A Christmas Tri shutter card


I must confess this is a lift from a card I saw on Splitcoaststamper. I can't remember who created the original but she was a SU demonstrator in Australia. I thought it was fantastic.

This card uses Old Olive as the base with Ski Slope DSP and the wonderfull Winter Post stamps.

Hope you like it as much as me.

This post will remain at the top of my blog until 17th October. Please scroll down for newer posts. Thank you!


I have a Stampers 10 club starting in October. Are you interested? Would you like to receive some FREE Stampin' Up! products???

By commiting to spend just £15 (plus p&p) per month for 10 months, you can gradually build up your Stampin' Up! supplies. Each of my 10 club members will take it in turns to become the 'virtual hostess' for a month and benefit from receiving a free level 1 hostess set and £15 worth of freebies (of their choice) from the catalogue!

You could also when you are that month's hostess, add extra orders in by either a home workshop or from friends. This gives you the opportunity to earn maybe a higher level hostess set and more £££worth of freebies. Does this sound great?

And don't forget!!! The new catalogue is due out in October! All club members will receive a free copy from me as soon as I receive them :o)

The product will be sent to me and I will distribute it.

Those local to me will be invited to a special club night once a month where you can participate in a free project and sort out your order for the following month and collect your latest order.
For more information email me at theresa.a.martin@blueyonder.co.uk

A birthday I made..


I made this birthday card for my step-mother. She loved it, so I thought I'd share..


This card uses the Tea Party Designer Series Papers, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery cardstock. Pretty in Pink, Almost Amethyst ink (and Basic Grey for stamping the verse). A gem brad (round fire). Stamp sets used were Cheer and Wishes for the verse and flowers from the Petal Pizzazz. Hope you like it too.

Cards from my Mini Christmas Stamp a Stack.


Here are the three cards we made at my Mini Christmas Stamp a Stack.
This card uses Night of Navy, Brocade Blue and Whisper White cardstock. Night of Navy and Brocade Blue ink and Brocade Blue 5/8" grosgrain ribbon.
The fir tree is from Lovely as a Tree and the christmas message is from the Level 1 Hostess set Best Yet.
We also used the Large oval punch and scallop punch. The three trees in the foreground also had the Heat and Stick treatment and covered in Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

Again staying with the same colour theme. Bashful blue Designer Paper and the wonderfull stag and ornate snowflakes from Winter Post.

Also the Silent Night set. This lovely big image was also given the Heat and Stick and Dazzling Diamonds treatment.
