Etsy Spotlight: wendy prints ♥

Hello Loves, 

Today im doing a spotlight on the etsy store wendy prints which is run by a lovely lady called Wendy.

i ordered these stickers on boxing day on bit of a whim really, i hadnt heard nothing about the store and i just saw someone share something on instagram so i thought oh why not and placed a small order.

The stickers i ordered are: credit card // coffee stickers // pay day // weekend banners //

the reason why i only brought 4 sheets is because at the time she didnt offer as many pre printed and cut stickers as she does now and im hoping to place a order again sometime soon.

The cut on these stickers are amazing, the weekend banners are litterly cut out words! which isnt something you come across very often, they are also easy to remove from the sheet without tearing. for £2 a sheet the pricing of the stickers are reasonable and the colours are vibrant on matte paper. the postage is £1 per order which i am finding happens with alot of stores at the moment, they took 3days to arrive from being posted but please remember i ordered on a bank holiday.

overall i cant fault the store or its owner. i did email them to see if it was ok to write this post and she was beyond helpful and answered all my questions without a problem.

i have changed up how im doing these posts. if you prefer the bullet point senctions then please let me know and ill revert back to that.

Etsy Spotlight: Stickers by grace ♥

Hey Loves,

now this post has been a long time in the making!

full disclaimer i was sent these stickers.. they got lost in the post with me being told that when they fall of the sorting band there thrown in a bin which is later thrown away.. after me talking to about 20 people they arrived on my door step like magic! royal mail are horrid but the stickers are beautiful!

we all know im a matte girl, i love me some matte stickers but ive never really given glossy ago, didnt even want to since the pens i use are more gel like that biro and that squeaky sound they make when ur put them down gives me chills.. with that all being said these are some really nice stickers and the cleaning checklists give me life now that im working again i try and do 3 main things a week and a quick pick up daily. The to do scalloped edged headers are pretty and can be used many different ways in a side bar in the boxes, as headers the lists are endless, there a pretty classic addition to any store.. the weather stickers which i cant seem to find on her store are small and will fit in any planner which i know is a big plus for anyone who has a personal sized planner (a6) 

spring time kit - this is stunning, i love the decor sheet, now there is 3 more sheets to this kit i believe and can be bought singly or as a whole kit for £10.49. i will be doing a post on my planner when i use this kit since im not using a erin condren atm so it might be interesting to see how my planner compares to how people plan in a erin condren using this kit, in hindsight i think id go for matte kits when i purchase since glossy really isnt my thing - i know alot of people love it but its just not for me and when i do place a order i will show you and compare the difference between the glossy and the matte!

Disclaimer: as i said at the top of this post, i was gifted these stickers for this post. that doesnt change how i see them or how i feel about them.

Etsy Spotlight: Pemberly Prints ♥

Hey loves, 

Today i am doing a spotlight on pemberley prints, the shop is owned and run by Tasha. 

Before we go any further i would like to say that i did buy most of these stickers myself but when i spoke to tasha about what i was buying and why she offered to put in a few extra sheets that i didnt buy but she thinks id like - she was right! 

Etsy spotlight - candy pink designs ♥

Hey loves,

today im back with another etsy spotlight and this week is a shop called candy pink designs and its run by a lovely lady called Amy.

now lets just put this out there.. amy did send me these for this purpose but i adore them and have filled my etsy cart full of stickers from her shop - there amazing quality for £1.50 per sheet!

i was sent - the movie set, the cocktail glasses and the post boxes!

the doctor who sheet, my little mermaid sheet and the mad hatter sheet..

i was also sent some page flags, some tear drops and some check boxes. 

the shop itself host a wide-range of stickers and i believe theres 15 sheets in my cart atm. you have seen some of these in my spreads over the weeks since this post has been a long post in the making. 

price: the price is amazing! £1.50 per sheet? yes please over and over again! id continue to purchase again and again even if its just re-buying the sheets ive already got - they will continue to be used no matter what! i pray she get continues to update her shop with new goods!

paper: the paper feels of high standard, really easy to peal from the backing and the kiss cut is the best ive seen so far! 

finish: the finish is matte which i prefer. i dont like glossy i just cant get along with them unless im not writing on them.

postage cost: the postage cost is a £1 per order! no adding up more just a standard £1

postage time: postage was very quick. i was told she posted one day and was here the next! im very pleased with this since im very impatient when it comes to waiting for items.

