July Two-Step Stamping Special

Okay, once again I have been very slack in my postings. Lots going on as usual. Awaiting the arrival of a new kitchen (will post photo's when it is complete) and when I get spare time lately during the daytime it is nothing but weeding, weeding and more weeding! It is rewarding though and the garden here is starting to look a picture with the bulbs coming through and everything being green. The cats are loving bounding around outside and climbing trees for the first time in their life! The chook shed is currently being constructed so hopefully, chickens will be here soon! Can't wait for fresh eggs!

Enough of my country life stories - here is the July Special...

Pretty Vintage Labels

For any of you that have the Vintage Labels stamp set here is a very simple yet pretty card to make. The colours I have used are the Pink Pirouette Textured Card Stock, Mellow Moss and Very Vanilla and as you can see, they go beautifully together. The ribbon is the Mellow Moss Taffeta ribbon which finishes it off nicely.

Love the new In Colours!

I hope you all have had a chance to play with you new In Colours that some of you received in the recent Sample Packs. I couldn't resist purchasing the Extra-Large Two Step Bird punch ($30.95, Pg 15 Mini Cat)and here is a sample of how I have used it on a Birthday Card in conjunction with Cottage Wall DSP.

Living the Dream!

Well it has been four weeks now since we have relocated to the beautiful Barossa Valley. I must say it has been one of the most empowering experiences for me to move to town where I knew no-one and discovering places like shops, cafes etc. At this point, we are loving it, I have met some lovely people and the change in our daughter has been unbelievable! Her previous best friend 'TV' has been ditched for spending time in the garden and helping me bake and cook in our country kitchen! The home and garden are everything I could have dreamed of as well as having my craft room all set up with a beautiful view to the garden and I just need to find time to create more things!
In a few months time, once the kitchen is renovated, I would like to hold a special day of 'Cupcakes and Craft'. I will keep you posted on the date so you can book it in you diary and rule yourselves out for the day!

New Autumn / Winter Mini Catalogue

The new Autumn / Winter Mini Catalogue was released on April 1st with some great new products and 3 new colours! Stampin' Up! have released the 'Big Shot' which is an embossing tool and I'm very keen to get my hands on it (have been a bit slack in ordering due to the move and such!). They have released clear stamp blocks making it easier to stamp with new punches, new hostess gifts and the new colours of Melon Mambo, Soft Suede and Rich Razzleberry with ink pads, refills, A4 Card Stock and Polka dot Grosgrain Ribbon being released in these colours. In the next few weeks I will sample some products on my blog but please be patient because I am in between houses! There is lots to share so please let me know if you would like a copy and I will send one to you.

For Everything

With less than a week left of the Summer Mini Catalogue, I thought I better share this card we have been making at recent Stamp-a-Stacks using the 'For Everything' Stamp Set ($47.95). This is a cute stamp set with butterflies, flowers, birds and scrolls and a great one to use with Stampin' Write Markers and Aqua Painters.
