well i had a fab time at regionals on saturday.

thanks to my table buddies carol and sharon.
thanks to my lunch buddies michelle, kim and kay.
thanks to ellen for hunting me down and finally meeting in real life lol.
thanks to all those creative ladies who swapped and shared with me.
and thanks to any and all babysitters who helped look after katie or distracted ehr from her miserableness lol

now here are some photos of some swaps that caught my eye...

beth (http://www.elisabethstewart.com/) did a demo on the circle scissors and here are some of the ebautiful cards she showed us


here is a template for a very easy pouch-just tie it all up with ribbon at the top



some more cute cards from the board that i liked.

will go and take some photos of some of the swaps i got and will post them up later

cheers ears

punch art for regionals

stampin up regionals is this saturday and these are the swaps i have made.

my hula lady i have to admit is not my idea-i got inspired by this ladyhttp://prettyinky.blogspot.com/2009/05/luau-lady.html.
mine is a bit more basic as i have to make 12 of them lol.
to get the clouds at the back i have used a scallop circle punch and a dauber with some baja breeeze on it.
i also have to admit that i have added some extra bling to them after i took the photo lol and now the sun is sparkley too.

here is my other one. she is a take off from the top one. i am not quite happy with the tail but i am guessing i will just have to buy the 5-petal flower punch to get a better tail...hmmm.
the back ground is done with the so swirly jumbo roller in baja breeze and pacific point

this one is my baby version. the back ground is made from a spot on jumbo roller. the ribbon is white taffeta that i have coloured with pixie pink ink with a blender pen. i have also added a safety pin cos we use cloth nappies here lol
here they all are together. hopefully i will be able to swap them for soem awesome stuff.
