Hi everyone 🙂

It's taken a little longer to post these projects than I was planning, but better late than never. I'm glad I was able to sneak these in before the new Deal of the Week is announced tomorrow. Haven't these weekly deals been fabulous?

Both these gift packaging projects were created with my much-loved Sweet Slumber Designer Series Papers which are 35% off for just a few more hours (if you want to get some at the reduced price of $14.92 instead of $22.95 then let me know now!). This cardstock-weight textured DSP is perfect for boxes like the ones we make with the Big Shot and dies.  The one above is made with the Pillow Box die, and this next one is Stampin' Up!'s exclusive Fancy Favor die.

Thanks for visiting my blog, and for your kind comments and emails about the projects I share here. Your lovely messages always make me smile, this week especially, after the sad passing of our beloved 12 year old 'Charlie-dog' (if you've been a regular to my home for classes and clubs you'll know exactly who I mean!). It's amazing how attached we get to our four-legged furry friends, isn't it?

See you tomorrow for the next Deal of the Week.

This week's fabulous deal features a HUGE 35% discount off some of our lovely 12 x 12 Designer Series Papers.

Perfect for scrapbookers and cardmakers alike, these paper packs coordinate beautifully with the Stampin' Up! colours, and come in packs of 12 double sided high quality pages (2 each of 6 different designs!).

So here are the amazing prices which are ONLY VALID UNTIL TUESDAY 15th June. Please contact me before 8pm on Tuesday to order.

The Sweet Slumber Specialty paper is – as the name suggests – something very special. The pages in this pack have a beautiful texture and are much thicker than our normal Designer Series Paper (DSP). In fact it's almost like cardstock (but not quite!). I love making little 3D boxes with the specialty papers because they are just that bit firmer. They are perfect as the pages of mini scrapbooks and journals, too.

I'll be back to post some samples during the week, but for now here's a flashback to a fun Easter card I made this year – yep, featuring the Sweet Slumber textured DSP. I love this stuff!

Happy stamping,
