The Autumn / Winter Catalogue is Here!!!


It's Here!!!! :o) 

The new Autumn / Winter catalogue from Stampin' Up! is the BEST EVER! I absolutely LOVE it!

There are so many new and exciting products! As a Demonstrator, I get to order from this catalogue a month before you can see it .... another fantastic reason to join Stampin' Up! :o)

There are new Tools, new Stamps, Papers, Accessories ...... and so much more. Click HERE to download a copy to your computer. 

The catalogue runs up until 5th January 2015.


We also have a fabulous new Promotion starting today and running until the end of October.



If you Host a Party which makes sales of £200 or more, then you will receive the Good Greetings stamp set absolutely FREE! This set is not available in any of our catalogues, so you cannot buy it. 

Anyone placing an order of £200 or more will also receive the set. This can be a personal order or from a Catalogue Party where you have collected orders from friends or family.

This set is going to be so useful! It contains sentiments and greetings for so many occasions :o)



I will finish by sharing a card I made using some of the new products from the Autumn / Winter catalogue.

Bearing Gifts is a single stamp perfect for colouring with the Blendabilities Markers ..... and it's sooo cute! :o)




I masked the image and coloured the background lightly using a sponge and Soft Sky ink. 

The ribbon is the new Cherry Cobbler Sheer Linen ribbon and the paper is from the new Trim the Tree DSP stack.

The 'Joy' is from the Endless Wishes stamp set. I stamped this on Crumb Cake card stock using Cherry Cobbler ink and punched it out using the 3/4" Circle punch.

Stamping With Twine - Technique Card


I love to 'find' fun, different and unusual Techniques for my ladies to try in Class :o)

For 'Stamping' with Twine, you wrap Baker's Twine around an acrylic block and then use it just like a stamp. Once 'inked up' you can stamp several times before re-inking. 

The normal thin Baker's Twine was used for this card, but you can use the thicker Twine too, for a slightly different effect.


I used the really cute Banner Banter stamp set for the little pennants - this is such a sweet little set and perfect for many occasions with the different sentiments included :o)

Our new Heart Border Punch is another cutie too :o) I used some of the 'waste' hearts for the bottom of the card. These would be a perfect size for confetti or for use in Shaker cards :o)
