After a long leave of absence from 'blogging' I am pleased to say I have been running a new blog in the background over recent weeks and have now opened the site to the general public and search engines. 

The new blog reflects our house move to this gorgeous property and also my New Craft Studio, located in the flint fronted building.  The new blog is still very much 'work in progress' but will continue to be updated on a regular basis, bringing you all the up to date news from Stampin' Up! and my increasing number of classes being added to my schedule.



Please pop over to stampnstudio.blogspot.com to see lots of new changes in my life this year.  I am now please to be able to share this information with you and look forward to welcoming you to visit my New Studio in the near future.

Happy Craftin'

'ORGANISE' 2015

Evening crafters

I hope you are all having a good New Year so far.  

 

Yesterday I spent some quality time taking out my dear friend & unofficial 'adopted' Mum to Norwich.  Meeting up with Cathi to drop off her Stampin' Up! goodies over a coffee and catch up, we then continued to natter for ages, through lunch and then visited Sew Simple at Taverham, a wonderful craft shop which has a huge selection of materials. 

With Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Bration just around the corner, there are such lovely items available to earn for FREE to tempt us all.   Details will be revealed on 6th January .....

To make room for my new and exciting stash, I've started another blitz of my craft room to make room.  Keeping busy from 7am till bed at 1am, why does it always seem like a never ending job ?

It's quite therapeutic really sorting, filing, re-arranging and then moving again etc.    I know many crafters in the same boat as me, managing to 'acquire' a mass of products but 'needing' new stash all the time !

In the process, I cut and folded a whole box of card bases, liners, envelopes and card layers, just ready to be made into some quick cards.  The temporary Post-It labels will be replaced at the weekend. 

Inspired by Tracy SP, a fellow Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, my buzz word for this year is ORGANISE and certainly started the year well.  Thanks Tracy, x

CHILLING' OUT

Afternoon crafters

 

Hubby and I are having a day chilling out, having driven David's Auntie back home to Manchester yesterday with an immedate turnaround back to Norfolk, we were on the road from 8am to about 4:30pm. 

 

For those of you who, like us, haven't seen any snow the last couple of days, I'm sharing a couple of snowy photos taken on our journey home over Woodhead Pass, near Barnsley, and the beautiful blue sky backdrop.

Pop back soon and I'll hopefully be able to have a spot of 'holiday' crafting.  Hubby working at home and I have a few chores to do first thing, but looking forward to getting in the craft room after lunch. 

Happy craftin'

KINDA ELECTRIC 'CASE'

Morning crafters

This is the card I made for was Julie's birthday, based on a CASE of a card I saw on Pinterest.  Whilst going through some of my Christmas stamps recently, I found the lovely 'Wishing You' set from Stampin' Up!, sadly now retired.  I love being able to get more use out of stamp sets for different occasions than originally suggested.  This stack of presents are equally at home for Birthdays, Christmas or any  occasion where a gift is given. 

 

The background has been created using Kinda Electric stamp set #135347 (W) #135350 (C), stamped in Mossy Meadow with presents and sentiment stamped in Blackberry Bliss. The sentiment is from a set that retired a few years back and but this individual stamp from the set, remains one of my favourites.

DENIM OWL STOCKING

Evening crafters

 

This afternoon I managed to snatch some long overdue crafting time while David and Auntie Ellen were watching TV.  

 

I had been sharing with Julie how guilty I felt being so (understandably) behind with my festive plans this year and how different next year would be, starting early, booking in with my half cousin to make FIVE quilted stockings in January.  I've now managed to achieve another NEW craftmaking project to knock off my 2015 monthly challenge list, ahead of the game :-)

 

Julie was interested in an appliqué style one so for her birthday, I made one using our Stampin' Up! Owl Builder Punch as a template, enlarging as necessary.

The cotton liner and appliqué owl were made from Stampin' Up! fabrics that retired several years ago.  I still have quite a stash which need to be used up. 

Here is a close up of the appliqué owl.  For the eyes, I only cut the largest size in fabric. The middle and smallest I see buttons from my stash which I think worked really well stacked on top of each other.

 

For my first prototype, I was really pleased with how it turnedout and really enjoyed making it. Julie was really pleased and couldn't believe I had made one so quickly :-) 

Happy craftin'
