Pootles’ Tips – Simply Scored Scoring Tool and Stylus

https://youtu.be/8vvL-jxt4iM

I just found this on my face book page and it is a excellent video on our scoring board so I thought I'd share it with u all.
Personally I also use the bigger end of my stylus but I run it through my hair to give it some lubrication, I guess a hand is a bit better but my way works well too.

I use both my scoring board and my Stampin' Up! trimmer to score depending on what I am doing. Boxes definitely are better with the scoring board and I like to reinforce my scores on both sides of my card stock for a sharper image and a more professional looking box.

I am sitting on my couch feeling miserable after returning home from Mudgee with the flu. Ah so nice to have been given it, think I got it on the plane down there and gave it to my Daughter-in- Law and my grandson. So catching up on demonstrator video's and ideas etc.


Ohh such a gorgeous sneak peak video from Stampin' Up! Cattie live 1/9/17

The wonderful thing about Stampin' Up!® is that you can make it a business that fits with you, your lifestyle and family

This came up on my face book page today and it really is a eye opener to me as i do compare and sadly feel lacking and I shouldn't and nor should you.


Do you find yourself comparing with others that you see as successful and think you need to do the same to have success too?
The wonderful thing about Stampin' Up!® is that you can make it a business that fits with you, your lifestyle and family. Don't to things to please others - do it because you have a passion and joy when you do. Whether you run your business online, face to face or both. Whether you do workshops or classes... you pick what gives you the most joy and you WILL see results

Craft morning tea for 3 birthdays

Lovely craft morning last Thursday, we craft ladies celebrated 3 birthdays in one go (somewhat late due to other commitments) and enjoyed a morning tea at Muffin Break at Fairfield Waters. We had our two youngest craters with us as well, whilst Haley doesn't quite yet craft we have introduced her sister Amy to it and she loves to stamp with her Aunty Char and Nana Cheryl with lots of encouragement from the rest of us.

Some of the cards and photo boxes I made whilst away
