May Release Countdown Teasers Day 4

I have had such an overwhelmingly positive response to the teasers so far and I can't thank you enough for boosting mine and Jenny's confidence.  Clearly Besotted has in recent months had a small growth spurt, which is surprising because prior to this, we had been shrinking!  Thank you very much :)

Wishing You The Best Birthday Ever

There's no better feeling than waking up on a Monday morning when it's a Bank Holiday, knowing Dean's home tending to the children so I can have a lie-in :)

May Release Countdown Teasers Day 1

I've been impatiently sharing little peeks far too early on Instagram and Facebook, which almost makes the following teasers a tad redundant!

A Class Act

All In Onesie

Cool Dude

Feeling Fruity

Just The Two of Us

Party Time Again

Mr & Mrs Hoot

Happy Birthday

I can't tell you how delighted I am to have on board with us this month the fabulous Taheerah Atchia, the wonderful Anita Bowden and the amazing Vanessa Amann.  And if that wasn't enough, Yoonsun Hur (I absolutely love this sweet lady) will be showcasing our stamps too :)

I am giddy with excitement to announce the newest addition to the Clearly Besotted Design Team.  It should come as no surprise that I asked the magnificent Keren Baker to join our little group, the real surprise is that she actually said yes!

A trip to the cinema to see Captain America is on the cards for today, I've been assured that Iron Man is in this movie so I may stay awake for Robert Downing Junior ha!
