Some More Mother's Day Cards

 Here are a couple more card I have created for sale for Mother's Day.  Just love that Apothecary Art Stamp Set.

I will be at the Gold Coast Potters Association Mother's Day Craft Market on Sunday 5th May and will have these cards and much more for sale.

Mother's Day Cards

Well I am finally ready to share some of the very special cards I have been creating for Mother's Day.  I will be attending a few markets in the next couple of weeks and will have these and many other goodies for sale.

My first card has been created using Pumpkin Pie, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla.  I have also decorated the inside of each card and created a matching envelope.

 

My next card has been created using Island Indigo, Baja Breeze and Very Vanilla.  Unfortunately I didn't have a suitable Stampin'Up! punch to create the decorative sides so had to use a Martha Stewart punch.

Again I have decorated the inside of the card and created a matching envelope.

I still have some more cards to show you.  Have to go off and photograph them now and I shall be back.

Colour Refresh

TIME FOR A COLOUR REFRESH

Stampin'Up! have announced that it is time for a colour refresh to keep their colour palette up to date and on trend.

The new 2013/2014 Annual Catalogue will include 10 new colours (quite a few of which are returning In Colours from previous years) with 10 of our old colours being discontinued.

The colours that are going will be Regal Rose, Pretty In Pink, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red, Bravo Burgundy, Not Quite Navy, More Mustard and River Rock.  Products in these colours are available only while stocks last (inks, refills, cardstock, ribbons etc) so if you think you would like some of these items before they are completely gone I would recommend placing your order as soon as possible.

The new colours we will be getting will be Wisteria Wonder, Calypso Coral, Pool Party, Island Indigo (last year's In Colours) together with Blushing Bride, Soft Sky and Pear Pizzazz (these colours have been previous In Colours over the past few years).  The 3 brand new colours are Smoky Slate, Crushed Curry and Bermuda Bay.

This is all very exciting and I am looking forward to seeing the new colours.  Is there a colour you will miss the most?  I think I will miss Baja Breeze the most but just know that with so many colours to choose from I won't be missing it for long.

April Stamp Club

These are the cards we will be creating in Stamp Club this month.

I have used the Honeycomb Embossing Folder and the Print Poetry Designer Series Paper Stack in both of these cards.

Both of these products are in the Seasonal Catalogue which is still available until the end of June.

You can also see the gorgeous little flower trim on my Thoughts of You Card.  Again this flower trim is available in the Seasonal Catalogue.  It is gorgeous and I have been using it so much lately.

I have seen lately a number of different styles of cards using the Honeycomb pattern and this is my version.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Not Quite Navy, Naturals White, Inkpads - Not Quite Navy, Stamp Sets - Loving Thoughts, Honeycomb Embossing Folder, Print Poetry Designer Series Paper Stack, Very Vanilla Seam Binding, Vanilla Flower Trim, Rhinestone







For this card I decided to use the pattern in the Designer Series Paper as a feature.
