October was the final month for the swap. Juliette had now updated her questionnaire with her favourite DSP and stamp set. Unfortunately for me it’s a DSP I’m not really wrapped in so didn’t have any of it and I don’t have the stamp set and wasn’t intending on purchasing, […]

September was the start of a new catalogue which also meant we’d update our questionnaires with new items on our Wish Lists, our new favourite DSP’s and stamp sets and any other changes. Juliette updated her wish list but didn’t update her dsp and stamp sets so I had to […]
I hadn’t participated in a Secret Sister swap for a while so when our ESAD group decided to run one I thought, why not. The person I had to send to for the 3 months was a fellow sideline, Juliette Chapman. Juliette doesn’t live too far from me so I […]
September was the last month for the Secret Sister Swap so this gift has more Stampin’ Up product than past months. As we’d just had the release of the new IB&C 2011|2012 we had new Designer Series Papers and I chose to use the Timeless Portrait pack. I actually forgot […]
No this post has nothing to do with Love Letters as such but the ‘now retired’ Love Letters DSP and Notably Ornate Stamp Set. This was my July gift to my Secret Sister, Julie Price. I made a box using the Love Letters DSP and some Basic Black cardstock which […]
I was cleaning out some of my old photos yesterday and came across the items I’d made in the last round of Secret Sister for the Stampin’ Up in Oz group. I’d actually thought I had posted some of these but was pretty sure not all of them. After checking […]
I meant to post this last week but I got tied up with a few things. Firstly I took my girls shopping for new clothes on the Wednesday which was the last day of school holidays, took myself on the Thursday so I could actually try things on and also […]
I’m back today to share the cards & gifts I created for my partner for the month of March. Another DSP she listed as a favourite was the Sunny Garden DSP. I hadn’t used this yet and at first found the colours a bit of a challenge. Seeing how this […]
We have almost completed another round of the Secret Sister swap over on Stampin’ Up in Oz and seeing how my partner has now received all of her items from me and knows that it was me, I can share them with you all now. I will spread them over […]
You may have gathered by now that each months items I’d focused on one of the colours she’d listed in her questionnaire so that means this month I got to play with Marina Mist. However for her 1st card I went with using another of the Stamp sets she had […]
Month 2 of the swap I decided to use Rich Razzleberry as my colour theme and some different stamp sets to those listed in my Sisters questionnaire. For Card 1 I went with a colour combination from the new Colour Coach, yet again, and teamed it with the ‘Just Believe’ […]
Now that the reveal has taken place for the 3rd round of Stampin’ Up in Oz’s Secret Sister swap I can share the items I made for my sister with everyone. I will say this round was more of a struggle than past ones. When I received my Sisters questionnaire […]
Well August means the last month and reveal of our Secret Sister swap on Stampin’ Up in Oz. A new round will be starting soon. In this final month we are required to send 2 handmade cards and a gift including Stampin’ Up product to the value of $25. My […]
Here we are at August gifts. This month was the special month with 2 cards and a gift of SU items and remember I said it’s all about the packaging. That’s what I think anyway. Of course you need to meet the minimum requirements but you need to create the […]
Today I’m sharing my July items with you that I made and sent to my Secret Sister partner. For this month I sent my 1st card with the gift. Again I’ve used the Urban Garden DSP and coordinating colours but have used the Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set on my […]
August was the reveal to our Secret Sister for the June – August Stampin’ Up in OZ Secret Sister Swap which means I can now share with you the items I created and sent to my partner. As you may have gathered by the title this post is Part 1 […]
