<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So yesterday Stampin' Up! announced one of the most exciting new products I've seen for years. This has been several years in the making (and I was lucky enough to be involved in the project team working to brainstorm product ideas from which the Stamparatus was born!). This is such a great new positioning tool!</span></div>

<b>Q: Why does it take so long for the Stamparatus to ship?</b><br />
A: We will place an order with the manufacturer based on how many reservations are made during any given reservation window. Shipping dates depend on how long it takes the order to arrive in our warehouse after the tools have been manufactured.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #505050; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">

<b>Q: When will I be charged for the Stamparatus?</b><br />

<b>Q: Will I be able to add other products to my Stamparatus reservation?</b><br />
A: No. However, once your reservation is transferred to your shopping cart, you will then be able to add other items to your order. Important note: Please do not delete the Stamparatus from your order. We will not be able to add it back and you will lose your reservation.</div>

How has September been for you? Are you enjoying all the Christmas craftiness in the new Autumn Winter catalogue? I am really enjoying the products this year. I love playing with the new stamps and seeing all the makes on Pinterest that people are creating with them.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Another of the projects we created at my August Craft Day was a <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=144645&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Mini Pizza Box</a> (have you seen these? They are foodsafe and perfect for packaging treats for Christmas) with a Christmas Charm Necklace inside.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
We decorated the outside with a belly band created with the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=144111&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Be Merry Designer Series Paper</a> and layered with images cut using the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=140278&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Santa's Sleigh Dies</a> and Red Glimmer Paper and Garden Green DSP. We added embellishments from the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=144215&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Hearts & Stars Elements</a> pack and a length of <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=144117&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Cherry Cobbler Ribbon.</a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Inside the box was a separate project we created, a Christmas necklace with handmade paper beads and a charm stamped with Shrink Plastic. I used <a href="http://www.bigbeadlittlebead.com/guides_and_information/guide_to_making_paper_beads.php" target="_blank">this tutorial</a> to try making different shapes of beads. We glazed with the Fine Tip Glue Pen and added Dazzling Diamonds Glitter for a bit of shimmer. For my two sample necklaces I stamped images from the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=142057&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Santa's Sleigh Stamp Set</a> in Staz On on to clear shrink plastic. I then cut around the image and used my heat tool to shrink the image. I then coloured with alcohol markers to ensure the colours would stay on the plastic.</div>

These would make a great table place setting or extra little gift for a friend. It was a really enjoyable project to make and it went down well with my attendees on the day. I haven't crafted with shrink plastic for years and had forgotten the simple enjoyment of making the image shrink down and creating the little charms.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So today is another of my favourite days in the Stampin' Up! year- the new Autumn Winter catalogue is live today! Crafting for Christmas is the best kind of crafting in this house. I love changing my colour palette to reds and greens and coming up with new gift boxes and card ideas. And of course I can add sparkle to everything!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
To see whats new you can check out the <a href="http://su-media.s3.amazonaws.com/media/catalogs/2017%20Holiday%20Catalog/Holiday%20Catalogs/20170614_Holiday17_en-UK.pdf" target="_blank">catalogue pdf here</a> or pop over to my online store <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/CategoryPage.aspx?categoryid=500200&&utm_source=olo&utm_medium=main-ad&utm_campaign=new-olo-homepage&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">here</a>. If you'd like your own paper copy of the catalogue then just drop me an email on poulton_sarah@yahoo.co.uk and I'll happily pop one in the post for you.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
And as if new catalogue loveliness wasn't enough. Stampin' Up! have also announced a fabulous new Hostess promotion for September and October. If you host a party with £250+ sales you will receive the exclusive Merry Patterns stamp set for free.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMlSYwSpzYloZzeFcOr_ZDeA8egX8zN_WenBiPIEDvOiWHtViVf8CKUvDywJgCDmbgwfwI9dTxvV8XppKMD0r4DceFebIdRgNZq4aTo8Om_-JBslXDnDWi5REehfRi3XahsbIVu7KGE4U/s1600/Shareable_MerryPat_090117_EU.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="1200" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMlSYwSpzYloZzeFcOr_ZDeA8egX8zN_WenBiPIEDvOiWHtViVf8CKUvDywJgCDmbgwfwI9dTxvV8XppKMD0r4DceFebIdRgNZq4aTo8Om_-JBslXDnDWi5REehfRi3XahsbIVu7KGE4U/s640/Shareable_MerryPat_090117_EU.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

