Sending Love & Hugs

Hello, and welcome!
Aren’t the colours of spring so pretty?  Where I live, at this time of year, the daffodils are in full bloom and the grass is just starting to grow, and I’m definitely being inspired by the shades of yellow and fresh green that seem to be everywhere I look! 



Today’s card features those pretty colours.  It should have been an easy project, but somehow or other it didn’t quite go to plan.  If you want to see what happened, here’s the video.



I’m going to miss Lemon Lime Twist, which is one of the retiring In Colours.  I didn’t think I’d use much of it when I first saw it, but it grew on me and I’ve been using it quite a bit recently.  (If it’s one of your favourites – or if you love Berry Burst, Fresh Fig, Tranquil Tide or Powder Pink, the other retiring In Colours – don’t forget that they will be leaving us at the end of May - or earlier if they sell out). 

While I’m sad to see them go, I’m also very excited to find out what’s going to replace them.  One of the advantages of being a demonstrator is that you get to know about the new stuff before everyone else - which is fab!

OK, so the sun is shining and I'm off to enjoy some time out of doors.

See you again soon!

Keep Crafting,

Keren

Elegant Gift Wallet

Happy Saturday!
I hope you’re having a good day.  Today I’m sharing a simple but elegant way of presenting a gift certificate.  I needed some way of making a rather boring envelope look like an interesting wedding present, and this is what I came up with –


To get the printed message onto the card, I used a product that’s no longer manufactured.  However, alternatives are available (see below!) so I don’t feel too bad about teasing you!

Are you excited about the new Stampin’ Up! Catalogue yet?  I just got my real-world copy (up till then I’d been making do with an online version – not the same thing at all!) and I the copies for my customers are on the way!  If you’ve shopped with me in the past year, you can expect a copy in the post soon.  If not, get in touch with your demonstrator. (If you don’t have a demonstrator and would like a copy, email me  - keren@tuppencecoloured.co.uk.  I can send you a copy as long as you’re in the UK, France, Germany, Austria or the Netherlands)

That's all for today folks!

Crafty hugs,

Keren

Vintage Love

Hello bloggists, and welcome.

I'm a big lover of vintage and distressed.  And I enjoy playing and getting inky.   I really enjoyed putting this card together.

Here's how it went together -
No "helper" this time - but I'm sure she'll be back!  Thank you for all the lovely comments on Youtube - although she's enough of a diva already, she doesn't need to be told how cute she is!

Sale-A-Bration Saturday!

Hello bloggists, and welcome.
Well, it’s back to the day job for me.  The good news is that the Spring/Summer catalogue is now open for business and so is the Sale-A-Bration catalogue.

If you were trying to get onto the SU website on launch day you might have spotted that there were some technical problems and it was quite late in the day before they were sorted.  It was a bit fraught for a while, but it all came right in the end. 
So – have you got your copy yet?  If not, contact your demonstrator (and if you haven’t got one, get in touch with me).  You can get a digital version by clicking the pictures of the catalogues at the bottom of this blog.

Anyway, every Saturday until the end of March, I’ll be featuring one of the products from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue and today I’ve started with the Pretty Pockets.

Quick video today –

These are really useful to have around!  These are one of the option you can choose for FREE with every £45 you spend (before P & P) with SU between now and 31 March, but if they aren’t your cup of tea there are lots of other things you could pick. 



See you soon,

Crafty Hugs,

Twin Hearts

Hello bloggists, and welcome.

Did you all have a fab festive season?  I do hope so, and that Santa brought you some lovely crafty goodies to play with.  Me, I'm saving my Christmas Present money for the new catalogue and for Sale-A-Bration.  You've probably already seen projects using the new items that are coming soon (very  soon...) and I've got some that I'll be showing you soon.

Today, though, I thought I'd take a look at my supplies and make something using items I've had for a while but not really done much with, and because I'd just been playing with envelope paper it was at the top of my mind, so to speak.  Here's what I did - 

I really like these colours together.  Not your usual Valentine colourway, but I think it works.  How about you?

See you again soon,

Crafty Hugs,

Keren

PS Don't forget to show me pictures of what you've been making on my Facebook page - I really want to see them!
