New Cosmic Shimmer and other shop news

Hi

Here's what's been happening in our shop recently.

Cosmic Shimmer has released 2 new products for crafters, Gilded Touch and Glossy Glaze.

Cosmic Shimmer Gilded Touch is a rich, water based wax allowing you to easily create a shimmering metallic effect on any crafting, mixed media or home décor project. It is supplied in an 18ml tube which allows you to squeeze out just the right quantity for your project. Then simply apply in a circular motion with a sponge, dauber, cloth or even your finger. It is fast drying and non-toxic, and when dry is water and fade resistant. It is available for you to purchase now in 10 rich colours!

Cosmic Shimmer Glossy Glaze is a translucent tinted water based dimensional gel with a glossy finish which is suitable for use on most surfaces. Designed by Cosmic Shimmer in conjunction with Jamie Rodgers, this gel remains flexible when dry so can easily be die cut to create embellishments. Apply with brush, spatula or sponge through stencils to create some unique effects.

Both products are easy to clean up with soap and water and on top of that they are both made in the UK!

There are also 2 new Woodware stencils, designed by Francoise Read, Wiggles and Pebble Dash which are ideal for adding texture to any craft project.

Just in case you missed it there are some new Stamperia collections, You and Me - a wedding/romance collection and Garden of Promises - a floral collection. There are papers available in various sizes including 6"x6", 8"x8" and 12"x12" as well as some co-ordinating stencils. There are also 3 handmade paper flower packs for embellishing your projects.

We have also restocked various products including DecoArt Patio paints, ready for brightening up your outside areas (you'll find ideas and projects using these paints in our Inspiration section). We have also restocked some Tim Holtz Distress ink pads and sprays as well as some Woodware stamps (and the one and only Woodware die, designed by Jane Gill for creating bubbles to decorate her bubble stamp designs).

Check out all of the above and much more over on the website! Clicking on a product image will take you to the relevant section of our website in a new tab/window, or hovering over text will show you where there's a link you can click on.

Bye for now!
