More new stamp set samples- Say It With Scallops

Another day... another new stamp set. This time it is the Say it With Scallops set ( Page 58; Code 111678, Price £14.95 plus PP)

Some of you will recognise these as they were a quick & simple set we made in a session the other week along with the mini pizza box - and a session I have been asked to repeat for those that missed it! So watch this space!

Please do email me if you are interested in coming to papercrafting sessions and you live in the North/West Yorkshire area - I will be delighted to send you the current schedule.... ( I have not worked out how to put it on my blog yet...but in time I will!)

New SU stamp set samples - Circle Circus

So it is time for some more samples using the new stamp sets.

This time it is Circle Circus (Code 115778 on Page 55, costs £23.95 plus P&P) I just can't stop using this one... these circles are just so good... and can you spot the golf ball!? And the new large 1 3/4" circle punch made punching those large circles very easy ( Page 88; Code 117405; £12.50 plus P&P)

I also used

• the SU! 1 3/8" punch to make the little handbags. I just cut across the top of the circles!


• the SU! scallop circle punch to make the foldover on the bags. Just cut across 3 of the scallops


• the SU! oval and scallop oval punches to make those bag handles


• the SU! tag punch and tag stamp from the Merry Moments set (Page 16) on the topiary card... I just cut off the top of the tag!


• the SU! large star punches on the kraft card

NOTE - you can now buy packs of 12x12 kraft cardstock from Stampin' Up! too. Hooray!! 20 sheets for £5.95 plus P&P. Details on page 80....

More new SU stamp set samples - Flight of the Butterfly

And here are some clean & simple (CAS) cards etc I made using the new set called Flight of the Butterfly. You will find this set on page 43; item code 111564; and it costs £23.95 plus P&P.

This is one of the new sets I most expect to"fly"off the shelves... especially as it has a punch to match ..... which is on page 88 ; item code 117404; costing £12.50 plus P&P.

I absolutely love this set... which is amazing seeing as I usually do not like butterflies...! Yes I am in that strange 1% minority ..... And it will be even better when I receive my punch!!

The mat pack ( page 91; item code 117395 for £7.50) was essential for easily achieving the pricking on this black & white card
