Purple coloured winners!!

Hi all

Thanks for all the lovely comments you have left over my Purple Ronnie inspirational disc giveaway, they have made me smile, laugh and feel quite humbled! I'd love to have all of you as winners (that's why the cup on telly is so much easier!) but I have randomly picked 3 winners from here and also from the post on FB for those of you that had trouble commenting here.
Margaret Hourigan, Karen Seal and Yvonne Peel can you please PM me on FB with your addy's.


Thanks again to everyone for playing along. I'll be back soon for a little life catch up. In the meantime I am working away in my ever growing design studio (I've now spread into hubs room!!) being inspired by some great artists and trying to stay warm in this horrible weather ... May? no me thinks more like November!!!

So until soon, as ever, I hope you are well and happy, stay safe and warm and
Happy Crafting
Love

Schlurple the Purple!

Hi all ....

.... and flippin eck tucker where did that last month go? I won't stop to fill you in on life in general (I'll try and come back and do that!) as I am here to share some of the Purpleness of Purple Ronnie and to offer a giveaway inspiration disc ... or 3 ;)

Last week I did a few shows on Ideal World and Create & Craft tv for Serif featuring, of course, the fabulous software and introducing you crafters to the world of Purple Ronnie. When I started working with the kits for samples it would have been easy to do cards as we know them from back in the day, Ronnie on a black background with a poem so I wanted to try and think outside of the box to show you what else could be made with a little creative thinking..... here's a section of some of the things I came up with .....

hmm hmm (coughs with slight embarrassment).... oops as you may notice the cup cake cases are empty .... yumsville ;D

One of my favourite things, my rescue remedy bag with a dark t-shirt transfer onto a hot water bottle cover and a cover on a hip flask.

The wedding kit is so much fun in this collection and a little bit different from the norm.

This is a selection of some of the hybrid cards that I created .... I know me and cards!!!

And this is a selection of digi cards of course, super quick and easy to create with the kits.

Now I mentioned a giveaway .... as some of you know I normally give away an inspiration disc of some of my projects on each show, however as we went all high tech with the craft community event, which was great fun, we didn't have a cup of chance or whatever you like to name the receptacle ;) So I have decided as I have the 3 discs that I would have given away I will do it here instead. The discs as I said are a little bit of inspiration from me to you and have 10 of my projects on from the show including some of the hybrid cards with construction instruction, they open up in craft artist so you can pull them apart, add your own bits and with them as you please.

Fancy one? well all you have to do is leave me a comment here, doesn't have to be anything long winded if you don't want .... just say hi ;) then go to my face book page (badge over there somewhere with a link >>>>>) and write 'done' in the comments under the post about the giveaway .... schimples :) I will announce 3 winners picked at random on Friday 24th May .....

....Good luck and see you soon, until then as ever
Happy Crafting
