Sale bits and pieces ....

I have been making some cards using the new paper packs added to the Sale area, with a couple of my favourites punches and a stamped sentiment.

First up, the gorgeous My Mind's Eye papers - Lost & Found 3 which I used for my Wall Hanging project that I made at the end of last year.


I love the colour combination of these papers, some are embossed, some glittered and at half price - what are you waiting for!  They are going well so don't be long!  Click here to buy!



Really simple ideas, just a bit of liquid pearls, some Candi and twine added to my punches and stamp.

Next up I used the Not Just for Christmas set of papers - I love these, such gorgeous bright and cheerful colours and with patterns on one side that are not for Christmas it makes them ideal to use all year round.





I actually made lots of the cards using both the paper collections, so the idea above is in Not Just for Christmas but I also made it in My Mind's Eye - Lost & Found 3.


When I get a design that I like, and you know I love little squares, I like to make it in different paper collections to show how different they look.

Hope my cards have inspired you!
Have you treated yourself to any of the Sale paper packs?
If you have what have you made with them?  Send me a photograph I would love to see them.






PS:  We have some really exciting news to announce, any day now, keep checking the blog, Facebook and Twitter so that you are the first to find out when we spill the beans!!

These are perfectly 'Julie Hickey' - love them! Gorgeous CAS design and I love the bright colours. You've definitely inspired me to go get my punches and dies out and use my CWC papers to make something similar. Thank you for the inspiration Karen x

Lots of inspiration here Julie. It just goes to show how many items you can make from one or two different CWC paper packs. All gorgeous.
