Open House / New Catalogue Launch

It has been a busy week getting

prepared for our Open House/New Catalogue

Launch.

Just thought I would share one of the cards

I have created for display

using the new Build a Birthday

Stamp Set and the Cherry on Top DSP.

This is just a little taste of all the lovely

samples we will have to share with you all.

MAY STAMP CLUB

Sharing our projects from this month's 

Stamp Club.

Our first card I took my inspiration

from the latest Impressions Magazine

(one of the awesome products Stampin'Up!

provides for all of its demonstrators for

inspiration etc).

As the 2013/2015 In Colours are

about the retire (and I have loved

 these colours so much and will be sad

to see them go)  I decided to use

a combination of Crisp Cantaloupe and

Coastal Cabana.  

Our second card was created using

the Balloon Bash Stamp Set which

is current in the Occasions Catalogue

however, has not carried over into the

new Annual Catalogue.  I love the

versatility of this set so wanted to use it

one more time before it retires also.  You

will see the sentiment in the first card is

also from this stamp set.  I love the way

you can fussy cut out the banner to make 

it a little different.

OPEN HOUSE - NEW CATALOGUE LAUNCH

It's that exciting time of the year again when the new Catalogue is launched.

This year I am joining together with my upline to  hold an open house and catalogue launch.

Please RSVP if you are wishing to attend. 

Special Order Birthday Card

Just sharing with you today one of my 

recent cards I created for a special order, the

recipient being a lovely young girl.

Of course I used my favourite Butterfly Basics

stamp set and matching frame lit dies as well

as my favourite colours of Bermuda Bay

and Pear Pizzazz.

I hadn't created a Centre Step Card for quite

some time so decided that this design would

make the card extra special.

2015 STAMPIN"UP! CONVENTION

Had such an exciting and fun time at the

Stampin'Up! Convention.

Can't believe how fast those 3 days have

just flown by.

Have come home (well actually I only live 

around the corner from the Gold Coast

Convention Centre - so not far to go) very

inspired and looking forward to being

able to share the new catalogue

with everyone very soon.

And look what I won.

The very last Prize Patrol and I won

the gorgeous new Bohemian DSP and a

fast fuse.  Can't wait to play with this

gorgeous paper.

Thank you Stampin'Up! for a wonderful and inspiring 3 days of fun.
