Last weekend saw my annual Summer Stamp-a-Stack Event at Kettering Park Hotel & Spa, where I bolted on the Birthday Wishes Event Challenge, in aid of Ronald McDonald House Charities. Our son was born some 10 weeks premature and spent the first 6 weeks of his life in a special
Oh, So Succulent at Kettering Park
Last weekend I held my first ever Overnight Retreat and at what better place than Kettering Park Hotel & Spa. Many of my ladies had pestered me for a while for an overnight crafting session and so I set to work planning and organising … and our Overnight Retreat was born.
Craft Retreat & Spa
How do you like the idea of heading off to a Spa on a Friday afternoon with friends, staying overnight and combining it with some fun crafting? Well this is just what’s happening today for a group of my ladies and is the very reason I’ve been somewhat tied up
Christmas Pines for Elegant embellishment
Christmas Pines is by far my most favourite embellishing Bundle that could have been sold in this year’s Autumn/Winter Seasonal Catalogue. It may be delicate and need a gentle hand to produce them, but aren’t all cards and projects lovingly made anyway? I just love how a simple sentiment, can be embellished with

Number of Years for both Men and Women
I swear Stampin’ Up! knew how much I needed a stamp set like this this year. Even since my last post using this set, where I mentioned how many Milestone Birthday’s that I know of in our close circle of friends and family, it’s increased further. I am literally hearing
You’re so Lovely used with Birthday Bouquet
Do you ever look at a Kit and think “that’s not for me”, so completely dismiss the co-ordinating Stamp set? …. Yes? …. you wouldn’t be the first to and I’m sure you won’t be the last. Well next time, take a better look at the stamp set, you’ll be surprised what you
Going Global with Birthday Bouquet for the man
At my recent Stamp-a-Stack of Birthday’s event, I included the Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper pack for the kit bags. With such beautiful colours and floral prints, I must admit initially looking and wondering how I’d come up with a masculine Birthday Card for the event, using the paper pack,
