I did manage to tick a couple of jobs off my list.

Since Yesterday I did manage to tick off a couple of jobs on my list, no doubt I will add a couple more jobs to the list by the end of the day.
I managed to make Harvey's birthday card & get that in the post, I managed to make some samples using product from the new mini catalogue and also prepare my Stampers 6/7 kits ready for Monday night, so all in all a good day.
I'm sat here writing this post 7 editing pictures of the cards I've made & realised I got a little carried away as this card doesn't fit into any of the above categories.

Baby Blossoms

This set is an absolute must have set from the current mini catalogue, it is just fabulous & so en trend at the moment & so in keeping with the Vintage / Cath Kidston style.
I have to be truthful & say I got mine FREE on of the perks of being a demonstrator is earning free stamp sets in promotions throughout the year. 
When the set arrived I was initially not even going to mount it as two step stamping sets used to scare the life out of me, But now I am totally in love.
I found a sheet on the internet on a fellow demo's site that simplified the stamp set & took all of the brain fudge out of using it. I had seen so many beautiful projects, once I started stamping with this set I was hooked.

All of a flutter

I am always on the hunt for new ideas to extend the use of my current stamp sets & I found a beautiful picture online using the same format but with rows of coloured hearts. So I adapted it using the All of a flutter butterfly stamp. 

The images are stamped using the Basic Grey ink pad, Coloured using the Stamp n write pens & blender pens, the image has a lovely shimmer that was achieved by using the frost white shimmer paint, the backing card is Chocolate chip, I just dip the blender pen in the lid of the paint & hi-light areas on the stamped image. I keep all of my pringle tin lids as they make great disposable palettes

Something simple

Time & time again when doing demonstrations I get such positive feedback, but something that always comes out of the feedback is that people want cards & projects that are achievable at home & without guidance. They love the complex projects that take 3 hours+ to complete but would never dream of trying it on their own at home. So I have been looking at ways to simplify some projects & this one is a direct case from the mini catalogue.

The stamps used in this project are All of a flutter, Framed with love & Basic phrases
