Goodbye 'Mixed Bouquet'


'How lucky I am to have something
that makes saying goodbye so hard'

Carol Sobieski and Thomas Meehan, Annie

Fortunately we do not have to say goodbye to chocolate, however, we must farewell two beautiful stamps on March 31st to make way for new catalogue stamp sets and accessories. Mixed Bouquet (108871 $68.95AUD) and Bouquet Jumbo Wheel (105750 $15.95 AUD) are both to be found on page 74 of the 2007/2008 Australian Idea Book & Catalogue. I am particularly fond of these stamps and have used them at many workshops, including my February workshops where we made a 'Pull Treat Pouch'. This project was inspired by a workshop by Beate Johns on Split Coast Stampers Web Site www.splitcoaststampers.com and altered to accomodate our Australian Darrel Lea chocolate bars and the stamps sets that I had available. It was great fun making this project as it was quite straightforward, requiring no template, with a fantastic result. The only hard part was making sure workshop participants did not eat their chocolate bar, before completing the project!
