11 weeks till Christmas!!

OK, for the 2nd week of my countdown I've added some bling!!
There are a few features of this card I'd like to point out:
* the silver tree is created by embossing in silver
* the striped panel behind it is patterned DS from the In Color Paper stack which has been sprayed with Smooch Spritz (silver foil).
* the "bling" is Rhinestone basic jewels.
Hope you like it!!
Happy Stamping,

12 Weeks till Christmas (Oh my)

Ok, scary thought I know. But it is what it is, so why not embrace it?

The first project I have to show you was inspired by the lovely work of Claire Daly. I was drawn to the colours and DS papers and went from there. I have used my favourite (now retired) "Dasher" stamp. The "Merry Christmas" is from the very useful Hostess set Mixed Medley. It's great that so many of our stamps have either a coordinating punch or die to match. Anything that saves time is a winner with me. Both Mixed medley and the Festival of Prints DS paper stack, are available in the current holiday mini catty. 
Why not put your Christmas projects supplies list together now and take advantage of our October Promotion. See details below.

Happy Stamping,

October promotion!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes October already, I know.............. it's crazy how fast the year is going.
Who wants FREE RIBBON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The new In Colors for 2012-2014 are gorgeous and for every $60 order you place in October, you can get your hands on a spool of ribbon in one of the colours. Can't decide which colour???? For $120 you get two. A $300 order not only gets all 5 spools of ribbon but also qualifies for hostess gifts! Have fun choosing, and get your orders to me before the end of the month.
You can find the ribbons in the new catty on page 172. They are the Stitched satin ribbons that normally cost $15.95 each!!!!
I'll be back tomorrow with the start of my 12 weeks till Christmas countdown. (arrrrgggghhhh!)

Happy Stamping,

Fathers Day not far away!

Hi all, so much going on at the moment my head is spinning. It's retirement month for our 11/12 catalogue and there are lots of my favourite stamp sets going. Make sure you have a look at your wish lists and snap up your favourites before they are gone forever.
New products are just around the corner which is very exciting. As a demonstrator I get to preorder goodies and I eagerly awaited the post last week. I'm working on some new projects to show you soon.
Meanwhile, Father's Day isn't far away. So I was inspired to make some male cards. I revisited a layout and colour scheme I've used for mens cards before.




I have loved this DS paper, Well Worn for men's cards, but like ALL the DS papers, they retire each year for a whole new bunch.
Email me asap if you would like this paper or ANY retiring products. See my links in the post below

Retiring List

Hi everyone.  Life is so hectic at the moment, stamping has taken a bit of a backseat. BUT I needed to get on here to let you all know that August is the last month for our current annual catty,  which also means this month is when we have the last chance to get any of the products that are retiring.
So,   click on the link below to see the Retiring Stamps list, and the Retiring Accessories list. As always these SELL OUT FAST.  Pls note, some products like stamp pads are "retiring" , but this means in their current shape/format etc. These items will still be in the new catty but just in new packaging etc.
