Black & White Flower

Another of Kay Carley's samples using our Scriptilicious Bloom stamps.

This time putting all the colour in the background and keeping the flower black ink on white card - gorgeous.

Thanks a Bunch Border

Our Design Team are fab

I think this is one of Debbie's (sorry if I'm wrong)

Using our Wildflower Posy

I love the stitching detail inside the blue flowers.

Kay Carley - Scriptilicious Blooms

Some of Kay's samples with our Scriptilicious Blooms stamp set.

Those PaperArtsy paints really look fab. 

Next time you pop in the store you can have a look at all the samples Kay made for us.

Palette Hybrid Inkpad

Have you heard about the Palette Hybrid Inkpad?

We have been using them for the last couple of years - and we haven't had to re-ink one yet!

We are only stocking black for now and we can't recommend them enough.

You can find it on our website here.

You could pop in to the store and pick one up - we are open Sat 26th May 10am-3pm

Hybrid ink, all purpose craft ink.

Blending the best of both pigment and dye inks into one inkpad.  Fine art colours that look like pigment but dry like dye.

Raised felt pad inks any size stamp

Crisp, bright and non-bleeding impressions

Kay Carley samples

Vicky designed these stamps but I think you'll agree Kay's samples take them to a whole new level of fabulousness.

Kay Carley's Card

If you visited us at Create It Kent last Saturday you would have seen Kay Carley

demonstrating with our Scriptilicious Blooms stamps.

Unfortunately I didn't get to watch any of Kay's demonstrations as I was running around the show (Vicky and I are part of the team running Create It Events)

but I do believe she was using PaperArtsy paints.

Cafe @ Create It Kent

Although we did have a lot of seating and tables at Create It Kent it just wasn't enough

So we have arranged for extra to be brought in for next year.

As you can see from these photos the hall was quite large and over the period of 4 days I walked more than 40 miles going up and down these 2 halls.

We do love organising these events but it is so much hard work, 

and I'm not sure when my feet will recover.

Pikachu @ Create It Kent

Did you see Pikachu at Create It Kent on Saturday?

If you missed him you can watch it here

he makes an appearance from 24 minutes into the programme.

Can you guess who is inside the costume?

Polka Dot Posies

DT member Debbie made this card for us using our Wildflower Posy.

Can you see the use of 2 different stencils in the background?

The dots overlapped with the squares.

Beautiful bright summer flowers.

Our Wildflower Posy in black and yellow 

Wonderful sample by Brenda.

Tweetheart Tag

I don't think you got to see this gorgeous tag that Brenda made using our

Birdeeze, Bird Words and Wildflower Posy.

Texture paste through a stencil and then all covered in purple - perfect!
