New Stamps are Coming!!! AND Blog Candy

Hello fellow crafters, it is that time again!  What time, you ask?  Time for a new release of stamps.  ArTish has brought us some wonderful and very versatile stamps this round.  For all you fans of Tilda and other "people" stamps, you will find these stamps will work great for backgrounds.  In addition, they are also detailed and nice enough to use as stand alone stamps for those of you who do not use "people" stamps.

The following stamps are red rubber cling foam-backed. They are available for pre-sale presently. Expected to ship towards the end of February. You will find that these stamps are very large, thus would work well on scrapbook pages .




How would you like a chance to win one of these stamps?
Leave me a comment and tell me which one you would pick, and copy and paste a the picture of it on your blog with a link back to this post.

We will announce two winners sometime soon after the end of February.
And be on the watch from some new digitals coming soon.
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week!

The Pixie Cottage Welcomes a New Artist..... Faith Skrdla & BLOG CANDY

First of all, let me apologize for not getting this up earlier. Major computer problems here this week, but I think I am up an running again, minus a chunk full of change.  Gosh, I hate computer issues. So without further ado...............
The Pixie Cottage is thrilled to add a new illustrator to our family!!  Please welcome Faith Skrdla!  You might already know Faith from Designed 2 Delight.  Faith is an illustrator that comes to us from Michigan, here in the USA.  Her delighful style can also be found in digital on her own web site.  But we here at The Pixie Cottage know that there are still many stampers who love their rubber... so we are brining some of her designs to life in red rubber.

We will be starting with this cute stamp set. Three images and two sentiments are included. 
This set comes in red rubber with cling foam backing. It is a 24" sheet that comes uncut.  Perfect for winter projects.
And if you order today you can use the Black Friday/Cyber Monday Coupon Code!


BLOG CANDY
Please leave a comment here and tell me why you would like to win this stamp set. I will choose one random winner on Dec 15th.  We would also love to have you come back and visit us, so if you like, please sign up to follow us.

Have you seen some of the new Pixie Cottage stamps?

I have not been by to post the latest rubber stamps. Shame on me!  They are definitely worth seeing. Sweet Shoppe by ArTish is wonderful alone, but also would make a perfect background stamp for your favorite Tilda stamp.  I can already picture that sweet 60's Tilda sitting on the counter.
I also think The Stockings were Hung  also by ArTish would work perfectly alone or as a background stamp.
Now of course I have some new stamps by Sandra Hammer!!  I know you Hannah fans were waiting for another Hannah for Christmas cards. Hannah's Candle is perfect for that!



And last, but certainly not least, another perfect stamp to stand alone or be used as a background.
Winter Mailbox by Sandra Hammer
Now you can see there really is something for everyone.  Also recently added is a great stamp from ArTish Dashing Through the Sky with some added sentiments, and another Hannah stamp called Hannah's Letter that you can by alone or in a smaller version with a sentiment shown below.  And if you haven't seen the Bird stamp collection you must stop by and check those out, either pick your bird, or buy the whole set!


So there you have it, our latest stamps.  Now I have to mention there will soon be another Christmas Hannah stamp and a new set of stamps from a NEW artist!!!  So be sure to check back. 
Thanks for dropping by.

New Blog Candy Precious Stamps by Lisa Schmidt

Well, I am just so excited to show you these adorable stamps! I could not wait any longer.  Lisa has sent me some adorable drawings and these are just two of them. These will be arriving sometime in the middle of March.  I am calling these stamps Baby Blake and Crawling Cassie, so named after my own daughter who almost no hair till she was two, and one of my darling nephews. Would you like a chance to win these?


So what do you have to do to win?
Just sign up to follow our blog, on the right hand sidebar, and leave a comment here, with a link to your blog, telling us a favorite memory you have about a child or baby, or being a child.  Also please post this blog candy on your blog with a Link back to this posting.
On March 18th I will randomly choose a winner! and announce it here on this blog.

I will start with my memory, my daughter was about 6 or 7 and our beagle Rosie had just had pups, with another beagle named Fred.(now that is funny in and of itself because my husband is also Fred) Anyway, my daughter and I were walking back from looking over the new babies, and talking about Fred being their daddy and Rosie being their mommy, and she looked up and asked me "How did Fred get those puppies into Rosie anyhow?"  Well, I don't remember my exact answer, but I do know it took me a moment to come up with one.

Good luck to everyone! May your spring be filled with renewed hope and love!

Contest... New Releases


I just came up with an idea!!! I wanted to show some sneak peeks of the stamps we have coming in the next couple of weeks, but I wanted to make it even more fun. So here are five heart shaped snippets of some of the new stamps. The first person who posts here the illustrator of each of these stamps will receive their choice of one of the new stamps and a second person will be chosen by random number for a stamp also. You have till next Wednesday Jan 13th, so even if you think the correct answer is posted go ahead and guess anyway to get in the random drawing.


Also, all The Pixie Cottage Illustrators are listed at the right in the sidebar, so click on their names and visit their blogs/websites/ebay pages and it might help you figure out the answers.

Remember just leave the answers in the comment section below before Wed Jan 13th. At that time the new images will be revealed as well as the winners, who will get to pick their stamp!
----------------------------------------------------------
Also, I would like to welcome Hobbystempels to the Pixie Cottage family. They will be carrying the Pixie Cottage stamps in there fine store, so there is something a little closer to home for all our friends in the Netherlands. Welcome!
Stay warm friends,
Michelle
