Mediterranean Achievers Blog Hop – Theme:2016-2017 Annual Catalogue Sneak Peek

17th May 2016 By Sarah Berry

Welcome to the Grand Vacation Achievers Blog Hop for May. This month our theme is Sneak Peeks! We are sure that you will find some incredible inspiration from the projects that you are about to see. Also welcome to my blog, my name is Sarah Berry and I’ve been a demonstrator for almost 8 years, I live in Lancashire in the north of England, UK.

Every month I send out many thank you cards to my wonderful customers thanking them for their orders and support. This is the first batch of thank you cards that I’ve made using a brand new stamp set that’s coming out in the 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue. The set I’ve chosen in a hostess set, available to order for free with a minimum of £150 purchase or party sales. I send out a huge amount of cards and of course I want to make them as efficiently as I can because they are on a massive scale, but at the same time I still want them looking great.

Here’s a little video showing you how easy this is!

The note cards I’ve used are the set of white cards with envelopes, which come in a pack of 20 for £5.50. The texture is smooth and it can hold a little amount of water like this very well, with no bleeding through to the other side.

Thank you for visiting me today, I’m so pleased you did. I hope you’ve been inspired by my card and I really appreciate your comments and reply to each and every one. Thank you!

Welcome to part 2 of our Spring/Summer Farewell 2016 Blog Hop!

You’ll be hopping around to 6 countries and will visit 11 amazing Stampin’ Up!® Independent Demonstrators, each with an inspirational project for you to enjoy.

The retired list is out now so we’re saying ‘farewell’ to some amazing products, only around while supplies last or until 31st May 2016.

Currently you’re visiting Sarah Berry from Lancashire, United Kingdom. Hello there! 🙂 You can continue hopping my using the list of names at the end of this post. Now, let’s scroll down to see what I’ve been making.

I’ve chosen the Love You Sew stamp set, which is a hostess only set, which means you can only order this with a qualifying order of £150. This makes this set quite special doesn’t it. 🙂

Here I’m showing off a little of the new with the brand new In Colours for 2016-2018. Aren’t they great? From top to bottom we have Peek-a-boo Peach, Dapper Denim, Sweet Sugarplum, Emerald Envy and Flirty Flamingo.

The last row is a row of cross stitch using Linen Thread and a piercing tool. I really enjoyed sewing on my card front, it’s quite therapeutic I must do this again soon.

Thank you for visiting today. If you’ve not seen last week’s part 1, you can start hopping that one here. The next stop on the farewell hop is my lovely talented friend Kylie Bertucci. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!

Farewell Spring/Summer Blog Hop

So I’ve chosen to show you the cute Easter Lamb stamp set. It’s designed to be a stamp for Easter, but I couldn’t resist using this on a baby card. I’ve got my Aqua Painter out and watercoloured him in, using a variety of colours, Pear Pizzazz, Soft Sky and Wisteria Wonder.

The little flowers are from the stamp set Something for Baby, can you see what colour they are? I’ve added a touch of a new In Colour called Peekaboo Peach.

The base card is also a brand new In Colour called Dapper Denim, I LOVE this colour. It’s your classic denim jean colour and it’s gorgeous! I’m so pleased we have this colour coming on 1st June.

Here’s a peek at the new In Colour Ruched Ribbon I’ve used down the side of the card. Eeeeek!! Look out for a ribbon share coming soon!

Thank you for visiting today. I’d love to see you back here again next Friday 13th May for Part 2 of our Spring/Summer Farewell 2016. The next stop on the farewell hop is my lovely talented friend Kylie Bertucci. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!
