July - Once Upon A Time

Good morning everyone 

Welcome to July 

and a new Lavinia Challenge 

Our new theme is 

Once Upon A Time 

We have so many stamps , stencils etc that could be used for your design 

Remember the winner is chosen at random and wins a £40 voucher to spend at Lavinia stamps. 

All the details are on the website 

Here is some inspiration.

My first thought was a story book 

and you know how much I love this stamp 

I started with some stamping and I masked the ink pot 

More stamping 

Some stencil work 

Some colour 

and those finishing touches

I can’t wait to see all your fabulous designs 

Have a lovely day and I will pop back later with our 

Tuesday catch up video 

Take care all 

Much love and hugs

Always lovely to spend the day with Lisa , James and Kate. 

This week I have been teaching Lavinia workshops at 

Country View Crafts…

Such an amazing shop..

Owned by the lovely Susan , 

Full of goodies and in such a beautiful setting too 

Please check out the online shop 

Also there is a monthly challenge…

It would be great if you could join in 

Today , it is Saturday , 

A day off 

I am sat outside our camper van , in a beautiful campsite.  

Eric is enjoying the shade and Karl is chilling in the sunshine. 

I’m just about to make us a cheeky brew and we have biscuits too 

Enjoy your weekend all

Time to Chill

Hi everyone, 

Thanks so much for popping in 

I am so sorry I have been absent for a while but I needed a little break 

Ok

A holiday 

We are currently in Crete

I am catching up with you, by the pool, 

Cheeky brew on the table (no biscuit , I need to be good ) 

Time to just relax 

I have a very busy few months ahead…so I just need to recharge my batteries. 

Last Saturday it was my 

Sharing the Love of Lavinia workshop at the Dreamatorium

Such a wonderful day 

Lovely to meet Lorraine, over from Australia 

I always get spoilt, chocolates, hand cream , a journal and beautiful flowers. 

I am so blessed to be able to do what I do. 

Many people have asked after Amanda leaving  what is going on.

Crafting  like any other business is one where there are choices…

I am happy and totally committed to Tracey and Lavinia stamps and will continue to promote them online, 

in workshop, and in YouTube’s. 

As I get older though I may just need more breaks and some more family time. 

I sure you all understand

I have a lovey crafty catch up to share with you using Alcohol inks.

You can join me here .
