WOW embossing powder and a simple triangle punch!! Distress ink technique, using water to remove the ink (as originally shown by Lindsay mason) Using the Bazzill Half the Edge strips - gives it dimension and interest This one was inspired by Barb, I've used my Butterfly Kisses Stamps, and it was only cause Barb told me that you could make a tree from the little "twig" and I was like, "so you can"!!! Ta - Da !!! This one was designed by Jayne and Polly at Alley pally, so simple all you need is a scalloped circle punch...way to go girls!!!

Yes we caught two lovely ladies (sharing our accommodation) doing just that as we got back last night, and most off it was from Sugar and Spice TOOT TOOT !!!! We had a lovely day at the show yesterday, it's got to be one of the friendliest places ive ever been to. If your up this way (leamington spa) you must stay at Windmill Hill Farm House, this is truly the BEST B & B we've ever stayed in and Jan is marvellous !!! Then we've been eating at The Stag, oh my what can I say..... YUMMY .... I believe sums it up. Well must get up and shower ready for the next day of the show, BUT not before a very filling breakfast lol !!!!! Marion xxx - Posted using BlogPress from my iPad

Well first of all I just want to say a great BIG THANK YOU to everyone who managed to squeeze (and I mean SQUEEZE) on to our stand at Alley Pally. It was a great show and I couldn't have done it without Polly And Jayne, sorry about your feet girls !!! Were off again tomorrow to Warwickshire for the Artisan show, this time it'll be me and Rick wearing the pinnies !!! So if you're up that way pop on over and say HI !!! Whilst I love doing the shows, I can't wait to get the shop back to normal, it feels so bare. Back soon....carry on creating Marion xxxx
