Tall & Elegant Easel Card

Hi Everybody,

Today sees the launch of a new collection that I hope you will enjoy as much as I have. It is the Tall & Elegant Collection 

With this set I have made an easel card and if you have the DL Complete Card & Box set then you will be able to make a beautiful box to add the card to.

Without the flowers on it would fit into a Dl envelope but I couldn't resist adding them in to make the card even more special.

Always a sucker for the flowers.

This video will show you how I made the Easel Card and don't forget you can have an extra 10% off your order if you become a 
Craft Stash VIP member.

The little gemstones in the centre of the flowers are self adhesive but to make doubly sure they stayed put I added them with a spot of hot glue.

I think they are from the Range and I got loads in the pack and they look so much prettier than the original centres.

Red was a diversion also as it is not a colour I use that often. If you follow my blog then you will know my favourites are the pastel shade of pink, blue and turquoise.

Still a change is as good as a rest so they say. So I hope you like the card.

More tomorrow ...

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.

Sneaky Peak

Hi Everybody,

On the 6th September I will be releasing a new collection named the Tall & Elegant and this is a sneaky peak of what is in the set.

I have teamed the panel and the labels with the Simply Dots embossing folder using a colour that I don't use very often. 

But the finished result is very fresh and pretty and I really hope you will like the whole collection.

I will add more photos and videos once the collection is launched this week so please come back and see what is in it for your delight.

More tomorrow ...
