We had a wonderful day on Saturday and we appreciate all the customers who booked classes and came down to support us. We would like to thank Jenny Reid and our Tracy for making delicious cakes which all donations went to charity. We would also thank everyone who purchase raffle tickets. We raised £17.90 for the cakes & £54.00 on the raffle! All the donations are going to St. Cathrine's Hospice.

March Scrapclub - Wedding Page

Better late than never! Here are some photos and our page that we made in this month's Scrapclub. We have gone for a slightly vintage theme by using some wonderful Kairsercraft papers, Cream and black Bazzill Bling, Black and Cream Bazzill flowers, Anita's black sheer ribbon and some great large Raven Black brads from Bazzill. The brackets and arrow are stamps from a Sandylion set called 'Punctuation' by Kelly Panacci, a set I can't seem to stop using. The L O V E was cut from the QK 'Storybook' alphabet, the label is a QK Revolution 'Label'. As you can see from the photos, a good night was had by all and yes, all the chocolate fingers were eaten by the end of the evening. Next month, we will be playing with the 'Bind-it-All machine, making some mini albums in spring colours. Heidi xxx

Birthday Card Class at Crafts U Love

Here are the cards we made at my card class last night. We used the new QK Revolution Cupcake Die, Bo Bunny 'Sweetie Pie' range of papers, 'Blank Cheque' Bazzill Bling and Doodlebug 'Cupcake' Sugarcoated cardstock. Labels 1 Nestibilities were used to cut out the frames and a Papermania 'Happy Birthday' sentiments stamp. Finished off with some Kaiser pink pearls. We cut out the cherry's using some scraps of pink Bazzill bling. A big thanks to all of ladies that came, we had a right laugh! Hugs Heidi xxx

Mothers Day

I had a lovely Mothers Day yesterday when Geoff (my partner) took the 3 kids out to Tesco's for breakfast and shopping. It gave me about 2 hours all to myself making cards, which was bliss. So here are my cards. The Mother's Day one was an idea taken from a Hero Arts class kit and adapted slightly. The 'You Are Special' Stamp is from Scroll Frame & Message Set and the papers are from the new Magenta paper range. Embellishments include Kaiser Flowers & Gems, Lace & Hero Art Pearl Gems.

Here are the baby cards I made with the Sandylion Foam Stickers which are now in the sale and the papers are from the Love & Friends 6" x 6" Smirk paper pad. I love these Kaiser Seal Stamps which say " 100% Original" which I think are ideal for baby cards. I have also used the Threading Water Punch & Scallop Circle Punch.

Red Nose Day with Crafts U Love!

We had a fantastic day yesterday raising some money in aid of Red Nose Day. We all dressed up and Tracy made some yummy cupcakes and Jenny also brought in some lovely cakes too, both were very delicious! Here are a few photos of us and our customers enjoying tea & cakes. We raised £46.70 on the sales of cakes & a raffle of craft goodies. The winner of the raffle was Shelia - Well Done!

Fridays Create & Take

We have used the new Quickutz Die this week called 'St. Patricks Day'. It has a beer glass, horseshoe, clover and hat all on one die. Here is a couple of samples using the beer glass & horse shoe. Try using the white Puffy Pens for the froth as it bubbles up and looks great!

Forever Friends Class with Caz

I am a bit late posting these cards as Caz made these in class last Saturday. Caz used the gorgeous Forever Friends stamps to create some beautiful cards.
