A Formal Affair

Alison Ellis Design has just released a new range of papers!
A Formal Affair features rich and elegant colours and designs embossed with gold and silver foil.
Here is a sneak peek at some of the papers in the 'Cocktail Dress' colour scheme. Just gorgeous. Unfortunately because of the foil they do not photograph well. Add to that being squished into your computer monitor....well, picture on the screen just does not do them justice!

doilies, doilies, doilies...

Doilies are back at Aunty Vera's.

In packs of 25 and available in 6 different sizes you'll be wanting a pack for the craft room, a pack for the kitchen and a pack just because they're so gorgeous!

Pre-order them here: Aunty Vera's Doilies

Aunty Vera goes BRAD MAD!!

Heaps of great new brads have arrived and I've been having lots of fun unpacking, photographing, uploading into the shop....and of course planning MY brad projects :)

Some great themes are now in store - pencils, crayons and paint splashes for your pre-school and first day of school layouts; heart and wedding brads for LOVEly cards and layouts; and of course a great range of Easter brads because time, it does fly, and that bunny will be hopping through here before we know it.

Time DOES fly!!!

OOPS - Is it March already?

Ok, ok, I have no excuse. But really, how did it get to be March when only yesterday I was unpacking Christmas chipboard? Very bad Aunty Vera!! Well, let's try again then.

Not an excuse I know, but things have been really busy in Aunty Vera Land with the e-rennovation of our new-look website. A work in progress - but life always is. Amazing how long it actually takes to move products from one e-shelf onto another. But the main work is almost done and looking very pink :)

We'll be adding great new goodies every day. And keeping you updated through our blog (yeah, yeah, let's not go there!)

Rudolph card packs just arrived

Reindeers are pretty big at my place. With all the fun of the Silly Season, it's always the reindeer who are well and truly the silliest. Last year they got into our freezer on Christmas Eve when all the family were asleep. They ate some of the ice-cream cake, left a terrible chocolate ice-cream mess on the kitchen counters, and wrote crazy (and mis-spelt) messages on the kids' notes to Santa. Nothing sillier than a reindeer on a chocolate high!!

So I was pretty excited when I saw these great card packs from 2Crafty. Each pack has four 'Rudolphs' that can be used on your Christmas cards or layouts. With a bit of imagination you can really have some fun with these. I'm thinking napkin rings, place-cards....the whole Christmas table gone mad and silly with reindeers!

They are available now in my Christmas aisle.
