It's Time to Celebrate - Sneak Peek - New Catalogue Tomorrow!

So tomorrow the new Stampin' Up! Catalogue launches and that means you will be able to order lots of lovely new goodies including the ones I am going to show you today.  It also means that today is the last day you can order from the retiring list and the Spring Summer Catalogue so do be sure you have ordered everything you want!

Today I am showing you two new products, the lovely In This Together Stamp Set and the wonderful new Stampin' Blendabilities - the new alcohol based markers.  I am totally in love with these - they are so so easy to use and the colours flow into each other beautifully to give great results even first time out.
How pretty is that!  I have used the Coastal Cabanna and Rich Razzelberry Assortments along with the Skin Tones Set.  The images were stamped with Momento Ink which does not run with these markers.
And did you spot the coloured rhinestones?  Well they are our regular rhinestones but coloured with the darkest colour from the Coastal Cabanna and Rich Razzelberry Assortments.
The new catalogue launches tomorrow and you will be able to order all these products!  Be sure to check back to see a copy, and if you would like one in the post do just drop me an email bekka@feeling-crafty.co.uk

MDS Monday - Penguins Make Me Smile

A lot of my friends have been taking part in 100 Days of Happy or taking part in one of the shorter versions where they post about things that they are grateful for.  I love challenges like this and do something similar myself so thought today I would share a page about something, or rather some things, that never fail to make me smile when I see them.  Penguins.
Penguins Make Me Smile Digital Scrapbook Page by Stampin' Up! Uk Independent Demonstrator Bekka - check her blog every Monday for Digital Crafting Inspiration
I took these photos on a recent trip to Whipsnade Zoo with friends, and these little chaps were very popular especially with the younger members of our group.  The page was made using My Digital Studio (MDS) from Stampin' Up! and you can find out more about it here.

I wonder what makes you smile every time?  If I looked at your scrapbooks would I see a page or three about it?  I would love to see you pages

Loving Thoughts and Gingham Garden Washi Tape by Stampin' Up! - The Long Goodbye List

Today I am going to share a card featuring two things I love which are not going to be available after the end of this month and lots of things I am relieved are staying in the new Stampin' Up! Catalogue! Both the Gingham Garden Washi Tape and the Loving Thoughts Stamp Set make me smile when ever I use them.  Here I have combined them on a Crumb Cake base and with the Gorgeous Grunge Stamp Set.
Loving Thoughts and Gingham Garden Dream Card by Bekka - check out her blog for lots of great Stampin' Up! projects from the UK

I have taken my colours from the Washi Tape and added a butterfly which combines butterflies made with the Beautiful Wings Embosslit and the Elegant Butterfly Punch.

I hope today finds you enjoying a dream or two and possibly making them come true.  I know the recipient of this card will be!

Find Out About Friday - Bekka's Stampin' Up! Story

Six year's ago this week I made a decision that was going to have a far bigger impact on my life than I ever imagined it would - I joined Stampin' Up! so for this week's Find Out About Friday I thought I would share my Stampin' Up! Story.
Read Bekka's Stampin' Up! Story here - this could be you!
Six years ago I was in the process of being made redundant from a role that I loved for a fantastic company, working with some incredible people.  I loved what I did but was away from home more than I was there and was working some crazy hours. So rather than just jump into something similar I took the opportunity to think about what I wanted to do differently.  I had always loved crafting and making cards but was almost never in the same place as my crafting kit and I knew I wanted to do more crafting and I know I felt a bit guilty about wanting to spend time and money on something I enjoyed rather than at work!  
Read Bekka's Stampin' Up! Story here - this could be you!
I also was going to be living full time in an area where I knew almost no one, so was looking for a way to make friends and had no idea how I was going to fit that in either.
Read Bekka's Stampin' Up! Story here - this could be you!
Then I discovered Stampin' Up! and it seemed to offer me a way to get great products at a discount.  I loved (and still do love) how everything coordinates so you can spend your time making rather than matching colours and products.  I looked into it a little more and discovered that you could even make some money if you crafted with others and my decision was made - it looked like I had found a way to make my crafting pay for itself and make some new friends.
Read Bekka's Stampin' Up! Story here - this could be you!

As I look back now my time with Stampin' Up! has certainly delivered that and much much much more! I don't remember the last time I paid for a new stamp set, I have made incredible friends, I am a better crafter than when I started and I have learned so much about myself. Stampin' Up! and the friends all over the world that I have made because of Stampin' Up!  have been what has given me the confidence and self belief to keep going during some tough times and for that I am extremely grateful.
Read Bekka's Stampin' Up! Story here - this could be you!
I have also been fortunate enough to earn four mind blowing holidays and see some beautiful places and experience some amazing things.
Read Bekka's Stampin' Up! Story here - this could be you!
Over the last six year's my life and my business have changed many times and I am thankful that I have had the flexibility to do that.  Through that time I have consistently been one of the top UK demonstrators and am fortunate enough to have a wonderful team and some lovely customers.  I don't know what the next six years will bring but I am excited about it!  At the moment my house is undergoing some major renovations and one of the things I am excited about is having a craft room built!
Read Bekka's Stampin' Up! Story here - this could be you!
Thank you to each of you for being part of this exciting journey and for the inspiration.

Tag It by Stampin' Up! - The Long Goodbye List

Today I am sharing some more blast from the past cards featuring the lovely Tag It Stamp Set by Stampin' Up! which is only available until the end of this month or while stocks last. As well as being a fab set to use coordinating with the Chalk Talk Framelits, this stamp set is wonderful in another way too - For each set purchased Stampin' Up! donate £2 to Ronald McDonald House Charities.  So buying this stamp set is a great way to make a charitable donation while getting something lovely for yourself or as a gift.  You can find this stamp set and all the others that are leaving our range here.
