Well I can't believe it but our 2nd Birthday weekend is here and we are all ready to PARTY!!!!
As mentioned last week we have a fabulous weekend planned with the gorgeous Phill Martin and the lovely Anne-Marie from Hunkydory today and the very talented Ali Reeve from Stamps Away all day Sunday.
The demonstrations will start at 10am and run through until 4pm both days and there will be refreshments available all day so that there will be no reason to rush off!!
We have been getting organised for the weekend all week and would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for all their continued support for Let's Create and for making it such a wonderful success over the last year.
Anyway, back to Allsorts business! This week is the fabulous Brenda's Challenge and she has chosen
This is the card that I have chosen to show you
I am not sure if you can see the bling but I have popped gems over the sky and the trees and houses are all sparkled with gorgeous Hunkydory Diamond Sparkles Butterfly Trails glitter.
The main picture is an embossing folder from Nellie Snellen entitled Snowy Village. Just running it through your embossing machine and applying Broken China distress ink creates a really simple but effective design.
The frame has been cut from Spellbinders Labels 11 (a favourite of mine!) from navy cardstock. The dies around the frame are Marianne poinsettias, branch and tree with a little bling added for good measure.
We made this in class today and everyone enjoyed it. A great stop gap for the last minute cards that we all need to do!
I must sign off now as I have a million and one things to do before we have our guests arriving.
I will take tons of pictures and pop them on the blog after the weekend.
Please pop in if you are in the area we would love to see you.
Pop over to the Allsorts Challenge blog to have a look at my team mates designs and I would love you to leave a comment on here if you like what you see.
Have a go at the challenge too.
Many thanks and enjoy a fabulous weekend, thankyou as ever for popping in.
Bye for now

ReplyDeleteHappy 2nd birthday to you all at Let's Create this weekend and such a fabulous job has been done by you all over the last two years. Loved getting to know you all whilst I was there and only wish I could have come down and helped celebrate with you all this weekend. However I am in Scotland so a bit far!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck Jo and all the team for the future and hope you all have a great time and enjoy all the demonstrations.
