In preparation for the new catalogue launch in a couple of weeks, I thought I would have a full craft room, tidy up, thinking I would have it all over in an evening, I started last Friday, and it finished Last night.
'AArrrrghhh' you scream....she has been tidying for nearly a week...SIX whole days???? Well no.....I kept getting kind of sidetracked.....phone calls, trips to the post office, mounting stamps, trying out new ink pads, melting stuff.......well embossing powder in a pan, all I can say is that was one distraction that didn't help the tidying!!
Anyway last night, the desks were clear and I had a bit of a play, I have opened a couple of things from my 'Sneak Peak' Order, and teamed them with two of my 'go to...never fails to please...kinda stamps' that are retiring at the end of the month.
Page 61 Friendly Item No:110528
40% off the original price!!) Now £10.17
Page 112 Flower Accent Item No:117686 £7.95
I can't believe that these two items are still in stock, and even though I say it all the time, you do get so much rubber for your money, with the 'Friendly' stamp...
it will easily cover a whole card front!! 

To get the text on to the 'Flower accent' SU stamp, I did a bit of kissing........and no, it wasn't with the Cute Mr UPS or even Johnnie!! This is a legitimate stamping technique!!
And the colour combo is something to swoon over too...'Basic Black', 'Whisper White', 'Basic Grey' & 'oooo' well at this moment in time, I can't tell you about the other two....
All I did was ink up the solid flower image in the coloured ink........
I then had the huge 'Friendly' SU stamp, waiting on the desk top, ready inked in 'Basic Black'.....
I took the flower stamp and 'Kissed' it to the ready inked, rubber text of friendly....
and then I stamped the image down....and 'hey presto'....



you get lovely detail and interest on your solid rubber stamps!!
