Well you would think it was looking at all the lovely entries being linked in on our Challenge page which you will find HERE. Have a look at the thumbnails and then go and check out the participants blogs for a wealth of further crafting inspiration. However it is still cold and grim here in the North East of the UK - so I'm surrounding myself with tulips and daffodils in vases and pots, because I just love them, and at least it means it looks very spring like inside my home!!
I have some rather lovely items to blog tonight, and whilst on the subject of warmer weather I have a couple of seaside projects to display to get us going. The first is by DANIELE and is a gloriously colourful 'on the beach card', and I love it!
Daniele has used a couple of sheets from our Seaside Background Book, plus a clever use of stamp CI-302, and an image from Nostalgia Glossy Sheet 2 to assemble this pretty project.
The second seaside themed project is by lovely Di of Tando fame, who demoed a couple of projects recently at The Craft Barn, using our stamps and Tando Mini Stages - which we have for sale in our Must Have Section, along with lots of other good stuff! Take a look at the Tando Blog for lots more Tando type projects.
Loving this - using our elements stamp CI-272! Di also demoed the tall stage featured below:
Great colour schemes in these projects, and CI-332 used to great effect in this one.
Incidentally I am running a class at the Craft Barn in June, and also demoing at this their 2012 Extravaganza, which will be great fun as always I'm sure. And the whole weekend Extravaganza is well worth a trip to leafy Surrey. You will find info about the weekend on their website HERE - it would be great to meet you there!
I have recently been mooching around a great blog by Lee of CRAFTY LOOPS - you must have a look at her great flower making tutorials, and I also adore the Stick Pins she makes so beautifully. Well Lee also decorated a compartment tray using CI products which I am featuring below:
Lots of details in there Lee!
Finally I want to show you a few items by Lynne of ADORN which are just fabulous. I am just so taken with the card below - don't you just looove our new king!
With a couple of close-ups -
And another patriotic card in a similar style:
Wow!
Its Valentine's Day tomorrow and if you would like the chance to win a set of CI hearts (pictured below) - then leave a comment please and you might just be picked to be the lucky recipient of one of the three sets we have to giveaway!!
With a set of these you could be creating gorgeous cards like the one below, again by Lynne of Adorn.
