Walking in the Park….with Janny!

Ok, so we’re still walking in that park, but this time I have company!

Janny is my gorgeous sister-in-law and one of my favourite people in the world.  She’s the sister I never had and I couldn’t have scored a better sister-in-law even if I had gone out and hand-picked Tim’s brother’s wife myself :)

Janny is the one who introduced me to the wonders of scrapbooking a good many years ago when we thought all that it involved was a triangle and a strip of patterned paper and some photo’s.

And we were mesmerised then!

Janny is also one heck of an amazing stamper and earlier in the year (after no less than three years of nudging and prodding on my behalf) she joined my team of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators.

Of course she is wonderful at it, loves it to bits and wonders why it took her so long.

Janny, sweetie-pie, we all do….!

Here’s an example of the gorgeous stuff she makes – a gift she gave me earlier in the year to thank me for encouraging her to give demonstrating a go…

To the left is a bundle of yummy smelling soap from Lush that I still haven’t had the heart to unwrap, but it sits on my display shelf in my craft room here looking all pretty and still smelling delicious, so I figure it can stay wrapped!

The card features one of Janny’s specialties – exquisite cutting out…

She has the patience and scissor-dexterity of nobody else I know and it amazes me every time I see one of her cards or scrapbooking layouts featuring her awesome cutting.

Janny recently started a blog where she shares her beautiful stamping with the world.  You can visit her —>HERE<— and leave her some comment love :)

I still have a couple of things to share featuring Spring Mini stuff and I’m going to see if I can get them up here by the end of the day.

I make no promises, but I do have a clean house, no washing and a tidy craft room (thank Nanny!!), so you never know your luck…!

WOW that cutting is incredible. I would have sworn that Janny had a punch made especially for that butterfly. I am terrible at cutting so never leave any white and I am in awe!!

Hey Sarah! Janice does the most beautiful work! I remember when she said her goodies are not good enough for her to start her own blog. I’m sooooo glad she took the plunge. Was there some nudging for that as well {wink, wink} LOL! I do concur with Sarah-Jane, it’s a ‘Klass Girl’ thing. You both do the most amazing work!
