HI HO !!!

It's off to Brum we go....
at that point you need to be whistling like the seven dwarfs !!!
Yep, on Saturday we're off to Birmingham for the UK trade show. Now I know it's not quiet LA, but it'll be a lot cheaper !!!
Saturday afternoon we're doing a class with the lovely Tim Holtz (and yes he is a really lovely guy) then Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, we're buying, meeting lovely people, buying, meeting more lovely people, crafting, buying a bit more and then hey ho, while we're there we may as well meet up with more lovely people, it's probably going to be one of the busiest shows we've ever done, we have so many "meet ups" it's a little bit crazy.....
I'm back in the shop on wednesday where I'll be teaching Nina's class, then doing the last minute packing as on Thursday morning I'm off to the Make It show in Farnborough until Sunday, I haven't done this one since 2008, so I'm really looking forward to that AND praying that the weather will be kind and that there'll be no WIND!!! For those of you that remember, you'll know what I'm talking about !!
So, things are a wee bit hectic round here, must remember to pack the camera and I'll try and get some piccis posted for you.
Hugs

3 and counting....

We’re at the 3rd trade show.... this year !!!!!!
To say I’m tired is an understatement, but there’s something about the shows plus adrenaline that just keeps you going.
There’s nothing better than teaching people new techniques and that’s what these shows are all about. That and having fun of course !!!
We’re all set up...this is the calm before the storm ;) we have so many new things to show this year, it makes it all the more exciting.
One of the best things about trade show shows is meeting up with buddies in the industry and even though I see Leandra and Mark (PaperArtsy) every week (we quiz together) it was great to go out with them last night.

Richard and Mark look like they’re praying, when in fact they were having a bald off 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Steve has more hair than both of them put together so as a gesture of kindness he hid his. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣  It’s now 6am, I’m ready to jump in the shower and get this day started... think of me standing from 8am to 6pm.... I hope you get to sit a lot m…

One for the Mums ...

In celebration of the fabulous Catherine Pooler Inks about to hit the store, I thought I'd pop a little card on here. Take a folded card base, I always make mine from card stock, then I know the piece on top is going to match perfectly. then cut a smaller piece and perforate the edges, you can use a perforating blade, if your trimmer has one, or there are many dies out there that do this in a snip ! Using the WOW! Embossing Powder Layered Hearts Stamps, I inked up and stamped using the Catherine Pooler Daydream, Aquatini and Skylight Inks.
Embellish with a Uni Ball Signo White Gel Pen, one of my favourites !!!
Finish off with the Mothers day sentiment from the WOW! Embossing Powder Everyday Sentiment Stamps, inked in Versafine Onyx Black, adhere with foam pads. Check out PAPERBOX for a great selection  of card stock. Thanks for looking
