Pumpkins and Witches and A Sneak Peek!

 So after Royal Mail completely stuffed up the tracking number for my stencil I had ordered from Sweet Poppy, the stencil finally arrived this morning. Five minutes before the stencil arrived, I had (once again) tried to track it, but it kept saying either the tracking needed updating, and/or it was the incorrect tracking number! Talk about frustrating. Next thing, my mail lady was at my door with a package for me. Unbelieveable. I don't know how or why Royal Mail stuffed it up so badly, but I had not been able to track the item once on it's ten day journey from the UK. According to Sweet Poppy customer service, it had landed in NZ on the 16th, but still no tracking. Ok, enough of complaining, 'tis the day to be crafting, and I have been busy! Below is the card I made,. thanks to Eileen Godwin and her fabulous video! There are a couple of whoopsie-mistakes, but overall I am very happy how it turned out! I know I will make more of these cards, I want to make one in hot pink and purple colours, lol!

The pumpkin stencil measures about 6x4 inches, and is made from Steel. The 3 Witches are from Lavinia Stamps. These Witches are the smaller ones. To find the video, go to you tube and type in Eileen Godwin. When you get there, type in Sweet Poppy Stencils - Beautiful Pumpkins! My comment is there under KiwiSunshine.

Below is a photo of the stencil.

I wish I could buy Sweet Poppy products here in NZ or even across the ditch in Australia, instead of the UK. Onto some other news! Lavinia Stamps are bringing out a new range of stamps on the 24th of this month!! (UK date)The brand new "Starlight Whispers"! If you want to see them, there is a short video on you tube called,  The brand NEW Starlight Whispers Collection. Tracey Dutton, owner and designer of Lavinia Stamps, show cases the new range. I look forward to ordering them! I already have some ideas buzzing around in my head! That's it for now. Thanks for dropping by! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self, and shine bright each and every day!
