A little UK blog Candy

Hello folks, I have a little Candy on offer tonight, courtesy of Personal Impressions. I was mistakenly sent two sets of the London Sights stamps by Jill Taylor and, rather than me returning one, I was given the okay to pop them on here along with three sheets of PI's Vintage Union Jack 12" x 12" paper. Update! I've just amended the candy as it looked a bit stingy! So, it is now the stamp set, 3 sheets of the PI Vintage Union Jack paper, 3 x sheets of A4 Artisan 300 gsm card from PI, 2 x London Photostrips and 1 x London Wordstrips from Darkroom Door, 2 x metal London charms and one of my cards that is featured in this month's (May) issue of Crafts Beautiful. That seems a little better to me!So, if you'd like a chance to grab them, just leave a comment on this post by Monday 23rd April. I'll pick a random winner on that date after 7pm.
The new 300 gsm white card that many of you have been asking me about is now back in stock - hoorah! Our original card became unavailable and I have been testing lots of possible replacements for quite a while now. Finally, one passed my tests! It's very easy to spot in this bright, colourful packaging, and available from Personal Impressions stockists...if your nearest store doesn't have it, just ask them to order it for you. It's perfect for using with Distress ink techniques including my favourite faux bleaching. This is the one included in the candy. I've no pictures of my latest creations to share as I've been working on magazine projects as well as working with new Darkroom Door stamps for another project that I have to keep under wraps for the moment.
Tomorrow I'll be in Card Craft, Lancaster which I'm looking forward to as there is always a really fun crowd there. I'll be using my new stamps, including the Off the Wall collection, Build a Scene range and alphabets.
If you're coming along please ignore the scratches & grazes, not down to Tara this time, but the result of gardening! I look like I've been through a thorn bush and I more or less have!
Don't forget to leave a comment to go in the draw for the Candy!

  7. Lindsay, sorry I've been gone so long. Things have been difficult after the death of my mum last June. Oh those papers and stamps are yummy. My hubby has been picked to drive a bus for the Olympics to take around competitors. He's not sure when he'll go but it will be for a 3 week stint. I'd like to make a scrapbook of his time. These stamps would also be perfect for some Docrafts Card for Life cards so I would be pleased if you could put me into the draw. Enjoy Lancaster. Kym xxx

  8. Wow Lindsay, great offer! I finally plucked up the courage to go on the London Eye and want to make a scrap page of my bravery so these stamps would be perfect!! Fingers crossed, but where ever they go, I am sure they will be put to good use ;-)

  14. How kind of you to give us this chance to win those super stamps.

    I keep looking at the brambles that have sprung up in my garden and once the weather improves I really must tackle them - not something I'm looking forward to.
