Last few weeks of Sale-a-bration

With everything else going on recently I have not had time to play with anything from the mini catalogue let alone the SAB promo but I have had a couple of birthdays this past week and decided it was time to play with the fab papers that are free when your order over £45.00. They are similar in design, I have just used different stamping techniques.

First one...

uses the My friend stamp set from the mini catalogue and I have stamped with white pigment ink and then embossed with white embossing powder. First time I have played with the ribbon punch and check out the dotty brads in the In colours collection. The colours in the papers are Lucky Limeade, Pool Party, Peach Parfait, Calypso Coral, Poppy Parade, Very Vanilla and Soft Suede. The patterened papers are called Everyday Enchantment. The sentiment is from the Curly Cute set. All finshed off with some seam binding.

The second one ......

was going to be sent abroad so I did not want to add brads so I added some of the Sizzlet Button dies instead. I just stamped the main image with Luck Limeade ink and I added the Hello wording from the My Friend set. Really love this colour palette, so fresh looking!

If anyone wants to order anything I am placing an order this weekend.

Christmas card

I hope you all had a great Christmas, unfortunately Stampin'Up had to take a back seat for the last few months due to family problems but hopefully in 2012 things will improve.

I did mass produce 1 Christmas card using Stampin'Up products, not using a Christmas stamp set as such but I think the Lovely as a tree works for so many occassions and with a bit of glitter makes a great Christmas scene.

The paper on the top is from the paper stack, Neutrals collection Chocolate Chip. I teamed with some Cherry Cobbler cardstock and cut both with the scalloped border punch and wrapped some seam binding across the panel. I secured the bow with one of the beautiful antique brads from the new catalogue. The trees were stamped in Pear Pizzazz, the largest tree being stamped onto a seperate piece of card and cut out and attached with foam pads.  The sentiment is from the Contempo Christmas set, stamped and embossed with Cherry Cobbler embossing powder. I add some glitter to the trees for the bit of sparkle from a frosty morning!!

There is a new mini catalogue launching in the new year, if you would like one drop me an email and I will get one off to you. We also have Sale-a-bration promotion kicking off on the 24th January, there are 4 fabulous stamp sets and a paper pack to earn free with any order over £45.00, this runs until the end of March.

Have a great new year and I wish you all a very happy and healthy one!

Welcome

to a new blog for me, this will be where I will post everything Stampin'Up related in the future. Please click the link on the left hand side to become a follower, this will keep you upto date with all my posts. Its a very exciting time of the year for all Stampin'Up demonstrators in Europe with the release of the new 2011/2012 catalogue.  Although we did loose alot of fabulous products when the old one retired we have now got some gorgeous new things to buy. We also now have a completed "In Colour" family to add to the other 4 Rich Regals, Subtles, Neutrals and Brights. We had 5 colours that were introduced last year Peach Parfait, Poppy parade, Pear Pizzazz, Concord Crush and Blushing Bride. Now we can add Pool Party, Calypso Coral, Lucky Limeade, Wisteria Wonder and Island Indigo.

If anyone would like a copy of the new catalogue then please email me and I will get one in the post to you.  I am charging £4 each this year instead of the marked price of £5.95, postage is free.

I am looking for 4 more people to join my stampers 10 group.  Join this group and you will earn min £25.00 to spend on whatever you want in the new book.  All you have to do is committ to spend £15.00 min each month for 10 months, each of the 10 ladies will take it in turn each month to choose what they want to spend their hostess pounds on! Names will be randomly drawn when I have all 10 ladies to see what month their turn will be.

Some of the Uk demos got together to do a swap using new products etc from the new catalogue...I wanted to show you all the beautiful cards I received last week.

I will post some more tomorrow.
