New ideas from Debbie and Wendy

I asked Debbie and Wendy if they would like to make some samples for me, I had no idea they would make so many..... wow!!  They were brilliant and illustrate how versatile the Peel offs are, just use your imagination and your own style.Thank you both so much for all your hard work!!
And they said they would make some more, so I will share their ideas later with you .  Here are their lovely designs made from a combination of the Bee set and Fairies and Friends set....
The first 4 are Debbies....

 

   
The next are made by Wendy.....

  
We will be at the Sincerely Yours show at Thetford on 1st April, hope to see you then,,,,!

Monday at Japonica

What a lovely sunny day it was for Japonica's day down in Devon.  Met some lovely ladies... here are some of them showing their cards that they made from the Faries & Friends set with me.

They were a really friendly bunch and thanks for a lovely day.
And it was good to meet Janet and to see Francoise Read.

Busy weekend at Leigh

We had a busy weekend at Leigh and it was great to see so many new customers!!
In fact Vicky came back on the Sunday to show us the card she had made on Saturday evening using the Bee Peel off set.
As you can see it is a lovely card, well done Vicky.......its always good to get feedback from our customers.

Next stop Thetford on 1st April, do come and say hello if you are in the area.

As promised here are some more card design ideas using the Bee set

The small flowers are available by the metre from the Craft Barn, Lingfield

Hopefully you can see the shapes I have used to create these designs.
The vase is the large Bees body with the top cut off.

Here is another idea, this time using the "waste" from the flowers in the Bee set, code U and the lines from sheet no. 1103. Also the "waste" from the letters, sheet no. 1104. I have just added pearls to the centre of the flowers. Just use your imagination to make lots of different words, for example you can make a very quick thank you card just using the word Thanks.

The next card is made using the new Bee stamp set.
This time I have stamped out the shapes and used them on the reverse to create a softer effect, this looks really nice if you use some glitter glue.

The Flower is made using heart shapes, code Z, so is the leaf and the lady bugs are made using the small oval, code M. I have used black pearls for the lady bugs heads and centre of the flower.
The edges of the card are chalked and red pearls for the corners.

More ideas to follow.....

Bee Happy!!

............. so we all need the snow to clear!!

This Fairy card with all the instructions is in the new booklet, as is the Moo Cow card, see below.
Please note there is no alphabet sheet in Set no. 3, I have used the alphabet and wording for these cards from the Bee set.
But the good news is you get 5 sheets of shapes in this set.

This Card can also be made using the new peel offs from Set 3, ideal Birthday or Easter card.
This shows you what you can create using this versatile set and your imagination.

New Stamp Set!!

The Helidot New stamp set will be available to purchase from the web shop from the first week of February.
It is called Bees and Bugs and it using exactly the same shapes as the Creative Peel off set (Bees) , so it can be used in conjunction with the Creative step by step booklet, which is currently available from my web shop.
As you can see there is no alphabet or wording included, but is available in the Peel off set.

This means you will be able to create all the cards which are currently in the booklet plus lots more, just use your imagination!!! Have lots of fun crafting!
I will be demonstrating the stamp set at the Craft Barn on 4th February, so hope to see you there when I will give you lots more ideas.
These are two new cards which have been made using the set or you can make them with Peel offs.

I have nearly finished the third Peel off set and will be able to show some examples later this week.
Its very versatile and I have had good feedback from friends who have seen the samples!!
Can`t wait to share it with you...hopefully it should be completed by the end of February.

Bee Happy....!

Just a little Bee to keep you going, very easy to make, although his legs are the antlers (AD and AE) and his shoes are the large lights (D) from the Seasonal set.

The caterpillar is so easy to make just use the large bee head (B) and the inner head (C) from the Bee set

I would like to wish you all a very Happy Christmas and New Year, and thank you for your custom and support during 2011.

Bee Happy
