Mystery Release Party EXTENDED & UPDATED!

Hi everyone! I've secretly been working on something very exciting for the last few months. And let me tell you how hard it was to keep it a secret! Today I can finally share the exciting news with you all! Before I tell you all what it is, let me just say this was one of the hardest releases I've ever tried to get finished. Everything that could of gotten in the way did. But thank goodness I can finally release them!

I'm excited to announce that I now have my own stamp line!!! 

My very first line of stamps is called the "Lilly Mae Collection". 

These were designed and licensed by me and illustrated by the very talented, sweet Tracey Malnofski! I tell Tracey my ideas and she draws them for me. How cool is that! 

For our first release of this line we have started out with 6 of the most cutest little girls. Each girl in a different scene and each one tells a different story. 

I can't tell you in words what this line means to Tracey and I. We worked extremely hard to come up with some of the most cutest images that we thought that crafters like yourselves would love to color and make paper crafts with. 

We hope that you like these as much as we do, and that you have fun crafting with these. 

My design team has created some of the cutest cards for this line, and we can't wait to show them to you. 

All of these are available on the website here. We're only offering two of these images as digis. The Beach Comber & The Dress. All the other images will be in photopolymer clear stamps. If you're interested in purchasing digis. They can only be purchased from our Etsy store here.

The first image is called "Bird Keeper". It's my favorite image out of all of them, as you will soon see. I just love this one so much. 

Keeley created the card for our Bird Keeper stamp, isn't just darling! 

The next image is called "Cherry Picking". 

Tammy made this adorable card using our Cherry Picking stamp. I love the colors on this. So cute!

This one is called "The Dress".

Keeley made this one. I really wondered when we did this image how a card would turn out using it. I think it turned out perfectly. 

This one is called "Beach Comber". 

Tammy made the card for this one. She used watercolors to color the image. It turned out adorable, and I love the seashells!

This Lilly Mae is called "Kite Flying".  

Keeley made this card and check out all the little details. Picket fence, and hanging heart. Love the colors on this one.

And this is the last stamp and it's called "Birthday Party". 

Tammy made this adorable layered card. It just amazes me how many layers there are on this one. 

My design team is so talented! I'm so lucky to have them on my team! 

Thank you Keeley and Tammy for making such beautiful projects with my new line of stamps. I love everything you made and your work is amazing!!! 

Thank you Tracey for working with me on this line! It was so much fun doing this together! Your amazing at what you do and keep doing it!

Here's a photo of one of our package inserts for this line. I designed these myself and I love how well they turned out.  

So what do you all think of my new line of stamps, do you like them? We hope you like them and have tons of fun with them!!!

Introducing New Design Team Member!

Hi everyone! Jody here today to introduce to you our newest design team member Tammy Houghton Cunliffe!

We're so excited to have Tammy on board with us. She is a wonderful paper crafter and die designer! 

A little background on Tammy.

My start in paper crafting (20 years ago) was in scrapbooking my beautiful daughters’ photos.  My greeting art, (I secretly call it) along with my craft booth and blogging experience, began about 5 years ago.  I love keeping up and sharing what I learn through education, design team work, publications, demo’s and retail.  My style of design is vibrant and rich with the use of multiple mediums, embellishing with ribbons and layering with die cuts complete my creations.  Although, simple tags, cards, bookmarks, place settings and other more simple projects are high on my list as well.  They allow me to be creative more quickly with almost immediate gratification!    

My signature projects are shaped cards because they allow me to use and expand my paper crafting techniques with my imagination as the only limitation.   While working with dies, shaped cards (with thin edges) and altering items, I need to extensively research papers to find the best weight, design, colors and styles that will best compliment my work. 

I am the blessed owner of Shape EZ by TLC ~ an SVG cut template company sold in my Etsy Store.  I have ventured into designing dies for several companies and am a member of the Little Darlings Rubber Stamps team and now the Treasured Times team as well!

You can visit Tammy's Blog here.

You can also visit her Etsy store here. 

Thank you Tammy for joining our team! We are so excited to be working with you!

Thanks for stopping by today and visiting us!

New Design Team Member

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
Today I'd like to introduce another new Design Team member, Keeley Ainsworth.
Keeley has been crafting for many years, and you can tell by her work that she's an awesome crafter and dedicated to paper crafts.
Here's Keeley's Bio:

Hi everyone, my name is Keeley I’m from the UK and I'm the wrong side of my 30’s.

I have been married for 9 years to a very very understanding husband when it comes to crafting especially when I buy things!

We have two children Elliot, 9 and Millie-May, 4, oh and not forgetting the dog, bearded dragon and the rabbit!

I have been card making, altering, distressing, grunging, etc… for many years now and I just love to get

my hands dirty but my main passion is colouring with copic’s whether its using Digi or Rubber Stamping, I like to use both, I am currently having a dabble in colouring with Distress Inks, but so far no luck and they have all

gone in the bin, its harder than it looks!

My main style is all things Shabby Chic but I do try to make a range of different cards and projects

with various techniques, which I hope everyone likes and takes a little inspiration from.

You can see more of my creations over on my blog.....http://keeleyscards.blogspot.co.uk

We are so excited to have Keeley on our team, and I hope you all look forward to her projects!

Thank you Keeley for joining us!

Who Wants A Cookie? - Emo Elenora's Sunflower Cookie

Hi everyone, hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day! I spent my weekend with my daughter and my three grand babies. :) It was a perfect day!

Today I'd like to share with you a very creative project done by one of our customers, Tami Mudd. She belongs to a very special group that's into baking cookies and giving back. She took part in a cookie swap headed by Nicole from "Lifes A Batch" on Facebook, for Mother's Day. Tami decided to use our stamp Emo Elenora's Sunflower Stamp designed by Jehanne Silva-Freimane from Just Some Lines to create this edible cookie.  Tami used edible food coloring to make the impression of the stamp, and then painted the cookie using the same food coloring.  Isn't it just darling! They look so yummy too!  Who knew you could make a cookie using a stamp? What a clever idea!!!

Here's a couple more photos of the rest of the cookies that were created by the group for the Mother's Day swap. I can't believe how talented these ladies are. They're just beautiful!

Here's the link to Tami's blog if you'd like to take a look at some more of her work.

Tami also has an Etsy store where she sells her handmade Scribe & Needle Tools.
