Scallop Punch and Another Card...

Well I am really on a roll at the minute.... have made another card using the OLD hostess set Oh So Lovely.... and here it is..
As you will see it is another Happy Unbirthday card.... I have to be really careful coz I keep thinking Unhappy Birthday... and that wouldn't be funny would it... lol. Not sure I like the sentiment so may change that before giving it out.

So I used Barely Banana cardstock, masked with a post it note for the sun using the 1 1/4" punch and then using the sponge daubers I daubed Summer Sun over all of the card, next I sponged Pumpkin Pie onto the card leaving some of the Summer Sun showing and then finished it off using the Really Rust Ink around the edges. Next I stamped the image from Oh So Lovely in Black onto the picture, I coloured the little berries in red and then drew along the stalks with green, next I drew along the edges of the stalk with white to pop it slightly and then black to make the shadow on the other side. Printed a computer generated sentiment on to the card, and then mounted it onto matt gold cardstock, then basic black and last but not least pumpkin pie.. voila finished.

As I am expecting my first orders from the new catalogue in the next couple of days and most of my customers have ordered a scallop punch, I thought I would add this video clip from YouTube showing how to make your corners look good whilst using your scallop punch... unfortunately I couldn't find any Stampin Up ones (as they are new) but have found one for the Fiskars border punch, which does work as I have tried it, I am hoping the same thing will apply to the Stampin Up one... so have a watch, so you are all prepared for when they arrive....




Have a good day all xx

First Time I've Made One Of These Cards...

I've never had to make one of these cards before, personally I dont send them as I wouldn't be keen on receiving them either, dont know why, just one of those things, but I have been asked to make 2 of them, so go gentle on me as this is my first attempt.



Again the light was not too good, but the colours are Very Vanilla, Always Artichoke and a small bit of Bravo Burgundy, also Bravo Burgundy ribbon and the image was from a hostess set in the last catalogue called Oh So Lovely...

Which brings me to this weeks news.... order over £25 of goods from the catalogue before Sunday and I will post them to you for free.. nada, zilch... however much you order... and if you have a really really big order, (over £150) you can also enjoy a free Level 1 Hostess Set from the catalogue and an additional £15 of free goods of your choice also from the catalogue... can't be bad!! The above offer is for UK only, sorry no international orders... So take a look at our new scallop edge punch, or the textured 12 x 12 cardstock, and all the yummy new stamp sets, including 3 which have 20% off if you buy over £20 worth of stash... which are Crazy For Cupcakes (Page 32), Birthday Best (Page 33) and Cheer and Wishes (Page 58)...

What are you all doing this weekend? I will be busy making little freebie kits for my 2nd 10 Month Club, my 1st 10 Month Club received these last month... check the right hand side to find out more about joining my 3rd 10 Month Club...

Have a good weekend whatever you do xx
