There will be tons of craft stash including scrap booking, card making, jewellery making and sugar craft supplies for sale along with a Stampin' Up! demonstration and inspiration area where you can do a FREE make and take, as well as enter my FREE raffle and if you like place an order, book a party or ask me about starting your own Stampin' Up! adventure. Hope to see you there.
Now, my friends Chrissie and Mandi have started up a new weekly challenge blog called Less is More and it's right up my street. Pop along and join in and see what they have created to inspire you. This is their first week and the challenge is pink, black and white, along with the stipulation that your creation is also clean and simple. I couldn't resisit making more than one so here is one card three ways:
I love this colour combo and have used Basic Black, Whisper White and Melon Mambo, along with some Pretty in Pink too. Here's the first card (and my favourite)
I've used stamps from the hostess level two set Cute by The Inch with textured papers and designer patterned papers too. Here's the white version:
I've slightly changed the layout on each one but kept the design the same. Here's the pink one, which I think looks a little wonky!
I've also used the pricking tool and mat pack to create some faux stitching and drawn the stitching using the white gel pen and Markers:
Well I have tons to do to get ready for my event tomorrow. Wishing Mandi and Chrissie loads of luck with their new challenge.
