Candle Wraps

After having a couple of weeks without Classes – we kicked the classes off again last night by doing some Candle Wraps. 

I first saw these done by fellow Team Member Jan Radu – as did Kerry another Team Member.  Kerry said to me – how about doing a Candle Wraps class – so we did.

The first one we did was one that I had put together for one of the Un-convention Challenges in May.  The Challenge was to use Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, More Mustard and Rich Razzleberry. 


The next Candle Wrap was inspired by this Card designed by Kerry High.  We did it at our Team Day in January.  I really like it and look at it often – hence why it became my inspiration .

I did two Candle Wraps to inspire the ladies – and then gave them a few colour choices – so they mixed and matched to put their Candle Wraps together.  Here are the one’s I did.

One thing to remember – if you decided to do something like this – is to make sure the Candle Wrap is removed when lighting the Candle…….cause it could be dangerous if it catches on Fire.

Secret Sister Parcel

For the last few months I have been involved in a Secret Sister Group – where we all enter out name – get given a name and send stuff (cards & gifts) to that Person.

So that means I have been receiving some Happy Mail…..it’s so cool.  The round has now finished and so I thought I would show you some of the things I have received from my Secret Sister – Richelle Fletcher.

Look at that Awesome Necklace….cool huh!  And just my colours too.
Richelle sent this awesome Card for my Birthday.

The frame here has not photographed very well….it’s really cool.  Glittery and beautiful.

Thank you Richelle – I love it all.

Card Folder – Un-Convention

A few weeks ago you may have seen a Stamp a Stack I did here on my Blog.  At the time I thought to myself I’ll make a little folder for these to go in – cause I think that would make a nice little gift.  Then I put the Cards & Envelopes in the cupboard and that was that.

Then during Un-Convention – one of the Challenges was to make a Card folder…..perfect – just the project I needed.

So here is the Card folder I did.

Here it is with the cards too – and before I added the Ribbon onto it.

ESAD – SS

Ohhhh another box of Goodies has found its way to my door.  I’m so lucky.

Inside was this gorgeous collection of gifts.   My ESAD Secret Sister has made this awesome Necklace, Box, Card & Chocolate Cover using the Fifth Avenue Floral stamps and Urban Garden DSP.  Cool huh??

Don’t you just love this Necklace?  It’s so cool and colors that I love too.  Thank you very much SS.

PS….

I forgot to put this photo in…..Here we are munching.

There is much excitement in my house!

Ohhhh arrggghhh!! There has been a buzz around here…..it all started when I heard something at the front door and went out to find a big box addressed to ME!!!

I picked it up and raced inside….I instandly knew it was from my Secret Sister – Julia Miller. Ohhh Ohhh I could not wait to get it open!!

 

The box was filled with lots of lovely hand-made goodies for me – and a HUGE bag of Chippies too. Thank you so much Julia. I love it all.

Here are some pics of them.
* A cute card

* A lovely little box of ribbons – it has a see through window in the front and is covered in hearts.

* A cool flower pot shaped packet with flower mix inside.

* A fabulous mini album – which I will have to CASE cause it is so neat.

* And a wonderful circular container with Hodge Podge inside.

Thank you Julia.
