Merry Monday - Sip Sip Snow Front From Our House to Yours!

Yup that "mad" title sums up my trio of lovely creation swaps I am sharing with you today!

First up this stunning little card using the new Sip Sip Hooray bundle... along with the perfect greeting from Playful Penguins... but sadly no creator's name on the back so I can't tell you who made it... as the training was a while ago...

And then we have Julie Kettlewell's gorgeous From Our House to Yours card... in Pool Party and Poppy Parade...

And finishing off today with this beautiful treat of a Snow Front & Mini Curvy Keepsakes Box treat holder...  and a treat for me tonight too (as I demolish the Roses Caramel sweet treat inside!) Sadly again... no name inside so I can't tell you who the clever one is that created it!

A trio of really fantastic makes... though I wish I could share the names of all the creators (so if it is you... or you know who... please click here and let me know...)  and thanks again for swapping with me...

Beauty & Joy Team Training Swap

So on Saturday I spent a lovely Quarterly Team Training day along with fellow Jems and as a first, fellow Passionettes too... as Julie Kettlewell and Monica Gale combined their training days to great effect...

It was really lovely to be able to meet and finally put faces to so many of the Passionettes whose names I recognise from the Team page...

And where there are demonstrators... of course there are swaps... so I made about 30 of these... which I swapped out and came back with about 25 other ideas and samples... featuring many sets I don't (yet!) possess...

So this card is a coppery Beauty & Joy treat for you...

As I wanted to showcase the new Delicata ink pad(s) ... available in Copper, Gold & Silver... and brilliant! A stunning metallic sheen and dry very quickly too! I will be buying all 3...

And the new Star Designer Elements

Clean, simple...but perfectly formed!

On Stage UK Card Swaps Part 2 - The Greeny Blues....

More gorgeous swaps for you today... and I don't think anyone who follows this blog will be surprised that I came away with more "blues" than any other colour scheme... so much so that I have split the blues into 2 sets/posts!!

Stunning Dandelion Wishes card by Linda Kasparian...

Love this one! And an admittance ... as I had seen this card posted somewhere on social media a week or two before... and said WOW at the time!...  In fact I may have even commented (which admittedly is rare for me)... So I gleefully swapped and received this one!! I couldn't contain my excitement!! It was a funny moment... Though I am sure I wasn't the only one...

Beautiful Varied Vases card by Pauline Powling

Stunning Waterfront card by the fabulous Barry & Jay...

Lovely Handwritten & Pop of Petals card by Elizabeth Bennett... who I hope enjoyed here first On Stage!

Sensational Swirly Frames & Butterfly Gala card by Jayne Owen... I suddenly feel a need for the Swirly Frames (fingers crossed they carry over!) And oh yes... so they do!!

And lovely Incredible Like You & Cute Crew notecard by Carol Clark...

Which reminds me... that there is a "problem" with these swaps... as suddenly you spot a must have product that had not caught your eye before... and so it can become costly... unless you have great self restraint!

Monday Mini Madness...in the Pinks...

Some more of my lovely mini 3D Swaps from fellow demonstrators at Telford UK On Stage event for you today... so I bring you the Pinks range...

We have Karen Varley's All My Love Nail File holder

Esther Howard's Oh So Eclectic Triangular Treat Holder...  I salute Esther and all those that can tie that many beautiful bows!!!

Angie Ralph's Happy Tails Tissue Holder...  for all you dog allergy sufferers out there!

And last... but by no means least... Rebecca Willmore's Swirly Bird Tealight Candle Holder... on which the ribbon closure particularly pleases me!!  Both tails just pushed through a loop...so no bow!

Love that so many of these (and my other swaps) use stamp sets that I don't possess... so by swapping I have samples to show my class customers... and you guys too! One of my major reasons for swapping at these events...

Remember to contact me if you would like any further information ... as I can often find the source and so point you in the right direction... or do a quick measure & work out if not! Though I will admit that my feet aren't touching the ground at the moment... So it will be next weekend before I can realistically do much...

And check out these Green & Yellow 3D swaps if you missed them last Friday... as I got my scheduling wrong... Oops! So about 2/3rds of you did miss them!! Sorry!!!

More 3D Swaps

Another beautiful set of inspiring On Stage Telford swaps today... featuring the green and yellows in our life... perfect hues for the Easter holiday.....

So in no particular order... and thank you so much to all these ladies for swapping with me...

Nic Baker's lovely Flowering Desert gift package ... although this is a lovely and special gift rather than a swap!!

And I have to admit that the Champney's hand cream was such a perfect gift Nic... as... you know when you always forget one thing!!!! Or is that just me!

Karen Kilner's Fable Friends gift card holder for Easter... too cute!

And I have to say that Fable Friends definitely had a major place in my swaps and treats received this year... anyone would think it is REALLY popular!!! No wonder it sold out a bit back!

Helen Peck's Reese's Cup Holder & Magnet 

 Featuring Swirly Bird, Eastern Medallions & Butterfly Gala...

AN Other's Happiness Blooms shortbread treat holder (yum!!) And I have to admit to loving these papers more and more as I see more of them... who knew that would happen...

And last but not least... AN Other's Hello Cupcake bookmark...
