I'm Glad I did it

Good Afternoon Crafters,

How are we all on this GORGEOUS day, we are busting our bums down the hive to make sure all the Monday releases are going to be fab and wonderful and most importantly very useable for all of us crafters no matter what our favourite craft is.

Well Julie is back (of a fashion) after having to have a bit of time off and you know what that means, yup she bypassed the list of boring shop jobs to be done and got straight down to playing with some of the NEW WORDage stamps.

Remember these stamps are designed and made by us, which means if you have any suggestions or ideas that you'd like us to have a go with please let us know shop@beecrafty.net or pop in the shop, these stamps are for all of us to use and if you are looking for something we don't have let us know :)

SO the first one she got her hands on was the GLAD I DID IT : Large

Made with a 6x6 Plain Edged Card Blank, and the Glad I Did It Large Wordage Stamp, Distress inks and the Large and small tea roses which will  be available VERY soon.

This sample is in the shop, so be sure to pop in and have a look, and also remember if you like this sentiment but would like it smaller to run alongside the image all the WORDage stamps come in Large and Small

The beauty of this card (in my opinion :) ) is how you can easily change up the colour mix and also if you need to (trust me I do) use any small off cuts that you have been saving but had no idea what for :)

I think that'll do for today, remember we would love to see any of your cards uploaded to the Bee Crafty Facebook page and remember to keep your eyes peeled for all the NEW products coming soon.

Monday NEW Release: Banksy

Good Afternoon Crafters,

We have decided that the NEW schedule for Stamp release will be NEW stamps every Monday, we hope it will sweeten the Monday blues for you, this does not mean we will never release outside of Mondays (sometimes I just get too excited to show you) but it means you can look forward to NEW Stamps every Monday.

Today we are releasing the 1st 3 of our NEW Inspired by Banksy Collection.

Taken from the controversial but fantastic world of Banksy, this Polymer Stamp range is in no way endorsed by Banksy. The banksy influence on the world of graffiti art is undeniable and we think they make excellent statements for craft pieces in either cards, altered art or ATC's.

So make something different, thought provoking and inspiring.

 

SO here is one of today's NEW releases: Hope

 

a recognisable Banksy that can be used in many different ways, in fact I am off to have a play now, these stamps are 9.5cm x 6.5cm in size approx and are great value at ONLY £3.99.

 

All the banksy inspired stamps also come with a small Banksy graffiti that you can use or not :)

Stamps, Stamps & NEW STAMPS

Good Evening All,

Well after a short delay the first 6 WORDage stamps are now available to order and better than that it will not hold up the release of the next set of stamps which will be a picture stamp unlike anything we have seen before, and if that wasn't enough on the way to us right now is NEW release from Elisabeth Bell and Wee stamps so there really is something for everyone at Bee Crafty.

Along with the manufacture of our own NEW ranges (of which there will be many) we can also manufacture stamps to your own design, only up to A6 at the moment (as that is my largest polymer size in stock) but soon we will be able to make you anything up to A4, there is of course a quantity discount if you order lots but you only have to order 1 if thats what you want, so if you were looking for something personal to you for say Christmas or a Wedding, easy peasy :)

All of our stamps are self cling, high quality polymer and create a beautiful stamped image on Tgas, Chipboard, Cards & Pages, and the WORDage stamps are so versatile due to the duo size availablility :)

There is loads more up and coming at Bee Crafty and due to my ever expanding bump it will all be scheduled for the next few months so even when I am off Julie will be keeping you up to date will all the newest releases and if you pop in the shop she'll probably even let you play with some of the NEW products, so why not pop in (you may even get a sneaky peak of whats coming next)

See you soon

Rose & Felix

Good Morning Crafters,

I would like to show you another card I have made recently,

Rose and Felix

This is an 8x8 Card, made for Julie (or mum to me) for mother's day and is layered with, well to be honest LOADS.

PLUS lots of paper picking with my fabby new Tim Holtz Craft Pick, which I love not least because it is retractable and if I knock it off the desk I don't get a pierced finger catching it :)

Rose is Coloured with Letraset ProMarkers, Tulip Yellow and Mustard for the hair, rose and antique pinks for her clothes, her flowers I used a Lilac and then a darker purple with an Ultra Fine Nib to detail. Felix was coloured using a number 2 Grey and my blending tool.

The punched border strip was using this Tonic Studios Multi Lever punch

Plus some scrap paper out of my scrap draw (I thinkit was BG Euphoria once upon a time) and lots of layers of standard Coloured Card

The doily is one out of a pound shop pack cut down to size, but as daft as it sounds the bits I really loveare the faux stitching and paper pricking, doesn't take long and is just one of those extra details that makes all the difference :)

Bev x

P.S The shop will be closing early next week Mon - Fri 10am - 3pm so make sure you come in these times or give us a call on 01789 778074 if you need anything urgently and we'll do our best to help out :)

This is Wee Suzi, another of the wee stamps that is due in anytime now, Julie has layered her up on coloured cardstock and using the remnants of her Kaisercraft Tigerlilly Blossom from yesterday's offering and Junkitz Fanciful Plaid which is doible sided the large green section is the reverse and the plaid is the front and it's only 50p a sheet so BARGAIN!

The punched edge was done using the tonic multigeared punch which although used for paper on this project have been design to withstand up to 400gsm

The shop is OPEN on Saturday's 10am - 4.30pm & Julie is in so why notpop in and see what she is playing with this weekend and maybe have a cuppa whilst you browse :)

Thanks
