Valentines Day

Hi Guys

Todays offering is a gorgeous set of cards and envelopes that I cased from a blog and I can't remember the name, the cards aren't exactly the same but the measurements and the envelope idea is from this lady.  If you know who you are please let me know and i'll shout it out next time.

 Today is Tuesday and I'm trying to get organised as I'm singing at Ronnie Scotts in London tonight (Soho)  its a fantastic venue so very excited.  I'm backing for Sian who you can check out on www.siancross.co.uk I am actually going to be wearing a dress which I rarely do for singing, just don't feel especially able to groove in a dress - in direct contrast to the lovely Julie Kettlewell, another SU demo, who moves superbly in evening gowns no less ;o) You can check out her blog for some awesome photos.

So here are the cards and envelopes.  The colour combo is Real Red, Pretty In Pink and Very Vanilla, sooo cute!

The DSP used is from the Colour family stacks, great value at £19.50 and the envelopes are run through the big shot with the envelope die. The sentiments on the cards are from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  The Very Vanilla part is punched out using the Decorative Label Punch.

Hope you like them

Contempo Cards

Hey Guys

Still on the Christmas theme, I'm on a mission, cant you tell?  This card is also made using Contempo Christmas but I've used the tree instead of the bauble this time.  This card is cased from Julies Japes but I added glitter to the body of each of the trees to add a little Christmas sparkle. 

To make this card
Card - Old Olive, Real Red, Very Vanilla
Ink - Real Red, Old Olive
Stamps - Contempo Christmas
Tools - Decorative Label Punch
Embellishments - Basic Rhinestones, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter

Amazing Christmas Offer!

Hey Guys

I have another Christmas card here, isn't it just the way that when you start with a particular stamp set and get going all sorts of ideas pop into your head and you just can stop.  I may stop when I think all of you are sick of the stamp set but this one has to be a keeper.  I love it, its called Contempo Christmas (120594) and so cost effective at £12.95 (4 stamps) for the clear stamp set, you really cant do better than that.  I've used the matching Ornament Punch (119847) £15.50 which just makes live so easy when you have lots to do.

So here is my amazing offer - buy both the Contempo Christmas & the Ornament Punch and I will include the Night of Navy 5/8" Satin Ribbon for only £2.50!!!  Thats approx 14metres of gorgeous satin ribbon worth £6.75 for only £2.50!!!  The total cost of your pack will be £30.95 plus p&p £4.95. Offer is limited to one per person and is available for month of August only.  Email me on stetson_stacey@hotmail.com to place an order.

**Please note Contempo Christmas is also available in wood (118734) at £15.95, if you prefer the wood, your order total would be £33.95 plus p&p at £4.95.**

Here is a close up of the ornament, I have stamped it directly onto the Very Vanilla cardstock then stamped again on a smaller piece to then punch out, fold slightly and adhere to the card, so effective!

 

To make this card

Card - Night of Navy, Very Vanilla, Garden Green

Ink - Night of Navy

Stamps - Contemp Christmas

Tools - Ornament Punch, Decorative Label Punch

Embellishments - Night of Navy Satin Ribbon

Notepad!

Hey Guys

Here is a little notepad I've done, these are really easy and are also quick to do, ideal if you have a craft fayre coming up or a party.  The picture doesn't really do this justice as it is in a plastic bag but you get the idea.

To make this I've used
Card - Rich Razzleberry, Whisper white, Old Olive
Ink - Rich Razzleberry
Stamps - Teeny Tiny Wishes, Trendy Trees
Tools - Word Window Punch, Decorative Label Punch

Hope you like it

The sick bed!

Hi Guys

This cute little thing was inspired by something my upline Michelle Last did as a swap a while ago.  Its was two top notes made into a little pocket with a little owl paperclip and an insert for a wish list.  Anyway I thought the little pocket looked a little bit like a bed & when I saw the nurse owl on Julies Japes I just knew I had to do this.  So here we have a sick owl and a nurse owl on standby!

This is probably self explanatory for everyone so I wont give details although if you want them please email me.

Get Well Wishes is from Teeny Tiny Wishes, a US set I got on my recent trip to NY

And my poorly owl with the half shut eye, so cute!

To make this card
Card - Rose Red, Very Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, Early Espresso, Whisper White, Bashful Blue, Real Red, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede
Ink - Early Espresso
Stamps - Teeny Tiny Wishes
Tools - Big Shot, Top Note, Owl Punch, Word Punch, Decorative label punch
Paper - Springtime Vintage DSP

Hope you like it and come back again soon
