more tarisota playing

did these last week. Loved the sparkly, clean nature of July's kit (that I got by surprise). Tamar wanted two of my LO's for tarisota talk - yeah -check these out tomorrow! Couldn't resist a little more handstitching in the Gentle Breeze LO!

Can't wait for August's kit! Bright & colourful this month.

Ethan's @ Grannys as I was down there for a Kei tua o te pae seminar on Saturday. Might see him again in a week or so. Doing an online class through scrapoffaith on Wednesday night - looking forward to it!

Up2Scrap is out - have you seen it? Another awesome job & lots of familiar names alongside layouts - congrats if you were published.

Did some cool challenges @ SBO in the weekend - while others were @ CC - had a go @ a circle shaped LO inspired by a dinner plate - check the gallery for the challenge LO's.

Best go & get organised for another workshop tonight - 'Capitalising on children's curiosity' - sounds fascinating! Seriously.

New Grad

This month I used the 'Sunshine Vibes' bundle to create this layout for the Stampin' Up Artisan Design Team. Using die cuts to create stencils is a favourite way to create backgrounds for my scrapbook layouts. This bundle allowed me to do this and then to back some of the die cuts with in colour DSP. Puffy hearts and fussy cut flowers add dimension. If you live in New Zealand and don't have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator already and want the supplies I have used, please visit: https://laramoss.stampinup.net and head to the shop to look for: Sunshine Vibes Bundle Mini Alphabet Dies Florals in Bloom DSP

These may be frozen and heated when required! cheese spread: 1pkt onion soup; 500g tasty cheese - grated; a 400g tin of evaporated milk; Put all ingredients in a saucepan and heat slowly until cheese melts and mixture thickens. Stir well. When cool store in jars in the fridge for sandwhiches etc or put in your cheese rolls! Yep, the Up2Scrap Elite Design team has been announced - soo privileged & excited to be a part of it.
