If Carlsberg were glitter card ….

….. then it would have to be the NEW Stampin Up! Silver glitter card !

Although described as silver glitter card, it is more of an Ice White colour,  and therefore UTTERLY FANTASTIC, for adding a drop of Stampin Up! re-inker, and changing it into ANY COLOUR GLITTER CARDSTOCK THAT YOU WANT !

Seriously …. just add ONE teeny tiny drop of SU! re-inker, smooch it over the glitter silver cardstock with a dauber– and voila – any colour you want ! As you can see from my two samples below (sorry for poor quality of the photograph – but the sparkle is that bright, that it distorts the photo) … I used melon mambo re-inker and tempting turqoise.   I didn’t want the colour ‘in your face’, so I smooched it into a thin coating.  However, you can smooch it in with an aqua pen filled with rubbing alcohol, and the colour will become more vibrant !

AND …. the piece de resistance … the glitter does not flake off the cardstock – what more could you want ?!!!!

The Silver Glitter cardstock is £4.50 for TWO 12x12 sheets, and the re-inkers are only £2.75 each and they last for ….. well forever !!  Bargain or what ?!!!!

ALSO DON’T FORGET – the new Stampin Up! trimmer is now available – ONLY £25.95 and the measurements are in cm’s AND inches – so win-win !!!!  (see yesterday’s post for full details on the NEW trimmer) … you soooooo need one !!

Happy Crafting !

It’s Here !!!!!!!!!!!

The New Stampin' Trimmer

Introducing the new and improved Stampin' Trimmer! Although paper trimmers are a common crafting tool, this trimmer was designed exclusively by paper crafters for paper crafters-and because it was made by Stampin' Up!, you know it's a cut above the rest!

*An extra-wide 6-1/4" cutting base and an extended 14-1/2" ruler
*The extra-wide cutting base provides a large work area and is marked in 1/4" (4 mm) increments, allowing for small measurements. 
*The right-side grid helps you measure and cut very thin strips.
*The extended cutting arm has a stabilizing leg to provide a sturdy and steady cutting surface for longer cuts. 
*When fully extended, the extended cutting arm sits flush with the trimmer base, providing more accurate and consistent measurements across the entire surface.
*The cutting base and track include a full ruler, incorporating measurements down to 1/16" and grid lines that mark each quarter inch. 
*All rulers and measurements on the base are printed under a plastic cover so your measurements won't wear off.
*The base has nonskid feet, which keeps the Stampin' Trimmer securely in place on your work area.
*A full 12" cutting and scoring track
*The extra-long cutting track has space at the top and bottom so you don't have to take the cutting and scoring blades out when you're not using them. 
*The track gives you enough space to cut or score a full 12" (30.5 cm) without having to remove or switch out handles. 
*The cutting track locks in place for secure storage or transport. 
*The track includes an insertion point for cutting and scoring blade handles so you can easily insert handles into the cutting track.
*Specially designed handles and cutting track to ensure straight cuts
*The hook on the scoring and cutting blade handles keeps the handles stable so the cuts are as straight as possible.
*Handles come in two colors: dark for cutting, light for scoring. 
*The precision tip on the cutting blade allows you to pinpoint precisely where you're cutting.
*The point on the side of each handle shows you where the blade will cut, making it easy to see exactly where your cuts and scores will begin.
*Storage compartment under base
*The storage compartment holds scoring and cutting tools such as a Bone Folder, Simply Scored Stylus, extra scoring and cutting blades, and even business cards. 
*Separate compartments within the storage compartment keep your tools organized, and the clear cover makes it easy to see what you've stored.
