Colour Your World Blog Hop August – Watercolour Christmas + Clearance Rack Update

Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Colour Your World Blog Hop August – Watercolour Christmas

QUICK UPDATE!!!

Before I get onto today’s blog post and hop, I’ve just had notification that we’ve had a Clearance Rack Update. A quick look shows me loads of fabulous items, but I doubt they’ll be around long. So go grab a bargain quickly!!

Link is HERE for you. Xx

Happy August Everyone! It’s blog hop time going round the world on a colour challenge. And boy did I get challenged this time around!

I decided to play the irony card here with what is a very summery palette and work it into a Christmas Card.

I’ve always liked to make non-traditional Christmas Cards. I remember when I first started making cards, when my eldest son was a baby, and that year everyone received either purple or pink mirror cards with silver detailing on!

Who says Christmas has to be ‘traditional’ colours. So as a nod to those cards from 14 years ago, I brought in the silver heat embossing to use with the Watercolour Christmas stamp set that comes out in a couple of weeks on September 1st.

Isn’t it gorgeous?

So, I hope you like my watercoloured Christmas card with those fabulous Summer colours!

Pootles’ Picks Shopping Gifts

Everyone who shops with me gets a handmade card and gift in the post. Sometimes the gift is a handcrafted item, sometimes it’s a product share, sometimes it’s something else entirely!

And every person gets that, regardless of how large or small your order is. I am grateful to everyone who shops with me.

I do however also have a Hostess Code and always share the goodies out amongst everyone who uses it. This month, I’m trialling something different.

USE CODE Y6VP29FF

• Spend over £50/€65 and receive the divine Metallic Edge Ribbon in Silver worth £6.25/€8.50
• Spend over £100/€135 and receive the utterly beautiful Background Bits stamp set worth £19/€25
• If you’d still like to use the code and be part of the collective, but your order is under £50, please feel free to use it and I’ll make sure to pop a little something extra in your parcel!
• If your order is over £150/€200 please do not use the code as you will be your own Hostess and get your own rewards to spend!
