Stampin' Up! UK Easter Sale-a-brationThe sentiment is taken from Indescribable Gift, punched with the Decorative Label punch. I then also punched a label from Hello Honey Cardstock (the same colour as the card base), cut it in half and attached it on either side of the sentiment. Finishing the card with some loops of Early Espresso Bakers Twine.

Mini Milk Carton

I was away last week visiting some family in Bristol, and we popped out for a loaf of bread. The shop most local to my grandparents is Lidl, and I have to admit, I have never been through the door (I usual opt to drive to the nearest big name supermarket up the road), but for a loaf of bread we decided we’d give it a try. Well, it may have been the most expensive loaf of bread I have ever bought! Because I found the Easter Chocolates!

One of the many things I love about Stampin’ Up! is the colour selection, and when I spotted these eggs they called out to me in Stampin’ Up! colours – Pichachio Pudding! Crisp Cantaloupe! So Saffron!

Stampin' Up! UK Easter Egg Milk Carton

These boxes could hold way more than the 3 eggs I have put in, but I stupidly only bought one pack! Silly me!

Measurements:

Cardstock – 5 7/8 x 8 1/4″ (14.8 x 21 cm)

Score on the long side at 2, 4, 6, and 8″ (5, 10, 15, and 20 cm)

Score on the short side at 2, 4 1/4 and 5 1/2″ (5, 10.5, and 14 cm)

Indescribably Easter

Its not long now until Easter, and so this week I have a whole week of Easter themed projects all lined up and ready for you!

Stampin' Up! UK Indescribable gift Easter

This is a really simple card, and actually the camera hasn’t picked up the stunning details of the glitter I have added to the centres of the flowers from the lovely Indescribable Gift stamp set, stamped here in Pool Party. I dotted the 2-way glue pen around the flowers, and added some Dazzling Diamonds Glitter

I love this stamp, it’s so beautiful just as a line image – here its been coloured sparingly with the Stampin’ Write Markers in Pink Pirouette, Blushing Bride, and Pear Pizzazz.

Gorgeous

What crafty projects have you planned for Easter?

Sale-a-bration on Sunday

Ok, so I will admit I had sort of forgotten about Sale-a-bration on Sunday this week! So I apologise for the quality of the photo, but it is all a little bit last minute!

This week has been a little crazy round here – a long overdue visit to the grandparents at the beginning of the week, followed by a manic two days in the office, wedding stationary consultations, fabulous one-to-one training with my wonderful upline, a friends wedding, and a craft fair (today) has seen me slightly out of the game. I have had to cancel my Crafty Crop this month, as I just can’t be in two places at once. I’m so sorry, and but I have made a bonus blog project next week to make up for it!

So, card for today. Today is the very last card for Sale-a-bration on Sunday! I cannot believe how quickly the last 3 months have gone! you still have a week to get your Sale-a-bration orders in, and next week I shall round up all the things I have made with the lovely Sale-a-bration goodies this year

Stampin' Up! UK Sale-a-bration Irresistibly yoursI could not let Sale-a-bration end without using the Irresistibly Yours Designer Series Paper one last time! This time, Its sponged with Pear Pizzazz Ink, and the stamped using the Best Day Ever Stamp set.

I love the layers under the sentiment too – Decorative Label, Modern Label and then the sentiment on a 1 3/4″ circle

A vision in green!

Thank You Something Lacy!

When I’m creating I find that I’ll use the same products a few times on a few projects, then usually when I’m writing them all up for you guys, I split them up into different weeks. But I just had to share these cards with you!

I’ve been loving using the Something Lacy background stamp – I know it’s in the Wedding section of the Spring/Summer catalogue, but think outside of the box with me for a while. Although I love it stamped in subtle colours like Pink Pirouette and Sahara Sand, I wanted something a little brighter for my customer Thank You cards this month … are these bright enough for you?

Stampin' Up! UK Something Lacy In Colours Thank You

They use the latest selection of In-Colours; Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey, Lost Lagoon, Mossy Meadow and Tangelo Twist.

Stampin' Up! UK something lacy blackberry bliss Stampin' Up! UK something lacy hello honey

 

The Thank You comes from the Sale-a-bration set Simply Wonderful – I am really going to miss it! It had featured on quite a number of projects recently – Don’t forget Sale-a-bration ends on the 31st March, order before then to get one of these lovelys delivered to your post box!
