A blueprint for the coming Season, my 800th post and a giveaway!

Yesterday I got my inky mitts on a full set of the new Seasonal Distress Stains,
and of course I just had to have a play! Take a set of Tim's new Blueprint mini stamps, and all the colours of the rainbow, an Artistic Stamper notebook stamp for the background,  a large Manila tag size #10, and some foam tape, and voila a colourful rendition of a Christmassy/Autumn tag!

I have also noticed that this is my 800th post....who would have thought it? So I do believe a giveaway is in order and what better to giveaway away that 3 of these new Distress Stains! Hands up who would like them? Leave me a comment, and I will pick a winner early next week :)
Hope you have a very creative day

Foiled by the time!

I have failed miserably in trying to post on my blog...time is just running away with me, and if I was honest with you, the fact that I am surrounded by beautiful stash, and gorgeous stamps makes it harder. At the weekend, I got to play with gilding flakes, and glue and Dylusions Sprays, and stamps.. demoing at The Big Stamp & Scrapbooking Show! We had a blast, even though the floor was more than exceptionally hard, (feet were sore), but I love the shows, and I even went shopping! LOL.. Here are my wonderful helpers...Kat and the man with the till! sorry board!!

I thought I would show you one of my tags which I started, but needs finishing ( or what do you think?!). Sprayed with Dylusions, gilded within an inch of it life, stamped with Journaling words, and check out the size. it is a GIANT tag..they are the new love of my life! LOL

Loving these metallics!

I just love it when new products hit the shelves! These brand new Metallic Distress stains are a definite must have! We have them in the shop, and on the website, and of course I just had to try them out :) What girl could say no?!
I did my favourite technique with them, and just splatted them onto a tag, added them to stamps from the Ephemera set, and a few of the Idea-ology mini cogs, and because they are splats they go just perfectly with our Creative Team challenge this month too!
See I have "checked", "fitted", and made sure they were "original" for you!!!
Check out the photo, as the craft Tag behind are the size #10 and the JUMBO tag is a Manila tag size #12...they are humongous!!!

If you want to see what else arrived from Ranger check out our new products page.
Hope you have a creative evening
