National Stamping Month: September 2013

Summer Fun wall hanging

Here is one of the fun items I made for the CTMH Extravaganza 2013.

A cute wall hanging featuring my friend Jennifer's 3 adorable children.

I used the new Laughing Lola level 2 paper pack, Tan Glitter paper and the Color ready ribbon which I colored using sponges and Gypsy ink.

I cut the base using the new CTMH Artbooking Cricut cartridge. I used the Cricut Artiste cartridge to make the 3D flowers.

Cannot tell you how much I love this new cartridge - it is fabulous - lots of overlays for layouts and images for cards and pages and Mini Albums - WOOOHOOO :O)

Hope you like it - Love Sara xxx

Oh this set is soooo much fun - I have had a great morning playing with this set. 

Who doesn't want chocolate!!

We will be making the adorable 'french fry' container at this months classes - perfect for putting candy and chocolates in - and how fun would it be if you made it in orange and black colors for Halloween :O)

Hello peeps . . . .

. . .  yet again I am apologizing for my lack of posts on here.

Yes I taught at Extravaganza - photos to follow - yes I had a blast :O)

BUT I am having to fly urgently back to the UK to be with my father who is seriously ill with pancreatic cancer and wont last much longer. My heart is breaking not only for me but for my mama who is losing her best friend of 59 1/2 years.

So please be patient with me and I promise as soon as I am back I will post photos of the artwork.

But one more thing - this month Close To My Heart is selling the fabulous and fun Canvas WOTG Art Kit for just $19.95 instead of $39.95.. You KNOW it is while supplies last so follow the link and place your order online so you don't miss out xxxx
