Sharing the Dream!!!!

Well they say you need to share the dream to make it reality.........to break it down into bite size pieces and make it manageable.

But first you need to share it.....

Here is my dream...Stampin' Up have announced their 2014 Grand Vacation. An incentive trip that all demonstrators world wide can earn. It is an all expenses cruise to the Western Carribean!!!

And what makes it more exciting it is just ten days after I turn 50!!!!

Now wouldnt that be an AMAZING way to celebrate!!!!!

So I thought I would share my dream of achieving this trip and taking the love of my life with me to say thank you for being there when I need him and for all he does for me and to do that in style!!!

SO....bite size pieces......I need to book classes where I can share the love of Stampin' Up! with others. I so love this company and the friends I have made through it and the products....well the products are just amazing and getting better....did I mention the new Autumn Winter mini catalogue that is out in just a few days and the new main catalogue due on the first October, which will have most of the products that they do in the US as Stampin' Up align all their international markets!!

If you would like a fun evening with friends, a chance to earn free products, to make some great projects and play with fabulous products then let me know and I will book you in to the diary.

Thanks for reading this and letting me share my dream with you..........

More scrapbooking!

Hasnt this weather been fabulous? My children are all away at Scout camps in the sunshine and I am at home working and decorating.
I will share my new workspace with you later in the week but I thought I would share another beautiful page today.
This one is quite bold in its use of the flower punches, the flower stamps and paper flowers but as you can see it doesnt drown the photos and as per normal with Stampin' up! it showcases how beautifully everything coordinates (even coordinating with the little girls clothes!!).
Again apologies I dont know who did this wonderful page.

Well by now you all know that I love scrapbooking and so I thought I would share some pages from a recent training we had. This gorgeous page is from the competition we have each time and I love it. Its so simple, gentle and focuses the eye and mind onto what is truly important about this page - the photos of a memorable day. It is so fabulous. I'm sorry but I couldnt remember who made this page - I really need to make a note next time - but they certainly are very talented. The other thing I love about this page is that it showcases the main qualities of Stampin' Up! The fact that the products go naturally together, the papers, the inks and the punches. There is also small amount of embellishements and texture that just lift the page.

Simply Scrapping

At a recent training I took lots of photos of the most amazing projects - they were both inspiring and creative.

Here is a wonderful scrapbook page. So simple but so lovely. I cant remember who did it, I'm so sorry, but who ever you are it's just lovely.
