HUUUUGE News!!!!

I have some really exciting news today that I have been itching to share for the last week, ever since the Papertrey Make and Take day I attended up in Sheffield.  Well, believe it or not Kate and Aimes who run the A Passion for Papertrey challenge blog have asked ME to join their team!!  I know, isn’t that soooo cool?!   Of course I said I would have to think about it……. NOT.  I snapped their hands off, lol!  I have developed such of love of all things Papertrey Ink and through it have made some amazing, brilliant friends – Kate and Aimes being two of them.  If you have never come across Papertrey Ink before then have a look HERE at Nichole Heady’s blog (one of the founders of PTI) .  Follow on to the rest of the Design Team’s blogs and before you know it you’ll be off to the store filling your shopping basket like there’s no tommorrow!!!  Be warned – your home may be at risk if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage or other loan secured on it (because you’ve spent all your money on stamps!!).

There is a new challenge staring later today and so I’ll be back with my first card as an official Passion for Papertrey teamie later.  Just wanted to squeal my news from the rooftops first!!

Passion for Papertrey – AUTUMN challenge.

Thought I would quickly post this wee card I made a few weeks back for the Fall Card swap hosted by Ted over on the Papertrey Ink forum.  I received a lovely Halloween card from my fellow Pixie Jill (Anjillic Creations) and I posted this card to Emily (Sky Nacho) in Wisconsin. 
The current challenge over on Passion for Papertrey is Autum so thought this would fit there too!!

Right – Tuesday is one of those days I can’t wait to be over (2 have piano lessons, 2 have Arts and Crafts club, one has Brownies and the other has Scouts). One of them is actually involved in all three!!  Thank god for friends!

Passion for Papertrey Make and Take Day!

Well, what a fantastic weekend I’ve just had.  I met up with a bunch of fellow Papertrey Ink fans from all over (even Dublin – Anne!!) at a great Make and Take afternoon organised by my gorgeous friends Kate and Aimes of Passion for Papertrey.  It was lovely to catch up with them again the projects they designed for the afternoon were just fabulous.  Look HERE (can’t take a picture as I left mine behind!!).

Here are some lovely piccies of the whole gang – missing you all already gals!
