Stampin' Up! Review of 2018 - part II

Hello, I'm back again with Part II of my review of 2018.

April
The BIGGEST news of 2018 was the announcement at OnStage of a colour revamp and, a new design for ink pads!

Personally, I have loved the colour revamp - it pushed me right out of my comfort zone and made me look at colours in different and new ways.

Lots of new colours and new combinations to explore - thank you Stampin' Up!

The new ink pad design has been a huge hit - sleeker, easier to open and improved ink formula - what's not to love?

One of the most popular post on my blog this month was a project we made for Coffee & Cards using a stamp set called Tranquil Tulips - many of you loved it as much as I did!

May
With lots of new products to play with from the upcoming new Annual Catalogue, I used a bundle called Animal Outing to make a birthday card for my daughter Rosie.  I loved colouring these cute animals with the Stampin' Blends!

Another favourite bundle that generated a lot of interest this month was Orchid Builder.  These ever so clever stamps and coordinating framelits make it possible to create some stunning flowers.

June
I held another Catalogue Launch and BOGOF sale at the beginning of June - so many lovely new goodies and a chance to grab a bargain proved irresistible for my crafty ladies!

June also saw my first Field Lodge Away Day with a trip to Bests Coffee Shop in St Ives for a real Coffee & Cards session - there 'might' have been cake ...!

My favourite project from June was a card I found in a copy of Success Magazine which is an exclusive SU magazine for Demonstrators.  I loved the project so much that I CASED it!

June also saw the long awaited luanch of Stampin' Blends.  Many of you joined my Stampin' Blends Club and received the whole collection!

There will be more new colours added soon too when the Spring /Summer Catalogue launches on the 3rd January - Balmy Blue and Mossy Meadow!!

Phew, I think that's all for part II of my review, I will be back soon with part three.

I'm on a mission to clear some space in my craft room - I can feel a giveaway coming on!

See you soon.