And finally for this fabulous new crafty day I thought I would share one of the fabulous new Stampin' Up! Thinlit sets- the Trim Your Stockings Thinlits Dies. These dies also come as part of the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=146062&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Tags and Trimmings Bundle.</a> These dies have 19 elements to make this gorgeous little pillow box stocking project. I love all the extra little embellishments that come with the dies including the trim die and the snowflake (as well as holly, hearts, tags and a bell die too). The box is so simple to put together and could be used for table decorations or place settings or even a homemade advent calendar!</div>

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Good morning lovely crafters.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
What a fabulously Stampin' Up! weekend I have just had. A perfect example of why I love Stampin' Up! so much. I shared a whole day of crafting and fun with 14 lovely crafty friends on Saturday for my 7th annual Christmas Craft Day and then my fellow Stampin' Up! Demo friend Katie brought her gorgeous family to visit Saturday night and we shared a fun filled day with our families yesterday. This is why Stampin' Up! has made such a difference to me. I have made so many new friends and get to share crafting with likeminded lovely people.</div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And on the theme of sharing I have one of our crafty projects from Saturday to share with you today. Such a simple project to make and could so easily be personalised to your own colours or stamp preferences. I themed this project mainly around the fabulous <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/itemlist.aspx?categoryid=500090&utm_source=olo&utm_medium=main-ad&utm_campaign=new-olo-homepage&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Carols of Christmas Bundle</a> available to purchase exclusively this month before the launch of the new Autumn Winter Catalogue next month.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For this project I purchased the Tolsby Frames from Ikea. They are designed for two 4"x6" photos. However, if you take out the plastic inserts they are a perfect stand to make this flip frame home decor project.</span></div>

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">Happy Monday Crafty Friends. How has your weekend been? I've been super busy making samples and prepping for my big Christmas Craft Day in a couple of weeks. Yesterday I cut 2448 one inch square paper pieces. To see what we will be making with these squares pop back later in the month and I will share all our Christmas in August projects (and I might even have a few sneak peeks of the new Autumn Winter catalogue too!).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="text-align: justify;">Today I have another </span><a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=143637&dbwsdemoid=5001409" style="text-align: justify;" target="_blank">Beautiful You</a><span style="text-align: justify;"> share. I adore this stamp set and its versatility. This card was inspired by a greetings card I saw on Pinterest. It uses masking (created with a Post-It) to cover the lady and stamp the background sentiment repeatedly down the card with the one contrasting coloured sentiment to highlight the birthday greeting.</span><br />

The colour scheme for this card is Rose Red and Basic Grey. I don't often think to stamp with a grey ink pad. But i was super happy with this effect.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To finish the card I added <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=144200&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Glitter Enamel Dots</a> and <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=144142&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Clear Faceted Gems.</a> I could add these to every project I make as I love an extra bit of sparkle.</div>

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Good morning crafters.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
How is your month going? Have you been getting lots of lovely crafting done? I am busy getting projects ready for my big Christmas Crafting Day next month. It is only 9.40am and I've been busy with paper beads and shrink plastic. All to be revealed very soon. I still have a few places available for the day on August 19th. So if you live local to the Isle of Wight and fancy a fun day of Christmas making then get in touch on poulton_sarah@yahoo.co.uk.</div>

Today's crafty make is a project I made for my lovely Hostess Club ladies. I always like to make a little something to pop in the envelopes with the monthly orders so I am always on the lookout for new and interesting things I could make. I came across these fab little books of post in notes in Flying Tiger. I used the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=143637&bwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Beautiful You stamp set </a>with paper pieced Designer Series Paper to create these cute little gifts.</div>

