1.    Trim a piece of Lost Lagoon Cardstock to 14.8x 10.5 cms
2.  Trim a piece of Whisper White Cardstock to 14.4 x 10.1 cms
3. Using the aged edge stamp from the Timeless Textures Stamp Set & Sahara Sand Classic Ink Pad, Stamp a border around all 4 edges of the cardstock, stamping off the page slightly
4.  Using the flourish stamp and Lost Lagoon Classic Ink Pad, stamp all four corners without re-inking the stamp (1st to 4th generation stamping technique)
5.  Sponge the edges of the cardstock using a wedge of Stampin Sponge and Lost Lagoon Ink. This will intensify the frayed edges appearance
6.  Trim a piece of Pool Party Glitter Ribbon to slightly longer than the width of the cardstock; run a strip of tear & Tape adhesive along one side, and attach to the card front, approximately a third of the way up the cardstock, wrapping the excess ribbon around the back of the card.
7.  Using Tombow Adhesive, attach a Congratulations Expressions Natural Element  above the ribbon.
8.  Finish by typing or writing your Date/Time/Place details onto Whisper White Carstock measuring 14.4 x 10.1 cms & adhere to the back of the invitation

Stampin Up Christmas Single Stamps

Single Stamps -- New Christmas Collection!

A new, Christmas-themed collection of single stamps is now available! The festive season will be here before you know it, and these Christmas-themed single stamps may be just what the budget-conscious stamper needs. There are eight different stamps to choose from, six of which coordinate with Framelits dies or punches. 
Details
  • These stamps are available on any customer order , or online.
  • These stamps won’t be sent in our typical cases or packaging; they’ll be packaged in cello bags. If you’d like a case for your stamp, you can buy our Clear-Mount Stamp Cases that come in packs of four (item 119105).
  • This offer is available for clear-mount stamps only.
    The stamps won’t come with a Clear-Mount Block, and you’ll need to buy a block separately if you don’t already have one. The recommended block sizes can be found on the flyer.
  • There’s no limit on how many pieces you can buy.
  • These Christmas-themed stamps are only available through 31 January, 2014, so get them while you can!

Countdown to Christmas

So much news to share ….

 Firstly, you will be pleased to know that the upgrade of the workshop is now complete. We have re-organised the space, added some additional storage, and sorted through all shelving to declutter. Most importantly, the old raised platform on the floor is now gone which we hope will improve your experience when with us. The Gaz heater has been checked and in working order ready for the winter weather to ensure we all stay warm and toasty during classes.

The workroom has been labelled so you can easily find what you are looking for during classes. But let us know if you feel we could improve your crafting experience as we want you to have an enjoyable and relaxing time at The Warren.

We have lots of new and nearly new supplies, stamps, ink pads, tools and more for sale, so get in quick as we are taking much of it to Thaxted Craft Fair Saturday 19th October. Come and join us for a great day and pick up some crafting bargains to boot. 

Our new season Christmas and Halloween cards will be on sale too.

MDS Merry Little Christmas Card
Did you know that you can get one months free trail download of My Digital Studio? Well you can. If you are wondering what role an electronic card and scrapbooking digital programme has in today’s world? Well the answer is lots! I use it for most of my class preparations, none of the digital stamps are retired, and you can resize your stamps, punches etc to the size for your project, which you cannot do with the real thing! If I still haven’t sold it, then book a taster session with us, and download the programme on a free 30 day trial basis just before your leson, and you can bring along your tablet or laptop and play with me in real time … I am even considering running ‘virtual’ MDS workshops in the new year so you do not have to come to me, but we communicate via the internet instead! You can read more about MDS at the My Digital Studio Website

Our new stamp clubs run on a monthly basis and require a commitment from you to place a minimum order from the current Annual or Seasonal Stampin Up catalogue each month. The amount you commit to depends on the amount of months you wish to commit to.

memory keeper & memory Maker 

scrapin classes

These classes are very close to our hearts. They are aimed at helping to create or keep memories through scrapbooking when life gets tough. The Memory Maker classes are aimed at individuals living with life limiting conditions to make memories, creating a lasting legacy for their family and friends, and for themselves when the going gets extra tough.

Memory Keeper scrapbookin classes are aimed at the bereaved, allowing individuals to keep the memories of their loved ones alive through scrapbooks. It is a therapeutic, if emotional way, of documenting the life of their loved one. Our quiet semi-rural surroundings allow you to work at your own pace, and if needed, take time out, in a supportive environment. These sessions are run on an ad hoc basis to try and fit in around treatments, appointments, lethargy, etc. We are happy to work with small family/friend groups (up to 6 people), or on a one to one basis. £10 per session. If you are experiencing financial hardship, please talk to us to see if we can subsidise your sessions.

x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-xx

and on to 2014 ….

From January 2014, we are offering 5 x 4 hour cardcraft/scrapbooking sessions weekly. Additional sessions can be arranged on an ad hoc basis.
We can also run Kids Classes on:

  • ·         Card making
  • ·         Scrapbooking
  • ·         Gift boxes
We also enjoy supporting teenagers studying textiles options at secondary school

Scrapbooking

Introduction to Scrapbooking Workshop 29 March 2013

 
The first in a course of scrapbooking workshops for newcomers to the pastime.
A great fun evening was had with lots of group participation in the various skills demonstrated
Lots of Easter Cake and biscuits too!
 
 
The conservatory set up ready to rock and roll
 
 
and of course I had to have some of my cards on show, to help demonstrate how different colour combinations can work well together. I also made some goodie bags for the guests containing mini creme eggs since it was Good Friday - except the crafters left without taking them. I'll pass them on with their orders
 
 
We spent time talking about what scrapbook is, and how personal it is, by capturing moments in time using a combination of photos or other memorobilia, journalling (either hand written or with the use of rubber stamps), and beautiful papers and embellishments. The other important discussion was about what tools and kit is essential if you want to do scrapbooking as a hobby.
 
 
I had a couple of Stamping Ups scrapbook folders for people to look at. the ring binder 8" comes in 2 neutral colours. The 12" post folder comes in red and navy with limited stocks.
 
 
The demonstration included choosing colour combinations to fit with your theme and photograph colours, demystifying rubber stamping and using the Big Shot Die Cutting machine to make frames and embellishments (we made rossettes and paper roses), which adhesives are used for different uses, and of course the use of Stampin Up!'s amazing punches.
 
 
Then we just HAD to stop for apple pies, biscuits and coffee - and out of nowhere came a Flake Chocolate Cake .... yum!
 
 
Then it was the guests turn to be creative with support from myself (I'm the one in the striped jumper on the right) - do not say a word!
 
 
It is harder than you think, to take your precious memories and then wanting to do them proud. But everyone became brave and even had some cutting up of photographs to make the page say what they wanted. One gem was finding a grocery list written on the back of a photo in their Mums handwriting ... how special
 
 
And another page was made to celebrate the birth and childhood of her first baby daughter! A Goth from the start!!
 
Everyone went away with their page, including a page protector, but not before the orders were taken
 
 
A productive evening with everyone eager to return in 2 weeks to continue. Next time - embossing!