The lovely amy provided a discount code which is blog15   

the shop is currently closed for the christmas period but it re-opens on the 28th december!

like i said, i have been sent these but you will be seeing the shop featured in more hauls and layouts. Please know that these being sent to me doesn't change my opinion on them. 

Etsy Spotlight - Pretty Crafty Stickers ♥

Hello ladies,

im back today with another etsy spotlight on a shop called pretty crafty stickers.

im going to do my DISCLAIMER here because before i can jump into the actual post i normal say why i choose these stickers - well i was sent them for this purpose, that doesn't mean i like them anymore than the ones i brought myself or that im going to continue to get freebies from this shop, it just means i was sent them and this is my honest opinion. 

and now that is out of the way i can go on to the stickers i was sent are:self check // ladies night // money bags // gas pumps // asterisks

The design on these stickers are amazing, there a semi gloss id say, not matte but not overly glossy.. the colours of the stickers are very vibrant and for the amount you pay you get alot on the sheet (around 2-4pounds per sheet) and she also offers a deluxe pack of between 30 and 70 sheets from as little as £27.41 to as much as £52.66 which i really want to buy.

The self check stickers are so unique, ive not saw them on anyones shop apart from paulas which is a big thumbs up from me since its something all ladies should be doing!

price: the price reflects well from the quality and the amount you get, it might be a little more than the other sets of stickers ive brought but honestly id pay it willingly - watch out boxing day! im coming for ya - and since im not spending money on stickers until boxing day im excited to see what she comes out with!

paper: the paper feels of high standard, really easy to peal from the backing and the kiss cut is the best ive seen so far! 

finish: on the page it says the sticker finish is matte, from seeing other matte stickers and printing my own on matte paper i can say its not fully matte. its a beautiful finish.

postage cost: the postage cost is around 79p and then 50p every other sheet.. which i just found out by adding 9 sheets to my shopping cart!

postage time: postage did take a few days from the time she said she sent them but in the shops defence its from dublin! and it only took 4 days and i know ive had things take longer from london.

Etsy Spotlight: Its Only Me Caralee ♥

Hey loves, 

Today im back with another etsy spotlight! its become an addiction lately and i will willingly sit there and look at all the pretties that people make! 

Today involves a cute little shop called "its only me caralee."

the stickers i choose are half ombre and flags set, weekend banners, small cameras, red and black minnie planner stickers. 

They are amazing quality since they all cost between £1 and £3, she does a majority of sets rather than individual stickers but she is expanding on that.  the minnie set is the cutest thing ive seen i love minnie and mickey mouse so ofcourse i needed to get it! the cameras help me mark when i need to take a picture on sundays of my final week. 

price: for the quality you cant beat the price at all. the amount you get for that price too is simply amazing. 

paper: the paper feels of high standard, easy to peel from the backing and the cut is amazing.. 

finish: the finish of the stickers are matte. which i like but i think the cameras would look lovely on a satin finish paper. 

postage cost: the postage cost the big massive amount of 99p! i know what your thinking.. could she get anymore sarcastic but honestly theres no many places that ship for standard 99p! 

postage time: postage did take 5 days after it was sent out. but thats royal mail for you i cant blame the shop for that. It took 2/3days after i brought the items to be shipped out! which since i brought them on the weekend i can forgive and forget - the shop is a ready to ship shop i believe (i could be so wrong about that) 

Etsy spotlight: Pookie Paper Co ♥

Hello my loves, 

i know i know, i said i was back to blogging and yet i disappeared again not a week later, theres not alot i can say in my defence but i got really sick and by monday rolled around i was so ill i could hardly talk and then by wednesday my voice was gone.  day and night nurse was my savior! they both knocked me out even though the day nurse said none drowsy? anyway.. back to business! 

Today is the start of a new series that ive had in the making for a few months, well i had it in my mind anyway. Ive saw a ton of girls do this on youtube but the difference is this one is ONLY uk! there will be no international shops! which im sure you all are seeing as mean but think about it, all these lovely ladies in the uk are going out of there way to do this any we would rather spend a small fortune on postage getting them from the USA because we dont hear alot about them? well no more!