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hello crafty lovelies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
How are you doing? Have you been getting much crafting done in this lovely weather we've been having? I've been enjoying the long summer evenings with my cross stitch. My girls bought Sam a fire pit for Father's Day so we've been enjoying sitting outside around the fire and the light nights are perfect for making progress on my hare and the moonlight big stitch.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've also been busy on the Stampin' Up! front. This past weekend Demonstrators up and down the country were all doing their bit towards the Birthday Wishes Challenge. Over two weekends this year Stampin' Up! are looking to make 10,000 cards to donate to their partnered charity, the Ronald McDonald House Charities. I asked ladies at my events on Friday and Saturday to make extras to donate to the Challenge and between us all we managed to make a fab 45 cards. They've all been packaged and posted to Stampin' Up! UK HQ today.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When I first saw the new Stampin' Up! catalogue I was immediately taken with the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=144701&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Floral Statements stamps</a>. I love the boldness of the sentiment and the flexibility of the colour scheme. The flowers can be coloured to suit any occasion. I chose this stamp set as the focus for my recent new catalogue parties. I partnered the stamps with our new <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/CategoryPage.aspx?categoryid=501200&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">2017-2019 In Colours.</a> I am addicted to all things Lemon Lime Twist.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once we stamped the images in Memento Black we used Blender Pens with <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/CategoryPage.aspx?categoryid=501200&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist and Powder Pink</a> to colour the floral detailing. To finish we added <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=141897&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Clear Wink of Stella</a> over the top of the flowers to give a little shimmery sparkle. The image was then layered over In Colour cardstock to compliment the coloured images.</div>

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Happy Monday Crafters.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
How was your weekend? I'd like to say I was hugely crafty and productive. But that is not the case. It was more a snuggle under a duvet and cross stitch kind of weekend. I did, however, manage to make a very special card for a very special friend who is currently in hospital. Have you seen t<a href="https://www.facebook.com/FirstMediaBlossom/videos/10155322464069586/?autoplay_reason=all_page_organic_allowed&video_container_type=0&video_creator_product_type=2&app_id=2392950137&live_video_guests=0" target="_blank">his video?</a> It keeps popping up on my timeline on Facebook. Such a simple but effective idea. I knew it would be perfect to take to my friend in hospital as actual flowers aren't allowed on the ward.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Here is the card I made:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I used a gorgeous new stamp set from the upcoming 2017-2018 Annual Catalogue called Happy Birthday Gorgeous to create the floral background and the sentiment is from <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=143637&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Beautiful You.</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
You open the card and here are the flowers inside. I created these using 6" square pieces of DSP from my piles of retiring papers. They pop right up out of the card. It is super effective (and hard to capture in a static photo). My lovely friend was a joy to see today and I'm glad my card could bring her a little floral sunshine to her bedside table.</div>

Happy May lovely crafty friends.<br />
<br />
And to celebrate the start of a new month Stampin' Up! have given us a sneak peek of one of the new catalogue suites a whole month early! These fab bundles are only available for this month and come with lovely free gift extras too .;0)<br />
<br />
I wasn't taken with the suite at first even though I absolutely ADORED the new In Colours featured in the suite- Lemon Lime Twist, Fresh Fig and Tranquil Tide. However, I found this suite of products an absolute delight to stamp with. Once I got going cutting and creating medallions and stamped greetings I was in my element. I haven't used my Big Shot in quite a while so I merrily sat trying all the different combinations of medallion.<br />
<br />
Here is what I came up with.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJrIIrP9hwpnRvAZOPd45mn0g91GGHkgkBEqckU8yFXA-9h3CVJHON4jHjcTXu8DaczVnJls3iyMiaqUyczbUm6yPjw8XNIADTUw7dBGfXxnliuG94j2UnX1MtwgJ14TpWBatyxSLyxj0/s1600/Eastern+Palace+Suite+Set+of+Cards+Stampin%2527+Up%2521.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJrIIrP9hwpnRvAZOPd45mn0g91GGHkgkBEqckU8yFXA-9h3CVJHON4jHjcTXu8DaczVnJls3iyMiaqUyczbUm6yPjw8XNIADTUw7dBGfXxnliuG94j2UnX1MtwgJ14TpWBatyxSLyxj0/s640/Eastern+Palace+Suite+Set+of+Cards+Stampin%2527+Up%2521.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I created the little holder for the card set using the Eastern Palace Speciality Designer Series Paper and added a medallion cut from Tranquil Tide and Dapper Denim cardstock. I finish I added one of the gorgeous Vinyl Stickers and a Gold Tassel (only available in the Premier Bundle).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had fun using the Eastern Beauty Stamp Set with the coordinating Designer Series Paper to create the different card designs and patterns. I just love the simplicity of stamping and using the stamps for colouring. I cannot recommend this stamp set any more highly as I just love playing with the patterns and adding stamped details.</div>

