OMG how long is it since I was here last!!!! The Extravaganza went well, we were all kept very busy, particularly the girls in the shop. It was a fantastic weekend and I thoroughly enjoyed it even though I was sooo tired after!! Next one is in September so I have a little time to recover. Sandy is already booking demonstrators and it is looking good!!
I was demoing the lovely Papersoft Color. It is so nice to use and I have now had to buy all the colours and all the stamps. I'm working on collecting all the matching Paper Pens and Gloss Gels now too, lol is there ever going to be any money in my bank account????
I've also been working hard on the Artymiss Website adding products which has kept me very busy for the last few weeks.
At the same time we are having a koi pond built in the garden so there is teas and coffees to be made constantly or cold drinks as the weather has been so hot. The builders are doing a fantastic job and have worked solidly through all this heat. I was worn out just making the drinks!! I'll show you some pics when it is done, the neighbours think we are mad and say it should be a swimming pool not a pond. If the summer was always like this I might agree.
I am going to put some of the cards from the extravaganza on here to show you the lovely colours of the Papersoft Color. Remember all you need is white card.
The first is using a Crafty Individuals stamp for the main image and a little border stamp from the Papersoft Color range. The colours were violet and lilac, probably a little rose in there too. The second card is using cobalt blue and magenta, stamps again from the Papersoft Color range and a peel off. So quick and easy. The little dots are Glossy Gel in Graphite.
See you soon,
