Ewan's Photo's



Good Morning All,
Sometimes my husband shocks me with how fantastic he really is! Not only was last nights dinner a fab homemade quiche of Goats Cheese, Sweet Potato and red onion, the best quiche I've ever tasted but as I was flicking through uploaded photos on our home PC, I came across these beauties.

Now as many of you know Ewan is into lots of sports and mountain biking is one of them. If he is off during the week he will take himself off to somewhere nice for the day.
Anyway these are some where in Yorkshire. The area looks amazing and so, so beautiful. I didn't realise that he snapped these on his "phone" omg!!!

Hope that you enjoy then as much as I do...... (more photos to follow my computer is not letting me upload anymore!!)

Take Care,

Sunday, Sunday............

Good Morning Bloggers!
Hope that you are all having a lovely weekend?
Yesterday was a great day, I was demonstrating MS Punches and Hero Arts Stamps at Grosvenor House papers in Kendal on behalf of Personal Impressions.

It was so lovely to see so many familiar faces, and thank you to every one who came and said hello! Janet who is the owner and all her staff were fab, all the demonstrators were really well looked after, lots of tea, fruit and a great lunch, however I did manage to resist the Delicious looking home made cake!

Here are a couple of cards I designed for a magazine article which couldn't be published because they wouldn't photograph well due to the acetate.
So instead I'm gonna use them in next weeks class at Card Craft Plus in Preston!
Anyway all my cleaning up is done and now I'm off to the gym.
Enjoy you Sunday,
Sarah xx

Dates, Dates and more Dates......

Good morning bloggers,


Sorry it's been a while since I last posted, its been crazy busy. Workshops, Demonstrations and Magazine work are all taking up most of my free time!

I have a demonstration this Saturday at Grosvenor House Papers in Kendal on behalf of Personal Impressions, It's a great big event with lots of demonstrations and other fun things going on! I'll be working with New designs from Martha Stewart and Hero Arts. Hope you could pop along.
In this months Making Cards Magazine I have an article I designed many months back using you guessed it Hero Arts Stamps!!! I dabbled a little bit with the Copic markers too, however I am no expert with them, I really should book myself onto a class to lean how to use them properly!

Today is a special day for me too, it's mine and Ewan's 3rd Wedding Anniversary, he is just the most special person in the world, my rock with everything we are about to embark on over the next few months I know he will be right by my side every step of the way!
Anyway check out the Workshops and Demonstrations column at the side for all my up coming events.
Take Care,
Sarah xx
