I Spy A Sequin Train?

I just love introducing my readers to new {to me} companies and today I get to do just that. I recently stumbled across the company Clearly Besotted Stamps and was in awe of the vast variety of stamps and dies they design. While I had wanted many of their sets, the Full Steam Ahead set and dies caught my eye first. How cute is that little train?!

Truth be told, I actually received this set before, or right around, the time I first got my first batch of sequins. With my excitement of the sequins taking over my craft life, I didn’t immediately pull out this set. Once I got a little more time and was sparked with some creativity, I decided I was going to try to use the train with my sequins and patterned paper.

I had one of those “I can’t believe I made this” moments when I finished this card. It was exactly how I envisioned and I have to rave about these little dies- they work SO well! I have many more ideas for this train, so don’t be surprised if you see it again in the near future. *wink*

I don’t often work with companies that are outside the United States, mostly due to me being so impatient and wanting the products NOW. With that being said, I was SO impressed with how quickly my order was shipped, the great customer service, the quality of items and the fact that they arrived pretty quickly! It’s a win all the way around!

This stamp set and die set are currently out of stock, but I believe they’re being restocked in the future. I’ll see about getting an ETA and I’ll update this post when I do. :)

*The stamps and dies are scheduled to be restocked on Monday, May 6th!

That’s a wrap for today’s post. I will see you tomorrow for some more sequins AND a video!

  2. Such a fun and unique way to use the sequins! Great card! They do have a lot of cute stamps, the set you used is currently sold out.

  3. What a darling card! AND I browsed the company and their prices are so ‘reasonable’ [read: cheap]. It sounds too good to be true but I guess it is true. Are you happy with the quality of their products?

    1. Kathy, yes, I’m VERY happy with the Clearly Besotted products I have used thus far. Granted, it’s only been one stamp set/ die, but they work just like all the other higher priced stamps I have used in the past. :)

  5. Oh Paulina–this is totally adorable! Thanks for introducing me to a new company. I’ll be checking them out.

  6. Well now just how CUTE is this!! What a fun idea Paulina and thanks for the info on the new company ;)

  7. Wow – this is SOOO cute – I love CB stamps but I would never have thought to make cargo from sequins. So pretty and genius idea!

  10. Paulina, I read all the emails I get from your blog. I smile, laugh, and cry at all the wonderful things you write which are fun, sweet, and inspiring. My apologies that I don’t always take the time to comment. I feel like I am always in a hurry when I’m on my computer. BUT, I simply could NOT resist taking a few moments to tell you how utterly ADORABLE and FABULOUS this card is! You truly knocked my socks off (ok…confession, I’m not wearing socks, but my slippers slid right off!). This card is absolute perfection! It should be framed! BRAVO!!! One of my all-time favorites (and that is saying a lot because you make TONS of cards which I adore…side note: I still think about how awesome those sequin butterflies are). Keep those brilliant cards coming! Can’t wait to see what other masterpieces you share with us!

  13. Your card is fabulous and so bang on trend with the sequins! Thank you very much for making these stamps look so good and also for such positive feedback on the quality – MUCH appreciated :) xxx
