The Stamp Man/Stampendous Giveaway!

I've been promising some blog candy for a while, so here it is...

The prize:

Stampendous - Poinsettia - Jumbo Cling Rubber Stamp - CRS5041

Stampendous - Scarlet - Colour Fragments - FRC11

Stampendous - Aged Scarlet - Embossing Enamel - FREG039

Stampendous - Green - Glass Glitter - FRG12C

Here is a little inspiration from the Stampendous Design Team for this lovely poinsettia design.  The separate border stamp will prove useful all year round.

NEW!  Stampendous Oct 2012 

I thought it would be nice to coincide this giveaway with the new release from Stampendous which is actually their Spring 2013 designs, along with more Frantage style designs to add to the ever growing collection.  I previewed the new catalogue in my previous post and gave a few sneaky peeks but to see the full catalogue click HERE.

Every Day is a Holiday

As most of us are still making our Christmas cards I thought I would pick products for this prize from the Stampendous Every Day is a Holiday Catalogue that was released back in July but contains lots of gorgeous Christmas designs.

Blog Candy Giveaway

I just wanted to remind you of the great blog candy that is available over on Asia's Blog where we are sponsoring a prize which will be from the new seasonal releases from Stampendous that they will be launching at the USA Trade show (CHA) in America this coming week.  I am leaving the link to the original post here at the top of this page until the end of July, I hope you will visit Asia's blog and join in!

Asia has also had her first Blogstar post for Stampendous today with when I looked I realised that Asia has used a stamp she won in our annual awards competition, the I Love Paris stamp which is also a favourite of mine.  It is a beautiful entry Asia!!

I have a couple of cards to show that I haven't shown here yet that I have made using the Woodware chippies, the ornaments sheet, along with Stampendous encrusted jewel Frantage products, the same I used on the handbag chippies in previous posts.

I made up an A5 sheet using matching shabby enamels, shaved ice and glitters then cut it up or tore it to use as borders.

I love the round baubles too!

Woodware Bauble chippies - £1 per A4 sheet!

Thanks for visiting and have a great week!!

Blog Candy Alert!!!

The super talented Asia King has recently been picked as a design team member for Stampendous and will be one of their Blog Stars for the next 3 months!! It is a well deserved position and Asia is the only UK member on this team.

We know that she is SO excited and therefore have decided to sponsor a prize as part of Asia's current blog candy competition.

There are 3 parts to the competition that you can enter, you will find all the details on Asia's blog HERE


The competitions end on 31st July 2012 and are open to those residing in Europe, so do pop over to Asia's blog to join in.

The prize is a mystery... But I can say that as Stampendous will be releasing new goodies at the CHA Trade Craft Show in Chicago we thought it would be great to offer something newly released!!

If you want some sneak peeks at the new stuff do keep an eye on the Stampendous blog for their up to date news from the show. Click on the image to visit their blog.

We will of course let you know about the availability of the new stuff as soon as we know.

Good luck!!!!

PREVIEW: AOD 62 Artistic Elements designed by Tracey Coates

I decided to quit the teasing and let you have a full peek at one of Tracey's new stamp sheets.  As you can see they are quite different! 

Some of the wording will fit into the frame in the centre, ie the Created by will leave enough space for you to add your name.

The individually created for you text can be used with the smaller ink splodge on the back of your card where you can also add your name, just a little different from the handmade by stamps and ideal for cards where you have used some messy techniques.

I think the designs will be great used with the new distress inks, but then I can also see them used with other inks and embossing powders.  Some designs will be useful for ATCs and journaling too.  I can't wait to play with them.

I'll show the other new stamp sheet tomorrow.

They are not on the website just yet, I will let you know when I put them on.

BLOG CANDY

If you haven't entered the blog candy giveaway, here is a final reminder to get on and do it as it ends at midday tomorrow!

I hope you are having a good weekend!

Jill

Thank You!

Blimey, you are REALLY loving our latest blog candy, I'm not surprised as it is a truly yummy one!! Thank you all so much for entering and also to all the new followers.

How funny are the comments that we can make space for 12 new ink pads in our craft area! Only saying this because I understand so well and have had to have a major clear out recently, I'll explain about that later this week.

I cannot believe our blog now has 300 followers... Welcome to all the new followers who have joined, and thanks to everyone else following for sticking with us. Your visits and comments are all always really appreciated!!

I was in a bit of a panic at the shop yesterday as the distress ink pads have been selling so well, we had loads, but I hadn't actually put a set aside for the prize, and the spares in the warehouse side are dwindling. So, I grabbed one of each to make sure they are safely put aside for the winner before we run out. Phew... It had to be done!! 

There's still plenty left in the shop but, what if I'd forgot to put a set aside and we sold out!!!! Eeek, nightmare alley after you've all entered:)  Time for a re-order me thinks!!

I've been VERY quiet, for me, over the last couple of weeks for a number of reasons, all good ones, but I have been busy. I'll post more about it all this coming week so please call back to hear our exciting news about....

New Stamp Sheets from Tracey Coates
Our next TV Show
Demonstration/Sale Weekend Event
