Blooming with Kindness Forever and Always

This is a card I made for Jacque Williams (nee Pederson) wedding card I would love to have been there but alas I didn't get to the wedding as I wasn't well .  I had purchased the Blooming With Kindness stamp set and new it was the perfect set to use. I saw a card using Crumb Cake and Early Espresso in this style (Fun Stampin with Margaret) so I changed the colours and tied the bow differently. I was very pleased with how it turned out.

Stamp sets: Blooming with Kindness, Loving Thoughts

Ink: Perfectly Plum

Cardstock: Elegant Eggplant, Very Vanilla

Other: Apothecary Accents Framelits, Delicate Designs Folders,

 Large scallop Edgelit, Perfect Plum Taffeta Ribbon, Stampin Sponge,

 Tombow Adhesive

The Fabulous New Stampin' Up! Trimmer

The new Stampin' Up! Trimmer has  arrived I have had mine to use for a couple of weeks now and it is fabulous.

·         Features of the All-New Stampin’ Trimmer: : item 129722; $59.95

·         An extra-wide 15.9 cm cutting base and an extended 39 cm ruler

·         The extra-wide cutting base provides a large work area and is marked in 4 mm increments, allowing for small measurements.

·         The right-side grid helps you measure and cut very thin strips.

·         The extended cutting arm has a stabilizing leg to provide a sturdy and steady cutting surface for longer cuts. 

·         When fully extended, the extended cutting arm sits flush with the trimmer base, providing more accurate and consistent measurements across the entire surface. .

·         The base has nonskid feet, which keeps the Stampin’ Trimmer securely in place on your work area.

·         A full 30.5 cm cutting and scoring track

·         The extra-long cutting track has space at the top and bottom so you don’t have to take the cutting and scoring blades out when you’re not using them. 

·         The cutting track locks in place for secure storage or transport. 

·         The hook on the scoring and cutting blade handles keeps the handles stable so the cuts are as straight as possible.

·         The precision tip on the cutting blade allows you to pinpoint precisely where you’re cutting.

·         The point on the side of each handle shows you where the blade will cut, making it easy to see exactly where your cuts and scores will begin.

·         Storage compartment under base

·         The storage compartment holds scoring and cutting tools such as a Bone Folder, Simply Scored Stylus, extra scoring and cutting blades and even business cards. 

·         Separate compartments within the storage compartment keep your tools organised, and the clear cover makes it easy to see what you’ve stored.

Contact me if you would like to purchase our new Trimmer as I will be putting in my last order for the

year on Thursday 8th December to ensure your order arrives on time.

Flowers Just For You

I found the inspiration for this card from one made by Michelle Clark, I have used the same colours but haven't added the Bakers Twine or Bitty Banner as I wanted to keep it fairly simple so that I could add a Sentiment and or Butterfly later which means I can use the card for any occasion. It is very faint in this photo but I have used an Aqua painter to add Pool Party ink to represent water in the jar.
It just goes to show that you don't have to use the Perfectly preserved stamp set just for a preserving card or as a label on a jar.

Stamp set: Perfectly Preserved

Ink: Gumball Green, Pale Plum, Pool Party, Wisteria Wonder, Versamark

Cardstock: Naturals White, Wisteria Wonder  

Other: White Embossing Powder, Embossing Buddy, Heat Tool, Aqua Painter, Dimensionals, Tombow Adhesive, Paper-Piercing Tool, Stampin' Pierce Mat
