Shop Moving

Yes, we are totally insane. We will be moving shop over the next few weeks so our current shop will probably close some time next week and hopefully we will be ready to re-open within a couple of weeks in the new building.

We are only travelling a very short distance (about 200 yards, if that) so don't worry if you come to visit us, just head for the old store and you won't be able to miss us, but not yet.

So we still have our Members 50% off sale online and in store, anything you receive Membership discount on is 50% instead of 12% but only until we move.  It might still show as 12% online but don't worry we will adjust before despatch.

For Non-Members you can still get 50% off all Printworks & DeNami stamps by entering MOVE into the notes/comments box and we will then manually adjust the total before despatch - again only until we move.

So be quick to get your bargains before we pack everything away

Volunteers readily accepted for packing duties :)

Distress Scenic

I stamped the scenic in 3 different colours of Distress Inkpad and then used a waterbrush to move the colour a little bit.

The Birthday background was stamped in the same way with the same inkpads.

Gold leaf Heart

I made this card using our Etched Heart and Etched Square.

Both stamped onto Laminating sheets in black stazon.

If you saw the show you would know that on the square background is a smaller square of black in the middle of the laminating sheet (on the sticky side) so as not to waste any gold leaf.

Thatched House

This is one of the demonstrations I did not have time to do.

Original card by Vicky.  She stamped the Thatched House and then masked it before stamping the scenic along the bottom and then level with the house.

Members Only 50% Sale

We are currently giving all Stamp Addicts Members 50% discount instead of the usual 12% for all of this week.  This is available online and in store and on all products you normally receive Members discount on.

The discount online may still show online as 12% but we will manually adjust this before despatch, so all you need to do is log-in as normal.

If you are not yet a member and would like to become one,  you need to spend over £50 in one transaction and then we will make you a member.  Membership is ongoing with no end date.

Alcohol Poppies

This is the card I made on Create & Craft using our Poppies with our Birthday Text Square in the background and our new Ironworks square stamp behind that.

The poppies and Ironworks have been stamped onto card first coloured with alcohol inks.  To create the 2 different colours on the poppy create 2 different coloured sheets of alcohol ink backgrounds and then stamp the poppies on each, cutting out and layering together.

Clear Heart

This is another sample that I reproduced in the C&C show (I sent the one I made to a viewer).

The Etched heart has been stamped onto clear shrink plastic with black stazon.  This card has the heart in the background whereas the one I made on air had the Etched Square in the background.

Shrunken Poppies

I hope you got a chance to see one of my Create & Craft shows yesterday.

Above is the original card by Lesley that one of my demos was based on.  The Thatched House in the background with Poppies on white shrink plastic in the foreground.

Loving Couple

This our our Etched Heart and a couple from our Courting Couples set.

Waving Croc

This is our adorable little Waving Croc.

It looks like Esther has stamped him onto some kind of Fantasy Fibre.

Dream

Another of Brenda's creations using our new Dream set.

Etched Heart Pendant

Here Lesley has shrunk our Etched Heart on black shrink and then also stamped the same stamp direct onto the creased card in gold ink.

Imagine

Brenda made this card using our new word set Dream.

Balloon Bunny

This is our new stamp Balloon Bunny.

Bigfoot Bunny

This is Bigfoot Bunny, our new fun rabbit suitable for Easter or all occasions.

Etched Heart

On this card our Etched Heart has been stamped direct onto the card in black and then onto black shrink plastic using the gold Delicata inkpad.

Unfortunately you can't really see from my photo the Birthday Text Square background in gold on the red card.
