Where have I been you ask?  No where is the answer.  I have just been distracted by the myriad of things that make up everyday family life!

However, I had to get back into action to let you know that the sales period for the 2019-20 Annual Catalogue has begun.  I have put a link in the sidebar of my blog so that you can download a copy.  Of course, I also have hard copies available.  Just contact me if you would like to get one.

I also still have some photos of swaps from Onstage to share.   I couldn’t believe how great the swaps were or the hospitality of the NZ demonstrators.

This swap was created by one of my sideline friends in Canberra, Frances Searle. We traveled to Auckland together and shared a room.

The Best Catch stamp set and coordinating die set, Catch of the Day are still available in this year’s catalogue.

Frances used brushos for the colour and a window sheet stencil for the background. She stamped the fish onto Copper Foil using black Stazon. Isn’t it gorgeous?

The Tropical Chic Stamp Set and Tropical Dies were also popular choices for swaps. They are also carrying over in the new Annual Catalogue. As you can see, they are a very versatile set.

This little punch art Kiwi card is so cute. It was created by Bronwyn Franklin. She has worked wonders with the scalloped circle from the Layering Circles Dies.

This lovely treat package had a label, but no name. It was created with the Envelope Punch Board and used greetings from the Butterfly Gala Stamp set.
