Craft Telly

Good morning

We are currently in Doncaster at the Summer Crafting show but before we left I wanted to tell you about the Craft Telly Forum.

We have just become a sponsor on this forum so have our own little outlet where we can post information and special offers and you can ask questions, etc.

It is a very friendly forum and there are lots of different threads you can join in and have conversations with other crafters.

Enjoy your Sunday

JK Unmounted Artwork

Both these cards were made using the new JudiKins Unmounted stamp sheets. They both also include EcoArtBoard.

The words in the background have been stamped and embossed with VersaMark and Sticky Stuff Embossing powder and covered with gold leaf.

Birthday

Good morning
Today is my birthday and before you ask I'm thirty something (I can never remember exactly but I'm nearer to 40 than 30!). Age is but a number and some days I feel 21 again and others I feel older than my very sprightly 80 year old friends - If I am as fit, agile and busy as them at that age then I will be amazed.

We have lots of exciting plans afoot at Stamp Addicts over the coming months but I can't share everything with you just yet, here are a few of the things that I can tell you about:

Sat 17 - Sun 18 July - Summer Crafting @ Doncaster Racecourse. Remember to bring your Stamp Addicts keyfob and pre-order anything you really really want.

Sat 24 - Sat 31 July (closed Sun & Mon) in store Summer Sale, we will also have huge bargains in the classroom.

Sun 15th August - Stamperama @ Stevenage Arts & Leisure Centre

Sat 16th-Sun 17th October - Christmas Cardmaking Weekend @ Stamp Addicts Store. £99 for 2 days, includes lunch and refreshments and classes 10am-6pm

Sometime in August we should be live on Create & Craft but we haven't been given a date yet.

I fill you in on other things as I can.

Hope you have a great day

My Retreat Apron

Obviously my apron had to be purple . . . . . We did have the advantage over the retreat attendees in that we had a week or two to prepare our aprons, so I was able to dye mine purple before I started stamping.

I stamped my name with some Heidi Swapp sponge letters in black ink but then coloured over the top with a Tulip paint. For the hearts and stars, again these were Heidi Swapp sponge stamps but then I coloured them with the Marvy Glitter pens which are designed for fabric. The Daisy I coloured with a Giotto metallic fabric marker and what you can't see on the pockets is where I stamped with the DeNami large dotted swirl stamp and then again went over with Tulip paints to create texture.

I went for the Adult Apron whereas Vicky chose the Youth Apron, both available to buy on our website - in their undecorated state.

Vicky's Retreat Apron

This is the Youth Apron that Vicky decorated for the retreat.She sprayed the whole aprong with Cosmic Shimmer sprays and then applied the butterfly stencils and sprayed those with Cosmic Shimmer as well.

As the strap was a little long for Vicky she made a Grungepaper flower using the Wendy Vecchi stamp set and made it into a brooch to hold the folded strap in place.

Anne & Sylvia

A couple more of our retreat attendees with their finished mirrors.

Retreat Artwork

The first class of our retreat, obviously after having decorated aprons, was using A Stamp In The Hand unmounted stamp sets. The pears were coloured with brush markers and the words were stamped onto the pear stamp with Encore.

The background blocks and the fruit were all stamped with Distress Inkpads.

The background blocks and the flowers were all stamped with Distress Inkpads.
