Everything Eleanor

Again I must apologise for my absence lately. We've been away on a little family break and since I got back it's been all go with the launch of the new catalogue and preparations for a Quarterly Team Training Event I held yesterday.

So rather than go backwards on things that I've made and simply haven't had the time to show you, I thought I'd start with the present and give you a taste of 'Everything Eleanor' from the new catalogue. (p.57 Wood -33.95, Clear - £26.95). I love it! I was very lucky to receive it back in June whilst on the Incentive Trip in Prague so I've had to wait a a few months to show you some projects.

This was the afternoon project from yesterdays team training. A card keeper with 4 cards. I've adapted it from a previous project I made here back in January.

Don't you just love the new In Colours? These are Pool Party (my new fave) and Calypso Coral - delish! The new Vintage Brads on the front of the card keeper are stunning too - a' must have' for something a little different.

This set has 4 cards - 2 of each design.

The front of the box and first card features the new Impressions Embossing Frames - Designer Frames. A bargain at £7.95 as you get 2 different ones in the pack -the other being a square frame.

And the new ruffled ribbon...oh my gosh it's beautiful! I've also used the new dotted scallop ribbon border punch on the second card, very cute.

I'm also loving the First Edition Speciality DSP. It's slightly thinner than the usual dsp, just like pages of a book, and it is absolutely fabulous for stamping on. At £11.50 a pack you get 24 sheets (12x12) - a bargain at 48p a sheet!

If you fancy a taster of all the new Designer Papers you might want to try my Paper Share that I have running. I'll put the details up tomorrow along with more photos of yesterdays event and projects.

Would you like the full written instructions of this class for FREE?

For this week only and with any order of £25 or more (plus p&p) you will get a comprehensive pdf file with full colour photos , cutting instructions along with hints and tips sent to you via email of how to.

(offer ends Sunday 16th October)

I really do have so much to share with you of things that are in the pipeline, tutorials and samples and I really appreciate everyone who stops by my blog to see what I've been up to. It may not be as regular as I'd like but I will try my best to keep up. Thank you and hopefully see you tomorrow!

Bye Bye Plane & Simple

Back in July I did a class using the Plane & Simple stamp set. We all find male cards so very hard to do so I was really pleased when this appeared in the Mini Catalogue. Unfortunately it's a set that will no longer be available after 30th September. Such a shame, but if you love it as much as I do get it while you can.

The colours are Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla. Sadly the Jumbo Eyelets and Night of Navy Satin Ribbon has now sold out.

To see the full list of items that will no longer be available after 30th September, click on 'say goodbye' at the top of my right hand sidebar.

Disaster!

I must give a HUGE apology for no updates this week. My computer crashed on Thursday evening and whilst trying to restore, which is was I thought was the right thing to do, I lost all my photos, documents, pdf's and spreadsheets. Absolutely everything disappeard. To say I was in a bit of a state on Friday was an understatement. Anyway my very clever hubby has managed to find them. He wasn't hopefully but they're there..phew! The only problem is there are duplications, up to 8 times now on the hardrive and I've 495,000 photos to sift through one by one, only saving what I need. It's going to be a long drawn out process but the fact that they are still there is such a relief. Of course the moral of the story is to ALWAYS backup. I learnt my lesson the hard way, please, please do what you can to make sure your files are safe.

What I now have to do is get a card reader for my laptop so I can at least take photos to upload here and I've loads to show you too!

Again I'm sorry for the delay with the instructions. They will definately be up this week!

See you soon,

Jo
