflies, well i am butterfly mad as well as many others crafters out there…

Heres My card… using a favourite colour of mine Blackberry Bliss, this time ive teamed it up with Sahara Sand

The Papillion Potpourri Butterfly Stamp set from Stampin’ Up! is my all time favourite, I love that it has coordinating punches – so no cutting out my butterflies…

I must admit this card was super quick, but i made an error and stuck my layer on upside down but luckily realised in time to peel off and stick down properly !! it was late last night!! well thats my excuse

The grid background is from a new Design paperstack called Moonlight, It features some gorgeous papers – the sort you hate cutting into! they come in a pack of 48 sheets, for only £6.25 each sheet measures 11.4 x 16.5cm and are all double sided

Thanks very very very very much a fab new stamp from Fabulous Four, and thank you to you for visting me today : )
