New Catalogue is live!

Exciting times here today as the New Stampin' Up catalogue goes live! I have been able to get my hands on a few products as part of the demonstrator preorder but had to wait patiently until today to be able to order some of my favourites which I want to share here with you.

 

Love Today Planner Kit

 

 

 I had been thinking about buying a planner for a while so I was very excited to see this new product. The kit has everything you need and there's even a refill kit available.

 

Memories and More

 

This is Stampin' Up's new range of products to replace our previous Project Life range. They are perfect for pocket memory keeping, traditional scrapbooking and so much more.

 

Embossing Paste

 I love adding texture to my projects and you can change the colour of the paste just by adding a few drops of ink. 

 

Naturally Eclectic Suite

 There are so many possibilities with this stamp set and matching dies and I love the colours in the co-ordinating Designer Series Paper. You can save 10% when purchasing the stamps and dies together.

 

Delightful Daisy Suite

This suite has been a big hit with demos who were able to order it as part of their preorder and I know you're going to love it too! The Faceted Gems have to be one of my favourite products ever!

 

 

I hope you enjoyed me sharing my favourite products with you.

High Tide

Good morning, the sun is shining brightly here today and I know Spring is just around the corner. Once the weather gets warmer and the days get longer, I can't wait to start spending more time outdoors and one of my favourite things to do is go to the beach, so I was excited to receive my High Tide stamp set this week and I decided to use it straight away to make my customer thank you cards for last month.

I stamped the lighthouse image in Real Red and Smokey Slate ink and used the base image upside down with Crumb Cake ink to give the idea of a shingle beach. The sentiment comes from the Helping Me Grow stamp set.

If you would like to purchase any of the items I've used for my card today, you can find them in my Online Shop. Here are the item numbers to get you started:

• 131527 Whisper White Notecards and Envelopes

There are two stamp sets and the most stunning Glimmer paper which I think will be a big hit, I can't wait for mine to arrive!

You can choose a FREE item with every £45 spend, so spend £90 and choose two, spend £135 and choose three but if you spend over £150 you will also earn 20% Stampin' Rewards to spend on products of your choice.

Global Design Project

Good Morning, it's been a long week and I'm so glad the weekend is nearly here. I'm busy at the minute making cards and gifts for the girls various coaches, teachers and leaders. But I did still find time to take part in this week's Global Design Project where the theme was Adventure.

 

 

I struggled with what stamp set to choose for my card before my eyes settled on the Shooting Star stamp set which was sitting in my pile of new stamps that I hadn't yet managed to have a play with.

 

I used my Aquapainter to add some colour from the lid of my inkpad to some watercolour paper, then stamped the star and moon images with Crushed Curry Ink and cut them out with the matching dies.

 

I embossed some Night Of Navy Card with the Lucky Stars embossing folder and cut some Whisper White card with my favourite Stitched Shape Framelits.

 

After I assembled my card, I added a Wink of Stella glitter to my shooting star, moon and all the backround stars so the whole card shimmers and glitters in the light.

 

If you would like to purchase any of the items I've used for my card today, you can find them in my Online Shop. Here are the item numbers to get you started:

• 140490 Thick White Card
• 106577 Night of Navy Card

• 141897 Wink of Stella Glitter Brush

Star of Light

Good Morning, gosh it's a bit nippy this morning isn't it? Today I'm sharing the project from our team meeting at the weekend.

It looks like a normal card from the outside but there's a little surprise inside.....

The card has a box of tea lights incorporated which makes it a card and gift all in one! The design is based on a design I saw on Pinterest by a lady called Marianne (can't find a second name)although I have resized and changed her dimensions for my card.

 

I decorated the card with the stunning Star of Light stamps and co-ordinating dies. To decorate the tea lights, I stamped one of the images from the set onto some white tissue paper and punched it out. I then used my heat tool to melt it into the surface of the tealight. 

I can see me recreating this project again and again with various stamps and dies, it would be lovely done with florals for a birthday or Mother's day.
