A Few More Wine Samples

Here are a couple more wine card samples but this time they have been made using the images from the second plate of stamps called Wine Labels.  This set will be part of the the multi buy and it will be shown on Monday's show for the first time.  These stamps are lovely and have been designed by Sam Poole to go together nicely with her Vintage Wine set. 

Just a little teaser about the show on Monday, not only is it a premiere for this new stamp set, but they are also going to be offered as scrolled stamp sets.  That means that the rubber has already been mounted to U mount and the images have been cut out so all you need to do is peel away the backing paper and put them on your acrylic block to stamp them!  How easy is that!  All the work has been done for you so you can get right in there and have a play once you receive them!

I have really enjoyed having a play with these as they lend themselves to so many styles and techniques.  These two samples lean more towards a softer less grungey look, but I love that you can get both distinct looks from the same stamp sets.  More value for your money!  Let me know what you think of the different styles. Favor the grungey or do you lean towards the more elegant look in a card?  Love to know!

As I have been frantically getting everything ready for the show, I haven't had a chance yet to put together the new blog candy prize.  Don't worry, the contest marches on and hopefully I will be able to show the pic of the new prize in a few days.  Remember, you get extra entries for leaving comments so that I know you have been here.  All for now, Sue x

  8. I just got watching the show today as yesterday I was out. I like the aged grungy cards for the males and I love that top card for females. Can we have instructions to make those flowers, they are fab looking. I played a little with the wine stamps today in conjunction with the create a scene "pub", they work well together!

  16. Usually the softer, more detailed look in stamping is my preference, but I love the collage, grungy look when someone else does it! I need more practice I think!
    Thanks for sharing! :o)
