I hosted a Stampin Up party for the first time with Nikki Raine - a wonderful demonstrator, and invited just a handful of very lovely and talented ladies including my best matey Julie of Catch me Crafting fame, the super fun Debby (Debby4000) and her equally fun sister Doreen, the amazing Alex (Eisbaerentraeume) and my brilliant neighbours. We were given a great demo by Nikki (and I got to keep the finished article) and then we all made a super pretty card with stash that Nikki had pre-prepared which I won't post here in case Nikki wants to demo the same thing for other groups.
After the party, Julie stayed to play for the rest of the day and I spent the whole time colouring this wonderful Crafts and Me image by Sara Burrier called Celtic Angel which you can find here. This digi Angel actually comes seated on a beautiful corbel but I wanted her to perch on the edge of a sentiment.
