Busy Busy Busy!!

I'm usually a pretty good blogger, but the past few weeks have been a complete blur there has been so much going on!  I planned to spend the entire past weekend stamping samples for the upcoming Ally Pally Stamp and Scrapbooking show.  I did get a few done on Saturday, but Sunday's plans went awry.  Sheena was scheduled to teach at a Creative Expressions Road show and she had an emergency and I filled in for her (in Bristol several hours away).  In case any of the lovely ladies that attended that class are reading this, I passed my test on Monday!!  

Here are a couple of cards that I have made recently using the new shoe and handbags rubber stamp sets.  If you like what you see, these are finally available on the Particraft website.  They are both fairly simple, but nice cards.  I did enjoy using my new favourite tool, the Tim Holtz design ruler to do a bit of piercing on the first card.  I hope you like them and hopefully I can get a few more done using some of the new designs for you to see very soon.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue
You do love your brights don't you. The You girl go one is quite muted for you. I love looking at your sample as I am not really into bright colours and you help me explore them in my card making. I prefer the first one as even though it's busy you have made it look as if it's not. Very clever. Please keep posting as I look everday and say a little hurrah to myself when I see you have posted!!
Happy crafting

Great samples Sue - I'm growing quite attached to the orange/turquoise colour scheme, it really works IMHO
