A little bit nervous!

I took my box of wares to sell at a small but really lovely local plant nursery today! The lady there really liked them - let's just hope her customers do too!

They are now for sale at Nin's Nursery in Ewelme http://www.ninsplantnursery.co.uk/ if you are local please go and have a look - lovely plants and nice things in the shop too!

I then had to make a quick card for a friend's birthday tomorrow, it needed to be masculine so I used the neutrals inks and the daring adventure stamp set as well as some washi tape from the Autumn Winter catalogue. Turned out ok I think!

I love it when a brown box arrives!!

Oh my pre-order for christmas has arrived - loving the washi tape and the Christmas paper stack! I managed to order lots of adhesive to replace all that I have used over the last couple of weeks - I am so pleased with the stampin up adhesives. They last longer and are better quality than most things I've bought before! I also got a couple of new stampsets and the new in colour inks and cardstock. Look out for creations after the weekend!! Unfortunately I'm not doing so well with my other holiday jobs of sorting and blitzing the house but hey ho!!

What have I been doing for so long?

Well real life has been in the way for a while and now it is the school holidays I'm back crafting with avengence! I had a few days away house sitting and ended up making loads of things on my project list, surfing pinterest to my hearts content and generally having a great time! I even managed to get another retail outlet for my cards and boxes! I have taken a lot of inspiration from Sam at Pootles Papercraft so thanks to her for that! Here are some of my creations!

 Loving the craft boxes covered with polka dot parade and brights paper!
