Jill & Gez Go Crafting - 15th May - Everything baby

Hi everyone and welcome to another "Jill and Gez Go Crafting" when myself and my good friend Gez give each other a bit of exposure on our blogs. Just in case you are new around here let me introduce Gez - she's the one on the right - I'm on the left!

Gez has an amazing blog with loads of fabulous inspiration and really detailed tutorials - just hop over to https://www.nigezza.co.uk/. And also a brilliant YouTube channel which you can view HERE. I know Gez is really hoping to get to 2000 subscribers on her channel soon so if you like what you see, please subscribe. 

Today I am focusing on projects Gez has been making for new babies. First off has to be these gorgeous mini albums - Gez really is the queen of mini albums and with these she really has surpassed herself. So pretty!

If you pop over to Gez's blog you'll find photos of all the inside pages and really detailed instructions, including a video tutorial - just CLICK HERE. 

Next up today are these lovely cards using the "First Steps" stamp set and the Gingham Gala papers - so cute!

Read all about these cards over on Gez's blog HERE.

And lastly for today, here is a card Gez made a while ago but with products which are still available. Gez is well known for having a passion for purple hence the colour of this card! Who else would think of a purple kangaroo?

Read all about this card from last July - just CLICK HERE.

Hope you enjoyed seeing Gez's projects today. I'll be back with more in two weeks!

Card swaps from our team training day

Hi there and welcome back to my blog,

Do you remember a couple of weeks ago I attended one of our team training days? One of the activities which is always a highlight on these days is swapping. We can choose to participate in as many swap groups as we like, of 6 or 7 people and each group has a theme.  I opted to take part in a swap with the theme "Using DSP" and I thought today I would show you the swaps I received. Out of 7 people, 5 of us chose to make cards and 2 made gift bags.

I have made a video to show the swaps in more detail. Do take a look by clicking HERE or on the image below.

                             

And here are the swaps in close up. Just click on the designers names if you'd like to see more on their blogs.

It's always lovely when a card is decorated inside as well as out.

Gilly Hunt

Look at the clever closure that Gilly has made for this card.

And the real wow! factor when you open the card.

Mikaela Titheridge

And again, the inside.

Tracy Abrahams

                 .....and the inside!

And lastly, here is the card I made for the swap. 

I'll be back soon with video tutorial showing how I made my card.
