Revisiting Age Awareness from Stampin' Up's 2016 Retirement List

Hello,

Today I thought I'd share a few cards I have previously made using a stamp set that is now sadly retiring - Age Awareness. This is a great set for mens cards and it's only £14.00 too ;-) 

To see all retiring products please CLICK HERE

Do you remember this pair of cards? Here I teamed Age Awareness with Be The Star, which is on the retiring list as well :-(

Original Post can be found here

 Ah, I do love a little emboss resist. The sentiment of from Age Awareness but the leaves are from Kinda Eclectic, which is staying :-)
Original Post for this card is here

And one more design for today. This card uses Age Awareness for the tag part but the base uses Dotty Angles which is yet another fab set that is retiring!
You can see the original post here.

Well, I hope you have enjoyed this little trip down memory lane. I'll try and do a few more posts like this (with different sets) over the coming weeks before they all retire!

Please remember to order your favourites before they sell out and are gone forever!

Kinds Eclectic and Age Awareness by Stampin' Up! with lots of Heat Embossing!

Hi there,

 We are off out in a bit to have pudding for tea tonight, in town! I'll share some of the delights on my Instagram and Facebook pages later if you fancy a treat ;-)

So, before I go I wanted to share a card we made at class using the Kinda Eclectic stamp set and some heat embossing..

 We stamped the leaves with versamark ink, heat embossed in white and then, using a sponge dauber, highlighted the leaves with crumb cake ink

 this sentiment is from Age Awareness

 These cute leaves are in the clearance rack right now for the bargain price of just £1.79 for 36 pieces! Here we dipped it in the Early Espresso ink pad and topped it with clear embossing powder so it dried quickly before tieing on the card with bakers twine. 

TOP TIP: If the little leaves don't stay where you want them add a glue dot or a dab of crystal effects to secure in place ;-)

 and one last picture today :-)

Well, I hope you liked today's card and I'll be back tomorrow with more. Don't forget to stop by and see our deserts later too ;-)

Stampin' Hugs,

Mini Pizza Box with Kinda Eclectic by Stampin' up!

Helooo,

I know, I promised Dr Who today but I have just not had a chance to edit the photos for that card yet. I will do it very soon though, I promise ;-)

But, I do have a quick and easy little pizza box I made for a friend last week to send her a roll of Seam Binding ribbon in for her birthday (hope you have it already Ge!). Here's hoping then....

Now, I used the Kinda Eclectic stamp set again but just the leaves and butterfly today. Boy, does it look different when stamped onto So Saffron card with matching ink and a pop of Strawberry Slush too, don't ya think??

 This was a very easy box to make but if anyone is interested I can do a quick tutorial (next week ;-))? Let me know...

 Tag make with the Scalloped Tag Topper punch (nice and quick way to make pretty tags) and the (retired) Gift for You stamp. 

Love the Strawberry Slush thick twine too :-)

 Closer view of the tag which was punched with the Bracket Label Punch

 And a side view to finish today showing how I punched a little notch in the front to make opening easier ;-)

OK, short and sweet from me for tonight.

Back soon with more, thanks for looking :-))
