Birthday Bouquet Notecards Set

A quartet for you today... a lovely little set of note cards using the Birthday Blooms stamp set and the Birthday Bouquet papers... All finished off in envelopes made using the Envelope Punch Board... and then packed in a Half Wide size stamp set case...

Lovely set for gifting...

This was the other project we made at Quarterly Training the other week... nice and simple but very very effective!

As usual I went a bit mad with the Winking! Not only are the cut out flowers from the papers all sparkly...but the stamped leaves on the Mint Macaron mat below... lovely little addition...really adds something special in the flesh...

And then I went too far... the flowers being Winked on the Blushing Bride mat... I personally think this is a bit too much!!

Don't miss the Weekly Deals this week... some great stamps and dies on there this week!!

Here is an earlier post with a Wondrous Wreath round up! Just in case you need reminding of this fabulous stamp set which I have used SO much over the past couple of years...

Built for Free Using: My Stampin Blog

Berry Basket Round Up

Seeing as the Berry Basket die is on Weekly Deals with 25% off... so just £26.25... saving you a fantastic £8.75 off the retail price of £35... I thought it was high time for a round up of last year's projects using it... Most with an Easter theme... Most really simple in style... Just click on the photo to go to the original post...

But before I start... here is an overview of the other Weekly Deals on this week... all great buys!

And our Baskets...

Snapshot of the papers...

And whilst I am looking at these Year End Bargains... a few more worth highlighting... either as un-missable (in my humble opinion!) - or just because they are such a bargain!

Festive Designer Kraft Paper...now only £3.58 for 2x 5yard rolls (RRP £8.95) Really good quality wrapping paper for all year round use... I stocked up! So I do use it all year round!

Chalkboard Paper... 10 sheets of 6"x 12" thick black card... now only £2.90... (RRP £7.25). Perfect for blackboard cards! And great for mini albums too!! I have a cunning plan for these...so I stocked up with these too!

Watercolor Winter Simply Created Kit Now only £9.18 for 20 cards (RRP £22.95). Been on a while so easy to miss! But - at this price- these are fabulous cards for Christmas 2016! And so easy... This kit has been my favourite of all of the cards kit so far!


And last but not least.... The Angled Tag Topper Punch Now just £12.57 (RRP £20.95)...having just made tags in record time for this Christmas - these punches are my must haves - and keepers!!

And if that is not enough... there are 11 items on Weekly Deals this week.

I know that the 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch, the Happy Heart embossing folder and In Colour washi tape will be popular... and check out the leaflets framelits! Loads of you have commented on those new leaves..... But my favourite for you... is Lost Lagoon Cotton ribbon!! It is yummy! Classy but natural...

Work of Art ... Tractor. And a Public Warning!!

So here is the other mode of transport I came up with using Work of Art... 

Again a true CAS card just to show you the concept... Any further additions would have used up all my time & stopped me from sharing ( says the voice of experience!) ...so I thought it better to just mount it, photo it & blog it!

I am glad I found these though...as they reminded me how much fun I had when I opened the Work of Art stamp set for that first time. I reckon that everyone has their own unique Work of Art ...what will yours be?

Remember that the Work of Art stamp set  RRP£20 is only available at the £15 discounted price until 11pm tomorrow night (Tuesday)... but I wouldn't leave it until after 10.30pm to order....!

And my Public Warning... well... 11.01pm UK time tomorrow will bring us the new Weekly Deals... and SU! tell us that there will be more of them than the usual 8... with discounts up to 30%. But also that once the allocated stock is gone...then the item will revert back to full price!

And... wait for it... the Clearance Rack will be updated... don't we just love that! Discounts up to 60%

But remember stock-outs do occur VERY fast... so don't wait...if there are items you want... just order them through my On Line Store! Delivery will be direct to you from Stampin' Up! in 4-7 days... P&P £4.95

And do remember to enter my Stampin' Rewards code BPNRGEWY... then I can send you a little gift for orders over £20 (excl P&P)
