Special Stampin' Up! Promotion for July Only

DBWS_MainAd_July2011_CAStampin' Up! has an awesome promotion for new recruits starting today and running through July 31st!  You can sign up for $119 with a special Starter Kit.  It's smaller than our regular kit but it comes with a few stamping items and all the business materials you'll need to get started.
You may ask yourself why you'd want to become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator?  There are many reasons but the main one for my team members is the permanent 20% (minimum) discount they receive on all their orders.
You can remain a demonstrator as long as you meet the requirements and there is no penalty for dropping - you can keep all the items in your kit too!
Here's a list of what comes in the Starter Kit for July:

On my way home from Convention!

Sunday, 17 July 2011

Well, I'm on my way home from Salt Lake City today after attending my first Stampin' Up Convention.  All I can say is WOW!  It was so much fun and I met so many new friends and attended some wonderful classes and sessions.
I attended a Fun Class on Friday night called "Village of Cuteness".  The project was 3 little decorated houses - because the class was only 2 hours and I also had to transport the houses home, I didn't finish them.  I'll finish them soon and post pictures for you all to see.
Stampin' Up spoiled us so much during the convention - lots of new stamp sets to try out including some from the upcoming Holiday Mini that won't be released until September 1st! The mini is amazing and I want to order everything in it!
Here's a sneak peak that was demo'd during one of the General Sessions - isn't this adorable - there's a stamp set AND a coordinating punch.  If you're interested in receiving a Holiday Mini - email me and I'll make sure you get one when they are available in August.
I'll post more pictures over the next few days!  Stay tuned!  If you're interested in learning more about Stampin' Up and how you could be able to join me next year at Convention, feel free to contact me.  Stampin' Up has an amazing promotion on until the end of July if you are interested in joining in the fun.


Happy Stamping!

Thank you treats

Wednesday, 13 April 2011

I've been making a lot of thanks you gifts and cards recently - it's been really fun to create something special for some dear friends who have helped me a lot over the past year.


I've made thank you Shadow box cards using the technique I learned in my upline Alison's "Fancy Folds" class.

These cards are so pretty - I've used the "Because I Care" stamp set and the Elegant Soiree Designer Paper.


For the gifts for each of my friends, I made 4 note cards in a package.  


I sure hope they enjoy sending notes to their friends using these cards as much as I enjoyed making them!



Where does time go?

Saturday, 9 April 2011

It has been awhile since I have blogged, but that doesn't mean I haven't been busy with stamping!  Also work and some travelling for work in the mix!  Spring finally feels like it has arrived - such a treat to be out in the sunshine.
As I mentioned in an earlier blog, April is a busy birthday month in my family and circle of friends.  I made the card below using the "Create the cupcake" stamp set and the "Build the cupcake" punch.
This stamp set and matching punch makes it really easy to make beautiful cards quickly for anyone - men in your life included.  Just change the colours!


I'll post some of the other projects I've been working on - thank you cards and gifts for some of my sorority friends.


Have fun in the sunshine!
