Introducing the new In-colours!!

 If you are new to Stampin' Up! you may not know that this is an exciting time - the launch of the new Annual Catalogue - and with the launch comes new ink colours!!  Every year we get five new inks colours, these colours are only available for two years.  Here is my new catalogue - check out all the tabs where I have marked the products I have on my wish list:)  If you would like a catalogue, let me know and I will get one to you. The new in-colours are Polished Pink, Pale Papaya, Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen and Fresh Freesia. The In-colours are avilable in ink, cardstock, embellishments, ribbon and Designer Series Paper.  I made these cards to showcase the new colours along with the ribbon and embellishments. I used one of the new stamp sets to create the cards - Spiral Die - I love the bold pattern and the stamp is only $23 which is an amazing price point. Check out my online store on May 4 to get your hands on the new In-colours and all the other amazing goodies in the ne

Many Messages!

 Are you one of those crafters who struggles with stamping sentiments - always worried whether it will be straight or stamped clearly?  Well here is the perfect bundle for you - Many Messages.  The bundle comes with a stamp set and metal die. The stamp is fairly large so I decided to use my Stamparatus to stamp the image to ensure I get a clear stamped image and can reink and stamp again if needed - I love the Stamparatus for that. Look at all those sentiments and the different fonts, 19 sentiments in total! I used the Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine along with the coordinating metal die to cut out all of the sentiments. How easy is that?  19 sentiments in just a few moments,  use different coloured cardstock and ink and you will have sentiments for all your projects. I decided to stamp the sentiments using the white kraft ink on black cardstock to showcase all the sentiments. I select the ones related to a birthday and covered the whole card with them. I add some dimension to the car

The magic of the stamparatus

 My parents are leaving today to head back to England - its been great having them here for the past 7 weeks, before they left I got my Dad to help me out in The Squires Shecave!  I asked him to stamp the back of each card I have available for sale with the required Stampin' Up! logo.  There are lots of cards to stamp! My Dad has a bit of a shaky hand so the Stamparatus was the perfect tool to help with the project.  I was able to put two different stamps on the plate; one on each side and depending on the style of the card he would flip the plate over.  He is not a crafter at all, but the Stamparatus made the job super easy.  It kept him busy for a few hours! If you have not used the Stamparatus yet, you really should.  It is the perfect tool to use with all stamps, but in particular getting your sentiments straight, large detailed stamps - it allows you to reink the stamp and stamp again to fill in any missing details or easily stamp a sentiment multiple times to create patterns.
