I shared on Tuesday the gorgeous Frienship Folder well tomorrow I’m doing a Stamp A Stack where the ladies asked for cards using stamp sets from the new Summer Mini Catalogue. I had a great time creating the cards last night and want to share with you one of them today.

I just love how this card turned out! Its so simple yet elegant at the same time.

I’ve started with stamping the dragonfly from Nature’s Nest in Jet Black Stazon Ink onto Watercolor Paper. I’ve coloured him in using my aqua painter and the ink from the Classic Stampin’ Ink Pads.  The Happiness sentiment (from Warm Words stamp set) is stamped in Not Quite Navy ink.  The dragonfly image is then layered on Bashful Blue then Not Quite Navy. I’ve layered a piece from Urban Garden Designer Series Paper and dressed it up with a lovely piece of white grosgrain ribbon. Simple hey?

Now with my share the other day I talked about the blue eggs and yes as some of you shared it was the Robin I was thinking of and originally thought the Emu to have blue eggs however on researching their eggs seem to be more of a dark Jade shade.

I did some research on the dragonfly too while doing this card last night. It seems that if you are given a dragonfly that you should then hear ‘good news’ and I do have some good news for you today!

It appears that a few of the popular products from the Spring Mini Catalogue are still available for purchase even though the sales period for the mini is now over. Now not only are they still available but these products will also be available in next year’s Idea Book & Catalogue.

Here is a list of the still-available products:

How good is that??

So if these are items you’d like to still get and didnt get a chance in the Spring Mini Catalogue then you can still order them – pretty cool huh?

Just a reminder that if you want anything ordered and to you before Christmas you will need to get your orders and payment to me by 11th December – thats this friday! Also, here’s some more good news, any orders placed and paid for this week (before 11th December) I will pay the postage & handling for you.

Also, I am taking a holiday! Yes you read it right! I will be going to visit my family in Victoria for Christmas so will be leaving here on 20th December and will return back to working on 11th January, 2010.
