Monday Mother's Day - Easy Ever Eden Centre Step Card

An Easy Ever Eden Centre Step Card for you... simply made but then all dressed up nicely for Mother's Day wishes... 

Though sadly these papers are now retired... along with the Sprig Punch I used for the golden leaves (to co-ordinate with the foiled element in the papers)... As indeed are the Friendly Hello Stamps I used for the flowers and leaves.... Triple oops!

But do spot the stunning little (and currently available) Bumblebee trinket... love these!

Sunday Suite - Pansy Petals

So the Pansy Petals suite was a clear favourite suite of my customers voicing an  opinion on seeing the catalogue for the first time... 

So... live in the UK? I am happy to tell you that I have put together a co-ordinating Paper, Card & Embellishment Kit... which is particularly good value as there are a lot of colours featured in these papers! Not only all the new In Colors... but more besides... so fantastic to have a kit with some cardstock to co-ordinate with all the colours... 

But don't delay to order... as I need first round orders by 11th May to make sure I can order everything I need... Though there may be a delay for me sending out to you due to the Trinkets situation... so maybe replacement cardstock instead!

Click HERE for the video of the suite... but scroll on to see all the product images and inspirational projects...

Starting with the whole Pansy Petals suite with one click! Which is definitely the best way to order in the cuircumstances! As... please note that this is currently backordered as the Bumblebee Trinkets are already on back order... but fear not in placing an order... as the little bees will just arrive separately when they fly into the warehouse!

Consisting of the Pansy Patch Bundle ( with 10% discount)

Which in turn consists of the Pansy Patch stamps...

And the co-ordinating Pansy Dies...

And the fabulous Pansy Petals papers... check out all the sheets here... as not only do you have all those colourful pansy sheets... but 3 ginghams, a stripe, a dotty and a subtly patterned! 

These also co-ordinate so well with all the new In Colors - a match made in heaven!

And last... but very definitely not least... the Bumblebee Trinkets... which are on back order... and I highly recommend ordering these sooner rather than later as  these are very likely to go going unorderable... as they really are just fabulous! So demand has already outstripped stocks... 

And here are a few gorgeous inspirational projects... along with a few tips for you...

Now is it just me... or does the large pansy image below look like a shaggy doggy face? If someone would like to try it in relevant doggy colours - I would love to see that... as I don't have the stamps to give that idea a whirl! 

And I think the dies would work too.... again see the image below...

Look at the dies simply cutting the images from the papers...

And here's a brilliant "Cheat's Guide" of the stamps and dies...  put together by fellow talented demonstrator, Gail Ellis at Blue Rose Paper Treasures... now doesn't that make life simpler! Thank you Gail!

Elegantly Said Lock & Pop Card

Returning to my Fancy & Fun Fold Friday posts.... with a Lock & Pop card... as shared by Sam at Mixed Up Craft here... another one I love Sam...

A stunner care of the new Elegantly Said suite.... these foiled Elegantly Said Papers are so stunning... and so elegant! I love them! Along with the Stitched So Sweetly die cut frame...

And I know that these cards will be a real hit when I get back to running classes for a living!

This first one was made especially for my son's birthday... 

Though... I couldn't resist adding one of the gorgeous new gold Bumblebee Trinkets which may puzzle him... 

Though actually it is a great good luck symbol for him at present... as many of the attributed symbolisms of a bee make sense in his life at present... such as focus, persistence, harmony, loyalty and industrious (as in busy as a bee)

And don't forget to order your Simply Elegant Kit soon... as actually... it forms the base of a nice Class in the Mail with the cards I have already made... so a bonus for you!
