We have so much fun and it is great to spend time with and interact with other people who really understand the "passion for paper and card". There are a few surprises and prizes along the way too :)

It's all about sharing our passion for Stampin' Up! products, so if you love stamping or Stampin' Up!, then what are you waiting for?

If you don't have many SU products or prefer other brands (although I find this hard to imagine! lol) then all of the projects can be adapted with the craft supplies you already own.

SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, COME AND STAMP WITH US :)

Can't wait for you to join us!

Stamp With Us - Challenge card

It was colour challenge over at the Stamp With Us blog this weekend and this was our Inspiration - so I took it quite literally and produced the following card:

Very simple and all using punches - Round Tab, Large Oval and Word Window with a bit of Marker Pen for the frame.

Aren't I doing well at updating this :)?

The boys have an INSET day tomorrow but I'm back to work.  It's not too bad though as I have Tuesdays off, so only one day back and then another day off - woo hoo!

I've got lots and lots planned over the coming month (/s!) and will keep you informed on what is going on.

Have fun!

Can't get to a Class - Why not get a Kit By Mail?

You can see details of January's Kits By Mail and buy them using the buttons on the right hand side here or visiting my website - www.natalieoshea.co.uk.

Both of these classes are being run in person in Crawley, so if you want a fun night out and love these classes, then join us too.  More details of all classes at www.natalieoshea.co.uk.

Come and join the fun!

Happy New Year!

Well, I mentioned that I was taking part in a Sale-A-Bration Swap and here is the card that I made for the swap.  It was a card that was influenced by one that I saw on SCS with a few extra twists from me. Bear in mind that it was in cellophane before I remembered to take a photo so that is what the sheen is!

I think I am Mrs Geometric Contemporary card maker through and through.  I've used the Nouveau Chic Papers together with Basic Grey, Sage Shadow and Very Vanilla cardstock.  The Stamp Set is the SAB Vintage Labels and I love how that gorgeous frame fits perfectly into the scallop circle punch - yum!

I hope you all had a great New Year's Eve - ours turned into a Wii Fit challenge competition between my husband, my brother and my Mum.  To say that it's funny watching your mum try to do some Step and your brother trying to Hula Hoop is an understatement LOL!

Thankfully, I don't have a hangover this morning and we have blue skies and sunshine here and I hope that is how the year is going to continue.

All in all the last decade has been pretty rotten to us as a family, so I am really hoping that the next decade makes up for it. Cheers!

Speak soon and Have Fun!
