Stampin' Up! Buy It whilst you can!

Ooh the pressure is officially on! There are now only EIGHT days left to order from the Stampin' Up! Spring Mini Catalogue. Do you have everything you want or need yet?

Do you realise that after 30th April you won't be able to order the Build a Cupcake stamp set or the matching Cupcake Builder Punch? Worse still - we'll also wave goodbye to the fabby 2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch.

I've made a card using all of these products as I love them so much. My card is cased from a gorgeous swap I received yesterday from the lovely Ciara, a fellow demo.

 I've also used the vibrant Fruit and Flowers designer papers. These will also be going at the end of the month but if you place an order of £45 or more on the goodies you want, you can get this set of papers for FREE! That straight away saves you nearly £10.

It's really easy to order Stampin' Up! products from me, just phone me on 07748 707845 or email me bluejellystampin@sky.com and let me know what you'd like. There are lots of payment options so you can choose the one that suits you.

Please don't wait until 1st May - you'll be too late!

Hugs

Stampin' Up! Create a Cupcake or Four

Ooh school inset days....It's not been too bad. Zac came with Blake and I to toddler speech therapy this morning and he was so good. He helped Blake and sat quietly when I asked him too. Having said that I think it might have distracted Blake a little having his big brother there!!

Anyhoo, I've made a few sticky note books, although I have depleted my stash of mini pens so I'd better pop and get some tomorrow!

I love making these and I love that Stampin' Up! makes life so easy for me by having stamps and punches that coordinate to save me all that cutting out! I've used the Cupcake Builder Punch and Create a Cupcake stamp set.  My colur combo is Pool Party, Regal Rose, So Saffron and Certainly Celery. My inspiration came from the colours of the sticky notes themselves.

Here's a close up:

When the weather is nice like today, I've started taking my light box outside to get the best pictures I can. Wish every day was like today. I've used matching card, designer papers and inks and also added some Chocolate Chip designer paper for the cupcake bases. The Scallop Circle is the new  2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch in the Stampin' Up! Spring Mini Catalogue, only available until the end of April so don't waste time getting yours.

I did cut out the ribbon bows by hand as that's not a part of the punch - how I wish it was. The little flower is from Itty Bitty Punch set and I've finished it off with a large Self Adhesive Pearl.

Now I need to open the patio doors and let my boys loose on the outside world so we all get some fresh air.

I'm popping these in a challenge - over at Cupcake Craft Challenge this week Louise has set the theme of 'going dotty'.  The DT have come up with some fab stuff.

Stampin' Up! Create a Cupcake

Can't show you what I've been making today as not yet decided if I'm doing it as a class first or not! So instead I thought I'd share a card I made a while ago but haven't blogged yet. If you haven't seen the Create a Cupcake stamp set or it's corresponding Cupcake Builder Punch in the Stampin' Up! Spring Mini Catalogue - where have you been? I made this yummy card using both:

My colour combo is So Saffron, Calypso Coral, Pretty in Pink and Wisteria Wonder. I stamped the cupcake images and then punched them out (the ribbon is cut by hand though). Next I embossed a piece of So Saffron card using one Designer Frames Embossing Folders and then carefully cut around the outsdide. After sticking down the cupcake I added an In Colour Patterned Brad.

Do you like my heart border? It's made using the small heart punch. Can't loiter as the boys have just got home from their Grandparents and it's time to get them ready for bed!

Creating lots of cupcakes

My friends Hubby turns 40 this weekend and she asked me to make a card for him from her. She's not seen it yet so I hope she'll like it! I have used 40 candles and 40 cupcakes!!

It's one of the biggest cards I've made, each square is just shy of 6". I've used Night of Navy, Old Olive, Tempting Turquoise and Pacific Point for the combo.

It wasn't easy to get a photo of this at all. On the front I've used Big Shot Simple Numbers dies teamed up with stamps from Create a Cupcake, Party this Way and For My Family.

I lurve these cupcake stamps and even more so as they come with a coordinating Cupcake Bulder Punch so no cutting out to do! The punch is so versatile and you can make so manyt hings with it - more about that another day though.

As it's so big I needed to make a box envelope to pop it in. The new 2 3/8" Scallop Circle punch is a great size for using as a tag.

Must go, I'm in the middle of making swaps for Jules' training tomorrow!
