Join the Sale-A-Bration!

Sale-A-Bration 2010
It's Sale-A-Bration time again at Stampin' Up!, and friends, fresh ideas, and free product is what it's all about!
Every year Stampin' Up! gives customers, hostesses, and new demonstrators the opportunity to earn fantastic, FREE, limited-edition products they'll enjoy for years to come.
Here's how Sale-A-Bration works:
Spend
When you spend $100 on Stampin' Up! merchandise, you'll receive a free Sale-A-Bration reward. There's no limit--for every $100 you spend, you can select another FREE Sale-A-Bration reward!
Host
When you host a workshop of at least $600 (before tax and shipping), you'll receive a free Sale-A-Bration reward in addition to all of the regular hostess benefits!
Join
During Sale-A-Bration, anyone who joins as a demonstrator can choose any stamp set--a value of up to $79.95--from our current Idea Book and Catalogue or Summer Mini Catalogue.

The Sale-A-Bration promotion starts today, 25 January and runs through 31 March, so don't miss your chance to earn free products! Talk to me today to book your workshop or learn more about this promotion. I have a full-colour Sale-A-Bration brochure full of beautiful project ideas you can make using these limited-edition Sale-A-Bration sets. You can also view the Sale-A-Bration brochure online.

craft class

Craft class today was a quiet one, with Sylvia in hospital or at home recovering I hope, Elisa watching the clock while Issy slept, and Rachael getting her back fixed! Still Nikaya managed to keep Marie and I on our toes while we made this 8" scrap page (seen here with Mum and Dad posing with me at Charlotte's birthday). I used the Pink Flamingo paper and matching colour scheme of Tempting Turquoise and Real Red, while also using my embossing tool to create a 3D effect with the scalloped flower. I also used the stamp sets Warm Words and For Everything, which I absolutely love from the new Summer Mini catalogue. (I love it even more because I got it for free after the recent Brisbane Regionals, for placing a qualifying order - you too could earn free stuff by joining me as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, and with Sale-a-bration coming soon there's never been a better time!)

Valentine's card night for the boys

Last year I held a very successful Valentine's card making night for the husbands/partners of my customers, and it is back again by popular demand (well popular with my customers, not necessarily with those that come and make the cards LOL!)
Cost: $5
Venue: my place!
Date and time: Saturday 6th February, 7.30 pm
Bookings essential
Here is last year's event, as you can see they were all there of their own free will and none of them were chained to the table!!

Petal Party album in a day

There are 2 places remaining on the Petal Party album in a day event on the 23rd January. Come and spend a day of creativity at my house making a 20 page 6" scrapbook album using the Stampin' Up! Petal Party Simply Scrappin' kit. For just $60 you will receive all you need to create this beautiful album inspired by the wonderful Liz Collett. Tuition, morning tea and a light lunch are included in the class cost, as are ribbon embellishments, extra card stock, the Simply Scrappin' Kit and a 6" scrapbook album too.
Final numbers are needed this week so I can place the orders for the products you will need.
I hope you can join me!

It's the start of a new decade!

Happy new year to all my fellow bloggers and all my wonderful blog followers. Thanks for spending 2009 with me here, I hope this new year will be as creative as the last, and I hope to share with you some of my projects and ideas.
First and Third Tuesday Craft Class will start this Tuesday the 5th January, please contact me if you'd like to come.
Stamp Club will resume on the 30th January and is on every last Saturday of the month.
Don't forget to book your very own Stampin' Up! workshop where I can give you and your guests first hand experience of stamping, and get you hooked with this wonderful hobby!
