1st Tuesday craft class

This Tuesday was 1st Tuesday craft class again, and we had a good time at I Love Coffee at Red Edge (thanks to the lovely staff there).
The girls and I made Tri-fold cards in Elegant Eggplant and Rose Red, with the "Butterfly prints" and "Creative Elements" stamp sets. We used the pale Plum patterned paper from the Subtles pattern stack of DSP. We masked the background image with an oval cut using the large oval punch, then stamped the greeting in the space created. Next time girls, you can have a try at cutting the card elements yourself! Lol.
This is a great card to make once you know how, it always looks harder than it actually is. Thanks for coming today ladies, see you at the third Tuesday craft class at my place this time.
If you would like to come and make something yourself at this small and friendly group, please contact me for more details.

My little Rainbow Puppy

My youngest wanted to be a rainbow dog when she was asked by the Face Painter what she would like to be. I thought this was such a cute photo, and was made to be scrapbooked! I love the new hostess-only Designer Series Paper "Cheerful Treat", and was lucky enough to pre-order some (another benefit of being a Demonstrator!). You can get your own pack by hosting a +$300 workshop or placing an order of your own to the same value, and still have dollars left to buy more gorgeous products!

Paper Angels charity Christmas event

Join Stampin’ Up! Australia for $169

During September, you can join the Stampin’ Up! family as a demonstrator for only $169! Normally $289, this limited-time Mini Starter Kit is the perfect option for those who already love Stampin’ Up! and already own many of Stampin’ Up!’s high-quality products. The mini starter kit enables you to start ordering brand new catalogue items at 20% off, which, if you are anything like me, your wish list will be miles long!

Plus when you join with me as a demonstrator, you are joining the Paper Angels Team, who are friendly and supportive, conducting meetings and sharing projects and ideas electronically if you cannot be with us in person.

The limited-time mini Starter Kit-valued at over $310-comes with the high-quality products listed below – you can also ‘design your own’ mini starter kit, by choosing alternate stamp sets, ink colours, cardstock colours and DSP of equal or lesser value.

New hostess benefits programme

I’m really excited to share with you, Stampin’ Up!s NEW ‘hostess’ benefits. What many people don’t realise is, that if you place a customer order over $300, you will be eligible for these very same benefits. Likewise, when as a demonstrator, I place a $300 order, I also receive the benefits. Sounds very fair doesn’t it BUT WAIT, it gets even better! Stampin’ Up! have recognised that people want more choice, and as such, they have INCREASED the amount of dollars you have to spend when placing a $300+ order/workshop. Full details are in the table below, but as an example, if you place a $300 order, you receive your choice of $50 of product from anywhere in the catalogue! You can choose discounted hostess product featured on pages 8-12 of the NEW Idea Book & Catalogue and/or from the main body of the catalogue.

My favourite way of Sharing Stampin’ Up! is to conduct a FREE workshop for you, because that way I can share ideas and inspiration on how to use the product that you buy! I am not interested in selling product that you do not use – I hope that I can inspire you to enjoy and use your products creatively in a social atmosphere.

Having said that, I do know that some of my customers are unable to host or attend workshops, and in that case, I welcome orders outside of workshops and will do my best to support your purchases with creative ideas on my blog and galleries. I want you to know that if you order $300 of product, you too will receive the ‘hostess benefits’.

Please don't hesitate to contact me about the above, I would love to hear from you!
