Misty Moonlight and Cinnamon Cider...

Here are the items used in this card,

the Beautiful World cling stamp set

the World Map die set

Brass Foil sheets

Faux Suede Trim

and the Antiqued Corners and Slides.

Also in the suite is the speciality paper - which I do not want to cut into!!!

[more on that later]

Happy stampin' all.

Hasn't been a newsletter for a while...

One little job I tried to do while in lockdown,
was sorting out - decluttering the
heaps of card-related PAPER I have everywhere,

One box had copies of my newsletters from 2007 even,
when I was selling TLC scrapbooking kits...
most of it went in the fire,
I took photos of some,
(and I still have some).

Anyway, here is the latest version,

Christine's newsletter

Happy reading...only 2 pages this time.

Cards for these strange times...

Managed to get into my craft room this afternoon...

this is a cheerful card
the saying says
"Sending Joy and
Sunshine
Not Germs"

I used the NEW Old World
Paper embossing folder,
coming in June.

And this one I thought
the saying sorta reflected the
NEW World Map dies -
any excuse to use them.

These sayings are from the
Covid-19 digital pdf,
which can be ordered
online at this page
US $12, (double it!)

By last week $161,000 US
had been raised, all to go to
helping with the pandemic.

More designs included (but not all 15 pages)

Sometimes referred
to as Share Sunshine,
a sharing of sunny
hopeful greetings/giftboxes.

Watch for a Sunny
gift box coming
to NZ in August.






Happy stampin'

the new catalogue is coming...

I still get excited after 11 years of new catalogues....
my preorder is in and a box of catalogues is on its way.

I did make some cards, and a scrapping pack for the regulars to hopefully inspire them,

before we meet again.

this is the page I scrapped, showing my cousin Martha Bennett Scott, a first cousin three times removed! 

The cards I made were all made from my scrap basket, and I used the NEW digital Covid19

giveback 'stamps' available online from Stampin Up!

Wow, what a difference 6 months can make...

Still in lockdown in New Zealand, going back to Level 3 next week,
which will not change much for me personally, as having ME/CFIDS
I will be extra careful still. Getting priority for grocery deliveries has
been a godsend, all I've ventured out for is fuel for the farm.
I will like the opportunity to order goods next week - including Stampin Up
of course.

The retiring list is out tomorrow, so I will be placing an order,
for the people who have contacted me. AND this could be the last one -
I am not meeting the minimums required
so it could be a retirement for me as well!

I do still plan to have classes at the farm here, when allowed. We were going
to start on 4th April, but that was locked down. I haven't crafted much,
with paper, in the last 6 months. I do aim to. as I do have BOXES  and shelves
of crafty stuff.

Please get in touch if you want items from Stampin Up,
I will be stocking up on adhesive, 12 x 12 cardstock and I must get that Tropical item
I wanted....
