One of the new products recently introduced by Stampin’ Up! is the Gift Box Punch Board. It was launched at the annual convention in July and I was able to buy one there. Sad to say I was not able to get to play with it for about 6 weeks, partly due to having packed up and sell our house and moving into temporary accommodation while our new house is being built!

Paper Pumpkin Ink Spots
I started to subscribe to ‘My Paper Pumpkin’ when it was launched in March 2013 and have enjoyed opening the box of goodies each month and working on the projects within. As I completed the projects I could not bear to lose/discard the stamps and ink spots that were part of each kit, so I simply popped them into a couple of the cute boxes the kits come in each month. Well, I was tidying up my craft area yesterday and came across the boxes and was amazed by the number and range of colors of ink spots I have now got!! Continue reading

Sale -a-bration. ~ You’re Lovely stamp set
A card made for an acquaintance who was recently diagnosed.
The base card is Stampin’ Up’s Blushing Bride card, dry embossed with the Decorative Dots embossing folder then topped with a Tea Time paper doily.
The ‘You’re Lovely stamp set was used for the center embellishment layered on to Sahara Sand card both of which were cut with the Deco Labels Framelits. Basic Gray ink was used then Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz ink and a blender pen used to water color the flowers.
This was adhered using stampin dimensionals with a twist of 1\4 stitched Blushing Bride grosgrain ribbon and a gentle sprinkling of pearls to finish off. Hopefully it conveys encouragement for her upcoming treatment.
