Have you been or are you going.
Well if you are then you must checkout the stall TIME FOR TEA

Yes Jo does Rubber and Clear stamps now so check them out.
Now if you cant get there they will be available to purchase from the website on Monday.
For those that get the newsletter you will have seen some of the samples made with the clear stamps.
You can find lots of info at the following sites

Also we are still running our July challenge and our theme is At The Beach

Now i  promised you a sneak peep and this is one of the cards i made with the fabulous new Clear stamps
Mew Are Pawsome
I made 4 cards with this set and will share them all in due course
This one features all the stamps and most of the little embellishments and words
 Now dont you think these kitties are cute I wonder if their mum or day was a ginger tabby and i bet the other was a black cat
i have coloured the images with promarkers
Dp is from a very old pad
 The box one of the kitties in in has had paw prints stamped onto it
Also did you know that there is a set of dies to go with this set to cut your images out with.
Mine was hand cut as they hadnt come in yet
I have used spellbinder die for the frames
the hats have glitter pen added to them
The sentiments where stamped to make the saying

Well this is just 1 idea but i am sure you could come up with many as all the elements to customise your cards are there.

Oh did i say that Jo has some awesome Rubber stamps too that are larger in size so there is something for everyone. I cant wait to see the rubber ones as we only got to see the ones that she sent us.
