Well I'm still making lots of stationery and samples, on the day goodies for a local hotel ( place cards, post box etc), I'm still a member of the Kanban Design Team for Aspire Crafts and am still thoroughly enjoying it, making commissioned cards and jewellery and looking after my gorgeous grandson when my daughter is at work. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And I've been on holiday too!! </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Oh and occasionally I do housework lol </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I will update as often as I can, I think I have hundreds of cards I could show from this year alone but I won't....not all today anyway ;) We have had some fabulous kits from Kanban and there have been quite a few this year. I really enjoying making samples which are shown on <a href="http://www.createandcraft.tv/"><span style="color: blue;"><i>Create and Craft.tv</i></span></a> when the kits are demoed, certain shows are broadcast simultaneously to <a href="http://www.createandcraft.com/"><i><span style="color: blue;">Create and Craft.com</span></i></a> in America too.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here are a few pictures from the Pretty In Lace kit</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He is just so adorable and I love spending time in his company. In fact there have been very few days since he was born thirteen months ago, where I haven't seen him, I'm very lucky. This last photo was taken a couple of hours ago from my sun bed (sorry to all who are experiencing a damp bank holiday Monday but we are enjoying a well earned break. Back to reality in a couple of days though ;)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have a couple more samples I made from the kit to show you. I think I made 11 samples in all and I have absolutely loads of it left. I think Keith said on the show that there were 113 pieces in the kit :)</span><br />

DH bought me a new one for Christmas as my old one kept telling me I had a hard drive problem but after a couple of weeks the wifi stopped working so the only way I could get onto the internet was to use a cable. This hasn't proved to be very good as every time I moved my laptop the cable fell out. In the end I had to reinstall all my work etc back onto my old laptop so I could carry on working. After many searches of the internet and much talking with HP it has resulted in him doing a complete back up of my new laptop and reinstalling of Windows. He is now in the process of installing everything back on to the new one (and the old one still keeps shutting down on me and still has the hard drive problem!) so hopefully this week I should be back to normal. I have been missing FB messages and emails so if you have been trying to contact me then I apologise. Please leave me a message and I will get back to you asap. As well as the dicky laptop I have a dicky printer too so am having to use DH's printer at the mo to print out my work. Oh and to top it all, my mobile keeps freezing too, I have to take the battery out and leave it for a while then put it back in and reboot it. I don't know what I've done but technology and I just aren't getting along at the moment and I thought it was all supposed to make for an easier life lol</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I must have made hundreds of cards and wedding bits since I was last here! We have had a few new Kanban kits too so lots of samples have been made, which is why I'm here today. The new kit is called Hugs and Kisses and is exclusive to <a href="http://www.createandcraft.tv/shows/Kanban-New-and-Exclusive-Weekender--2521032"><span style="color: blue;">Create and Craft</span></a> as the weekender. You get 100 pieces in total and there is a £10 saving on the normal price plus free p&p which is another saving of £2.99! The design team got the kit to play with a couple of weeks ago and have come up with loads of different samples between us. I will start my samples off by showing you two ways in which I used the die cut pop up boxes. I used one in the usual way then made a gift box with another. The nice thing about these boxes is that they are all double sided and some are foiled too, it's a lovely kit.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is another brilliant kit from Kanban which allows you to make absolutely loads of cards very quickly and you can embellish them as much or as little as you like.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"Hi all, The design team all loved the kit when we got our sticky little mitts on it ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I thought I would show you my favourite sample card and box which I made using the kit. Now I must admit that I don't make many card boxes because my measuring is pants and I usually end up making the lid too big for the box but not this one....it must have known that it was for a special card :)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For the card and the box I used A3 sheets of white pearlescent card, a 7" x 7" greeting card, assorted elements from the Peacocks & Feathers A4 pad, item #50489. I used a couple of assorted dies and a few Pastel Bling and a sheet of tissue paper to line the box. I'm going to make another one so if anyone wants me to do a quick tutorial then please let me know.</span><br />

More about that later.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Kanban design team were lucky enough to receive the latest kit for the shows on <i><a href="http://www.createandcraft.tv/CategoryGridView.aspx?fh_location=%2f%2fcreateandcraft%2fen_GB%2fcategories@lt;%7bcreateandcraft_8127%7d%2fbrand_cc@gt;%7bkanban20crafts%7d">Create and Craft</a> </i>this weekend. We had a very tight turn around but as always the team came up trumps and managed enough between us to give Sue and Keith a good display :) It's a lovely kit with some fabulous colour combinations and very easy to work with. There are actually a couple of kits, some lovely foiled card, an A4 pad full of bows, butterflies and peacocks, ribbons and feathers, gems and much more. If you didn't catch any of the shows today (why not?!:)) there are plenty more on C & C tomorrow (unless anything sells out which is very likely) and they are at 3 am, 7 am, 11 am, 2 pm, 7 pm and 9 pm so plenty for you to get your teeth into.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here are the samples I've made so far:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The design team were lucky enough to get the kits a couple of weeks ago so we could make samples with it and we all agree that it is a beautiful kit to work with. The kit includes images and frames, florals and stripes, assorted shapes and there are even inserts available to but to co-ordinate with this kit.</span><br />

