Spring Catalogue Products You Don't Wanna Miss Out On...

Hey everyone, todays blogpost is to remind you that products from the Spring Mini Catalogue are only available until the end of this month - that's right YOU ONLY HAVE UNTIL MONDAY TO GET IN ORDERS FOR ANYTHING THAT YOU LOVE FROM THE SPRING MINI CATTY!! (and to take advantage of the April promotion - a FREE pack of 'DSP' with orders of £45...)

So today i'm going to share with you some of my favourite products that i would hate for you to miss out on:

First up the 'Create A Cupcake' stampset and the coordinating 'Cupcake Punch':

This stamp set and coordinating punch are so versatile you can make a whole range of projects using them – such as cupcakes, hot air balloons and clouds, pots of flowers and more. Here are two projects that have previously been featured on my blog using these products:

Cupcake Card:

Hot Air Balloon Card:

Another project i have loved crafting with from the Spring Mini Catalogue is the 'Spice Cake DSP':

These 12x12 double sided papers have a seventies feel to them and i think they're fab! You can purchase a coordinating stampset, fabric and buttons too!! Check out this project i made with them:

Or why not treat yourself to the 'Perfect Postage' stampset and coordinating 'Postage Stamp':

I have just loved using these products (the images from the stampset are suitable to make a whole range of projects such as baby cards, valentine and anniversary cards, easter cards and birthday cards) to make crafty makes like this card:

So here are just a few of my recommendations! I love every single product within the Spring Mini and will be so sad to see them all go! So don't forget if you want to add these products to your crafty stash you HAVE to make an order by Monday. Online versions of the catalogue are available on the righthand side of this blog.

APRIL PROMOTION: FREE DSP - Easter Sour Cream Sweetie Packages!

Happy Good Friday everyone! Hope you are all well and enjoying the start of a long weekend. I have had a lovely day today - shopping this morning with my good friend Lucy and then spending the afternoon with my Nan and Dad. Whilst there i delivered some little Easter treats - made from the bold, bright 'Beyond the Garden DSP' (that is currently part of the April Promotion and FREE with all purchases £45 and over!!) Here they are:

These little packages are so simple to make - you can make 6 of them from one piece of DSP! and they made the most perfect containers to pop little sweets and other small gifts!! All you need is some 'DSP' and some 'Red Sticky Tape'. Easy peasey!!

To decorate these packages i stamped the cutey bunny from the 'Perfect Postage' stampset in 'Melon Mambo' and 'Lucky Limeade' ink, onto 'Whisper White' card. I punched these out using the 'Postage Punch' and then layered them onto 'Melon Mambo' and 'Pear Pizzazz' card punched out with the'Curly Label Punch'. Here's some close ups:

I stamped out the 'Happy Easter' sentiments from the 'Teeny Tiny Wishes' set punched out using the 'Word Window Punch'.

If you fancy adding this paper to your crafty stash then you can actually get it for FREE with a Stampin' Up! order all through the month of April!! How can you resist?! Email your order over now: amyjtidd@gmail.com 

Patchwork Everyday Enchantment Fox and Tortoise Cards!

Hey all, back again today with more cards that feature retiring Sale-a-bration papers - 'Everyday Enchantment DSP'. If you would like to own these papers for yourself you will have to make a qualifying order by the end of this week... don't delay - email over your order today: amyjtidd@gmail.com

Today i have a card inspired by my upline Cate - but altered a bit to suit my style. So here are the two cards:

The cardbase is 'Poppy Parade'. On which i layered some 'Very Vanilla' card. I stamped the 'thankyou' sentiment from the 'Teeny Tiny Wishes' on the bottom, using 'Chocolate Chip' ink. I punched out 12 squares using the 'Postage Stamp Punch' for each of these cards from 'Everyday Enchantment DSP'  and layered them. On both cards i punched a piece of 'Very Vanilla' using the 'Modern Label Punch', which i 'Sponge Daubed' using 'Chocolate Chip' ink and tucked a piece of 'Very Vanilla' 'Seaming Ribbon' before gluing it in place.

The differentiating feature of the two cards are the characters that i have used form the 'Fox and Friends' set. First up the cute tortoise, which i inted using 'Pear Pizzazz' and 'Chocolate Chip' 'Stampin' Write Markers' and raised using a 'Dimensional' to give a 3D effect:

Next up the wise old owl!! Which i inked in 'Chocolate Chip', cut out and raised using a 'Dimensional':
