Nuts about you!

Teaser TimeIt’s day three of the teasers over on the Clearly Besotted blog, Stamping and Sharing.  Check out Steph’s samples – they’re amazing!

I’m here with a wee card made using the owl from You’re a Hoot II and some little elements from Autumn Flowers and Nuts About You – both in this month’s release.

nuts about youMake sure you hop on over to Steph’s blog for more inspiration.  I’ll be back tomorrow with a new 10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge including our little video of myself, Amy, Debby and Stephanie doing the challenge.  Good fun was had by all!

Sneaky Peak time at Clearly Besotted!

What a weekend I’ve just had!!  I travelled down to Essex to meet up with some of my fellow Clearly Besotted girls Aimes Wanford, Debby Hughes and the gov’ner herself, Stephanie Wincott!  Steph is about as generous as you can get with her hospitality although I have come back feeling rather ashamed of my clutter – that girl has MINIMAL taste!!  I don’t think we stopped talking for more than 5 minutes!  Thanks for your company girls – it was the best weekend ever!  I’ve added a few little pics below but we were chatting so much we didn’t even stop to actually take very many!

We filmed a couple of 10 Minutes Craft Dashes too so stay tuned for that – what a laugh we had!

As it happens it was a very timely gathering too as we are the beginning of September which means ……… NEW RELEASE TIME !!! I am always excited when September comes around – for me its the start of the countdown to Halloween and of course Christmas!  Steph has some amazing sets coming out this month too and I can’t wait for you to see what’s in store.

Today I am sharing a card made with a gorgeous Halloween set called Boo To You! featuring some cute pumpkins and spooky sentiments. My card is more Autumnal than Halloween though!  The sentimant is from another new set, Autumn Flowers.

10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge #24

Hello all – here to share the latest 10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge as hosted by the gorgeous Paulina over at the Pretty Pink Posh blog.  The colours this time round are not ones I would naturally gravitate towards but once I had gathered my chosen inks and stamps the card came together pretty quickly.

I pulled out some fabby Clearly Besotted stamps and Hero Arts shadow inks and went to work – and came up with this…..  The rose colour is a little more peachy than I had intended but I did’t have time to start again!!

There is a great prize on offer too from Gossamer Blue – how yummy does this look?
