With Love Kit

Good morning.  I have a new kit debuting today over at Xanderous Crafty Stash in the Refresh Sale.

With Love Kit 

There is a lot to play with in this mini kit.

There are 8 sheets of 6x6 inch heavy weight paper (200gsm), four of which are speciality papers and 4 of which are double sided.
All kits need a bit of bling in my opinion so in this kit you will receive a vial each of Silver grey, New blue and Ivory 2mm flat back pearls.  You will also receive 50 each of those colours in the 4mm flat back pearls.  In addition, you will receive a vial of 2mm White diamond rhinestones, 50 White diamond 4mm rhinestones and 50 Black diamond 4mm rhinestones.

Lace is another essential.  In this kit you will receive a length of ecru daisy trim, a length of gorgeous white double scalloped lace, some delicate burgundy trim and a length of dusky pink deep scalloped lace.

In this kit you will receive two bronze tone hollow roses, two 3D trumpet flowers, three oblong cross wraps, one large bronze tone dragonfly, two small bronze tone dragonflies, and three double connector flowers.

You know I love an applique.  In this kit you will find a large and a small white rose applique, you will also receive three white bow appliques.  You will also receive two white and silver, double sided "With Love" tags, ten 15mm white mulberry roses and a length of silver bling mesh.

All of this for just £12 including P&P
(£10 if bought by 9pm Friday 17th March)

Thanks for visiting

Refresh Special part 4

Welcome back. 

Today I have three brand new items for you.


Special #10
Brand new to XCS is "Bee Time".  This will usually be priced at 70p, but from today until Friday 17th March Bee time will be 55p.
Special #11
Another newbie to XCS is the "Bling tail cat".  I have called it the bling tail cat as that tail just begs to be blinged.  I have already tried with 2mm flat back pearls.  The bling tail cats will normally be priced at 15p each, but from today until Friday 17th March, they will be just 10p each.

Special #12 has a lot of photos so I will create that as a separate blog post.

See you soon

The Refresh Sale

Hello every one

After a good month with out a working laptop, I'm finally back online.  So as a way to refresh and revitalise things I am having a REFRESH sale which will run for five days starting Monday 13th of March.


This will be similar to the "12 Days of Christmas" sale in that not every thing will go up on day one.

For each of the five days of the sale I will be presenting to you THREE special offers.  So that is 15 special offers in all, over the five day sale.

All that you need to do is check in each day to see what has been posted and select which items you would like to buy.  The main bulk of the items will be posted on the first day, but the special offers will not go up until they go live.  These offers will only be available until Friday 17th March.

I'm off to finish working out which special offers to show you first.

Catch up with you soon.

I'm so excited - Part 3

Hello again.

This is the third and final part of "I'm so excited.  In this post I would like to introduce you to

The Dragonfly Kit


There is so much to show you in this kit 
and it is extra blingy as you will see.


In this kit you will receive six designer papers.  two are embossed on the designs, two are glitter embossed, one is pearlised and one is double sided.


You will also receive one roll (1 meter) of dragonfly grosgrain ribbon, one roll (1 meter) pink organza ribbon, one roll (1 meter) natural trim, two leaf appliques, one luxury beaded and pearled applique.


I addition to every thing so far, you will also receive a length of coffee coloured lace, a length of gold lace, a length ivory flower lace, a copper key, six assorted buttons, five flat back ivory resin embellishments, five gold spacer beads and ten gold flower beads.


The kit needed more metal, so you will also receive three skelly leaves, a silver filigree heart, four bronze tone double cut corners, four silver tone double cut corners and three rose bud charms.

Now for the bling. In this kit you will receive 50 ivory 4mm flat back pearls, 50 light pink 4mm rhinestones, 50 white diamond 4mm rhinestones, 50 burgundy 4mm flat back pearls, 50 peach 4mm flat back pearls and a bag of clear scatter diamonds.

Again.  This is a limited edition kit.
There are only three available

(that includes the £5.50 P&P)

You can see the Dragonfly kit, the Verdigreen kit and the Keys to Spring kit and more  in the sale over at Xanderous Crafty Stash on Facebook. 

I'm so excited - Part 2

Hello again.

I had wanted to do this post yesterday, but my laptop would not play ball.

I am proud and excited to bring you the 

Verdigreen Kit


This is a 12x12 kit so it is great for larger projects.


 In this kit you will receive one sheet of grey cardstock and five designer papers, two of which are glitter embossed (they wont shed glitter) and one that is  pearlised.


You will also receive a wooden frame, a roll (1 meter) of latte organza ribbon, a roll (1 meter) of natural trim, a length of gold lace, a length of ivory crispy ribbon and a luxury beaded and pearled applique.


Just in case that wasn't enough ribbon and lace for you, you will also get a length of natural cotton trim, a length of dark chocolate stretchy lace and a length of  mesh ribbon.

XCS VIP Club

Good morning.

I have a sale starting today, so I wanted to tell you all about the XCS VIP club.

Joining the XCS VIP club is very easy.  All you need to do is to spend £10 or more in one order and you will automatically be added as a VIP member.

What is the benefit of being an XCS VIP member?

The XCS VIP members get to see every thing first!!

The VIP sale happens the week before the general sale and since all of the new items are shown in the sale first (before I put pictures up on the wall) they get to buy it all first.  This could mean that there are items that you may not get to see until they are reordered if they sell out.

In addition to this.  Every time there is a sale on, the XCS VIP Club members will get a one off special offer that is exclusive to VIP club members only.

If you have any questions about becoming an XCS VIP Club member, please ask.

I'm off to start putting items off in the sale.

I will catch up with  you all soon.

Bling bling

Happy new year to you all

Today is the launch of the first ever VIP sale and in it I am launching the RHINESTONE BLING and BLING STORAGE AND TOOLS.

I thought it important that I explain how this all works for both the rhinestones and the pearls.

The 4mm bling (this means both pearls and rhinestones) are pick and mix and just like in the sweet shop, you get one bag and you put every thing in that you want.  Just say how many packs or lots of each colour that you want. You get 50 bling of that colour in one lot/pack.

If you really need your colours separate, please mention that in the comments when you indicate what you want to buy.

The 2mm bling (2mm pearls are coming soon) will come in vials. One colour per vial.


The vials are great, because you can top them up with more of the same colour and they are an easy way to store your bling on a shelf or in a drawer/box

I am only going to be selling bling in two sizes for now.  2mm and 4mm, but I am offering the AB bling in three sizes.  2mm, 3mm and 4mm


This picture is obviously not actual size.

Watch out for a video coming soon of how I work with bling.  Showing what tools and adhesives I use and some little tips on how to get your bling exactly where you want on your projects.

If you are new to XCS, please check us out on Facebook.  I will put a post up soon on how to become a VIP member and what the benefits are of becoming a VIP member.

I had better get that sale started.

Take care and happy crafting :)
