Time to update you on all the latest arrivals at Quixotic Paperie!

The latest release from The Greeting Farm is now in stock!  There is the sweet new Oh Boy Ian and Sweet Anya along with Sweet n Toxic - an awesome new set featuring the Creepy Crew!

I also have a couple of brand new CC Designs cuties in stock!  Meet Peter and Fiona from the retailer exclusive Fairy Tales collection.

 

Don't forget - I also have a wide range of the older CC Designs stamps available at bargain prices!  Stocks are getting very low on most of the designs, so don't hesitate if there are some you're after!  Once they are gone, they won't be coming back!

I've also taken delivery of a delightful box of Belles 'n Whistles stamps.  Lots of popular designs all back in stock in high quality photo-polymer.  If you love Elisabeth Bell's designs, you're sure to find something you like!

I do still have some of the old red rubber stamps from Belles 'n Whistles available at the fab price of £5.00 each.  Stocks are low on these now, so grab them while you can, they won't be available in rubber again!

As always, all the latest goodies can be viewed with ease under "New Products" at http://www.quixoticpaperie.co.uk/

That's all for now!  Hope you're having a good week!

Genevieve Explores The World

Hey guys, I thought I would show you a card I did recently using one of my favourite Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Genevieve. I got her from Quixotic Paperie a while ago and have been wanting to ink her up for ages and just had not got around to it until this card.

I've added a bit of inking and corrugated card, also add a bit of stitching and some French knots in the bottom right had corner, you might have to click on the picture to see them.

Isn't she fab?

Have a great day.

Kim
