Additional Last Chance List Discounts!


As you may know the Last Chance List is quickly coming to an end.  Before we welcome many exciting new stamps and accessories, Stampin Up needs to make room in their warehouse by clearing out some high-inventory last-chance items.  For the first (and probably last) time Stampin Up have added a select number of additional discounted last-chance items for the final days of the promotion. Below are the item.

The Last Chance promotion ends 31 August, 2010. All items are only available while supplies last, and with these discounts, they won’t last long!
Get your orders in soon, before these products are gone forever!

More cute ideas with Treat Cups!

Hi!! Just a quick post today to show you one of the items we will be making at our Sweet About You!!!! Class on the 25th of August.  This one has been created for Father's Day (boy that has snuck up quickly!!!) but can be changed for a male birthday card.

Hopefully I'll have a post with all the details of this yummy little class in the next couple days.  Enjoy the last few hours of the weekend!!!

Testing out some new class ideas!

After working full time for the past three weeks I'm now looking forward to spending some time creating and enjoying my beautiful little ones.  Here's a couple of little creations that you will see in some of our up and coming classes.

The first one is a little treat flower filled with mini M&Ms.  THis little cutie uses Stampin Up's Treat Cups and Scallop Circle Die, plus the delicious Melon Mambo Spotted Ribbon.  

Then finally I had a play with making distressed flowers using the scallop circle and circle punches.  I found these on one of my blog journeys...hopefully I'll be able to post the link soon (just need to find it!).

Keep watching  for the details of our next class, on the 25th of August. I'll give you a little hint.....everything revolves around treats!! 

A quick creation!

I haven't had much creative time of late...working full time and trying to run a household of 4, doesn't leave much free time (unfortuately)! I quickly whipped up this little card last weekend.  I love this colour scheme...but then again I love anything with Kraft.  To add a bit of something special to the butterflies, I embossed the white floral images. (It's a pitty this hasn't come out in the pic).

Enjoy your weekend! Hoping to show you more creative ideas soon!
Mel.