My reason?......Well at the time I had a rather heavily pregnant daughter who didn't want to be on her own but unfortunately didn't have an internet connection at the time. Since the 20th July however, this little fellow has arrived and completely disrupted all our lives :) Meet Archie who has completely stolen his nana's heart!</span><br />

We received a new Christmas kit from Kanban late last week and it is fab. It's a Nordic theme in shades of red and blue and all the backgrounds and toppers etc work so well together. I wasn't very keen on it when I first opened my DT kit and don't think I would have bought it, </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">but after playing with it over the weekend I just totally fell in love with it! I would be more than happy to make my own Christmas cards from it, that's how much I fell for it :) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, you need to make yourselves a nice hot drink and lock up the kids as the kit is being premiered on the <a href="http://www.createandcraft.tv/ShowGridView.aspx?showId=2449672">Kanban Christmas Show</a> on Create and Craft at 5.00 pm and 8.00 pm this evening with Keith, Denise and Dave Bradford.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It took me about 15 minutes to make this card as for my daughter as she was going to a birthday party on Saturday evening</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkCWb5GSc1B4SfPHgsp-YmGjKMb53vLa40cctH44t1PAmieH_JgMneC0gkNgQcXX7Kg1y41FRTZq4aSTLNBLN9dOU9CLDU1SW38MP6Cg8A74H3ShXuo5bsk_ennAyPB9jsthoovw/s1600/S5009391.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkCWb5GSc1B4SfPHgsp-YmGjKMb53vLa40cctH44t1PAmieH_JgMneC0gkNgQcXX7Kg1y41FRTZq4aSTLNBLN9dOU9CLDU1SW38MP6Cg8A74H3ShXuo5bsk_ennAyPB9jsthoovw/s1600/S5009391.jpg" height="301" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> and I liked it so much that I decided to make a thank you card for a lovely lady (who helped my daughter and her boyfriend with some very useful advice) and it took me blooming ages as I couldn't get the dies lined up with the stamps. In the end I decided to use the simple uncoloured stamps and was really pleased with it again.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I then decided to make another birthday card to pop in the box in the nail boutique/hairdressers who stock my cards. This was a quick make too as the dies lined up with the stamps straight away! This time hubby snaffled it for his aunt whose birthday is at the end of the month. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I think I might just make another birthday card when everyone is out of the house and smuggle it into the shop in among a pile of other cards waiting to go to the shop lol.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For some reason I woke up at 6.45 this morning and couldn't get back to sleep so I thought I would get up and sort out some photos for my blog and web site as they are both getting an update this morning. It's a while since we have done any work on the web site so as it's a long weekend we thought we would spend a bit of time on it. I uploaded the photos for this post on Wednesday so that I could sit and write a post and here it is now Sunday, and I'm sat here writing this post!! Not very good is it?</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I find making these bracelets so relaxing and always take beads etc with me on holiday. I've made them on trains and planes, and it the car and people are fascinated by what I'm doing and will often stand and watch me lol.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I made quite a few on holiday last year too and didn't come back with any (although I did give a couple away as prezzies :)).</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have my DD1's bracelet on my desk so I can take it to pieces and remake it for her. Hers was the first Kumihimo bracelet I ever made a couple of years ago and she has never taken it off until now. I made it in pale pink and silver and it's so pretty but she's a hairdresser and it has different dies etc on it and the cord has stretched too. I'll use the same beads but new cord.....in fact, I may just do it this afternoon.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've had quite a run on these bracelets so far this year and I really love making them. I don't like making them all identical and like messing about with the way I string them and by not using the same beads all the time. Although I have made quite a few white and silver ones...they are really pretty. I will be adding the bracelets to my web site later today :) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I haven't taken part in any challenges for absolutely ages so I thought I would try some of the ones I used to visit. If anyone know of any good ones then please let me know :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, it's a beautiful day, if not a little nippy, here in Scruff's Corner and I feel I should be out in the garden. However, I have wedding work to do so it will have to wait. I'm hoping for some nice weather over the long weekend so I can get out then. Monday has been reserved for shopping by DD2 as her and her boyfriend move into a flat on 3rd May and they are starting from scratch, but the rest of the weekend is free.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So the challenge I have chosen to start with is the <i><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://allsortschallenge.blogspot.co.uk/"><span style="color: blue;">Allsorts Challenge</span></a> </span></i>as it was always one of my favourites :) Their theme for this week is Spring Blossoms and I have used one of my new stamps from <a href="http://www.clearlybesottedstamps.com/"><i><span style="color: blue;">Clearly Besotted Designs</span></i></a>, isn't it lovely. Stephanie is just so talented, I love her stamps and dies.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've stamped the image onto ivory card and coloured it with Promarkers, I then embossed a piece of ivory pearlescent card and mounted them onto cream card. The label is actually stamped onto one of the labels I use for my jewellery, I added a pink bow and pink gems and hey presto a very quick and easy card but I like it a lot!</span><br />

