Global Stampin Friends Blog Hop - Exciting Times...

Hello and welcome to the Global Stampin Friends Blog Hop... with a simple theme of sharing our excitement for the new and upcoming 2018-19 Annual Catalogue... whether it be the "new" coming or the "old" carrying over...

So for me it had to be something new... along with a couple of returners...

So I have great pleasure in introducing 3 lovely new products...

The Lovely Floral embossing folder... for the main feature... Used for embossing the card and main panel... as well as fussy cutting for extra 3D effect... and also a little butterfly... but more on that later...

The Love What You Do stamp set... for a bit of extra detail in the wording and foliage to add some colour...

and last but not least... Faceted Dots... for the final pop!

These are part of a great suite ... the Share What You Love suite... which is being pre-released to the world - in 3 exciting bundles to suit everyone's budget - on 1st May... whereas everything else will have to wait until 1st June when the new 2018-19 Annual Catalogue goes live...

But if you cannot wait till May... you could join our Stampin Up family right now... and it could all be yours for £99... with another £11.25 of product to add to your starter kit too! Now that is great value...

Here are some pictures of the Share What You love suite leaflet but Click here for the full pdf leaflet... and/or click here for the Stampin' Up! video for an overview... including seeing the beautiful papers...

And the returners I mentioned... well... Minty is back!!! Yes Mint Macaron is coming back into play! I am delighted!! Along with Blackberry Bliss too... which I know will make lots of my ladies very happy! Click here to learn more about the Colour Revamp and the new colour range come 1st June...

And back to that little butterfly off to the right hand side... just a fussy cut of part of the smaller flower... like so...

And now it is time to pass you onto the talented Rebecca Urban... over in the USA...

Carols of Christmas & Card Front Builder dies #5

This is probably the simplest card of the series... but stunning in its simplicity...

But before I start... NEWSFLASH... the Daisy Delight & Daisy Punch bundle (item code 145361) is back in stock and available to order... 

So if you would like it... click here for my Online Shop to order straightaway before it runs out again... Remember to enter Host/Stampin Rewards code EQDXYJRE for an extra gift from me. 

Also remember that a £45+ order would earn you a £4.50 Bonus Days coupon to spend in August! I would highly recommend topping with the co-ordinating Delightful Daisy papers and/or Faceted Gems (in Gold and Clear) and/or a couple of ink-pads OR the 1/2" Circle Punch

OR for those of you more local... I will be next ordering on Monday, 31 July for delivery here if you can collect & "live" if it goes out of stock again by then!!

Back to the card... Again a simple Notecard with a Layered Ovals aperture.  Delightful Daisy paper mat with white embossed greeting...

Double die cut trees duo... Silver Glimmer over Tranquil Tide for a shadow...

And a Smoky Slate stamped and die cut deer... cut the right way round this time...

And here is a round up picture of the 2 notecards in my series... click here for the details of the other one...

Double die cut trees... Silver Glimmer over Tranquil Tide to give a shadow and more definition...

WOW!

Carols of Christmas #3

More of my series of makes using the soon to be released Carols of Christmas and Card Front Builder dies... Click here for the details on this set (as well as how to get your hands on these now)

Die cut trees and moon & stars (single and duo trees in the Card Front Builder set) Loving these large words... the greeting size being perfect for a Stitched Shapes square frame...

Set on  a Small Square Double Z Joy Fold card... click here for the Tutorial for that...

Featuring the Delightful Daisy papers again for the front and centres... with Fresh Florals for the back...

Colours used - Tranquil Tide & Pool Party with Silver Glimmer...

Note that the Tranquil Tide tree on the front is stamped again for texture with the Background Bits stamp and it is popped onto a Silver Glimmer tree so it has a snow line...

Lovely simple little Fancy Fold card...

And here is the round up picture of my Carols of Christmas Small Square Double Z Joy Fold cards... the bauble one being posted yesterday...

Carols of Christmas #2

Continuing my little series of makes using the soon to be released Carols of Christmas and Card Front Builder dies... Click here for Part One of the series (which was posted out of sync in late evening yesterday!) and for the details on this set (as well as how to get your hands on these now)

Loving these large words and sweet little baubles.... the greeting size being perfect for a Stitched Shapes square frame...

Set on  a Small Square Double Z Joy Fold card... click here for the Tutorial for that...

Featuring the Delightful Daisy papers again for the front and back... with a small bit of Fresh Florals in the centre...

Colours used - Tranquil Tide, Pool Party, Powder Pink & Smoky Slate...

And a quick but simple tip for you.... but first I have to say... how did I live without these Mini Stampin Dimensionals!!  So stamp your trio of baubles (in Smoky Slate here)... then stick the mini dimensional onto the flat bauble... and then stick your die cut baubles on top.... saves lots of time and agro!

Lovely simple little Fancy Fold card...
