I have today resigned from Scrap Sanity Design Team. 
My life is busy at the moment professionally and personally, so I feel I cannot put in 100%. 
I have enjoyed my short stint on the DT and feel honoured to have worked with the ladies involved. 

Thank you for the opportunity, I have made many wonderful friends, 
happy crafting and I'll see you when life is not so 'full on'!

Bead Pins!!!

The card below was made with the new Alison Ellis Design papers - "You're Invited".
 I didn't like the paper at first but it's beautiful like this as a background.  I also added Flourish With A Bling diamonte's to the centre of the pieces of the pattern - I think it's very effective!  I love how effective it is on the envelope too :-)

This is a white 5Petal flower from Crochet By Kim.  I added the brand new Bead Pin also from Crochet By Kim and the I love you notepad charm from My2Angels.  I love this combination and coiling the bottom of the pin just finishes it off :-)

Thanks for stopping by!!

You're Invited!!

I have always wanted to explore Faberge' style eggs.  
Recently at the Brisbane Stitches and Craft show The Logan Egg Artistry club had a booth.  I was excited and inspired and the new "You're Invited" papers from Alison Ellis Design were perfect for the basic decoration... 
add some bling, some flowers, and some of the new bead pins from Crochet By Kim and you have a Faberge' Egg, a la Jen!

A close-up of the cluster at the back of the egg with charms, flowers, bead pins, a tassle, and ribbons.

The Purple Chloe Flourish With A Bling Pearls are b e a utiful!!

The stand is actually the bottom part of a Twiddleybitz "Miss Charlotte" 
(I chopped her off at the knees! LOL)

Paperific 2012 - Cards for AED

A new day, a new show, and new papers... what more could a girl ask for??

These gorgeous papers from Alison Ellis Design are PERFECT for invitations etc...
Introducing "You're Invited"
This card outside I used a rose from My2Angels and a 5petal flower from Crochet By Kim.

This pop-out cake was care of a Hot of the press template, the glitter from Alison Ellis Design, Purple pearls from Flourish With a Bling!

Tim's rosette die with more gorgeous diamonte's from Flourish With a Bling.

This range also has a number of images on 1 sheet - card blocks, this are great!  Just added a charm from My2Angels to finish this one off :-)

The cream and gold papers are DIVINE!!  This is the Tattered Rose die assembled loosely as per Tim Holtz.

Another view of the cream and gold - you can see the gold embossing here, the embossing powder is also from Alison Ellis Design.

Please ask your local stockists when they will have these available as they are shipping now and if they aren't planning to get them yet - ask them to!!
