New In Colours and Heirloom Arrangements

I’m back from my adventures in Strasbourg at Onstage, Stampin’ Up!’s annual convention. I had an amazing time, lots of fun, food, friends and crafting. So much awesomeness is coming your way with the new catalogue in May, it is very exciting! I shared lots of pictures on both Facebook and Instagram, but here are a few of my favourites, you MUST try the Spätzle, its amazing!

In today’s Craft and Chat replay I share the NEW In colours for 2025, sadly one of them Cloud Cover has an ink stability problem, Stampin’ up! has very strict quality controls and the ink isn’t behaving……. so for now it wont launch in May and we will see what happens if the colour stabilises. I also had a wifi problem and blurry picture. We haven’t had any for ages…… typical. I think it was to do with my automatic back up system which I’ve sorted out, so fingers crossed its fixed.

I then made 3 cards using the wonderful Heirloom Arrangement kit. There are so many possibilities with this kit, whether you are a card maker or Scrapbooker. You can follow the suggestions for cards or just do your own thing, perfect for when you need a creative boost.

Here are all the Stampin’ Up! items I used in the video. Click on the pictures to go shopping in my online store.

You know I’m always busy, well last week and the coming week are beyond crazy! Tomorrow is my in person Spring Retreat, with the online Spring Retreat next weekend. Sunday I’m in Eastleigh at Stamperama, a craft show, I’ll be demonstrating, showcasing my classes and there will be some retired stamps for sale too. Next week I also have 2 classes. Eeek!

In between times I really want to start creating with my NEW goodies!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend whatever you are up to, I’ll be back next week with some more creative inspiration.