Well, the kit was absolutely fantastic and the girls on the Kanban/Aspire Crafts design team were lucky enough to be given a kit each to make samples with.....and we all fell in love with it :) There are some of the sheets in the kit available on the <a href="http://www.aspirecrafts.co.uk/index.php?route=product/popular"><i><span style="color: blue;">Aspire Crafts</span></i></a> web site.</span><br />

I've always remembered someone making or buying my mum a basket similar to this when she had my brother a long time ago. We lived in Belgium at the time so I don't know if it was just something they used on the continent but no-one in the UK seemed to know what I was on about whenever I mentioned it lol </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I thought it would be handy to keep here when #1 Grandson arrives that way we don't have to lug great bags full of stuff about when he comes to stay and it keeps it all in one place. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's a long time since I had my sewing machine out to do something other than repairs. I used to make loads when I was younger but I haven't actually made anything for years.I thought the fabric was just gorgeous, it's pale blue with tiny white stars on and I bought it in Dunelm. I'm thinking of making a couple and filling them as baby gifts to sell on my web site.</span><br />

My story involves bad backs and crappy lap tops but I won't bore you with the details, I just hope I can get some posts done and get caught up with challenges etc before the lap top packs in again! :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have loads to catch up with so I will start at the beginning of this month with any news, challenges etc and once I'm up to speed with April I will start on March (assuming I don't get stuck again!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So the new challenge for April from the Crafting Muskateers is a good one. The theme is "Monochrome" and the sponsor is Anice McNamee from Funky Hand who has very kindly donated a £10 download voucher which can be spent on the Funky Hand web site. Here is an overview about FH..... </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><i>"Funky Hand started with the launch of our first backing paper CD '<a href="http://www.funkyhand.com/backing-paper-cds/funky-hand-originals/the-funky-one">The Funky One</a>'. Things have certainly moved on since then and I would like to thank all of our wonderful customers for making our time in the craft business such fun! <br /><br />There are a lot of exciting things ahead for Funky Hand so keep popping back to see what we are up to. Anything that I want to let you know about will be added to my blog <a href="http://funkyhand.blogspot.com/"><span style="background-color: white;">Funky Hand Thoughts</span></a> as soon as it happens. I update it regularly with new card designs to inspire you, exciting news that I want to share and just general day to day chat. I look forward to you visiting me there! Don’t forget to leave me a comment so I can drop by your blog if you have one.<br />If this is the first time you have visited Funky Hand or if you are a Funky Hand customer and friend I am sure you will find something to inspire your paper crafting projects amongst our CD-Roms, downloads, stamps and stash. Don’t forget to take a look at the examples of cards, scrapbook pages and word-books for each CD or Download collection, new ones are added regularly. My thanks to my design team members Kathy, Jackie, Amanda, Jenny, Lou, Allison, Debs, Ni, Belinda, Debbie, Samantha and Ruth for all their hard work creating fab new card designs to add to the ones I pull together when I have a spare moment! As well as making cards for this website and my TV appearances, the Funkettes also run a monthly challenge blog - <a href="http://getfunkyandcraft.blogspot.com/">Get Funky!</a> where there are Funky Hand goodies to be won. Why not have a go yourself?"</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Anice very kindly gave the CM design team a download of their choice to work with and I chose the limited edition "Mother of Mine" download kit. I used shades of pink (apart from the bits of green on the flowers ;)) from the kit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Why not pop over to the <a href="http://craftingmusketeers.blogspot.co.uk/"><span style="color: blue;"><i>Crafting Muskateers</i></span></a> challenge blog and take a look at the fabulous DT cards and entries? You have plenty of time to join in as the challenge runs for a month! We are also looking for a new member to join our wonderful Design Team as Sheena has decided to step down from the team due to other commitments. </span><br />
