Back in September, we had our regional training day – which is where we all get together and stamp, basically! ok, there is a lot more to it than that, but we do get to play with new products – which I can’t show you yet, but watch this space! It is also a good chance to meet with other demonstrators and see what they are up to, and swaps are a big part of that. This is my swap. It uses Seasons of Joy, and Many Merry Messages.

Lovely as a Sparkly Tree
This is a card that Sharlene originally did, that I showed my Stamp Club last month, and they LOVED it! In real life it is the most sparkly gorgeous card. Dazzling Diamonds are such an easy way to add bling to a card – and they go for miles! I have made about 12 of the these cards, and still have nearly half a pot left. Bargain bling!! lol

Happy Belated Halloween
My daughter spent the better part of last week punching out cardstock – my lounge looked like a recycling bin! I have been taking online punch classes with Heather Summers (the punch goddess!!) and the last one focussed on holidays – Christmas, Thanksgiving and Halloween to be exact. So, Jordan had seen some of the ideas and wanted to have a go – so she did! We had bats and pumpkins and ghosts and witches and frankensteins all over the place! Then she got inspired and wanted to try her own idea! And this little devil was born! How great is that!!

M 2.....
this little product is a fabulous invention!
It consists of a setting mat, a paper piercing pad, and a paper piercing template.
The "stabby thing" (lol an awl, or paper piercing tool) is available in the tool kit - otherwise a needle works just fine. Stick it in a piece of cork, and you are good to go!
the beauty of this set is that you an paper pierce any project, and know that your lines will always be straight.
You can also line up eyelet holes - jumbo or normal, or work out where your brads need to go to be straight.
Such a simple little thing, but so important for that professional finish.
