About Me

Welcome to my blog. Thanks for dropping in. I am Lisa, I have been married to Chris for almost 9 years now, and we have two gorgeous girls, Eloise and Tabitha who are 8 and 6. Tabitha has a rare genetic disorder called Langer-Giedion syndrome (aka TRPS type II), which causes numerous health and developmental problems for her, but she is still a happy little girl and makes us smile all the time. I enjoy crafting, and have a rapidly expanding amount of crafting goodies, with not enough space to store them all! Contact me at lisa.seriousstamper@gmail.com

Change of plans

I was due to meeting a friend for lunch today, but unfortunately this morning, she sent me a text message saying she wasn't feeling well. I pondered what to do with the spare time for a while, should I tidy up, do some more cleaning, washing maybe? In the end I settled on having a play with my lovely new craft goodies that arrived yesterday :-)

My latest order was comprised of all retiring Stampin' Up! stock. Well, the colours are changing, and with ink pads at half price, the offer was too good to miss. I got some coordinating cardstock too, again reduced, and a whole bunch of punches. When I brought in the (rather oversized) box from the car last night, my hubby didn't say a word.....he just gave me a 'look'. So, to try and make up for my expenditure (which was hugely reduced due to the fabulous offers), in the extra time I had on my hands today, I made him this.

The main colour is Almost Amethyst, with Pale Plum and Sage Shadow. The stamps are 'Happy Everything' and 'Basic Phrases', with the heart coming from 'Simply Said' and I added a couple from the Tiny Tags set.

I haven't given him the card yet, but I can't wait to surprise him :-)
