Last week I did a workshop for some lovely ladies from my Church and as part of the Workshop I demonstrated the Simply Scrappin kits using the gorgeous Love Sparkles Simply Scrappin Kit.

I love this kit and all the elements it has and the colours and the papers – its just gorgeous! Especially for anyone doing scrapbook pages for little girls and one of my favourite little girls is my gorgeous Emily!

Emily has a huge love for anything little and particularly little furry things!

You should see her Littlest Pet Shop collection – I’m sure we have more here than you’d find in the local Toys R Us!  or Uncle Pete’s store!

Everything you see here has come from the kit – well except for the photo. The paper, cardstock, adhesive die-cuts and decorative strip were all in the kit

This is a very simple and easy 6×6 layout to do using the Simply Scrappin kit -  and it probably took 5 minutes to create.

The hardest part was working out what photo to use!

I hope you like this little layout … it was fun to make and you could get these kits to show your kids how to scrapbook too!  Its a great way to get them started!

Have a wonderful long weekend!

Hello and welcome to another Saturday Sketch from the Utah Divas International Group.

I love Carol’s sketches as you would know if you’re a regular visitor to my blog.

Now when I first saw today’s sketch I thought it wayyyy too busy but I’m pleased with the card I’ve made. –

Oh and guess what??

NO STAMPING!!

I do hope you like my card.

I have had the Love Sparkles Simply Scrappin kit for some time and have wanted to make a whole array of projects with it and thought today’s sketch would be perfect and just traded the circles for hearts.

I am allowed to do that – Carol said so!

I love the colours and everything in this kit!

The Simply Scrappin kits are a great purchase! They have so so much stuff in them you can make so much. 

Each pack includes ….

• eight 12×12 sheets textured card stock (2 each of 4 colours)
• 6 sheets  double sided patterned paper ( 3 each of 2 different designs)
• 6 sheets Adhesive Die Cuts (2 sheets of 3 different designs.

So as you can see its great value!

Now don’t forget to pop over to the Utah Divas International Blog to check out the other projects the Design Team there have created – now they are all in USA so you may need for them to wake up before their projects are uploaded.

Now I’m off to do some scrapbooking – yes you read that right!! Me scrapbook and I’ll have some exciting news when I upload that layout! So make sure you pop back.

Thanks for stopping by ….

So naturally I had to do some stamping – didnt think I’d miss my stamping so much over the holidays but I must say I have made up for lost time as I’ve had to prepare for 5 workshops with the first today and one every day till Monday. Whew! I think Tuesday I’ll fall down and not get up for a day or two lol!!

I did get home to a tower of mail and packages!

Of course I opened the packages first …. well after unpacking as hubby said I couldnt open them until the bags were unpacked. What a mean man … surely thats some form of abuse? Two of the packages were birthday presents for me … one from my dear friend Makeesha and another from a good friend in USA.

Now [much to all Aussie demo's dismay] I have to tell you I squealed when I opened the package from USA as it had their new Stampin’ Up!® Scallop Border punch!! I’m sure you all heard me squeal and I’m very happy to say that all my customers will be able to order it from the Summer Mini Catalogue which starts December 1 so start saving girls!!

The other birthday box I got was from Makeesha – this ladies just oozes talent and love! I am so blessed to know her and have her as a friend!

This project was posted on Makeesha’s blog yesterday so you’ll be able to pop over there and get the tutorial on how to make these awesome boxes.

She has used the Secret Garden Simply Scrappin’ kit to make this one and I just love the papers and colours in that pack.

The Simply Scrappin kits are full of awesome little goodies that you cant get separately in the Idea Book and Catalogue and I just love scrapping with them as it makes it so easy for you!

Now when you life the lid off you can see how the ribbon is thread through to hold the little love notes and envelopes around the side.

Mind you I did get excited when I opened mine to find not only the gorgeous love notes Makeesha made but also a little box of chocolates and several coffee bags – does this woman know me or what??

I had meant to take this box to today’s demonstration to show the ladies but I did forget to take it along – I’ll have to try and remember to take it along tomorrow!

Here are the gorgeous little love note cards that were in the box along with the lovely birthday card Makeesha made me again using the Secret Garden Simply Scrappin’ kit.

I was so blessed with alot of cards for my birthday so I want to thank everyone who sent me a card – even hubby commented on how many I got this year especially considering he forgot my birthday last year and no he hasnt lived that one down yet! Not sure he ever will

Before I go I want to share with you the layout the ladies made at the demonstration today.

Again its using the Secret Garden Simply Scrappin’ kit and it was inspired by one that Andrea (who also happens to be in my team) did last week.

I do like how this one turned out and the ladies today were impressed with how easy it was but also at how elegant it turns out.

My little girl is growing up hey???

Have a great night and if you’d like to book a demonstration to see the Simply Sent kits in action then please do as I’d love to share them with you!
