Last Chance!

Well I only have a week until I go away on holiday... so today and tomorrow I am sharing two projects using stamp sets that retire on the 30th of June... so order them while you can!

The first... which I'll be very sorry to see go is Happy Watercolour.

This is a little project I made using my Blender Pens.

The sentiment is from Bring on the Cake - also retiring!

The gorgeous butterflies are from the Beautiful Wings embosslits.

I hope you like it and I'll be back tomorrow with another 'retiree'.

Well I showed you the cards we made at class on Friday and I have delighted you with a short video tutorial and today, rather later than usual I wanted to show you the goodies that were awaiting my class attendees on Friday!

I have spent the afternoon recording videos so I just need to edit them and I'll be posting those soon. The series is a Back To Basics look at stamping... so watch this space.

Anyway as well as cherries and grapes we had fresh filter coffee and cake, as always!

Here is the breakfast bar all set up... can you see the gifts yet?

No more teasing - here they are, beautifully decorated notebooks using In-Colour DSP in Crisp Canteloupe, then I decorated labels made with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch and mounted them on a doily after I stamped them with a design from Happy Watercolour and water coloured them with an Aqua Painter.

That cute butterfly is from the Beautiful Wings embosslit.

Well I'm off to make up the rabbit hutch so I can put her to bed and I'll get editing those videos... I have about ten to upload!

Night for now!

Many Thanks

I received an order from a new customer very late on Monday evening, I was so very disappointed for the lady as she missed out on a whole heap of SAB goodies by just an hour!

So I wanted to make her an extra special Thank You card and have also put together a little box of freebies to make up for missing out.

This is the card I made and it uses a whole heap of different stamp sets - all of which seem to be firm favourites with me at the moment...

I used Gorgeous Grunge for the speckled background, Simply Sketched for the leaves, Petite Petals for the small flowers, Flower Shop for the big flowers, Papillon Potpourri for the butterfly and Happy Watercolour for the sentiment.

I also used a fair few punches, Petite Petals for the small flowers, Pansy for the large flowers, Bitty Butterfly, Artisan Label for the background to the sentiment (and Fancy Fan embossing folder) and the Small Scallop Circle to shape the 'banner' the sentiment is stamped on.

I hope you like it and look forward to posting again soon - hopefully my new customer will love it!

Happy - Sneak Peeks

Today I'm using colours I don't often use - thanks to the inspiration of some new Designer Series Paper - Watercolour Wonder. It is in the new seasonal catalogue - out on the 28th... and is probably my most favourite DSP ever!

I used it here as the mat on my card.

I then punched the tag with the new Scallop Tag punch, added a little of the new Gold Bakers Twine, decorated the tag with Flower Shop, adding a flower to each from Petite Petals, punched using the matching punch with 2 pearls added to the centres. Finally the sentiment is from the new Happy Watercolour set.

Such a beautiful spring like card - roll on summer!

Pop back soon!

Tag Gift - Your own mini scrapbook

I received all my new goodies from the NEW seasonal catalogue the other day and am all fired up with inspiration. I came up with this little gift, and even shot a tutorial, but because the products are not released in the UK until the 28th of January, I can't show you the actual products!

I can though, show you what I made... so you'll have to wait until the 28th of January for the video!

I called this the 'Tag Gift' because it is a little gift in itself, thinking about it as I started this post, it is a mini scrapbook!

Look at that gold Bakers Twine!!! It's available in silver too! The sentiment is from Blooming with Kindness and the splodges are from Gorgeous Grunge. As for the Tag Top - there are TWO new punches from Stampin' Up! that make these for you! Inside are lots of little tags! How super cute is that?

Have you spotted the gold Watercolour Wonder Washi Tape and Gold Sequin Trim? The sentiment and star are from 2 new stamp sets Happy Watercolour and Perfect Pennants.

This poppy and the watercolour stamp are from Happy Watercolour.

Make a Wish is from Perfect Pennants.

This love heart is from another set, Language of Love. Doesn't the embossing set it off? That is an embossing folder from the annual catalogue - Needlepoint Border.

Another sentiment from Perfect Pennants - this set also comes as a bundle with co-ordinating framelits. Making cutting banners super quick and easy with your Big Shot!

These hearts are also from Perfect Pennants.

This sentiment is from Petite Pairs... isn't that Washi Tape just scrummy?
