I have had some wonderful expressions of interest from my advert in the January edition of Australian Simply Cards. Thank you everyone. The response has been overwhelming. These are the cards that were placed in the ad so I thought I would tell you a bit about them, the dies used and the prices of these dies.  Firstly though, let me explain, I am a very small business at present, running from a shop on my property. I carry small quantities of stock, but continually order more stock in, so if I don't have something I will get it ASAP. I don't currently have a website with products on but you can sign up to my newsletter  and I will send out updates as stock arrives. Simply send me an email to kookacft@bigpond.com to request to join my mailing list.  Now onto the cards: This card is made using the Sue Wilson Caribbean Island Background die.

So the challenge for April was Pion Designs - any card style, any theme, as long as it uses Pion Designs paper. I was absolutely AMAZED at the gorgeous cards that everyone came up with.

As I said it was hard to pick just one winner and the votes were quite wide spread, but a winner was chosen by everyone's votes and that was...

I made one of these boxes for Christmas and it was very popular, so after Christmas we made one in class. I changed the sentiment to Happy Birthday and I changed the flourishes as the others weren’t suitable. On the original box I used the Marianne Creatables Holly Flourish, this one uses another Marianne Creatables Flourish from the LR0116 Frame Die Set. It makes a great gift for someone when you just want to give them something small. I made the measurements specific to the Ferrero Rocher 3pk of chocolates, but you could adjust it to fit other size packs. Thanks for looking.
