Custom Fairyland Keepsake Box

Hey all

Well i have been a little quiet over here I do apologise things are hectic as you can all imagine along with battling against migraine attacks and generally feeling horrible I have been pushing through.

So you all may remember when I did a Fairyland Keepsake Box for the Mystical Magical Myth Market Night I took part in well it went fantastic and my box sold very quick as I only had the one ready to go BUT a lovely lady commented after the original had sold and asked if i could make again. I was very happy to say Yes but could not guarantee it to be identical as every bit of the design work is done by hand.

Enough babbling on..... Well here it is in all it's glory










For those of you who saw the original of this design will probably be able to pick out a few differences but not many, as i did my up-most best to do it as identical as possible for the customer. 

Well I am happy to report that the customer is over the moon with her box and it is now in it's new home along with one of my Fairy Diaries which she also purchased in the market night.

I will have a new design fairy keepsake box completed very soon ready for my next market night and I can not wait to share it with you all.

If you would like your very own feel free to contact me via Facebook >>>> HERE

Saturday's Stationery Gift Box Class

Hi all.

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend mine was very busy.

So on Saturday I headed out to the monthly crop I attend but this month was different, this time I wasn't doing my own thing crafting away and chatting with everyone there I was teaching. YAY!!

The class I did was to make a beautiful Stationery Gift Box and contents, I had five ladies attending the class two of the ladies picked the Coffee Cafe design and three of the ladies picked the Floral Phrases design.

This is an example of what they were going to make in the class, including decoration, tags, 3x3 cards and 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 cards.



The class went amazingly well and I am super chuffed with all who attended the class they all did amazingly well and each one was stunning.

I thought I would share some pictures with you all of the class in action and the end result.
























Now for a group photo of the ladies with their Stationery Gift Box


Seeing the smiles on their faces says it all, to know you have lead the class and shown the attendees how to do something is the greatest feeling ever and I absolutely loved teaching these lovely ladies. 

Each one of the really enjoyed the class we had plenty of chatting and giggles along the way which made for such a wonderful relaxed class which is exactly how I like it to be.

I LOVE MY JOB! I LOVE STAMPIN' UP! I LOVE BEING A DEMONSTRATOR!

I shall be doing more classes in the new year and shall be posting here when I am taking bookings for them with all details. You will also find details over on my Facebook Page: The Crafty Bat and my Facebook Group : Crafty Bat's Stampin' Up!.
