Au Revoir my Little Froggies

Come 1st October there is a NEW Stampin' Up! Catalogue and I can tell you I'm sooo excited! This year has been a fantastic one for Stampin' Up! in the UK and although it was all so new to me back in February, I love their products so much for quality, originality and of course co-ordination. Plus everything is all in one catalogue! Do you know I've popped into Hobbycraft on the odd occasion and when I see an aisle of their rubber stamps, it does nothing for me now. The reason for that is it's just a row of stamps - nothing matches, nothing grabs me and the prices are quite unbelievable too! If I see someone browsing I sooo want to ask them if they're interested in a workshop so they can try before they buy and to show them how amazing Stampin' Up! is. Of course I never have, but I know they would be hooked.... if only. So with a new catalogue we also get a Retirement List to make way for more NEW and wonderful stamps and accessories. The retirement list is effective from 1st September and once these sets are gone, they are well and truly gone. There is an added bonus though.......these sets have been discounted so bargains galore!!! My beloved 'Unfrogettable' stamp set is going - I shall miss him as it's my favourite set if you hadn't noticed but having seen a few little sneaks of the new catalogue I can forgive SU! for taking him away from me. (Incase you want to order him he's been discounted from £25.95 to £23.95) The full Retired List is here and you know where I am if you want anything - just drop me an email. I'm off to drown my sorrows over froggie now....

Another Frog

I can't help it - I love the Unfrogettable stamp set - he's so cute! And of course the Cutie Pie Patterned Papers (I'm on my 2nd pack) match so well but then everything does with Stampin' Up!

I also made this little pouch which is excellent as a gift filled with sweets. I used more Cutie Pie Papers with Certainly Celery and Real Red colours to match.

All the Patterned Paper packs are on offer for August. Buy three packs and get one free! Only trouble is chosing which one's to have. - I love them all!! :)

Gift Box

Ok so at long last I've made something that I can actually show you. It's a very cute little box and inside there are 10 thank you notes with envelopes. I used Seeing Spots stamp set along with Certainly Celery and Rose Red Designer papers and matching cardstock, ribbon and inks.

I'll be back later to post two more projects.... the chimney sweep has just arrived!

Crafts Beautiful = Free Catalogue

It's been quite awhile since I've posted but life has been sooo busy!! There's been holidays and birthdays and plenty of days out with this glorious weather.Anyway, I digress, in the September issue of Crafts Beautiful (which is out now) there is a 'FREE' Stampin'Up! Catalogue! How fantastic is that!!!! The catalogues are normally £5.95 so it's worth getting the mag just for that. My offer to anyone this month is that if you can't find the mag with the free catalogue in, email me and I will send you one for free! (Limited stock available). Now that is a bargain. And if you want to place an order for these amazing products or just have a general enquiry, please email me at jodumbleton@aol.co.uk Also Stampin' Up! have an offer for August of buy three get one free on all designer paper packs.
