Go Nuts!

Happy Wednesday everyone.  It's time for me to show another design using the Woodland Animal stamps from Creative Studios and designed by the lovely Sam Poole.

I've used the Squirrel stamp for todays project as well as the A6 Leafy Background stamp.

As always, the full "how to with photos" is on the Creative Studios Web page so do please go and have a look.

He really is very cute!  I thought it would be a great card for a man (and we all know how difficult they can be!)

Sam has announced that she is looking for a new DT member so that's another great reason to head over to her website....it's great fun and you get all the new releases to play with!

Don't forget to tune in to watch the shows on Create and Craft on Sunday.  If you can't relax and watch what you want on Mother's Day, when can you!

Well. that's it for today so until next time....keep crafting!

I'm Back!!

Hi All....I'm finally back from my travels so normal service will be resumed as from today!

Firstly, I had some fantastic news while I was away and the logo next to this is a clue.

I applied to join the enormously talented Sam Poole's design team just before I went away and much to my amazement was chosen.  There was a lot of jumping up and down and cheering going on in a small café in Corfu when I finally got some Wi-Fi and found out....there were also a few funny looks from the locals!  Even better, when I got back yesterday, there was a package from Sam with some fantastic new stamps to play with.  I'm straight off to the studio as soon as I've posted this to start playing with them.  Hope to have some piccies to show you tomorrow but in the meantime, check out Sam's website and have a look at them.


As I don't have any projects to show you today I thought I'd show a photo of 1 of the ports we stopped at.  This is Hvar in Croatia.  It was stunning and is best avoided every August when Paris Hilton and loads of other "celebs" invade it complete with paparazzi.  There is also very loud techno music pumping out 24 hours a day but the rest of the year it is a beautiful, peaceful fishing town.

We sailed into Venice at 6am and the light was fantastic.  There was a classical quartet playing on the deck of the ship as we made our way along, going past all the famous landmarks.  Champagne and smoked salmon were on offer as well.  What a way to get to Venice!
Anyway, enough of my wafflings....off to do some "work" with my new toys.   I'll be back tomorrow...happy crafting.
