New Basic Grey In Stock!

Seems like I spoke to soon!  Basic Grey Cappella and Max & Whiskers 6x6 pads are now in stock!  More new Basic Grey to follow as soon as they arrive.

For details on the rest of the new arrivals and offers, please see my previous post!



Basic Grey Kioshi and Green At Heart are now back in stock.

You can check out all the Basic Grey goodness HERE!

And, restocks of the popular Mo Manning Stamping Bella collection have just arrived!  You can see them HERE.

New Stock & Special Offers!

Don't know about you, but I had a busy weekend!  No crafting, sadly, although we did start putting together my lovely new craft desk, the top part of which should arrive today (and I'm already thinking about fitting in a second one...)! 

As I'm reorganising, I thought I'd add a few special offers to the store, so have a browse and you may find some bargains! 

Belles 'n Whistles rubber stamps have been further reduced and are now at £5.00 which is a huge saving.  These are no longer being manufactured now that Belles 'n Whistles have moved over to clear, so if there's a design you want in rubber, now's the time!  Check them out HERE.  For the latest clear stamps from Belles 'n Whistles, go HERE.



The gorgeous new Elisabeth Bell for SCACD Stamps collection arrived over the weekend and is now in stock!  These are some of my favourite Elisabeth Bell designs so far, and yep, I've whisked a few off to my craftroom ready for playing as soon as my new desk is up and running.  I think Day Dreaming might just be the first one to see ink!



And I have now added some gorgeous 12x12 papers from The Girls' Paperie.  There are two collections (On Holiday and Paper Girl) available in packs HERE.  You may have spotted these in action on my blog last Friday! Yum!

The new Basic Grey 6x6 pads are expected shortly and will go up on the website as soon as they arrive here.

If you've been hanging around on our Facebook Group, you will know that I'm expecting a delivery of the gorgeous stamp sets from Stempelglede!  These are bound to sell quickly, so keep your eyes peeled for their arrival!

For all new arrivals, check out "New Products" over at http://www.quixoticpaperie.co.uk/

That's all for now!

Quixotic Challenges April Winner!

Once again, I'm not entirely sure where the month went, but here we are with May well underway, and April behind us.

I'd like to take this opportunity to apologise that I haven't personally been able to stop and leave you all comments on your fabulous creations.  Unfortunately, along with work, I've had numerous family issues to cope with, leaving me little energy for blog-hopping.  Fingers crossed I'll be able to get back to it soon, as I do love to come and say hello!

Now, the bit you've been waiting for!  With the assistance of random.org I have drawn a winner for our April prize (that gorgeous Fancy Pants Designs About A Girl collection kit).  Mmmmmm!

The lucky winner is....


You should definitely take a peek at the card Elaine created for the Make A Splash challenge - so gorgeous!

Elaine, drop me an email to quixoticcreations@googlemail.com with your address details and I'll your prize will be winging its way to you!

Once again, a huge thank you to everyone who has participated in the challenges over the last month.  The DT and I have been thrilled with the response.

I will be back later with this week's challenge!