I have a huge task ahead of me today. I have cleared my schedule and I have the Stampin' Up! <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/categorypage.aspx?categoryid=50100&utm_source=olo&utm_medium=o1-ad&utm_campaign=new-olo-homepage&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Retiring List</a> ready in front of me. I am going to tackle my piles of stamps, embellishments, papers and dies and sort out those that are retiring from those that will be carrying over in to the new Stampin' Up! catalogue (which I've had a peek at and is overflowing with loveliness!). I love this time of year, making way for lots of new crafty fabulousness. If you'd like to have a look at the items that are on the retiring list click on the picture below (only available until May 31st).</div>

Today's crafty share is a card I created using my <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=141587&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Jar of Love stamp set</a>. I often overlook this set when I am sitting down to craft but when I had a look at some of the smaller images I realised they'd make a perfect silhouette layered over one another. </div>

I started by punching a circle from a Post-It to create a mask. I then used So Saffron ink with a sponge dauber to ink the circle in the background. Then I simply layered the Jar of Love elements in Memento Black ink over the top. Adding the greeting last.</div>

Good morning crafters and a very happy Monday to you.</div>

How was your weekend? I hope it was as beautiful and sunny as it was here on the Isle of Wight. I had a lovely weekend catching up with an old travelling friend who was visiting the UK from Australia. I gave her a whistle stop tour around the island. My girls loved finding out more about Australia and asked a lot of questions about kangaroos.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Today's crafty pair of cards were inspired by a masked card I'd seen on Pinterest. I'd been having a play with different masking techniques and I loved the simplicity of layering these <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=143183&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Love Sparkles</a> hearts using a Post-It note mask to give the added dimension.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Once I stamped the top row of hearts in <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=132708&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Memento Black</a> I then masked and added the background hearts. Once stamped I then coloured with <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=141709&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Watercolour Pencils</a> and blended with my <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=102845&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Blender Pens</a>.</div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">Happy Monday Crafty Friends.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="text-align: justify;">How was your weekend? Did you get up to anything exciting? I had a play with some watercolouring and some new stamp sets I ordered from the Spring Summer catalogue. I enjoyed just creating and seeing where I ended up. We are on the last few days of Sale-A-Bration now so it is the perfect time to treat yourself to a few crafty essentials. I thoroughly recommend ordering a new stamp set and just seeing where the making takes you.</span><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="text-align: justify;">Here is one of the cards I created. I saw something similar on Pinterest and had a go myself. I started with a Whisper White card base that I scored to give the double layered frame top and bottom. I then positioned the images from </span><a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=142977&dbwsdemoid=5001409" style="text-align: justify;" target="_blank">Swan Lake</a><span style="text-align: justify;"> within the lines and coloured with my</span><a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=141709&dbwsdemoid=5001409" style="text-align: justify;" target="_blank"> Watercolour Pencils</a><span style="text-align: justify;"> (blending over the top with a </span><a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=102845&dbwsdemoid=5001409" style="text-align: justify;" target="_blank">Blender Pen</a><span style="text-align: justify;"> and highlighting the water with a little</span><a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=141897&dbwsdemoid=5001409" style="text-align: justify;" target="_blank"> Clear Wink of Stella)</a><span style="text-align: justify;">.</span><br />

