The reason why I have been awol

is because Ive been busy creating! yep I got the pleasure of doing the promo items and photo shoot for my teams ad in the next Up2Scrap issue..only the deadline was put way forward. It was just as well I had done two of the items I was planning! I cant show you the promo but here is a sneak peek of my Christmas Cracker. My Christmas workshop is nearly full but Im sure I can squeeze in a few extras. My Christmas workshop is in November and is $30 for my Christmas cracker (you get to keep my template), a bag in box and 3 gift tags. Contact me on cramfamily@farmside.co.nz  for more detail.

Ive also submitted to the Up2scrap  Elite Team call but you will have to wait until November to  see all of  my submissions!!

So the other reason  Ive been awol was because of the Whakatane Business and Leisure Show held recently. Heres me in my stand.  i had a fun  3 days of  make n takes and  gas bagging to  people.  Its amazing how many people  i know really! lol Anyway, thanks to all who stopped by my stand and thanks to Jenn M and Dianna for giving me a hand. My DD and her friend also helped all weekend on the door prize clipboards. They did an excellent job too. The lucky winner was a lady from Opotiki who was rapt to receive $100 worth of goodies!

Just did this quick card

up for my MIL who is turning 70 tomorrow and we are off down to palmy to have a big family get together. The happy ended up a bit wonky but hey she wont mind!  I LOVE these colours together.

Which are Ruby Red, Blue Bayou and Old Olive. This colour scheme is the same as the Simply Sent -Friendly notes on page 13 of the Idea Book and Catalogue.  And talking about simply sent kits..have you seen the promo for The World Card Making Day? (see below post or check out the website) These kits are absolutely stunning! Beautifully packaged up too. If youre booked in to Jenn M and my event you will see how beautiful they are.

gotta go and pack and take the animals to the kennels..
