So the boutique pages are going quite well. I'm not sure I'll meet the target I set myself. But ... you never know. I don't think I'll be too far behind it : )
But I didn't want to launch the new pages without having something new to add to them. And I'm not quite ready for a Christmas launch yet. But I do have a little something. And this little sneak preview is a little flavour of the little something that I am adding. And what will be new when the pages do go live.
It's a set of sentiments. Do you remember the now-retired 'Simple Sentiments' from a few years ago? Well this new set is also called 'Simple Sentiments'. But it's different : ) And lovely. And I've used the.most.trendy combination of fonts.
I've set a question for you to answer if you'd like to win them ...
Me? I know the style of cards I'm sending this year - it's what I'm designing : ) But I haven't started making my cards yet.
Please leave your answer in the comments. I'll randomly select one winner as they go live on the web site which I'll announce here. So don't forget to check to see whether you're the lucky winner : )
And just one comment per person please!
*** Random winner now selected. Comments are now closed.***
I'll be using traditional reds and greens and keeping it simple. I got in a stew last year doing elaberate cards ... ended up buying some ..LOL

Glad to hear all is going well with the website Liz. As for Christmas cards... I'm still at the 'thinking about it' stage!
ReplyDeleteHi Liz, I've done a few cards but not nearly enough, just don't seem to have the festive spirit yet, it's coming though.
ReplyDeleteJo x
Can't wait to see the new Sentiment release Liz and of course am waiting excitedly for the Christmas Launch! I want to make a start on my Christmas cards so hoping the PP Launch will not be too long lol!! xx
ReplyDeleteI made the first Christmas card for this year back in January. However, I didn't make another one for a little while, but have made loads in the last two or three months. I like to do a mix of modern and traditional depending on my mood at the time.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear things are going ok with the website, can't wait to see what you're bringing out for Christmas. Hugs Christine x
I have a grand total of two Christmas cards made so far :/ better get a move on me thinks! Excited for the launch of the new sentiments!
ReplyDeleteRach :) xx
I've sketched a few ideas but have not put ink to paper yet :)
ReplyDeleteIve only made 2 cards so far ....... and I had great plans of doing a few each month!!!!
ReplyDeleteCant wait to see the Christmas launch, and the new sentiments.
No, I have not started my cards for this year but I hope to do something with pinks, turquiose, and some nontraditional colors. Looking forward to the new launch.
ReplyDeleteHi Liz
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the new designs! No not started yet...always have good intentions and then end up working through the night to get them done. Any excuse....my current one is that 'I'm waiting for the new PP release' of course :-)
I've made 4 so far, I did promise to do 1 per week since January but kind of got a bit sidetracked - whoopsie!!!!
ReplyDeleteHI Liz!
ReplyDeleteI'm definitley going clean and simple for my cards this year maybe with some fab new PP christmas papers who knows ;)
Emma x
Oh I have made 3 cards I am soooooooooooooo behind I need a quick and simple but stylish way to roll them all out!! x
ReplyDeleteI'm using the washed out papers in sassy and pansy for the card bases and have got some holographic rub ons. They look gawjus! xx
ReplyDeleteHi Liz,
ReplyDeleteYes i have started my Christmas cards and some of them i have entered into challenges its great because you know after the challenges that they will be used for a member of your family and friends i think at my last count i have made about 12-15 and i need to make 70 so a lot of work still to do!! i'm always looking for new ideas and new sentiments and look forward to your launch i'll be checking out your site :) Sandra H
I've just this second finished writing mine! I still have some special ones to make for family, but am pleased to have the rest made and written nice and early for once.
ReplyDeleteI have not done any Christmas card yet and will only be doing them in November or early December.
ReplyDeleteGroan! I know, I know ....I really must make a start!
ReplyDeleteI have a vague idea somewhere floating around in my head...just nothing actually done yet....but I will...tomorrow?
Not yet - I'm a really last minute kind of gal! lol!
ReplyDeleteI've made a few, but when the sun comes out it doesn't feel right :0) As the weather changes I'll be more in the mood for it! x
ReplyDeleteI'm SO looking forward to seeing the new website and getting the sentiments Liz. I LOVE the mixed font ones and I know yours will be extra pretty. As for Christmas cards, I've made ONE! *Gasp*. Gotta get a grip! lol
ReplyDeleteHugs Viv x
No - I'm so far behind - I'm doing a stall at a fete, too!!! Pleeeeease can you release some Christmas stuff? It would be great to have some lovely Christmas papers to play with :) I get stuck buying mat stacks because most of them are "distressed" and I just don't like that!
ReplyDeleteI started making my Christmas cards in January, inspired by some that I had received & also recycling others.
ReplyDeleteNo, I work better under pressure and don't really want the summer to end. I have, though, lifted my big box of Christmas papers down from the shelf and had a lovely time looking through them all.

Hi Liz
ReplyDeleteI have started already! I got caught out last year so I'm being really good.
I have to make around 350 for my annual charity card party in November
for a very worthy cause. I sell 10 for £5 and half goes to helping orphans in Kenya.
I am using my new promarkers this year and your gorgeous christmas images from last year !
Regards
Linda
I have not started yet, but I have been looking for inspiration.
ReplyDeleteBarb
Hi! I haven't started yet, but I have bought a beautiful new christmas tree stamp, and have a few vague ideas. I'm having an operation on 3rd October, and hope to start madly making Christmas cards a few weeks after that, as soon as I have recovered :) I'm hoping to book a few days off work, and have a few craft days with friends - that's the best way to make cards, isn't it? Surrounded by good friends, tea, chocolate and gossip :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the Christmas launch!
Jen
Hi Liz!

Kisses

Yes, I made about 30 cards in January, but none since. Need to get going very soon.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Trish
I've made 2! One of them has Pink Petticoat trees on it :) Jo x
ReplyDeletereally enjoyed using PP images last year on my Christmas cards and looking forward to new launches this year too!
ReplyDeleteDee
Hi Liz

Not started mine yet - I can't get motivated until it's almost too late!
ReplyDeleteYes :) So proud of myself actually starting early this year. I just 'wing it' and make whatever style im in the mood for on the day im crafting but iv refrained from buying anything new to Christmas Craft with, as i'm waiting to see what you launch. Loved the little gingerbread man last year! Well done on the new look of the website Liz
ReplyDeleteHi Liz,
ReplyDeleteI have been making Christmas Cards since June (even when the sun was out) I make cards for my local hospital Cancer dept and they sell them to raise money for alternative treatments for their patients for free. Your papers and digi prints make lovely cards and so very different from the ones you buy in the shops. They tell me they sell like hot cakes.
Have a good day
Sandra
Hi Liz, looking forward to the new blog/site ;)
ReplyDeleteYes, I have made quite a few Xmas cards already BUT the are DT cards, so I suppose they don't really count!
I will be making cards with Tiny Xmas Treasures, as I have about 24 images left from last year! That's the good thong about digi images - you can print them and save them for later!
Thanks for the chance to win your fabby new sentiments :). Xx
Hi Liz,
ReplyDeleteThe only Christmas card I've made so far is my entry for the O Christmas Tree Competition! I'm planning on doing a couple of Christmas fete's so will need to start Christmas crafting ASAP for them. Looking forward to the Christmas launch :)
Thanks
Carol
