Catching Up

Today I'm going to catch you up on lots of things, its been a busy time for the last few weeks which has left me hardly any time to blog - naughty!

Firstly, a quick and easy card made with my new Britannia CD...

All of the elements and the Gramophone paper are from the 'Heritage' collection on the CD - I used the pre coloured images of Henry 8th and Queen Elizabeth 1st (although there are black and white versions for you to colour on there also!) The only things I added were the scrap of kraft paper and a piece of brown and white twine, everything else is printed from the CD - pretty good right? ;o) If you haven't got your copy yet, you can get hold of it here.

Secondly, after the great response I got to the new 'Craft Basics' range launched a few days ago, I decided to create 'Scrap Basics' for those of you who love to digi scrap

They will also tie in with another little announcement I have to share with you in a few weeks, watch this space! ;o) You can get hold of these kits here in my shop.

Finally, I shared some pretty amazingly exciting news over on my Facebook page today, I will be sharing it here on my blog next week but if you just can't wait, head on over there to see what I'll be starting work on next week - squeeeee!

Now I'm off for a very quick dinner with B (you won't believe this but I've resumed my learning to cook and its actually going pretty well, I'll be sharing some of my receipes and pics of my first non-disaster cooking EVER here soon!) Then later I will be back hard at work on some new designs which I can't wait to share with you.

Apologies this was a bit long and rambly, lol, things are a bit of a whirlwind at the moment, exciting times ahead! :o)

Thanks for stopping by today

Introducing... Craft Basics!

If you're anything like me, you'll be constantly looking for those basic pattern papers, I use up all my polka dots, stripes, chevrons etc... super quick and then have nothing to co-ordinate with my other patterned papers! So I've designed the perfect solution - Craft Basics! A downloadable / printable paper pack which contains basic patterns in two different sizes in all different colourways.

Currently available in the range are Polkadots, Stripes, Ginghams, Chevrons and Honeycombs in Brights, Pastels, Earthtones and Vivid colours. There is also a kraft paper pack containing one of each pattern in a kraft paper effect (this may be my favourite!) These are fantastic as you can print them off as much as you like, any time of the day or night, it's like having your own craft shop on your computer! I've printed the vivid chevrons (above) off twice so far already and I can't wait to print the others.

To check out the full range and get hold of your favourites click here. All of the colours co-ordinate with my CD's etc... so if you're using my products everything will match perfectly (though there is enough colour variation to match them with anything!)

Thanks so much for looking and I look forward to hearing what you think and seeing what you make with them!
