...Introducing Seasonal Remedies...


Good Morning! We began showing peeks a few days ago for our October sets!! Yesterday we took a break to participate in the Swimming for Katie event, and if you have not already done so, please take a look at this event here.

Today we begin showing samples of what we've been up to with the new stamps. Let me tell you right away that this month it's all about Christmas!!! we have 6 sets. I love designing Christmas stamps, I think about them all year long and I have shuffled our bimonthly release plan to let me get these out in good time for Christmas. In November we'll have a recap event which will provide folks with ideas and inspiration for Christmas crafting with these and older sets.

Today I'm kicking off with a very special set - it's a close relative of the Rescue Remedies set, it's called Seasonal Remedies and is a set of label designs that are going to be perfect for Christmas gift giving. Presenting time honored Christmas sentiments in a new and unusual way, this set will make tags and cards super easy.

Heavily typographic and beautifully detailed, these are stamps look fabby simply stamped if you are in a hurry, or you can take time to experiment a little with colouring and embossing etc.

This large set contains 7 label designs, 3 supporting sentiment stamps and two decorative motifs. % of the labels are based around square or rectangle shapes and are so easy to trim out even without dies.

For my first card today I stamped one of the square labels in versamark onto kraft paper and clear embossed it. Then I trimmed it out with a Spellbinders square die template (Classic Squares small), added a vellum mat (Scalloped squares die, also Spellbinders) and mounted it onto an embossed card base (Spellbinders impressabilities), a little button and some tiny die cut holly leaves and I was happy.



I should be back later with more samples, but in the meantime, I invite you to take a peep at what the ladies have been up to!!
