January Bargains!

Happy New Year from Foil Play, I hope you are enjoying the year so far.

I've been ruthless and added lots of January bargains to both the Clearance and Special offers sections of Foil Play, to make some room for all the lovely new 2012 crafty goodies, some of which are already on their way, so watch this space!
You'll find bargains galore from top brands such as Kanban, Hunkydory, Craftwork Cards, La Pashe and many more.
I've also revamped the Special offers page, with new featured offers and two extra sections:

• special offers & clearance bargains by brand; and
• a ginormous selection of decoupage and toppers at just 49p a sheet, this includes all of the die cut designs from G18 / National Crafts too

Enjoy browsing and why not bag a few bargains too!

Kanban Steam Punk Jasper stamps

I've finally managed to get my hands on a limited quantity of these sought after Jasper steam punk Kanban clear stamps, I've been told that they won't be released to retail generally, so once they are gone, they'll be gone!

I've also managed to get restocks of the some of the everyday TSV stamps from earlier this year, including the very popular seascape design. All of the Kanban clear stamps can be found here.

As I will be shutting up shop for a break over the festive period on Friday, please don't delay if you'd like to receive your stamps before Christmas!

Christmas break & last posting date

As usual, Foil Play will be taking a break over the festive period. I will be despatching orders as usual until Friday 9 December (my last posting date this year), so there is still time to make any purchases you need before Christmas.

The site will be closed then until shortly after Christmas, which means that you will be able to browse as normal, but as the checkout will be turned off, it won't be possible to actually place any orders. When the site is re-opened after Christmas, there will be lots of tempting sale bargains to look forward to! The first order despatch date after Christmas will be Tuesday 3 January 2012.

Thank you very much indeed for your custom during 2011 - wishing you a very Merry Christmas and all the best for 2012!

Craftwork Cards Frosty & Friends Collection

As you can see from this beautiful array of cards, a cracking new Christmas collection is hot off the presses from Craftwork Cards!
The Frosty & Friends Collection features a delightful selection of cute Christmas characters with co-ordinating papers and die cut embellishments in frosty blue, winter turquoise and buttermilk colourways.
Frosty the snowman and his friends are of course the stars of the collection, they are depicted in line drawings on die cut toppers, which you could use as they are, or colour in highlights with your favourite colouring medium.
There are two new stunning 'flavours' of Card Candi in the collection too - Frosty and Twinkle holographic silver metallic look alike brads, which are sure to add a touch of sparkle to your projects.
The Frosty & Friends Christmas collection includes:

• 6 x 6 inch Frosty Christmas paper pack - 24 sheets, half of which are silver foiled;
• Frosty & Friends large die cut colour me toppers (three different options);
• Frosty & Friends mini die cut colour me toppers;
  
• Top Notch and Elegant die cut embellishments;
• Die cut Christmas flowers;
• Die cut button messages;
• Frosty and Twinkle holographic silver Card Candi.

You can pick and choose which elements of the collection you purchase, Foil Play is selling all of the die cut sheets individually, rather than in packs.
As always at Foil Play, p&p is free on all orders over £5.00.

Dufex individual picture prints

Dufex picture prints are great for cardmaking, and versatile too - you can either use them individually to make a stunning centrepiece, or if you have more than one of the same design, you can decoupage them to add extra layers / dimension.
Some of the prints have a panel design, so you could if you wish cut them into a number of individual toppers, making them very good value indeed.
Sadly, Dufex has now discontinued the smaller range of prints which were particularly suitable for cardmaking, including series 13, 14 and postcards.
I have stocked up on the remaining prints that Dufex had in stock and have some lovely new toppers listed now, including Christmas and religious designs.
I won't be able to restock the majority of print designs when they sell out, so if there are some that you particularly like, please stock up now and don't miss out!

Craftwork Cards Warren Christmas Collection

This gorgeous selection of cards has been made using the new Craftwork Cards Warren Collection, which features a beautifully co-ordinated selection of toppers, papers, greetings and other embellishments.

The Christmas Warren collection has proved very popular at Foil Play with some elements selling out already, I have just restocked the collection.

As you can see, you can create a huge selection of beautiful cards, each using just a few elements of the collection.
The Warren Christmas collection includes:

• 8 x 8 inch Very Merry paper pack;
• Warren & friends large die cut toppers (five different options);
• Warren & friends mini die cut toppers;
  
• Die cut Very Merry festive bunting;
• Die cut Very Merry festive flowers;
• Die cut button messages;
• Die cut mini foiled messages;
  
• Holly Berries, Very Merry Gold and Very Merry Silver Card Candi.

You can pick and choose which elements of the collection you purchase, Foil Play is selling all of the die cut sheets individually, rather than in packs.
