One thing....

... leads onto another..
Hi Folks... I said in a couple of posts ago that I was inspired to make Mum's Birthday card by another project I had made using pretty much the same products and colour way...

Well, here is the little blighter that has started my current obsession with Red and Brown as a combination...
Again, it's using the Stamping Gear, but this time, for a change, not one of their stamps!!

The same, but two totally different effects.
Thanks for checking us out.
See you soon.

Happy Birthday Mum...

... Hi folks... See, I said they come thick and fast in our family... It was my Dads Birthday on Sunday, and today we Celebrate Mums...
So, for her card I have used my trusty Stamping Gear and even more trusty Petal Stamp..

It's not a colour way that I would have normally chosen ( Vintage Sepia - VersaFine Ink & Rhubarb Stalk - Memento Ink) but the colours worked so well on another project I have completed (coming soon) that I thought I'd use it on her card, and to great effect I might add..
"Happy Birthday Mum". Hope you enjoy your day.. xxx
Thanks for checking us out.
See you soon.

Shaving Foam Flower...

Hi Folks.. Well, here we are with yet another Bank Holiday.. I hope you are going to be able to make the most of the weather today, cos it's not going to last here in the SE!!
Work for me today!!, but I'll be making sure I get out and catch a few rays when I take Hollister for her walk's!! So, although I'll be stuck inside for most of the day, I might as well enjoy myself...

Today, I will mostly be playing with.... Shaving Foam me thinks!!
Have a great day. See you soon.
Andy..

"Time" for a demo me thinks!

Hi folks.. Just finishing off a little bit of prep for this Saturday's (23rd February 2013, 9am - 3pm) FREE Stamping Gear Demo.. Now, this little darling took some working out, as it was not actually created using the Stamping Gear as such, but the principle behind it! Confused? Yah, me too!! If you are able to pop along on Saturday, I'll explain all! And don't forget, its Double Discount Day to all Pinnacle Crafts Club Members on the day! That's a 20% saving folks (usual exceptions apply).. See you there.. Andy.

Pinch Punch, first day of the Month...

Hi Everyone. Well, it's the 1st of February..! Where did January go? Seeing as it is now February, is it too early to start thinking of Christmas? Not if you are a crafter!! The more we do now, the less we have to do later in the year! Takes the pressure off a bit me thinks!!

Here's my first one for this year’s crimbo. Only thing is, starting this early, I bet I forget where I put them come December!! Ho hum! Have a great day and thanks for checking us out. See you soon. Andy..

Stamping Gear..

Hi folks.. Now, you know I love my Stamping Gear. So much so that I want to share it with as many people who will listen to me. And going by the quantity we went through last weekend, that is quite a few of you. So here's a heads up for those who aren't yet aware. We have our very own Stamping Gear Demonstration Day here at Pinnacle Crafts on Saturday 23rd February 2013. There's no need to book, just turn up any time between 9am - 3pm and see what all the fuss is about. As Inkadinkado, (great name) the makers of the Stamping Gear would say, “Going in Circles (or Ovals, and eventually Squares and Rectangles!) has never been so much fun!”

Just love the results you can achieve on your card making, scrapbooking and general paper crafting projects. So pop the date in your diary.. Thanks for checking us out. See you soon. Andy.

Have a tail wagging time....

Hi folks. So, I said in my last post that "I" had, at last, finished my cards for this year and that someone else wanted to share the cards they were sending!! And who do you think that someone was?? Holly of course!! And she's pretty good at it too! Must run in the family or something!!

Her eye for colour (although she can only see in Black and White apparently!) is amazing for a puppy of her age; she has gone with a Tan and White

and Black and White combination to match her own colouring!

And while she wasn't looking, I copied her design and made one for her also! Thanks for checking us out. See you soon. Andy.
