mmm...Stampin' Time

2nd July, 2019

I hope that everyone has been enjoying the new Annual Catalogue – it’s filled to the brim with amazing new products.

If you live in Australia and do not have a copy yet, please contact me.

Stampin’ Up!®  has also introduced a new catalogue for beginning paper crafters, the BEGINNER BROCHURE.

Don’t be mistaken that only new stampers can order from this brochure … oh, no! The five kits/bundles can be ordered by anyone … I have CELEBRATE WITH CAKE on my next order list.

INTERESTED IN EARNING BONUS $$$ TO SPEND …

For every $90 you spend between 1-31 July (before shipping and handling), you will earn an extra $9 Bonus Days coupon code that can be used 1-31 August.

BUT WAIT … THERE IS ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY!

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT JOINING STAMPIN’ UP!?

NOW IS DEFINITELY THE TIME !

From 1 July until 31 August, as a new demonstrator you will receive an additional $45 to put toward bonus products in your Starter Kit. THEN, you’ll receive a $16 coupon code the following month.

The bonus, at initial sign up, allows you to choose an extra $45 in products.

You will only pay $169 to sign up and choose $280 worth of Stampin’ Up! products in your Starter Kit.

That’s $111 of free product – bargain!

[N.B. The $169 joining cost does not earn Bonus Day coupons. Orders you place after joining do.]

Contact me if you have any questions about this amazing opportunity.

In the meantime, happy stamping!

With each new catalogue, we farewell retiring products …and some have been with us for a long time.

LOVELY AS A TREE, after many years, is now retired and if you missed adding it to your stamp set collection then you will be looking for an alternative … and I have just the right set to recommend.

ROOTED IN NATURE joined the Stampin’ Up! ® stamp set family in 2018 and is a worthy successor.

This stamp set has 16 cling mount stamps.

There are: 4 tree stamps, 4 leaf stamps, 1 sprig/branch stamp,1 tree trunk cross section stamp and 6 sentiment stamps!

This versatile stamp set [148217] is on p148 of the 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue and is A$73. Even better – there are coordinating dies [146341] for A$68.

The three pine trees coordinate with a larger pine tree featured in the WINTER WOODS stamp set [151359] … and there is a great sample card shown on p149 of the catalogue.

Remember to look closely at the amazing projects featured in each catalogue. The concept artists use existing and new products to create these samples to inspire us and show us just how versatile the products are and can be.

Here are a few really quick and simple ideas I’ve put together …

The ROOTED IN NATURE stamp set gives you leaves, trunk and trees with sentiments for a range of occasions.

If you live in Australia and want to add this stamp set to your collection, contact me and I’ll help you place an order.

Each week, I will pop by and share a product from the current catalogue with you.

Happy Stampin’ Time.

I recently posted that I have relocated from Bargara to Kangaroo Point, Brisbane and that we are almost settled in.

I’ve unpacked most of my crafting supplies and am ready to get started.

Now that the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue has gone live – I’m ready for new beginnings.

The new catalogue is amazing and I will be posting some more details of new In Colours, product suites and tools and ideas over the coming weeks.

If you would like to receive a copy of the new catalogue, please contact me.

NEW BEGINNINGS …

Each week, I will be posting updates from Stampin’ Up! and about what’s happening here in Kangaroo Point.

Coffee and a Card gets underway next week – each Tuesday, from 10am, I will be at Melidrop Cafe [98 Main St] looking forward to enjoying a coffee and card making and meeting new crafters [or soon to be crafters] from the area.

If the Coffee and a Card sessions go well, I will look for a second venue for a Thursday gathering.

There will be weekly posts highlighting a product, or coordinating products, and sharing projects made using it.

Then comes Facebook Friday, as I go online to share highlights with you and show you how to make one of the product highlight projects.

Each month there will be at least one Class by Mail. There are details about this new class on the mmm…It’s Mail Time page – just along the top banner to find the link.

Next week, details of the DAISY LANE BUNDLE class by mail will be posted on Monday.

There are more plans being finalised, a class schedule to be created and a venue for classes to be found but I am very excited by what lies ahead.

So … here’s to new beginnings!
