Q & A

 Is it difficult to mount the labels on the new Clear Mount Stamps?

No, it's not difficult at all!  It's a slightly different process than the traditional wood mount stamps, but you'll get the hang of it no problem.
 
I did make a short video tutorial for my customers to ensure you were all comfortable with the new product - especially for those whom I've not seen personally in the last few weeks.
 
Please find the video here. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
 

 

Cottage Garden Gift Set
Cottage Garden Bundle
Dear Stampers, 
 
It's getting super cold here in Auckland!  Great for cozy evenings of stamping, though.  I hope you are all keeping warm and snuggly as the days get shorter.
 
April was a great month!  I got out to many of you to show you some of the new product - that was fun!  However, there is still SOOO much more to play with!  My trouble is never not having ideas - it's more of accomodating everyone's requests and fitting it all in!  :) 
 
Please check out May's DIY Class - a Cottage Garden Gift Bundle.  Perfect for Mother's Day, but also perfect for any occasion!  You will make a pillow box for chocolates, learn to stamp on a candle, and make a matching note card to finish it off.  All items use the new Cottage Garden stamp set and the new colour Rich Razzleberry.  Yummy!!  Check it out for prices and options!

  I hope you've also all seen the new mini catalogue now.  You don't want to miss this - The Big Shot, a  new punch style, clear mount stamps, new 12x12 colours, and lots more!  Email me for your copy or download from here. 
  
May marks the last month for my current Guest Artist team.  Several have expressed sadness at the time already ending!  It's been fun - I enjoy so much involving YOU in my blog.  I'm now taking indications of interest to join me for the June-November period.  You will be given materials each month and are asked to create a sample featuring the product.Email me if you are interested in playing with us!
 
We now have firm dates for two different stamp camps later this year!  Please check it out in the Upcoming Events section below and save the date!

Mixing Elements
 
 I've fallen back in love with Vintage.
 
Not that I ever fell out of love; I just forgot how much I loved it.
 
The new Winter Mini Catalogue has a great deal of product offerings to compliment this style.  The above layout uses the Vintage Vogue and the Little Angel stamp sets, both new ones in the Winter Mini.
 
I think my favourite look ever is combining Vintage style with opposing elements, such as with pastel colours and bling.  This is such a great look - the contrast of elements.
 
Try it on your next layout - mix masculine and feminine elements, old and new, whimsical and sophisticated, etc.  And feel free to email me a pic of what you create - I love to see what you are up to!
