Retired List

The list for Retired Stamp Sets and Accessories from Stampin' Up! 2007 catalogue is now available. Yes the new catalogue is on it's way so if there is anything on this list that you really wanted you better hurry as this is your last chance to order these products as they are going fast. You do have until 31/3/08 or until it runs out, which ever happens first.

Email me on karen@borderline.com.au or leave me a message here and I will send you the list in a pdf format.

I know all these posts and cards in one hit. Below are two more cards using the set Bud Basics and the coordinating Stampin Around Wheel Basic Outline.

I have CASED this card from one of the other Demonstrators (Linda Higgins) and changed the colours, some extra shading and reversed it. The cardstock used is Barely Banana, Sage Shadow and Close to Cocoa. Inks used are Chocolate Chip for the Wheel, So Saffron, Sage Shadow and Close to Cocoa.

This card uses the 'Bud Basics' stamp set again and the saying is from 'Lots of Thoughts' one of the FREE stamp sets again from the Sale-A-Bration campaign. The cardstock is Sage Shadow (yes it is one of my favourite colours at the moment!), Creamy Caramel, Bashful. The ribbon used is from Ribbon Originals 'Seaside'. These ribbons are gorgeous and so easy to use you just need to utilise the colours that are in the ribbon and your card goes perfectly!

Finally, back again!!

Okay so I did mention that I was not sure how often I would be updating my blog! I did expect to do it way more than not at all, sorry! Here are a few cards that I have made recently.

These few are for kids birthdays that I have done for Stamp-A-Stacks where you make 8 cards for $10 - please let me know if you are interested in having one of these yourself or if you would be keen to come to my place on the Central Coast to have one as I am organising some times and dates to hold some here and also some in Sydney for those of you that are down there.

Stamp set - By Land



Cardstock - Sage Shadow, Bashful Blue and Cranberry Crisp



Inks - Chocolate Chip and Cranberry Crisp



Accessories - Ribbon from 'Ribbon Originals - Seaside'






This next one is using the stamp set 'Bugs & Kisses' and it is one of my favourite kids sets! This card was a quick and easy one, okay except for the cutting out of the actual bug I would not be so padantic next time around it would have a smooth body! Cardstock used is Whisper White, Night of Navy and Bashful Blue. The ink is Night of Navy and the bug was coloured in using an Aqua Painter and the Watercolour Wonder Crayons.

This card could be used for an older or younger female and is one of Stampin' Up's cards and is only slightly changed from the original. The stamp set is one of the FREE sets available through the Sale-A-Bration campaign which ends this week - Birthday Whimsy, so if you liked any of the free sets you need to put through an order for $100 to qualify to recieve one of four sets available for FREE! The cardstock used is bashful Blue, Pretty In Pink and Close to Cocoa. The inks used are Chocolate Chip and Pretty in Pink. The ribbon is Grosgrain Pink and a white Gel Pen.
