Workshop

We had a good day yesterday, everyone really enjoyed themselves, though it's tough to get everything done in the time. There were 14 cards, my 7 and Jo's 7 (I'll get her to send me the pics and put them up) plus a little Chocolate Wrapper which you will see when you scroll down. The lunch was good as usual, we have homemade Pie, Chips and Peas which I think I might have mentioned before, but after lunch things slow down a little!!!!!

 Here's a picture of some of the "Girls" in action.I thought I had everyone in the frame but you can only see Lorna's hand and bits of some of the others. There were ten workers, Jo is the one standing on the left and of course I'm behind the camera.

So here are the rest of my cards



This one uses Whisper White ,Lucky Limeade, Pool Party, Pink Pirouette CS, the script is from the Charming Stamp set stamped in Soft Suede, the flowers are Stickers from the Kit and the ribbon is Chocolate Chip Satin. .



For this one I used the chevron DSP, Scallop border, and Penny Farthing sticker, from the Kit. Lucky Limade, Pool Party and Pink Pirouette CS, Nesties Scallop Circle Standard and Small and Lucky Limeade ruffled ribbon.

The two lined elements are stickers from the Kit, stamped with the flower from the Charming Stamp Set. The smaller one was cut down to size from a larger sticker. The sentiment is from Petiti Pairs stamp Set. I used Pool Party and Lucky Limeade to ink the flower stamp (the bird was printed on the sticker) Pool Party CS embossed with the Square Lattiec embossing Folder. The Early Espresso Textured CS which comes in the Kit and Pool Party ruffled ribbon.





And Finally ..............




The Chocolate Surprise
You Pull the knot and up pops the chocolate bar.

I used Early Espresso and Pink Pirouette CS, the Two Tags Die cut, flower for the Charming stamp set, Thank You from Curly Cute both stamped in Early Espresso ink and Early Espresso grosgrain ribbon. I was given one like this at Convention in November last and at the last team meeting I attended, this was with my adoptive team as my upline lives too far away for me to attend hers. I loved the idea and I think the ladies yesterday did too.

Hope you like the cards we will be holding another all day workshop on April 14th if anyone would like to attend leave a message.

Back soon x

  1. Thanks for such a fab day. This is a set I wouldn't have bought, so it was great to have an opportunity to work with it. Impossible to pick a favourite card out of so many brilliant ones. It'll take me ages to use up all the leftovers, too!
