Hello and welcome to the August release!! I know!! It feels like the July release only just happened! but we had to pull this forward as it will be vacation time soon!!
Just before we get started we have one more little trip for you, a little waltz along our traditional release day DT blog waltz!
Here are your partners!!: Belinda, Julia, Anya, Jennifer, Bonnie, Laurie, Lynn, Mona, Lisa
Carly is on VACA!!! (waving! see ya next month!)
OOh remember to comment here on this post and on the DT posts for a chance of winning yet more stampy goodness!!! There will be 2 winners, a free stamp set each!!
Also for this release - FREE shipping for orders over £50
(approx $78US, $80CAD, $86AUD, €60Euros, subject to change)
The FREE SHIPPING offer will run from now until I return from vacation! Hopefully it'll help make up a little bit for the fact that after Friday there will be no orders shipping for two weeks! Here's the schedule:
Orders taken after midday (my time) on Friday 30th July will be processed from Sunday 15th August onwards, I will resume shipping on the Monday 16th.
Thank you all for visiting this week and all of the fabby comments! we've had a blast making ghoulish gear and we're not quite done yet for Halloween, but you'll see later in the month!
Here are our two new sets for August!
Wanda's Pantry
An out of the ordinary Halloween stamp set, containing label designs that you can use in a couple of different ways. Stamp the labels and use them to decorate assorted bottles and jars for your Halloween decor, or use them on edible gifts disguised as horrifyingly halloweeny ingredients, laugh as your guests recoil in horror at your offer of 'regurgitated candy'! LOL, perfect for dressing up your Halloween table!
We particularly like the Love potion label, it'd make a fabby Valentines card or gift tag!
Set in vintage fonts this creepy set will yield up to 10 different labels if you just ink up the corner swashes and company name on the square label and then substitute in the various other ingredients!
Two of the labels match a die from the Spellbinders Labels 4 die template set and the large rectangular label is easily trimmed out with the largest label shape in the original Spellbinders Labels small die template set. The circular labels are punchable with 2 inch punches and the square label is easily trimmed with a ruler and craft knife. Simple pimple! lol.
The large rectangular vampire blood label measures just over 3 inches tall by just under 2.5 inches wide. The circular labels are just under 2 inches in diameter.

Midnight Feast
Jam packed with unusual sentiments, easily punchable tags, decorative motifs and background builders this Halloween set is just itching to be explored! Create Halloween goodie tags in a snap or get creative with a gothic window! There are endless possibilities in this one set alone! Featuring our young, apron clad, kitchen witch Wendy, this is a novel set you'll turn to time and again if Halloween brings out the baker/cook in you as it does in my house!
The tags work with 1.75 inch, and 2 inch circle punches, while the gothic window is easily cut out using some nifty tools, see HERE for details, you might already have them!
The 'Vampire Bites' sentiment is 0.8 inches wide by approx 0.5 inches tall, the gothic window is just over 2.25 inches tall by just under 1.75 inches wide.

Oh My GOODNESS, these are fabulous! Halloween is going to be so fun this year.
ReplyDeleteThe new sets are great. Lots of creepy possibilities. I hope you have a lot of sets on hand because I think they'll go like hotcakes or"freshly plucked eyeballs"!
ReplyDeleteClaire, you've managed to combine Gothic and Elegant all in one. I love it!!
ReplyDeleteI wish you and your family the most Fab Holidays - relax, enjoy and breathe. You certainly deserve a break from the bustle :)
I'm off to wander through the DT's creations and get my spook on-hee!
Those are far too much fun, and I even live in a country that doesn't really "do" Halloween! But my bat-loving child and my haunted obsessed mother would love some crafty treats with this set.
ReplyDeleteBooh, these are great.Unfortunately we Germans aren't into Halloween so much, but I am thinking ....
ReplyDeleteOh my thanks for coming out with new stamps just love your style and these new stamp sets is something else. I hope I win something today the 27th is my birthday and what a gift that will be to win some of your stamps
ReplyDeleteHi Claire
ReplyDeleteYour stamps are so beautifyl so well designed love them.
The projects and cards from you and the members are stunning!
Both of these sets are really fun and fabulous!!!
ReplyDeleteMy order is placed for both stamp sets, Hooray!

You’ve done it again Clair and produced another set of 1st Class stamps.

ReplyDeleteI love the new sets, and your design team and you have done some fabby samples for us!! You all are sooo creative!!

Keep up the good work, and enjoy your holiday: you deserve it!!!!
These are really great... It would be really fab to make some blood looking love potion *evil grin*

After seeing the Halloween projects on Laurie's blog, I popped over to check out Waltzingmouse and fell in love! I just placed my first order - your stamps are brilliant! It was so hard having to edit down my cart (did I say I was in love? lol). Anyway, all the projects are fab!. Hope you have a wonderful vacation.

Came across your website quite by accident (looking for waltz dance steps!) but I am also an avid card maker and how amazing are your stamps!I've been looking for something different, need a change from all those cute stamps and yours are so inspiring.Still feminine and girly but just so fresh even though they're vintagey - if you know what I mean?
ReplyDeleteClaire,
