New Year, Feeling Great... Julie Nutting My Prima Planners are here!

Hello Crafty Friends!

The year may be well under way but it's never too late to start organising your days, your weeks... your entire year! And we crafty folks... well, we like a planner that we can PLAY in too, not just write dates and appointments. Am I right?

So we are very excited here in Aunty Vera Land to have unpacked a box of My Prima Planners and accessories. We ordered mainly from the Julie Nutting line because... well, you know why! lol
Unfortunately not ALL the accessories we ordered made it here in the current Big Box but how's this for a great start.......

THE planner......... Julie Nutting's A5 Planner "Today I Shall Create Something Beautiful" (and as a special treat we've reduced the price on this one.... simply because we get it! Spending $100 on a planner feels a little ummm... extravagant to say the least!)

Two sets of clear stamps - Holiday Bliss and Make Kindness Happen.

(We expect the other 2 sets - Craft Day and Calendar - to arrive in a couple of weeks time)

Sticker packs!
These 4x4" packs feature 4 sheets in the themes: Party Girls; Lots of Love; Sunny Days and Holidays.

And Washi Stickers! 

These are 6x6" packs of washi strips and die-cut gold-foiled stickers in 4 themes - Winter Time; Paper Dolls; Art Play and Summer Fun.

We are also expecting the monthly themed sticker sets to start arriving soon :)

How's that for a brilliant start to the year?

Gotta run now..... coffee date needs to be added to MY planner!

Prima Marketing Watercolor Pencils and Watercolor Brush Pens

I'm in love!!

Prima Marketing revealed so many great new products at CHA 2015 but this has to be my absolute favourite - Watercolor Pencils (in six different color-themed sets) and Watercolor Brush Pens.

The Watercolor Pencils are fabulous for coloring your stamps. The beautiful pigment colors cover every theme under the sun! There's even a Julie Nutting skin and hair tones set - just perfect for your Julie Nutting Doll Stamps!

Check out the different sets available......

And for blending your watercolor pencil colors? Watercolor Brush Pens of course!!

Simply add water to the brush and blend your colored areas for a perfectly blended watercolor effect...

Did I mention that I'm in love?

Prima Marketing Watercolor Pencils and Watercolor Brush Pens are expected to arrive in Aunty Vera Land mid to late February.

Can't wait!!

25 Days of Christmas 2013 - Day 6...More Christmas Cards

I've been super busy making lots and lots of Christmas cards. This afternoon was Production Line Quick & Simple cards using Echo Park Reflections Christmas papers.....

Don't you just love the bingo card design from the Christmas Games paper? And I just adore the reindeer design on the Border Strips page....

A little bit of bling adds a special touch to even the simplest cards.

Here is one of the gorgeous Bo Bunny Silver & Gold trinkets.....

Sticky Bling Runners make laying out lines of gems so easy........

Embellishments don't have to come from Christmas collections - here is a lovely rose from the Prima 'Engraver' collection....

Prima Engraver Layout

Hi Scrappy Bloggers!

Prima Engraver is such a gorgeous collection - perfect for vintage themed projects and also for those 'male' layouts that really don't want a lot of pretty colours (lol).
Here's a real Boy page using papers and flowers from the collection (with a little Idea-ology metal)...

Hope you're all keeping warm and crafty....or cool if you live in a 'summertime now' country!
