Well hello...

What an exciting week.  We have said goodbye to many products and have welcomed so many  new ones.

I had a fun open house on Sunday  - if you came along - I hope you enjoyed your afternoon.
Congratulations to Sue, Fiona and Linda who were all prize winners during the afternoon.

New products... 

Samples

Prizes

 There were make and takes too.

Yesterday -  the 2019-20 catalogue went live...

https://www.stampinup.com/en-au

check it out here.

Let me know if you would like a catalogue for $5 or if you wish to place an order.

Yesterday I jumped straight into it and held my June classes.

Here's what we made:

Hope you love the new catalogue and inspiration

We say farewell...

My May class used products that are leaving the Stampin Up Collection.
When the retired list of products is announced its quite sad to see some favourites go - but is also quite exciting to see what they are replaced with.

My classes focussed on the retired incolours:

I really loved these colours and are a tad sad to see them go.

The good news is Ive set a date for my new catalogue launch

$10 gets you entry, a catalogue, afternoon tea, make and take, shopping raffle, new product display and first dibs on my retired goodies.

RSVP essential by 27 May.

Hop Hop its Easter...

Whats not to love with these beauties?

Cute new 'All My Love' DSP and co ordinating ribbons

teamed with Itty Bitty Birthdays stampset.

'Vibrant Vases' new stampset teamed with our new rectangular framelits (my new fav)

PLUS the lace dynamic impressions embossing folder.

A card embossed in its finest gold embossing...

'Piece of Cake' stampset, cake builder punch and rectangular framelits - simply elegant 

Hard to see but rectangular framelits used here too.

Then the school holidays arrived... and so did my kids craft day.

What fun we had making Easter creations

We made a framed bunny (tie dye style)

2 salt dough egg decorations and painted them

and a beautiful embossed Easter card

(and of course there was an Easter Egg hunt)

Feb Frenzy

Feb was fun!
We welcomed Sale a Bration in my Feb classes.
All these FREEBIES you can get with any $90 or more purchase.
Take a look:

March Madness

In March, we made something for everyone... 

We began with a cute little pillow box (ideal to put jewellery or chocolates in for a gift)

Teamed with our new cute and girly DSP 'All My Love' and the sale a bration shimmer paper - whats not to love.

A great card for kids/teens or anyone really.  Our new 'piece of cake' stampset with co ordinating cake build a punch makes for a quick versatile card. 

This was a different stamp option for me to buy - but I really like it for something different

'Flowering Desert'. 

We also have awesome new framelits!  'Well Written' they are called and are great for all occassions

August...

Well today I'm on track for my blog for August
We used some other new products in the classes for August.

A gorgeous new pin tucked embossing folder (looks like a quilt)  - and the AWESOME lazer cut specialty paper which is so beautiful. (you can use it both sides so have the option of cream or white)

Can you guess how I made the flowers?? 

I used the varied vase punch as petals. 

Dandelion Wishes looks great with the watercolour washed background and silver foil paper. 

I didn't have this stampset on my wish list at first but I love it. 

A great male card using new incolours and new Stitched labels framelits and new ribbon 

How cute is the framelit set?

Brusho is the focus here - the red and yellow makes a striking background.

Until next month when there is a new Holiday catalogue to show off - Happy Stampin!

July - Share What You Love

July was fun as we had a family trip to Sri Lanka (cant say I saw any papercraft shops there though!)

On my return, I caught up with my card classes.
This month we used the Share What You Love stampset and DSP.  Isn't it gorgeous.

Love this white on white card - simple and elegant.  Can you see the subtle score lines to add that extra bit?

Pool Party and Rich Razzleberry  - a sweet combo.

Love that devine DSP.  It even shimmers

Layer above layer for this one.

This is the DSP

(I think it looks better in the flesh!)

and the stampset

Happy Half Year catch up

Oh my, here was I thinking I was only a month behind and I was 3 months behind!
