Create a Cup Cake……..
I'm not one for baking Cup Cakes but am having great fun making them using Stampin' Up!s set in the Spring Mini Catalogue "Create a Cupcake" .....and what makes it even more fun is that it has a matching Punch.

Both the Stamp set and punch can be found on page 22 of the Spring Mini Catalogue which ends at the end of April, email me at frankiesue@ntlworld.com to place your order for these or any other current...
You Are Loved
I'm sure I haven't posted this card before its one that I did at a training event. It uses the You Are Loved stamp set and the luscious Glimmer Paper which both can be found on page 12/13 of the Spring Mini Catalogue, along with the Bird Builder and Itty Bitty punches from the Main Idea Book & Catalogue. I'm going to miss the luscious Glimmer Paper as its great for punching out as the glitter doesn't fall off, so I don't have a hubby nagging me about finding glitter...

Everything Eleanor Birthday Card
The inspiration for the colours used to make the card that I am going to share with you today came from Stampin' Up!s Colour Coach. This is an invaluable tool that gives you gorgeous colour combinations from all the Stampin' Up's Colour Collections. The Colour Coach can be purchased through me and can be found on page 88 of the Main Idea Book & Catalogue. The main colour I chose was Elegant Eggplant and the colour coach had two colour selections, I chose the first, so the other colours are...

Here is the second layout we did at our class last week using the Frightful Sight DSP and again not a spider in sight........ I'm not sure if you can see the buttons to the right hand side of the photograph, these allow you to turn the circle around on acetate and reveal the 3 hidden photographs. This layout is great for hidding those embrassing photo's that people don't like to be shared with others but are great to look back at.......no I'm not under there just the Heidi and...
