Bottle Labels!

Before we get into the blog post today I want to remind you about the retiring list – I know that the Designer Series Paper I have used below is on this list – it may no longer be available, and I’m sorry if it’s not – but go and check out the bargains before its too late!


I regularly give bottles of wine away as gifts – particularly at the moment where I have some wonderful people running around doing fantastic things in preparation for the wedding (really not long to go now!) But a bottle of wine on its own is boring, so I had to put my own stamp (get it!) on it!

Stampin' Up! UK wine gift tag

They are so simply to make (check out the video below!) and use a tiny piece of card stock, and an even smaller piece of Designer Series Paper, but they make such a difference to a boring bottle.

These ones use the 2014-2016 In Colours Blackberry Bliss and Hello Honey, and the now sadly retiring Moonlight Designer Series Paper stack. I really am sad to see this paper go, BUT I have seen the next Stampin’ Up! annual catalogue, and I have to say, the papers that are replacing Moonlight are AWESOME! Actually the whole catalogue is fantastic! Want to see it now? Join my team, and get to add some sneak peaks to your Starter Kit!

The stamps featured here are from You Plus Me, which really is Valentines day themed, however, I think the sentiments work well here (after all, that bottle of wine, that one, that one was mine!)

Measurements:

Card stock – 20 x 7 cm, score at 6.5 cm on the long side, and use a 1 3/8″ circle punch to make a whole in the smaller side.

Designer Series Paper – 13 x 6.5 cm

Valentines Seam Bag

Valentines isn’t as big a holiday in the UK as it is in the USA – in fact it barely registers at all. I don’t think I have ever been out for a Valentines dinner, there are two reasons for that; first restaurants appear to increase their prices on this one night of the year, and that I have been at work for most of the Valentines since James and I have been together (I’m on nights this year, passion killer or what!)

So, instead of going all out, we tend to have a quite night in with a nice dinner during the week. This year I have a couple of little things to make this evening a little more special, including this little table gift.

Stampin' Up! UK stacked with love Valentines treat bags

This bag uses the Stacked with Love Designer Series Paper Stack, a lovely selection of love themed papers in that lovely 6 1/2 x 4 1/2″ size, perfect for card fronts (and cute little bags!)

This DSP comes bundled with the You Plus Me stamp set, and I featured both as part of my February Techniques class.

Measurements:

DSP – 6 1/2 x 4 1/2″

Score the long side at 2 3/8″ and 4 1/8″

Score on the short side at 1 3/8 and 3 1/8″

I have also used the Sweetheart Punch, You Plus Me and Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack.

Be Mine…..

Before we get into the rest of the post I just want to remind you that today is the last day to book onto my February Technique Class if you plan on attending in person (you have until Friday if you are choosing the virtual option). You can see what we are making HERE

 

Right, Be mine!

I just love this stamp set – You Plus Me – so much in fact that it is my featured stamp set for February! Valentines here I come!

Stampin' Up! UK You Plus Me valentines Be mine

This card uses a piece of the Stacked with Love Designer Series Paper stack too! By happy coincidence the stamp set and the paper feature a very similar heart shape. So I stamped the heart 5 times on a piece of Whisper White in Calypso Coral ink, and punched them out with the heart punch from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack. Now this heart doesn’t fit perfectly but, its close enough, it just leaves some of the inky bits behind!

The hearts are popped up on dimensionals, as is the sentiment – from the same stamp set, punched out with the Extra Large Oval. Seeing as this is a very dark card, black cardstock and black designer series paper, I stamped the sentiment in Stazon ink, the blackest black ink I own!

The card was missing something at this point, and I have to admit putting it to one side. But I very quickly pulled it back out and added a trio of jewels. Pefect!

I just wanted to pop up today to let you know about my February Technique Class.

Stampin' Up! UK February Technique Class Slider Card Valentines

I hold monthly classes from my home at the beginning of every month, and this month (seeing as its almost Valentines day!) I thought we would make some love themed cards.

This class uses the You Plus Me Stamp and Designer Series Paper Stack Bundle (found on page 5 of the Stampin’ Up! Spring Summer Catalogue). I love this stamp set, it features a number of cute little images as well as larger sentiments, and the DSP stack is super cute!

As part of the class we will be making 3 cards, including one special fancy fold card! as well as a sweet little gift bag perfect for gift cards or small chocolates, using lots of techniques including heat embossing!

The cost of the class is £10, or £28 if you want the stamps and DSP, and is available either in person or virtually. Everyone will get access to both written and video instructions of all the cards and projects for the month too!

Booking for this class closes on the 26th of January 2015 at midnight for those attending in person, and on the 31st of January for those attending virtually, so grab your place today!
