Hi guys.  Well, I have a little confession to make.  Last week while I was recouping from Stamp-a-thon I prepared a few posts for my blog but had trouble uploading the photos.  I would pop in and out of Wordpress hoping that each time I logged in and out, it would let me upload the pics, and it was extremely frustrating.  In all my drafts and photo confusion, when things finally came good, I left out this post….so my apologies if you’ve been waiting to see the remainder of the 8 projects.  Here they are.

These gorgeous little nugget boxes were designed by Keesh and one of Charmaine’s customers kindly made us 100 little thong soaps to go in.  Aren’t they gorgeous?! 

These were made using the thongs from the Just Beachy set which were also stamped around the edges of the baja box.  Colours used were Baja Breeze, Regal Rose, Not Quite Navy and some of the Walk in the Park DSP.

Keesh also prepared this Flowerpot card, which looks just like a little pot of flowers until you pull them out and it has the greeting on it.  Very cute and super popular at the moment.   Keesh has used the Petal Pizazz stamp set and punched and cut out various sizes of flowers together with the Three for You punch for the small centre flowers with gold brads. 

When the card slides out, it shows the greeting, in this case we used wording from Upsy Daisy.  

This gorgeous little mini bragbook was created by Charmaine and shows off our new Forest Friends stamp set just perfectly.  

Char has used some of the Walk in the Park DSP as well as the square scallop punch and gel pen to accent the pages.  Isn’t this just the cutest!!

Charmaine also designed this groovy spring card.  She’s used Pacific Point, Baja Breeze and Basic Gray and the new Just Beachy set to make this.  I just love how this car has come up on here and am very tempted by this set now!  It’s also a great way to show off your watercolouring skills without being too much of a chore as all the images are relatively small.  This would be great for male and young boy cards!

Last but not least is this simple but ever so cute and effective gift bag.  Keesh & Char worked together on these and have showcased the gorgeous new Parisian Breeze DSP papers, scallop oval punch and the Oval All stamp set.  The ladies on the day just loved these and I can see them all now scrounging through their cupboard for paper shopping bags to cover! 

So there you have it!  I hope you have enjoyed seeing these and I will be back soon with lots more card samples I prepared for Stamp-a-thon whenever I can upload pics again. 

Sorry about the photo sizing etc but after all the hoohah with Wordpress I just couldn’t get back in to fix up the sizes.  Arrrgghh!!

Well I must go now as I’ve just splashed a few samples of paint on my new craft room walls and off to see what they look like dry!  ooh how excitement!
