Happy 2013–Sending many Thanks

 

Today I wanted to say thank you to all my customers past and present and to wish you all a very happy, healthy and of course crafty 2013.

I also wanted to share with you the ‘Thank you’ cards I’ve been making recently, Ive made these for my son to send out to friends and family who kindly sent him Christmas gifts. I made a total of 15 cards and rather than making them all the same colour i made them in 3 colours, Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Rich Razzleberry which matches with the Polka Dot Parade DSP.

         

The opening of the card is such a cute idea using 2-3/8”  Scallop circle punch and 1-3/4” circle punch, creates a interlocking design.

                 

 

 

Just to let you know there will be a new Stampin’ Up! promotion coming soon – starting 3rd January 2013 so please do come back to find out all the details.

P.s Sale a Bration is also coming very soon… keep popping back as i will be uploading posts of what Ive been playing with very shortly.. such an exciting time of year and its even more bigger and special than normal as Stampin’ Up! celebrates 25 years.

Thank you for coming by today, please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or are interested in any products you’ve seen today call me on 01842 828643 or email me laura@mycreativeideas.co.uk

Again Thank you to all my customers, and Happy 2013

Regards Laura xx

Young Vermillion off on retirement

 

Morning Crafters… So today Ive sorted through my SU stash for retired Stamp sets and Accessories, amongst the retired stamps i came across ‘young vermillion’ and ‘pocket silhouettes’ both lovely stamps and so handy for all occasions. Before i put them safe in a box i had to have a little play with them one last time.. hehehe!! To see all of the retiring items click on the ‘going, going GONE’ link on the right hand side of my blog.

so heres the card i came up with to coincide with this weeks Colour Q Challenge:

         

I didnt have Bermuda bay ink or card stock, so opted for pool party and a hint of tempting turquoise when colouring in the little bird.

I used the gorgeous pocket silhouettes stamp set to create a leafy wild area below my bird, so he looks like he’s purched amongst long grasses and wild flowers.

I also added some extra leaf and flower heads to the bottom right hand corner to add a touch of dimension to the card, using the leaves from the bird builder punch and the flower heads from the itty bitty punch set

Supplies: Stamps Young Vermillion wood mount £6.95 and Pocket Silhouettes wood mount @ £17.95, Basic Grey, whisper white, pool party and Gunball Green card stock and ink.

Interested in any products or supplies used today I’d love to order them for you and dont forget retiring items are only available while stocks last, to place an order email or call me today on 01842 828643 i’ll be more than happy to help you.

Thank you for popping by today, till next time xx Laura xx
