Meeting Tim!!

Just home from Birmingham, extremely tired with sore feet! Had a great time chatting to suppliers and meeting new people! I really enjoyed watching the very talented demonstrators doing their thing and making it all look so easy. Rhonda and myself got the chance to talk to Tim and get our photos taken with him, after watching him demonstrate the brand new Distress Markers. We even got one of his creations signed by himself!

Hi there, hope you're having a Happy New Year! A week of 2012 gone already! I decided today would be a day for messing as the classes don't start again until next week. I needed a wee break from tidying and sorting, so this is my finished product. I absolutely love distress stains and of course the distress ink too.
I decided to go for a different colour scheme from my normal choice and I am so happy with the result.
The caged bird is die cut out of Grungepaper and coloured with walnut stain distress ink, the square background is a white 6 x 6 board book cover, stained with wild honey and various inks. A mix of stamp sets created the bakground patterns. All in all it was great fun.
Hope you like it. If you want to see the real thing, call in to the shop as it's on display. :)

Woo Hoo!!!!

I was absolutely delighted to find out I had been picked in the Top 5 for my Space Miki card in the Pink Gem challenge!!!
All the entries were amazing so thank you ladies for my badge!! You made my day. Now i have to get myself organised to do some more!

This is just a wee simple page using the My Mind's Eye Lil Robots papers.

These are the pages I did for my scrapbooking class on Saturday. Loved these papers, from my minds eye Quite Contrary range.

I have been guilty of neglecting my blog lately, but I have been kept busy. We were at the Trade show in Birmingham a couple of weeks ago and did so much walking about it's taken me ages to recover!!

Now we are waiting for all the new goodies to arrive.

Met Tim Holtz and got my photo taken with him... His work is amazing, I'm a distress ink and grunge paper girl!!! All the new distress inks should be with us soon I hope. The colours are absolutely gorgeous.
