Christmas again

Thanks to everyone that popped along to Yandles Handmade Craft Market last week - despite the slightly inclement weather which was a shame.

I then popped off to Snowdonia for the week and have actually had a week off crafting - just returning in time to make another Christmas card of the week!

This one is made with the Colourful Seasons bundle and another challenging colour combo of Pool Party, Calypso Coral, Night of Navy and Tranquil Tide.

I'll pop back with anything else that was missed last week and have an order going in on Monday 31st if anyone 'needs' anything!

Handmade Craft Market

Fingers crossed for the weather tomorrow as this afternoon has been horrible!

I'll be at Yandles Handmade Craft Market in Martock from 10 until 4.30 selling lots of lovely  cards & gifts made with Stampin' Up! products (including some daisy frames) and will hopefully be demo-ing some stamps and available for you to peruse the catalogue and treat yourself to some products yourself.

These are some of the frames heading for the market:

Daisies!

I also seemed to start something off last week with a new picture I made and have used as a cover photo on my Facebook page.

On page 183 of the Annual Catalogue there is a list of all our 50 colours mixed up to show how well all the families blend and tone together and I wanted to do something with it, so I made this:

, It does show off the colours nicely doesn't it?
Each 'flower' is made from 3 of the daisy punches (so popular we currently can't order them because demand has far outstripped supply) and the centre is one of the matching stamps, stamped in the same colour and punched out with a circle punch.

I've made some smaller versions too I'll pop back with.

July offers

And it's straight back to my latest Christmas card because Stampin' Up! have some offers for you this month.

The first one is that if you spend £45 this month you get a Bonus Days code for £4.50 that you can spend with Stampin' Up! during August (this applies to each multiple of £45 you spend).

The most exciting offer though is a joining offer, we all want to join again.

For your £99 joining fee you get £195 worth of Stampin' Up! goodies, how fab is that?

Firstly you get to choose £130 worth of whatever you want from the catalogue, then you get a free Carols for Christmas stamp set which is brand new and will be in the Autumn/Winter catalogue, this a card I've made from my set:

These are the stamps in the set:

There is also a co-ordinating thinlit set and you can buy this within your £130 or get it from next month.

The other pack you get free contains a pack of grid paper, a bone folder, 2 x 'D' blocks for your stamps, a pair of paper snips and a snail adhesive.

It's pretty good isn't it?  So if you need to add to your stash and want lots extra for your money this is the way to do it.  

If you have any questions let me know - remember there is no obligation to do anything at all after 'joining' you can just buy your initial pack and that's you done so there is nothing to lose.

Christmas catch up

Since my London visit I went travelling again and didn't get to set up posts before being busy at work so yet more catching up before I fill you in on the great offers Stampin' Up! have for you this month.


There have been 2 Christmas cards of the week, which were:

This one using the Letters For You stamp set, Large Letter Framelits and some super snowflakes from the Seasonal Layer thinlits.

And a card using the Flurry of Wishes stamp set again which I challenged myself to try a bit of a different colour combo with Berry Burst and Bermuda Bay.  I've sneaked in some of the new glitter enamel dots on this one too.
