Not long now until the new catalogue is live for ordering from. Still not got one? Contact me and I will post one out to you (or hand deliver if you’re close by).
This also means that time is running out on retiring products….May 31st deadline for placing an order, and as I am away from Thursday this week, there really isn’t much time left.
At this weeks Coffee and a Card, we made a lovely card using the retiring Flower Shop stamps and retiring Pansy punch, but used the new in colors (available in the early release right now). The leaf embossing folder gave it a lovely textured back ground , add a bit of bling and voila!!
Card number two used the same ink selection, and this time the Happy BIrthday Gorgeous stamp set, the Birthday Wishes for You stamp set and the Balloon Punch
Remember if you want the sets to make the first card, you only have til May 31st!
And finally, I wont be around for Coffee and a Card this next Monday (May 28th), but dont worry, my lovely friend Paula is still running it for me! She’s a super talented lady…pop along and have some fun!
The second Monday each month, our Coffee and a Card focuses on Christmas. I’m also still using discontinued DSP (Designer Series Paper) Be Merry….available while stocks last until the end of May, and I also used an old favourite of mine stamp set, unfortunately no longer available..Merry Mice. The six ladies who joined me this week made this cute little pop up card;
and then we made a card using a bit of paper-folding, which proved far more challenging than I expected! Again we used the discontinued DSP, and the sentiment this time was from the also no longer available set Christmas Quilt.
But there is more to life than discontinued product! I have been busy making projects with the pre sell items I bought after April’s convention in Telford, ready for a catalogue launch party in June…details to follow as I havent got a venue yet! The new catalogue is available now to view. If you would like a copy please contact me

This morning I watched a video tutorial of an open stepper card, which prompted me to ‘have a go’. The tutorial was in inches, but I prefer to use cm’s and although some of the measurements were converted, not all of them were. For starters the card base was not a half A4, so as I don’t like wasting little bits from the edges, I have adapted it to metric, thus using half an UK A4 sheet to make it.
And this is the result!
I used Thick whisper white for the card base as this is nice and sturdy, and the discontinued (from the end of May) Elegant Eggplant card stock and ink. The black and white DSP (Designer Series Paper) is from The Petal Passion series (also discontinued from end of May).
The Yellow flowers are die cut in Daffodil Delight with Garden Green stems, both from the Bouquet Bunch Framelits and the sentiment and stamped flowers are from the Beautiful Bouquet Stampset. The ovals are die cut, but in this instance not with Stampin’ Up! product (as I have yet to buy them).
Bank Holiday Mondays Coffee and a Card will involve making this card. If you fancy coming along, then please do…. The Mallard, Westwood Lakes, Boston UK! (the original Boston!).
Thanks to Jan B Cards for the idea.
Cant make it? If you would like the measurements, please contact me