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Happy Friday crafty friends. Hope you've had a good week and enjoyed a little sunshine wherever in the world you are. The Isle of Wight has had a couple of really lovely bright days this week.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
What does your weekend have in store for you craft wise? I am making good progress with my patchwork quilt so will devote some time to getting some more rows of that stitched I think. Plus my other half is off camping tomorrow so I'll have an entire evening to watch Greys Anatomy and stitch- my perfect Saturday night.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I have a set of 4 cards to share with you today. I was experimenting with creating watercolor backgrounds with my acrylic blocks. For these cards I used some brightly coloured Twinkling H2Os I found in my crafty stash (not Stampin' Up! matching colours i'm afraid). That is what gives these cards their shimmer. As I have done with my Stampin' Up! ink pads in the past I applied the H2O paints directly to the acrylic block and sprayed with my <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=126185&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Stampin' Spritzer.</a> I then squished the block on to my Whisper White to give me the watercoloured mixed colour background.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once I let the backgrounds dry a little I used the sentiments from the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=142877&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Big on Birthdays stamp set</a> from Stampin' Up! with my <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=132708&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Memento Black</a> ink to stamp over the top of the watercoloured background.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To finish I added a littl<a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ecweb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=119246&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">e rhinestone </a>bling for added sparkle.</div>

My card I am sharing today uses the lovely <a href="http://su-media.s3.amazonaws.com/media/catalogs/Sale-A-Bration_2017/SAB_2017_EU-Eng.pdf" target="_blank">Inside the Lines Designer Series Paper</a> which can be yours free with an order of £45 until March 31st. I love that this DSP picks up on the adult colouring trend and gives crafters the opportunity to try different colouring techniques. For this card I chose to use my <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=141709&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Stampin' Up! Watercolour Pencils</a> from the Spring Summer catalogue.

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Good morning and a very happy (rainy) Monday to you all. It is blowing a real hooly here. We've just opened our front door to find two ducks have taken up residence is a substantial car park puddle as well as seeing our beautiful local red squirrels sheltering in the trees (hanging on for dear life in this wind more like).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So on that note I have a lighthouse card to share today. I adore the<a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=143006&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank"> High Tide stamp set </a>and especially this sentiment. I've been talking to crafty friends recently about how we should all send more 'just because' cards. People expect cards on birthdays and Christmas but think about the delight we all feel receiving a lovely piece of handwritten post unexpectedly. I've decided that from time to time I will post a card to a loved one just to say hello. This card will be the first one in box of cards to send. I love the sentiment and the little ray of sunshine it may bring to someone.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
For this card I decided to keep it all tonally one colour. I simply used Night of Navy and Whisper White. When inking I created different shades by stamping off on to a scrap piece of paper before stamping on to my Whisper White. This is a simply technique for giving different variations of the same colour and adding depth to your stamping.</div>

A very Happy Sunday Crafters.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br />Whats happening where you are? I've had another busy weekend of patchwork and party prepping. I've been getting messy and having some fun with watercolouring getting ready for a Stampin' Up! party on Wednesday. I'll share those projects later in the week.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A very happy Sunday my crafty friends. I thought I would take some time out of my Sunday afternoon patchwork piecing schedule to share a set of paper pieced cards I created with some crafty friends last weekend.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you've been on Pinterest recently you will have come across a multitude of cards created with the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=143637&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Stampin' Up! Beautiful You stamp set</a>. I wasn't a big fan of this set from the pictures in the catalogue until I saw all the creative things people have been making with it. And then once I'd seen the different paper piecing variations I knew I had to treat myself to the stamp set to have a go myself.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Paper piecing is my all time time favourite stamping technique and this stamp set lends itself perfectly. I began by cutting my layers of Whisper White and DSP from the <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=141654&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Blooms and Bliss Designer Series Paper set</a>. Once I had decided on my floral layers I then kept the offcuts of DSP for the stamping of the dresses/hats. I used Memento Black ink and stamped the elegant ladies once on to my Whisper White layer and then again on to my DSP scraps. I chose to turn my DSP over and use the coordinating papers on the other side (and I deliberately chose prints that would look like lovely elegant dresses).</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once you have stamped the image again on to DSP you simply take a sharp pair of scissors and cut around the dress elements from the image. Once cut you simply adhere on to the Whisper White stamped image giving you a simple but effective patterned fill on your stamping.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I love the simplicity of the technique and I felt the images were enough without making too much additional fuss on my cards. So once I had stamped the matching sentiments I simply added a hand doodled frame to each card and voila they were complete!</div>

