Sneak Peek... and Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop - Flowers & Leaves

Welcome to the international Global Stamping Friends May blog hop. You are now visiting Amanda Bates at The Craft Spa... in England...

And I have a lovely new product to share with you today... called Mosaic Mood...  which is perfect for our blog hop theme of flowers and leaves... Such beautiful papers along with a matching suite of products...

So after carefully fussy cutting the gorgeous flowers and humming bird from the papers... I realised that the original Pop Up Front Step Panel Card shared with you last month was the perfect fold to show them off...
We were lucky enough for these papers to be an all attendee giveaway at the recent Stampin' Up! On Stage event...

And these papers do need to be seen to be believed... not only do you have the stunning mosaic (or tessellation) pattern and texture going on... but many also have a high gloss finish... so they really do look like tiles on a sheet!!
And here is the display board photo so you can see the whole Mosaic Mood suite coming your way from 3rd June...

Though please do remember to click and contact me now if you are in the UK ... and are interested in a Paper, Card, Ribbon & Embellishments Kit - or a Product Suite Kit (stamps and/or embossing folder too)... Reservations for pre-orders will be taken now...

And with that I will leave you... and pass you onto the lovely Marieke Bart in the Netherlands..
Just click on the big arrow below to go straight there... or use the list provided below if you prefer to hop that way!
Enjoy the rest of your travels... and enjoy your inspirational creative journey around the world ... wherever this blog hop will take you...

And a last couple of words from me... Yes it folds flat to go in an envelope...

And a word of warning! This card is a very tight fit in my square envelope... so do remember to stamp your wording and stick your flowers and bird on whilst using your envelope as a guide!!
