Stampin' Up! In Colours Set 3

This is for the people who just do not want to use DSP papers. This is stamping, a sentiment and a decorative punch.

The stamp set I have used is the same as set 2, Touches of Texture. a very versatile set, you can get all sorts of looks.

I have used the stap that looks like a long thin impression of a piece os lace, then the splatter. Added a sentiment which has been put onto a piece of card stock punched with the new Pretty Label punch. If every you need any more information, just contact me as I am not always very good at getting it all down here!

Nearly forgot to mention I used some gems and linen thread also available from SU.

More Jar of Love Creations

At the weekend I also made some cards with the Jar of Love framelits and stamp set from Stampin' Up. If you need any information about the products used just let me know. I enjoyed making them all.

Bit dark when I took the photos again, I must do them in better light. It is white and pool party.

Remember tomorrow is the new catalogue day, and I will be placing another order there are a few things I need straight away, you know how it is.

New Stampin' Up Catalogue

Yes, it is that time again, a new Stampin' Up catalogue will be available to see on Thursday 1st June. If you check back here on Thursday 1st, I am sure I will have links to the catalogue page on line. In the mean time, I have completed a video showing the new in colours that I have already purchased along with a few other new items.

I will be ordering on the 1st, so keep your eyes open, as I will be showing some more new products and hopefully get round to making some new projects as well. I would love to talk to anyone when they get creating with the new products.

More cards made last weekend

I made these last weekend and they have been appearing on my Stampin Up Facebook page over this week, so I thought I better let you all take a look at them as well. Check out my Facebook page and any questions just contact me at any time. Hope you have all got over eating all those pancakes on Tuesday!

I have been trying to use up some scraps of paper.

Stampin Up Stamp set Awesomely Artistic

I am loving having a dragon fly in the Stampin Up Catalogue. The stamp set Awesomely Artistic lets you make lovely back grounds as well. At the moment I can't get away from Pacific Point colouring :)

Sorry for the lack of words I am a little short of time at the moment, and last weekend I was not up to much, but I am starting to catch up a bit now especially with the washing and ironing!

My 2015 Craft Retreat

This is my third year at a craft retreat, held every September. As usual I had a fabulous time. This year I had two extra days at the hotel with my husband and my dog. The hotel is near a small lake and park, so we had lots of walks. Also in the hotel is a pool which I usually do not use but I took my costume this time and tried to swim! Dean is like a fish and he can swim with no effort what so ever, me I have to really work hard to stay afloat!! First day I could not swim a length with out stopping half way, but I could do a length the next day, but had to rest between lengths as I am so not fit.

As you can see the lake and the woods were very pretty, and Noddy (the dog) had a great time.

He really really wanted to make friends with the squirrel...well may be not friends with him being a terrier.

After Noddy and Dean went home it was time for the crafting. Two and a half days of cutting and gluing and some laughs with other crafters.

We get goodies to craft with, all meals included and our own room. I also won one of the star prises this year in one of the games, a lovely stamp set and punch.

Stampin' up Baker's Box Thinlits Die

I have had a play with another new die from Stampin' up. The Baker's box thinlits die makes a lovely gift box measuring approx 4" high x 2.25" x 2.75". Would be nice with home made sweets or jewellery.

Stampin' Up Cutie pie Thinlits Die

I have been playing with my new dies, the forst being the Stampin' up Cutie pie thinlits die. You can make a number of them to make a cake, or singularly for a different sort of gift box. I had fun using them, and this was my first attempt.

Stampin' Up Catalogue

I have a shopping list an arms length, I was very modest with my first order, but with my free product I got with my stampin rewards (everyone gets this if you spend over £150) I ended up with 5 stamp sets, 5 die cutting sets and a few accessories. Crafting time!!!!

Gorgeous Grunge Stamp set from Stampin Up

I thought i didn't like the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set from Stampin' up, but i did keep looking at all the samples from other demonstrators and begun to think that may be I must have the set. So my next order included the set, and I am glad I now own it! So I had a late night last night and made a few cards. I wanted to use the 2013-2015 set of in colours that will be leaving the catalogue in the summer, so if you too love the colours get them before they go.

This set of in colours have been the ones I love the most since I started using Stampin' up products and I will be sad if they do not move some of them to the main colour range, as they do that sometimes when a new catalogue is produced.
