Birthday Birds

Now that Christmas is over and School is back tomorrow (can you hear the screams of joy??) its time to get back into my working schedule again and get back to creating which I’ve been doing a bit of late and I must say its great to be creating again.  While I needed the break I realise now how much I missed it – I do love my job 🙂

One of the things that has been neglected of late is the lovely little Summer Mini Catalogue. Its jam packed full of new stamp sets, designer series paper, accessories, Big Shot Dies and a new Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. If you dont have a copy please contact me today and I’ll pop one in the post for you or drop one off if you’re local.

One of the gorgeous new Stamp Sets in this Catalogue is the ‘Aviary’ stamp set (p13). It has 9 stamps in the sets for just $35.95 (clear mount) or $44.95 (wood mount) – thats less than $5 per stamp for the wood mount and even less if you buy the clear mount!

Its one set my teen daughter loves and when she was going to a birthday day out with a friend yesterday she asked for a card using that set and I must say I had lots of fun using it!

Here’s the card she gave to Stephanie …

I wanted something quick and simple so I could then use it as a Stamp A Stack card and this one fits the bill dont you think?

I really liked this one but wanted to show the other stamps in the set too and I love the stand in it so I then made this ..

Can you tell Caitie loves the owl?  This one I only used half the ‘stand’ for the blue cage otherwise it would have been too tall so I just inked as high as I wanted it then stamped the cage on top. So easy with the new clear mount stamps I must say!

Now if you’d like to make one of these cards or even several why not contact me today to book in your Workshop or Stamp A Stack.

So what’s the difference between a Workshop and a Stamp A Stack?

Workshop – a Workshop is a free Demonstration for you and your guests and I will demonstrate a couple of products and projects and everyone at the Workshop gets to make one project to keep and take home. Approximate time of a Workshop is 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Stamp A Stack – you and your guests get to make 8 cards for just $20 per person. Approximate time for a Stamp A Stack is 2 1/2 to 3 hours – depending on the number attending.
