Best of... 25 Years! August Offer.

Best of 25 Years Stamp Sets

As part of our 25-year anniversary celebration, we're bringing back some of our favourite stamp images from the last quarter century and combining them into five sets, which will release-one set per month- until October 2013. Even better, along with some great classic images, each "Best of" set will also include a never-before-seen image!

Some things to remember:

• All Best of stamp sets will include 3-5 images, including a never-before seen image, and will be priced at 17.95 € / £13.95.
• While we are releasing just one Best of stamp set per month (with a new theme each month) until October, all of the Best of sets will be available until March 31, 2014. 
• All Best of stamp sets are available in Clear-Mount only. 

 Here is August's offering:

Contact me should you want to place an order from the new Annual Catalogue :)

Single Stamps!

Single Stamps
 
A few months ago Stampin' Up! asked our North American Facebook friends what they thought of the idea of being able to buy single stamps instead of a whole set. The response was so positive that Stampin' Up! started experimenting with it in the North American Market. The experiment has been successful - so successful that we decided to try it out here too! 

From now until 31 August 2013 (or while supplies last) Stampin' Up! are excited to offer you five single-image stamps for you to choose from!

Details

• These won't be sent in our typical cases or packaging; they'll be packaged in cello bags. If you'd like a case for your stamp, you can buy our Clear-Mount Stamp Cases that come in packs of four.
• This offer is available for clear-mount stamps only.
• The stamps won't come with a Clear-Mount Block, and you'll need to purchase a block separately if you don't already have one. The recommended block sizes can be found on the flyer.
• There's no limit on how many stamps you can purchase.
• These stamps are only available through 31 August 2013, so get them while you can!

Sneak Peek - Project

Yeah, it's nearly the weekend everyone :) Happy Friday people.

I have been playing with my new ribbon - Mistletoe which is part of the current November/December Promotion of the Christmas Gift-Giving Bundle, see here. I joined in a bundle with one of my ladies so that we could both benefit from the promotion and so we both were able to share this ribbon between us :)

I can't reveal the whole picture yet (it's not quite complete), but I just wanted to show you a sneak peek of what I've been working on for a commission lately. The colour combo that I was asked to do just so happens to co-incide with the Mistletoe ribbon, how could I not use this gorgeous ribbon for the project then! :) Enjoy the sneak peek and be back early next week for the picture in full.

Sneak Peak


If you'd like to take me up on the Christmas Gift-Giving Bundle and earn yourself a FREE spool of ribbon or two, please email me soon.

Have a good day and weekend!

Workshop Today - Wedding Themed Cards

Hi all,

Hope you're having a good Bank Holiday weekend and will find a bit of time to do some crafting with the extra day off work :)

I had my monthly workshop this morning and the ladies came away with two cards each using the stamp set Mr & Mrs and the lovely Speciality Papers which I just adore and can't believe it's taken me till now to order them seeing as they've been available to buy for the past 7 months! lol.

As it's Wedding Season upon us, thought it was ideal to make a couple of wedding themed cards this morning, which could quite easily be used for Anniversary cards too. So, after seeing the sneak peeks of the cards the other day, here they are in their full glory:

Card One


This card uses the brayer to colour the Whisper White Speciality Paper - Bride in Blush Blossom to match the colour of the base cardstock. Using a brayer and any ink pad colour from the four colour families over these papers allows you to create your own papers from the choice of Stampin' Up!'s 48 different colours. This card also uses the lovely white satin ribbon too which again, is lovely.

Stamps: Mr & Mrs.
Cardstock: Blush Blossom and Whisper White. Speciality Paper - Bride.
Inkpad: Blush Blossom. Versamark Stamp Pad.
Accessories: Brayer, 5/8" Satin Ribbon - White, Embossing Buddy, Stampin' Emboss Powder - Silver and Clear, Stamp-A-Ma-Jig, SU Bone Folder, Paper Snips and 3D dimensionals.
Card Size: 8.5" x 4".­


Card Two


This card was inspired by Jo, a fellow SU Demonstrator. Taking her card as a starting point, I used the same layout, substituted her layers with the Speciality Paper and changed the colour combo and little embellishments. Thank you Jo, you can see her card here :)

Stamps: Mr & Mrs.
Cardstock: Basic Black Textured cardstock and Very Vanilla. Speciality Paper - Bridesmaid.
Inkpad: Basic Black. Versamark Stamp Pad.
Accessories: 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon - Basic Gray, Stamp-A-Ma-Jig, SU Bone Folder, Paper Snips and 3D dimensionals.
Card Size: A6.­

Here are the two completed cards together that were made earlier today in my monthly workshop:



Hope you like these and they have inspired and given you some ideas on how to use this stamp set teamed up with the lovely Speciality Papers :)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend - Remember to check out today's Stampin' Up! Offer on how to get products in three of the new colours coming to the new Idea Book & Catalogue this October.
