ABC with our family - altered item

"Images copyright Stampin' Up! 1990-2007"
This little tin holds special memories of our family, also little sayings and funny verses.
Stampin Up has great colours that make it easy to complete altered items.
Here I have used pattern paper from the spring showers series. Ballet Blue and chocolate chip inks and the pure and simple alphabet with 1/2 inch punch.
Would you like to make a tin or maybe create some scrapbooking pages. Contact me kate.olsson@hotmail.com for further details.
I will catch up later have a good night. Kate

Tonight is my second workshop and I am very excited to be heading out to share the hobbie I love and to spend time with girlfriends so we can chat and be creative.

Here is a few samples of what we will see tonight.

contact me if you wish to learn this or any of the other techniques you see displayed here.

After a very busy week, which I think i wouldn't make it through alive!! Just turned 3 son has a cold again and I picked up the stomach bug, thankfully we are finally on the mend.

How was your Mother's Day? Hope you got breakfast in bed or were taken out for Breakfast or lunch.

My darling Husband bought me some Gerberas ( my favourite flower ), Max made a lovely flower gift at preschool and we headed out for breakfast at the coffee shop and lunch with the family so I was very blessed indeed for my Mother's Day.

Here is an example of a card you could use for a thank you or birthday card.
The colours are bright and go well together and I love the use of pastel to colour the final stamped image to add a bit of difference.
