Happy Father's Day

I thought I would share the card I made to celebrate Father's Day today. I'm off to spend the afternoon with my Dad at the Isle of Wight Festival watching The Script and Bon Jovi (hoping the sun makes an appearance at some point, or at least that it stops raining for the headliners!).

The card I made for my Dad uses some special sneak peak papers to be seen in a new catalogue near you very soon (the fab New York inspired Soho Subway Designer Series Papers). The stamp set I used to create the fish is By The Tide and I embellished with the fab This and That Washi Tape, linen thread and a retired button.

Wishing you all a lovely & crafty Sunday and thanks for popping by today. Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there.

A little bit of Epic Day This & That

A slightly delayed Tuesday post for you today. 

I thought I would share one of this months scrapbook class pages. I designed the page above using the fab Epic Day Designer Series Papers. All the products in the Epic Day This and That range are still available to purchase, including the fab stickers and washi tape used in the project above.

All the product info is listed below:

Item	Description	Price
131268	Epic Day This and That Journal	13.50 €/£9.95
130814	Epic Day This and That Designer Series Paper	13.25 €/£9.95
131463	Remember This and That Rotary Stamp	6.95 €/£5.50
131271	Epic Day This and That Designer Stickers	5.95 €/£4.50
131269	Epic Day This and That Designer Washi Tape	5.95 €/£4.50

I stamped the title above with the Notable Alphabet and added floral embellishments stamped with the new special limited edition stamp set, Best of Flowers (a bargain at £13.95). This has been released to celebrate Stampin' Up!'s 25 year anniversary. I love how the sunflower coordinates with the 1-1/4" (3.2 cm) Scallop Circle punch (£14.25 127811)  making life so much easier for cutting and layering.

And one last thing for today, just to let you know I will have a stall this Saturday at the Crafty Fingers Craft Fayre in Newport (Holyrood Hall) from 12-4pm. I am taking along all my Stampin' Up! displays and information as well as a lot of crafty bits and pieces to sell. I am running this alongside my BIG crafty sale on Saturday morning.

And one last thing, Sam and I are now proud owners of this beast:

If you look close enough you'll see me sat in the front. We have been searching for the right motorhome for years and now we finally have one! I cannot even begin to explain how excited I am about this ;0) We're off on our first adventure this weekend to visit friends and attend a Dedication service. I am so scrapbooking this moment ;0)

Exciting New Product Line: This and That

Good morning and what lovely news I have to share with you today! A sneaky peak (and chance to order!) of a new product range from the new 2013-2014 Catalogue.

Introducing..... This and That!

 

This range is inspired by the Smash books which have been huge over the past couple of years. It brings together a love of pretty papers with true scrapbooking in the fashion we all loved as kids (cutting, glueing, sticking, collecting tickets and bits and bobs).

This new product range includes a fancy journal, rotary stamp, 3 rolls of washi tape (LOVE this!), 12 sheets of coordinating patterned papers and 4 sheets of stickers. All of these new products will be available in the new Catalogue launching July 1st but Stampin' Up! are giving you the chance to get your hands on them exclusively during May.

 

And even better if you want ALL 5 items you can buy the complete bundle at 15% discount. What a bargain!

With my love of scrapbooking and Stampin' Up! this was my absolute dream bundle of products. So as you can imagine, I was up till midnight waiting to put my preorder in. Now just counting down the days till my order arrives (and of course I will be sharing pictures and creations as soon as it is delivered!)

 

 This would be perfect for a general scrapbook for keeping gift tags, tickets and bits and bobs in. Or it could be used for scrapping a special holiday, special occasion or special memories.

 

I would be more than happy to chat to you about this fantastic new product line (as well as all of Stampin' Up!'s lovely other products!). Please drop me an email or give me a call for more info: poulton_sarah@yahoo.co.uk or 01983 609249 / 07830 343830. And please check out my Promotions tab above for more info on other special promotions I am running this month.

 

Here is more info on what is included in the bundle (click on the picture for more detailed info).



 

And finally to make up for the lack of a Try it Tuesday feature yesterday (my usual blogging time was taken up with my monthly scrapbooking class!) here is a layout we created yesterday.

This uses the fabulous Floral District Designer Series Paper coupled with the fabulous Circle Circus stamps. We also used the Delicate Doilies Sizzlets and Builder Brads to create the matching embellishments. The colour scheme for this layout was Rose Red and Rich Razzleberry. I love this super summery layout. I just need to add a title and it'll be perfect!

 



 

Thanks for popping by today. Please leave a comment so I can pop back and see your lovely crafty creations.
