Christmas Extravaganza

As part of our ladies ministry Christmas Extravaganza night we got to make lovely Christmas craft and share some yummy treats and great company. These are 2 of my cards we did on the night.

September has been and gone!

Well I hope you all are enjoying the new Stampin' Up! 2011 - 2012 Idea catalogue. I have been busy creating with all my new sets. I've even forgotton to post my beautiful daughters birthday! She had asked me to create an art journel for her to draw in. This is what I did. The new cupcake punch and pennent bigz die made making her card easy! Happy Birthday Aliesha! We love you

For my family

Oh what a week I have had! I am taking a bit of RNR today and updating my blog for you all. My husband has been in hospital all week after a trailbike accident. This is the card I took in for him.

My son had His 6th Birthday wednesday, so in between hospital visits we had a party for his new school friends. This was the invitation using the Make a Monster and Party this way sets.

The new Pendant Parade, Petite Pennants builder Punch and Just add cake DSP made a great banner to top his monster card. I also used the banner on a brown paper bag for the gift bags. (Will try a remember to take a picture and post)

Excitement of the 2011-2012 Idea book and Catalogue.

Well some of you already have the georgous new catalogues. I hope you have enjoyed looking at all the new products. The 1st of September is when we can begin our ordering. Yeh~! Any one who would still like a catalogue I have them for purchase for special price of $10. Now for one of our new sets:


Creative Elements is one of the new sets in the new Catalogue. The lucky demonstrators who went to convention got these. I was able to borrow one and have a play and these are my cards.

This card uses the faux silk technique, with a lot of champagne shimmer paint! It was very sparkly. I have been enjoying playing with inks and creating vintage cards lately. Please see the sharing cards link for more cards I have done.

Gift with purchase Promotion

I got to have a play today with my free ice-cream parlour ribbon and buttons. Stampin' Up! are so generous. You get a roll of ribbon 13.7m of ribbon and 48 buttons FREE with any purchase over $100. Time is running out though. You only have till the end of July to get your orders in. This is a very quick box to make, using the scallope envelope die.

A quick thankyou for one of my hostesses! Had to match the gift box!

Here I used Funky Four stamp set and On your Birthday set. I clear embossed the mushrooms and inked the word stamp using the markers.

Another bright card using the Funky four set, and Tiny Tags. It really stetched me today, using such bright colours, but they had a very cheery feel! Hope you enjoy them too.

Breast Cancer Research Fundraiser

Our fundraising day was a huge success. We had 40 women come to make the two cards. A big thanks to all those who helped make up the kits, the girls who helped the others make the cards, the ladies who brought morning tea and my beautiful friend Jacqui who took our breast cancer fundraiser apparel orders. {Pictured above}. Our auctions were a big hit and raised $745. Our current total raised being $1480 with more to come! Thankyou everyone.
