More Vintage style Vintage Vogue and more...

Some more samples made using the Vintage Vogue stamp set.





Remember the Vintage Vogue stamp set (£19.95) is currently only guaranteed to be availabe until 30 September (that's not to say it might not make it in to the new catalogue due out on 1 October 2010, but nothing is certain!)

And finally the last two cards made using the Vintage Vogue set (for a wee while anyway):

The first one uses colours from the Bold Brights range for a much more modern card.

And this last card includes a flower that was included in last month's Stampin' Success (a magazine for US & Canadian demos, but we can sneak a peek online ;)

Some Vintage Vogue cards

These cards were made using the gorgeous Vintage Vogue stamp set that we used at class the other week and some of the ladies who attended (and purchased the stamp set) requested that I put my other samples online. The first five cards were made using the new Cottage Wall designer series paper - not sure how long this will be around, we've just been told "until stocks last" so if you want some it would probably be better to order sooner rather than later.

However if you just want a taster then these are also included in the Stampin' Up! New Colour share.

The first three cards were CASEd (ie shamelessly copied) from Canadian Stampin' Up! demo Deanna Tam. My crafting mojo had got up and left for a seriously long time and I just didn't know where to start. But luckily once I had made the first three cards I was inspired to come up with my own ideas once again...thank goodness!
