Twinkling H20's + Papercraft Society Advent Calendar

 Hi Everybody,

Do you remember these  ... Twinkling H20's ?  Did you buy them ? ...
They were around years ago and they are something I have not heard about for a long time.
I made this video eleven years ago when they were very popular and I used them a lot. 

But other things come onto the market and then the older ones fall out of fashion. I must admit I haven't used these for a very long time. But having said that I do like the effect they gave and so I may have to dig them out again and play with them once more.

Here is the video using this product and it may just spark your interest in them once more. 

             

The storage solution was handy too and kept all the little pans of paint safe and easy to store in the craft room. 

Papercraft Society Advent Calendar 

I am adding a P.S. to this post as today sees the launch of the Craft Stash Advent Calendar to VIP members only as yet. It is an amazing box of goodies at an amazing price and Lou has done a video to tell you what it is all about. 

          

Joining the VIP membership gives you an extra 10% off the price and the postage is free for the UK and here is the link for you to become a    CRAFT STASH VIP

Papercraft Society Box 6

Hi Everybody,

So it's my turn again to bring you the latest box from the Papercraft Society and this Box 6. It is on sale now at

  Craft Stash Papercraft Society

I am really happy with this collection and the curved die is a beautiful addition to your designs.

The video will show you what is in the box and there will be exclusive videos for members of the monthly subscription.

But I hold my hand up to two mistakes in the video 

1. The ribbon is yellow polka dots and not white

2. There is a yellow polka dot card included too

So you can smack my hand now for being naughty !!

I hope you enjoy this one as much as you enjoyed the first box. 

You can take out a monthly sub to be sure of getting your box delivered to your door each month

Each month the designer is different and the contents of each box will be put together by them for your delight

It will help you to build up your own stash with quality items including inks, papers, card stock and embellishments.

Happy Crafting

Papercraft Society Box 2 - Helen Griffin

Hi Everybody,

This month is the launch of  Papercraft Society Box Two from Helen Griffin and this is what your box will look like.

Beautiful deep tones and the papers and card inside the box will match the theme.

There are more hybrid inks to add to your collection and a metallic pen in case you wanted to add words of your own.  If you prefer sentiments then you will have some foiled ones that you can add to your projects.

The dies will help you to create a really pretty gift bag and all the components that you need are bridged together. 

You will need to snip them apart and then store them on a magnetic sheet so that you don't lose the small ones in the kit.

You can make pretty backgrounds with the stamps or simply add a stamped sentiment.

For my gift bag I used the papers, card and ribbon from the kit and the bag is quite a good size for you to add your gift too.

I used the foiled sentiments and backed them onto some more of the pink card and added it to the gift bag with foam tape underneath the layers.

I threaded the ribbon though the top as handles for my bag and then added some pearl strings for a little extra.

My final embellishment was to snip the legs off some of the crystal brads that are in the kit and glue them to the front of the bag.

Line it with tissue paper and add your gift and it is then ready for you to give with love to your recipient.

Thanks Helen for a really pretty kit

Papercraft Society Full Reveal ...

Hi Everybody,

Craft Stash have decided to put out a video to tell you all what is in the Papercraft Society Box, and as you may already know I am the first designer to be featured in this monthly kit.

Janette has done a fantastic job showing it to you and if you ordered your subscription then I hope you wont be too upset that it is being shown early. But we have had so many enquiries about what is inside that the video was done. Some people you see don't like surprises !!

Now if you do like surprises then you don't have to view this so either way the choice is yours .... but whatever you decide I don't think you will be disappointed 

Have fun with your Papercraft Society Box when it arrives and don't forget to show us what you have done with it. And most of all thank you for buying it without knowing what was in it or who was the designer of the kit in the first place
