Happy New Year
Hello again and happy new year to my visitors! It’s great to be back and crafting again after a wonderful but hectic Christmas and New Year time.
We had a great Christmas. Hope you enjoyed yours! The kids were so excited to open their presents – hearing their squeals of delight was priceless (although 5.50am might have been a *little* early for squeals).
We went to Mum and Dad’s on Christmas morning, and spent the day there with family. Mum put on an amazing feast for us all – she’s truly amazing. Highlights for me were watching the kids opening their family presents outside in the beautiful sunshine, spending time with my sister and her gorgeous boys, and the walk we all went on after lunch.
Our stamp club for January was held on Friday. It was so lovely to see all the ladies again and to spend a bit of time stamping together. We did the Emerging Colour technique (above), using inks, the All In The Stars stamp set, clear embossing powder and the brayer. To finish up they all stamped a 2009 calendar bookmark.
Now a new month and a new Year brings lots of new treats from Stampin’ Up!
January marks the start of one of the highlights on the Stampin’ Up! calendar: Sale-a-bration. Yes, free stamps! It’s the perfect time to book that workshop you’ve been planning to have 😉
Do you have a copy of the Sale-a-bration brochure? Shoot me an email and I’ll get one in the post to you.
Happy stamping,
