Update
Posted by Claire Brennan on October 26, 2009.
EDIT – the release has started on my blog, but I’m leaving this post on the store for another day or so since it contains the competition!!!
Orders
Ok, I took the opportunity to post off all the outstanding orders I got during the strike, NI did not seem particularly badly affected by the two day strike and I was receiving mail as normal today. I spoke to a couple of folks I ‘know’ in the Royal Mail and decided to get everything away this morning.
The Royal Mail are having further strike action later this week again and I will deal with that as best I can as before. I will post updates here!
Vintage Labels No.4
I am still taking names for the waiting list, I was hoping to have stock tomorrow but it will not be arriving until Friday at the earliest. I will email folks on the waiting list and post here when they come in. Folks on the waiting list will be guaranteed a set each, if you need a couple of these sets do let me know when you email me to get on the list I’m at: claire.brennan1@ntlworld.com
Earth Angel
This set is now out of stock, it will be approximately 3 weeks before I have them in again.
Next Release
I’m hoping to start the next release in a couple of days!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Has anyone noticed the mystery set in the store? I’m taking guesses here!!! The first person to correctly guess what the set will be will win one!!! Remember, post your comment here by clicking on the All News link (below) – this will take you to the news page for the store. If you click on the header of this post entry (update) a page will open where you can leave a comment!!
Please note: The nature of this set is such that I will have to censor/delete the winner’s comment!!! OOH mystery!!! LOVE IT!!
Wow, all I have to say is that there are a lot of great ideas in these guesses!!!
A flower set maybe?
ok another guess……how about spiders and snakes?? I have no idea why I came up with those other than I don’t think they’ve been mentioned! lol
Perhaps some winter images like snowflakes, trees with snow, etc.
I’m going to guess Secret Santa set because it’s a, well…SECRET! Yikes, Claire, you really have us guessing! XO
Lordee, but there are a lot of ideas! I’m still on the baking theme: how about cupcakes? Build-a-cuppy maybe?
I’m grabbing at fine straws here – you are good at this, Claire-lol!
or Secret Santa…
one more guess: a set for doing secret sister stuff or RAKs with? Or secret admirers?
oooh— just had another idea: the 2010 Winter Olympics?
Hmmm, I’m thinking it’s something naughty and probably sexy for sure…how about a Sentiments set for Lovers (wink, wink, if you know what I mean!!) for Valentine’s Day
My second guess is that this will be a customer appreciation reward set and the way to get the password to the secret blog will be to have ordered a certain amount or something. I’m thinking a “stamped by” or logo set of some kind. Something exclusive that people can use to show off how much they love your company with. hehe
My first guess is that you have licensed or made an agreement with another manufacturer to use their product with your stamp images. Like maybe you have a deal to use Martha Stewart punches or Fiskars’ or somebody’s exclusive punch designs, and you have stamp images to go with them. Or stamps that fit into Cricut shapes? Or maybe you have designed stamps to go with a company’s paper line? Either that or you have licensed a company’s artwork or logo or name or something.
How about a set to dress up those great tower boxes you make?? With windows and house stuff, etc
OK another guess… maybe a special stamp set to make cards for your “other half”….? Angela xxx.
Seeing as you love Christmas – What about Father Christmas and his sleigh with Rudolph or maybe in his workshop. Sarah xxx
I think I’m done with guessing now……unless I have a brainsnap overnight and think of something truly Uh-may-ZING!!
Can’t wait for the new releases. Loved the look of today’s sneak. xxx
or a set based around all the Jewish holidays for the year…..I’m a good little Christian girl….but I have plenty of friends who are Jewish and often need to create a little something for whichever particular holiday/holy day it is.
How about a Mother’s Day/Father’s Day set – lots of pretty flowers and sentiments……or male images and sentiments??
Or maybe its a digital release of either an existing set or a new set!!
See…..I’m not very good at thinking outside of the square. Its why I buy the stamps to use and don’t “create” them for myself, lol!!
Or a hope you’re feeling better/get well set……I know I’m often in need of a get well card to send to a dear loved one, unfortunately. :(
Wow!! This is sooooo much harder than I thought!!
Everyone’s idea up above sounds so great….yet I can see their answer so I know its obviously not correct. ;)
How about a “Causes” set – something for Breast Cancer or Ovarian Cancer….or even Prostate Cancer…..something that will also have some funds donated to a specific cause, hence the need for “special” passwords, etc.
Okay, here’s my second guess. I’m going to say that you’re going to make a stamp set that would be similar to your Country Stencil Quilts. The set would include different quilt blocks, as well as a frame to place the different quilt blocks. Is that it? LOL Boy, I sure hope so because I’m am completely stumped otherwise!!
Okay, Claire – my next guess is “Secret Santa”!
(3rd time’s a charm, isn’t it?) :)
Thanks for all the fun!
Well, how about a toy chest?
How about gingerbread cookies we’ll be able to make as Santa or Mrs. Claus?
