COLOUR REFRESH!!!

I woke up to exciting news from the Stampin' Up! camp this morning in that we are going to be seeing a Colour Refresh with effect from 1st July 2013!

If you have followed Stampin' Up! for 3 or more years then you may remember the major colour renovation we had 3 years ago. We were promised smaller updates every 3-5 years so here is the first one!!!

The 4 Core Colour families will stay and we will also have the 2 In Colour families however there is going to be a little change within the Core Colours.

The chart below explains it all and please make sure you check out the colours that will be leaving us as these will only be available while stocks last and not necessarily until the end of June.

I am SOOOOOO happy that Pool Party, Calypso Coral, Wisteria Wonder and Island Indigo are going to be staying with us and also happy that Pear Pizazz is back - I always loved it more than Certainly Celery!

If you have any questions about the Colour Refresh or would like to stock up on your favourites before they go then please do get in touch with me!

Petite Curly Label punch now available!

Hi there! I'm very tired this morning as I had a rare midweek night out (inc wine) to see Swing Thing, my favourite vocal duo perform their monthly set at a local bar. Check out their You Tube site HERE, I can highly recommend them for functions/parties/weddings if you are in the Yorkshire area!

So as the title suggests the Petite Curly Label punch is now available for you to purchase. If you missed out on getting it as one of your Sale-A-Bration freebies then it's now on sale!

The price is £11.50 and it will also make it into our Annual Catalogue from 1st July too!

Just a few reminders of projects made using it!

Remember this gorgeous chalkboard card inspired by my downline Angie, well the punch is a definite to re-create this little beauty!

I also used it on the card I made for my friend Jane back in February.

This is the stamp set from the Spring/Summer catalogue that co-ordinates with it!

Right I think I need another coffee!!

Butterfly Home Decor

Hi there! Oooops I didn't blog yesterday! I was having far too much fun doing my ironing and clearing things out in our house!!!

Today I am sharing a really quick home decor piece that is easy to make with only a one punch (Elegant Butterfly), some gorgeous papers (Tea for Two), some adhesive (Tombow) and a blank canvas - I got mine from the Range.

My wonderful downline Kylie made one at our team training a few months back and I had been totally inspired on the day but then put it to the back of my mind and other projects took priority! This project only took me literally 15 minutes. The hardest part was lining the butterflies up!

I know there are certain retailers selling these for quite a bit of money - I prefer to make my own!!

Thank you Kylie for the inspiration - here is Kylie's original design with the Floral District papers.

Right I am going to do some more sorting and maybe some crafting today too! Yippeeee!
