Fire

December 30th, 2009 by Bev

Sorry I have not been stamping because 2 days before Christmas my sister and my nephews homes were both burnt in our Bushfires.  They have not managed to save anything….all their sheds are gone as well.  My sister and niece are both scrapbookers and my sister also a stamper…..nothing left.  My sister also had a huge porcelain doll collection, she had made and dressed all the dolls, had her masters and doctrine in doll making……it is all gone…..very very sad but they are all okay so we are thankful for that.

Christmas Week 7

December 20th, 2009 by Bev

Because I am running late with my 12 weeks I have decided to give you all a little present. This is my first attempt at making a tutorial so I hope you all enjoy it and have a great Christmas. I have made lots of these and have them on my Christmas tree.  They are also great to put into a card as a little gift for a special person.  Have fun with them.

Flower Accent

November 16th, 2009 by Bev

Today I made this card for a challenge with some other Stampin’ Up demonstrators.

I used Kraft and Mellow Moss and very vanilla cardstock.  Bella Blue designer paper and taffeta kraft ribbon. The lace border punch….I just love this punch. It is so elegant and punches out on card really well, if you would like to order one of these punches just email me at bevmantle@bigpond.com
