Yummy Goodies and a Sneaky Peek

Morning folks and for once the weather forecast for yesterday was spot on.....yes the sun decided to come out to play.....from winter to summer all in the space of 24 hours and I decided to escape from the cubbyhole and head off to you know where....yes off on a trip to Simply Create to have a coffee and a chat with the lovely Jacqui about my demo and workshop days.  I will let you into a little secret...strictly between you and me you understand.....it's all about CHRISTMAS....only 15 weeks away....now that's a scary thought...

and whilst we were browsing through the new Christmas catalogue....I mentioned that I needed to order this...
absolutely "Fabulous Flourish" and not just for Christmas.... this is one stamp I will probably use until you're all sick of the sight of it and then some more....well my luck was well and truly in....Jacqui just happened to have it in stock.....so into my bag it popped and I know what you're all thinking how big is that button......
huge to be honest.....but they are so cute and check out the brand new trims in stock and before you know the crafty stash windfall has got a great big dent in it.....well I did warn you it wouldn't last long.  Just time for a little sneaky peek and after spending the morning surrounded by all things Christmas......say no more....
catch up with you all tomorrow for another fabby challenge over at Penny Black Saturday...off to play with all things Christmassy and that means my crafty partner and I will no doubt be covered from head to toe in the old glitter.
Hugs Kath xxx
Edited to add: have had several e-mails already asking about the huge buttons.....they are 2" or 6cm in size....check them out compared to a normal button

    Morning Kath

    Hope the throat is feeling back to normal today... How lucky are you to have Simply Create near to you so that you can pop in for coffee and chats - the shop looks gorgeous in photos you posted before.

    Now that flourish stamp is amazing - I'm a bit partial to flourishes myself! can't wait to see your creations with it. Now those buttons are huge and I like 'em! so ditto!

    Have a great weekend.

    Oh lord Kath, why did you have to make me click on the Hero Arts new catalogue??!! Love all the Christmas stamps, and those pleated tree cards on page 2/3 are absolutely brilliant! Actually there's a lot of great ideas in the catalogue this year. See you tomorrow over at PBSC.

    Hugs

    Hi Kath, can't wait to see what you and Penny Black have for us tomorrow. I can see from your sneaky peek that you haven't worn out your favourite Cuttlebug snowflake lol! Your new stash looks interesting. These Hero Arts stamps are yummy and these buttons are amazing.
