Simple thinking of you card created using the Wonderful Romance Stamp Set and Gray Granite ink from Stampin' Up!

Gray Granite Thoughts

May 5, 2019 4 Comments

One of the things I love about Stampin' Up! is their colours, and the fact that the ink, card and everything coordinates. I've found that when I see something that catches my eye I often think of it in 'Stampin' Up! colours'. The funny thing is I know I am most definitely not alone in this. One of the new colours introduced during last year's colour revamp was Gray Granite. This is an odd one for me as it seems to be a cross between grey and brown. I have to say I love the colour and it was ... VIEW POST

Sampler Project Finally Finished

April 13, 2019 8 Comments

Last month I showed you part of something I was working on, but there was much more to do before I was ready to show you the finished project. Well today's the day. I've been putting together a sampler using a number of stamp sets and here's what I ended up with. SECTION BY SECTION If I'd left this project to the end to explain it to you, this would have been the longest post I've ever written. Instead, I'll link back to earlier posts where I've already shown you how I made ... VIEW POST

An Unfinished Project for #WWYS212

March 25, 2019 4 Comments

Today's blog post is a first for me. I'm showing you something that I'm still working on. The final project is quite involved and to be honest it would be too much for one post. So today I'll show you one part and later this week I'll show you the rest. This unfinished piece is also my contribution to the What Will You Stamp? Designer Team gallery for #WWYS212 Wonderful Romance. I can't believe that the Wonderful Romance Stamp Set wasn't on my first order from the 2019 Occasions ... VIEW POST

Printed Vellum

March 17, 2019 Leave a Comment

In less than 4 weeks I will have a copy of the Stampin' Up! 2019/2020 Annual Catalogue in my hands. What's more I will most likely have already placed my first order for new products too! It's an exciting time to be a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. While I love getting the new catalogue it is a double-edged sword as it means we'll also know what products are being retired for good. Don't worry, I'll be giving you regular reminders of what's going so you can stock up before it's too late. ... VIEW POST

Birthday card created using Stampin' Write Markers and the Wonderful Romance Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! to create a watercoloured effect. The birthday wishes sentiment comes from the Varied Vases Stamp Set.

A Whirlwind Romance

I let you know yesterday that a number of Framelits dies from Stampin' Up! are likely to sell out before the end of the catalogue period. One of the last things I said was to order "as soon as possible to avoid disappointment". Well I hope you were paying attention because one of the sets mentioned, Wonderful Floral Framelits, sold out overnight. You can still get the Wonderful Romance Stamp Set, the gorgeous Floral Romance Specialty Designer Series Paper and other parts of the suite, so I ... VIEW POST

Leafy thank you card created using a leaf image from the Wonderful Romance Stamp Sets, and love and support sentiment from the (free) Lasting Lily Stamp Set, both from Stampin' Up!

Lasting Sentiments

March 12, 2019 2 Comments

There are some stamp sets that I will probably never resell. Some are because I simply love the images, or I have a sentimental attachment to them. Mostly though it's because of the words. I find that while you can generally swap one image for a similar one, the same isn't true of certain sentiments. One of the sets that seems to be falling into that camp is Lasting Lily. Not only is the font gorgeous, but the phrases are timeless too. A BIT OF AN ACCIDENT The leafy background for ... VIEW POST
