First Team Training

Today I hosted my first Blue Angel team training. We had a good laugh, ate cake and planned our Mini Catalogue Launch parties (don't forget mine is 9th April - book your space now!) Then after the business chat we had to have a play, of course! Above you can see Diane, Amy & Katie (L-R) busily playing. If you'd like to come to training, why not join my team? Email me for more information blueangelcrafts@gmail.com

Here is a photograph from a scrapbook page we showed people at the Make It! Show at the end of February. It uses the Growing Green stamp set and features Old Olive, Very Vanilla and Cajun Craze colours. The images were stamped and then scribbled/coloured in using a marker. Naturally there is some scrummy ribbon too - look our for a satin ribbon share coming soon on this blog! The scrapbook page givess a simple but quite a modern look, I think.

Tomorrow we're going to celebrate my birthday (it was actually on the 12th) with my in-laws so I am looking forward to a lovely family lunch - my sister in law is a great cook so I know we'll eat something delicious! See you again soon...

Growing Green Scrapbook page

Hello hello! It's Wednesday already and I've a scrapbook page to share with you. I can't take credit for this as my upline Natalie designed the page but this is the one I made. It features the stamp set Growing Green and the colours Crumb Cake, Old Olive and Cajun Craze.

Lots of punches and a little satin ribbon. Yum!! Natalie taught this layout at the Farnborough Make It Show last weekend and it seemed to be well received.

Today I've been making samples for the craft day I am running on Saturday 19th March. It's not too late to book a place if you'd like to join us! Email me for more information: blueangelcrafts@gmail.com

See you again soon!

Make It Show - Day 3

Today I thought I would share the cards we made in the card class we ran at the Make It Show this weekend. The above card is in Concord Crush with Very Vanilla and a mat of Crumb Cake CS. I'd never used this Fine Flourish stamp but I am now totally addicted. It looks amazing stamped with glitter too, so I will try and do that soon.

This card also featuring the words from Punch Bunch, a Sale-A-Bration set. I love this set and am really sad to say that TODAY is the LAST DAY you can earn/get hold of this set. The sets will never appear in a future catalogue or promotion. Boo hoo! Email me if you'd like to make a £45 order today and get your hands on one of the sets before it's too late.

This is the second card that we made in the card class. The main image is from Fun & Fast Notes stamp set, a super-useful set that covers pretty much most occasions. Everyone had fun with blender pens to colour in their image with Pumpkin Pie ink. The DSP is Sweet & Sour speciality papers and the words are from Sincere Salutations.

The lovely but sadly absent Mrs Wonka sent me this Business Card Holder made using the SAB set, Bliss. Isn't it divine? I have taken it home to use in pride of place at my next workshop. Thank you Mrs Wonka! (Get wells soon too)

There was lots of interest in my Retreat Day in Ash on the 19th March - don't forget to book your place soon to avoid disappointment. Booking closes on 5th March.

I'll be back tomorrow to share the new promotion that will be running in March to check back here soon!

Make It Show - Day 2

Welcome to Day 2 of the Make It show! If we chatted in Farnborough this weekend - hello to you!!

Above is the card we had as a Make & Take this weekend. We had a 100 ladies (and a few guys) making this gorgeous card each day. The colour combo is Marina Mist & Certainly Celery. The main image is Pocket Silhouettes and the sentiment is from Perfect Punches. I can't for the life of me remember the name of the butterfly set but, isn't is pretty? Lots of punching and pretty ribbon too!

Tomorrow is Day 3 of the show and just the last two days of Sale-A-Bration too! If you'd like to take advantage and get your hands on one of the beautiful 4 sets up for grabs you need to place an order of £45+ with me. 9You can see more about the promotion by clicking on the orange button on the top left.)

Make It Show 2011

Today we were at the Make It Show in Farnborough. It was a busy busy day and I met some lovely people.

These photos were taken before the "maddness" began. All neat and tidy. We had a demonstration table, display area, Make & Take table and we also taught scrapbooking and cardmaking classes at the workshop area of the main venue.

If you are coming to the show this weekend, make sure you stop by and say hello as we're here on Saturday AND Sunday!!

Farnborough Make It! Show

Hope to see you at the Make It! Show this weekend. I'll be on the Stampin' Up! stand along with the other lovely girls. Come and say hello!!
