Stamp release: typewriter and puppy

Two fab new images for you released today! I have been asked for some more animals so I drew a cute little puppy for you - love the cards the Design Team have made with this. The typewriter reminds me of the huge cumbersome typewriter we had when I was a little girl, it was so large and heavy, had keys that got jammed the second you typed too quickly and I can still remember the smell of the ink on the ribbon - oh my how things have changed as I type this out on my fancy laptop! 

In this age of technology when an email or text can send a message across the world in seconds, the delight of getting a handmade card pop through your letterbox means so much more now. The care and time put into your cards takes so much more love and thought than goes into much of our high tech communication - it is more than just an expression of your creativity, it shows you have taken the time to show how much you really care.

The Jellypark Design team have been busy with our new images:

New digi stamps - beautiful tree and swing!

Summer is here and plenty of time for the children to be out playing all day while school is shut - my house and garden is suddenly very noisy and full of my kids and their friends. When I was a little girl a friend of mine had the most wonderful handmade swing hanging from a huge oak tree in her garden - I loved it so much and was very jealous of her! So that inspired me to make the next couple of digital stamps for you - a pretty tree with bunting and a girl playing on a swing :o)

Our lovely Design Team have made these new images jump to life - aren't these cards just wonderful?!! We would love to see any crafts you make with our new digi stamps so please post up some links for us!