I am in the middle of so many crafty projects at the moment. I am hoping to share some progress pictures very soon. I have recently started a new charity Stitch Along for Mind and I am loving trying a new style of cross stitching. Once I've finished the colour I am stitching I'll take some pics to share. Similarly I am alternating the SAL with piecing together lots of patchwork hexagons for a quilt for my daughter's birthday (it is a real family affair as Dad is cutting paper patterns, Mum is tacking them and then we are all getting stuck in to stitching the hexagons together- a month till her birthday- wish us luck!!!)</div>

And now back to some crafting. Since we moved I've found paper crafting a bit of a struggle. I am a get everything out and make a big mess kind of crafter not a contain everything neatly in one box. So not having everything with me in the new place we are living has been a challenge. But when I saw the gorgeous new stamp set <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=143006&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">High Tide</a> and the beautiful <a href="https://www2.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=141642&dbwsdemoid=5001409" target="_blank">Serene Scenery</a> papers I knew they would make a perfect birthday card for my Mum.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
For the inside of the card I added the seagulls and lighthouse.</div>

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So this weekend I suddenly realised that December starts this week! Which can only mean one thing- my December album! For those that have followed my blog for a while you'll know I have completed an album every December for the past 6 years. Last years is still half finished as I over complicated things and ran out of steam. So this year I am keeping things very simply - pictures and Hello December cards. That is it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Well after realising how quickly December was upon me I spent some time yesterday designing and completing my album cover (the first time I have ever completed it in advance!).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For this cover I wanted a magical floaty feel to the stamping. So once I'd positioned all the elements from the Hello December Accessory Pack (including the gorgeous foiled 2016 acetate element) I added my Christmas Magic snowman in Crumb Cake Ink and then added snowflakes, stars and hearts flying above him. To give a little sparkly I added Clear Wink of Stella over all the stamped elements.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And to give you an idea of just how simple my project is going to be this year, here are all my supplies - Hello December Cards and Accessory Pack. I have a small shopping bag which contains a tombow glue, sticky tape, glue dots and a couple of festive stamp sets to go with this. But this is it! I will not spend 3 hours a day on one page this year. I want simply and lovely pages celebrating the season.</div>

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Good evening and a very Happy Saturday to you. What are your plans for the weekend? I have a stack of pre-cut card bases awaiting some ink and stamps to create my Christmas cards 2016. I have the design in mind. I just have to make the time to get the cards actually created ready for writing and sending.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Today's crafty share is another card class make from October. I love the simplicity of the Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler tones of this card. I used the Wonderful Year stamp set coloured with my Stampin' Write markers to give the two tone sentiment. I layered this over a piece of This Christmas Designer Series Paper.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I added a length of ribbon wrapped around the card and tied one of my all time favourite embellishments, the holly from the Christmas Trinkets.</div>

This is a super simple stamped Christmas card. Easy to reproduce and the stamped sentiment is simply beautiful so doesn't need a lot of additional embellishment.</div>

UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Good morning crafters. How was your weekend? Mine was spent dealing with a series of moving related mini crisis (including a blocked drain and a smoking washing machine!). But I did buy my very first car. At the grand age of 35 I am now officially on the road with my bright yellow Hyundai, happily named the Sunny Sunflower by Summer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The card I have to share today was one of the projects for my October card class. I do love a good fancy fold card and I'd seen a few of these on Pinterest and thought they'd make a perfect Christmas card as the shape of the card itself looks a bit like a Christmas cracker.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
For the Cherry Cobbler card base I used the fab Splitcoast Stampers <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/diamondfoldcard" target="_blank">tutorial</a>. I then added my Garden Green panels and stamped my images on to the Whisper White layers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="text-align: justify;">The pictures don't quite capture the sparkle of the card which I added with my Wink of Stella brushes. I stamped in Memento Black and coloured with my Stampin' Write Markers.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="text-align: justify;">And the beauty of this Fancy Fold is that it folds down in to a compact 4" square envelope.</span><br />
