LIVE …. STAMPIN’ UP! HOLIDAY CATALOGUE

HolidayPreOrder_DemoSite_CatalogPage_SPCLICK ON THE IMAGE TO ORDER NOW

It may not seem like I have been very excited about the new catalogue …. BUT I REALLY AM!

As a demonstrator, I am lucky enough to see the catalogue and order these amazing new products BEFORE today.

Unfortunately, I have not had much free time to create with what I have ordered [do not let my husband know …. because I have lots and lots of amazing new products from this catalogue now in my craft room … you’ll understand when you see what is in it!!]

This last month [and the few before it] my brother, sister and I have been spending time supporting our mum and trying to find her a permanent place in the same nursing home as her husband … and were fortunate enough this last week to achieve this goal. Just a few more things to do to make sure she is comfortable and has everything she needs.

SO … I am ready to start creating and posting …. there are already so many amazing ideas being posted online … you should check them out.

NOW … if you would like your very own copy of the new catalogue please contact me and I will send one to you [Australian residents only].

CARDS FOR THE BOYS

It has been far too long since my last post … too much work and not enough crafting!

This month I am holding two different Sunday classes … the first, on the 14th, is CARDS FOR THE BOYS.

With Fathers’ Day just around the corner, I thought we could play with some of the stamp sets from the 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue that are really well suited to the ‘boys’ in our lives … whether you want cards for Fathers’ Day or birthdays, there are plenty of sentiments we can choose from, to make your cards perfect for your special ‘boys’.

OUR FIRST STAMP SET …. ONE WILD RIDE

This card was inspired by a pop up panel card made by Nicole Schlack [Stampin Fee] … her instructions were in German … so that took some extra thinking … thank goodness for her photos.

HERE’S THE ‘POP’

 NEXT … ALWAYS AN ADVENTURE

I haven’t made a side step card in ages … it is a great card for creating perspective.

… and for the younger boys, we’ll make a couple of gift tags using the seriously cute frog from LOVE YOU LOTS Hostess stamp set and a dinosaur or two from the NO BONES ABOUT IT stamp set.

CALENDAR UPDATE

Wow … it’s been two weeks since I hosted my Catalogue Launch … where does the time go??

… and it is only a week until our first monthly class featuring the new catalogue … this month is …

JARS IN JULY

Before I worked on the cards for our July class, I wanted to make some shaker jars … and this is the result – my SHAKER JARS CARD IN A BOX … using some retired buttons alongside new Floral Boutique Designer Washi Tape, a Swirly Birds stamp and other current and new products …

This card was inspired by Sharon Burkert [As the Ink Dries] … I love the new In Colours … especially Dapper Denim and Flirty Flamingo!

… and this card was inspired by the ‘guess the number of lollies in the jar’ fundraisers everyone has experienced – whether it is jelly beans or gumballs – who can ever guess the correct number?

IMG_1592

… and the final project is a 3×3 gift card … these cards are becoming a favourite of mine … a little something special for those “small” day to day events!

So … July is all about JARS …

check out what is happening over the next few months by opening the link to WHAT’S ON @ STAMPIN’ TIME … loads of fun and creativity between now and Christmas …

Enjoy …
