Heartfelt Christmas Sentiments ... With Free Image Stamps


This is what I was trying to tell you about in the newsletter-that-never-was : )

It's the last of my Christmas releases for this year. It's a collection of Christmas sentiments which I've called 'Heartfelt {Christmas} Sentiments'.

It contains 15 sentiments, all straight from the heart, ...





... and because these sentiments are timeless, and suitable for Christmas cards year after year after year, regardless of annual trends, I wanted a typeface that reflected that. And this one, I think, reflects that exactly . I feel as though I could use it on my cards in 5 years time and it would still be relevant for Christmas.

And as with all my Christmas releases this year, it's another professional typeface, so the print quality is just wonderful.




(My Christmas Rose cards were inspired by Katie's wonderful creations.)

And the free gift I've included with them is ...


... 'Christmas Tree-os' - a set of 4 co-ordinating Christmas Image Stamps which includes
- a trio of pressies
- a trio of trees
- a trio of tree decorations and
- a trio of stockings.
Big dots. Little stripes. Lots of Holly. Fun. Cute. Christmassy!


Printing as 4 images to a single sheet of A4 paper, they each have their own fun Christmas sentiment and you can choose to print them with or without it : )





They will usually be £1.99 each. But until Christmas Eve, you can have both of them for just £1.99.

If you'd like to take a closer look, you can see them *here* in the Boutique.

And ... I hope you like them : )

I'm now going up to Bristol for a long weekend to finish my Christmas shopping. So I'd like to thank you all now for visiting this week. And wish you all a great weekend. And to all you Bristol girlies, if you see someone braving the crowds in Cribbs Causeway and Cabot's Circus this weekend, or plonked in a cafe up Whiteladies Road with a million shopping bags and wearing a bright pink bobble hat ... and looking christmas-crackered ... please come say hello - 'cos it'll probably be me! And it'll be lovely to meet you : )

Well That Didn't Work Did It!!!!!!!


If you're a Newsletter subscriber, I think you've probably had two very strange-looking emails land in your inbox - with no pretty pictures and links that don't work : (

I thought everything was OK when I sent the first one. Everything looked as it should have done. But it didn't work properly. And when I tried it again, that didn't work either! I don't know what I've done.

But this is what I was trying to send to you : )

Sorry 'bout that : )

What an A.MAZ.ING selection of cards I have to share with you today. From the wonderful ladies on the Creative Team.

Because whilst I've been busily working away here behind the scenes, they have all been equally busy creating gorgeous cards with the new Christmas releases and sharing them on their blogs : )

The ones you can see here? Well, these are just a small selection! If you take a look *here*, *here*, *here* and *here* , there is a lot more gorgeousness to see. Grab a coffee before you go though ... you'll be there a while!

HUGE thanks for all the hard work you put in to create such wonderful inspirations for us ladies. We absolutely LOVE them : )

Christmas Releases Winner


Hello Monday: )

And I have still have a couple more Christmassy things I want to add to the Boutique. But as the Boutique has been busier than usual, and it's taking me longer than I thought it would to upload everything, and Christmas is getting nearer and nearer, I wanted to select the random winner of the Christmas Product GiveAway before I go any further. So ...

... the winner is Emma (metalicbutterfly)!

Thank you to everyone who joined in and left such lovely comments on all the Christmas release posts : )

And if you'd like to contact me with your email address please Emma, I'll send your links to you for all the Christmas 2011 goodies I've released so far. And I'll send you the links for the ones still to come as soon as they're in the Boutique : )
