Sneak Peek!!!

Hello Stampers






I have just finished these couple of stocking fillers and not sure who will be the lucky ones to receive them yet???

This is one of the best parts of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  I get to see and play with new products before most other people :) :) and the new goodies coming out soon on January 5th are all so much fun to use.

These are 2 little notepads that I bought from my local "cheap" shop for under $1.50 each and then added my special little touches.  I know I would love to receive these myself :)

I have used some existing products listed below but also some new Designer Series Paper, framelits and little embellishments.  These only took me a few minutes to put together so super easy. The "Just a Note" stamp is from the Watercolor Wishes Card Kit so this kit is so versatile in so many ways!!!

I also decorated the inside as well using a new stamp set called "Enjoy the Little Things". Love it! Love it! Love it!


Remember that Sale-a-Bration time also starts on January 5th so you can get lots of fun freebies each time you spend $90.00. Plus you automatically become a member of my "Sunnie Coast Stampers" Club for 2016 and earn 1 x Sunburst for every $90.00 you spend.....so on your way to earning more freebies :)   If you are not already on my Customer List and live in Australia send me a quick email here and I will pop the new "Handmade from the Heart" Occasions Catalogue as well as the Sale-a-Bration Brochure in the mail to you straight away.

As I mentioned in my previous Blog on 3 December my new Stampers Club has had a name change and revamp due to my sea change move recently. 


                    

 It is now called The Sunnie Coast Stampers Club and for every $90.00 spent you receive one of these Sunbursts.

Happy December!!!

Hello Stampers

Yes it is December already!!!  Where has that whole year gone???  Many a stamping day has been spent this 2015 and, hopefully, many more will be spent during 2016.  Although I am turning the big "60" in 2016 and a wonderful cruise up the Rhine River is planned this year, to celebrate, with 8 other beautiful friends. Hmmmm I may just have to take a few little projects along with me to prevent me having withdrawal symptoms hahaha.  I think a little creating under the Tuscany sun will be on the agenda :) 

So I hope you have all started your Christmas creating?  I am happy to say that all my cards are done and posted.  I love being organised at the beginning of December so I can then concentrate on wrapping and decorating my Christmas Gifts.  Nothing elaborate but just a little something to pretty them up a bit.  All my tags are already done using the "Oh What Fun" Tag Project Kit.  If you haven't already got your kit grab it fast as this is on the Retirement List for the "Holiday Catalogue"  Check out the Retirement List here to see what is still available.

Speaking about the Holiday Catalogue - just a few more weeks till the end of this "Handmade for the Season" Catty - the 4th January is the last day to order your goodies from here. Pop on over to the link to my shop (at the right of this Blog) any time of the day or night to pick up that special Christmas present for yourself.

Then........drum roll.......the new "Handmade from the Heart" Occasions Catalogue begins on 5 January till 31 May 2016



 Doesn't it look so super cute? There are just soooo many lovely things in this catalogue.  I know you are going to love it as much as I do.  I will be getting copies of this wonderful publication out to my customers later this month so you can all start making your wish list.  I can't wait to show you all close up too.  One sneak peek is using a stamp set that has so many possibilities.  I made my daughter's birthday card using it and, she probably doesn't realise yet, but they are Macarons on the front of the card and the same number as her age!!!!


The Designer Series Paper is new too and I am loving it all!

And.......you remember what also happens at the beginning of each year?????  Yay!! Yes Sale-a-Bration!!!!  I get so excited about this time of year with all the free stuff you get to choose.



 Lots of fun things in this years brochure yet again.  For every $90.00 spent you get to choose 1 free item in this brochure.  This year there is a little twist also.  There are a few items only available till 15 February then they are gone.....forever....so you may want to put these at the top of your "To Get First" List.  Another batch of limited-time products are coming on 16 February.  So the excitement continues!!!!!  If you are not on my regular posting list just email me here and I will send out a copy of both the new Occasions Catalogue and the Sale-a-Bration Brochure as soon as I can.

Also for every $90.00 spent you automatically become a member of my Stamping Club and can earn more free stamp sets.  As I have moved home in the last 18 months my Club will be undergoing a "Sea Change" as well :)  So watch my Blog in the next week and all new details will be revealed.

Happy Christmas to all and hope it is a safe and fun one spent with family and friends

Exciting new things!!!!

Hello Stampers

I am back from a wonderful weekend in Melbourne.  I love visiting Melbourne.  Always something new to see and do :)  This time my visit was to attend Stampin' Up!s OnStage Live Local Event and be one of the first  to see the new "Handmade from the Heart" Occasions Catalogue which starts on 5 January in conjunction with the 2016 Sale-a-Bration Brochure.  So you know what that means????  Lots of new and free goodies coming up soon :) :)  Do the Happy Dance!!!!

The main OnStage Live Event to launch this new Catalogue and Brochure was held In Brussels, Belgium and as we couldn't all travel to Brussels they held local events at many other major cities in USA, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.  So Australia had one in Melbourne and one in Perth.  My friend and fellow Demonstrator, Sonia, and myself and my upline Kim chose to attend Melbourne.  Here we are with Jocie and Jodie as well.  I am holding the pink Stampin' Up! sign.


We had the best day ever with lots of give aways, Make-and-Takes and sneak peeks at new products starting soon on January 2016.  The new catalogue is just jam packed with so many lovely things this time :) I can only show you the cover at this stage....

                                                 

                                                  

 

You will be able to get your hands on these fun things from 5 January 2016. If you are in Australia and would like a copy to read over and over just email me here and I  will pop one in the mail to you straight away

I can show you a couple of things that we made at Onstage though and a little taste of what you will see soon....





In the meantime there are some other exciting things happening to keep you going until January..



http://www3.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ItemList.aspx?categoryID=120600

Just one more day to get some great bargains on the old favourites.  Just click on the pic above to see the list of stamp sets.

Here is a card I made recently with the "Big News" Stamp Set which is marked down!  It is just so versatile.  I also used the "Dotty Angles" Stamp Set for the border (This one is not in the sale list)

There is also the "Gorgeous Grunge" Stamp Set on sale.  Woohoo!!!  I use this set every chance I get :)

Also for the very first time Stampin' Up! is offering a Retirement List for the current Holiday Catalogue so if you have had any of these stamp sets on your wish list best grab them now, while supplies last, before they are gone forever. 


Just pop on over to my website here to see the full list and have fun shopping.



Happy Stamping

November News

Hi there Stampers

Well where has the time gone.  I have been a little tardy with my Blog lately and it has been nearly 4 weeks since I have updated!!!  Sorry about that but time has just got away from me.

I have had my Grand Daughter Peri's 1st birthday party on the weekend.  Her actual birthday is tomorrow - the 11th - so all the family got together on Sunday and sang Happy Birthday to Peri and ate cupcakes as you do at a 1st birthday party :) :)  It was a "Sunshine" themed arvo and so I made a card to fit the theme.



I have also been super busy preparing for Stampin' Up!s OnStage Event coming up.  The main event is being held in Brussels, Belgium on November 13th - 15th and will be streamed live partially to all those Demonstrators who are unable to attend.  Local Events have also been prepared for many cities in the United States as well as Auckland in New Zealand and Perth and Melbourne in Australia.

This is one of the many reasons I love being a Demonstrator.  I am popping down to Melbourne with my very good friend and fellow Demonstrator, Sonia, this weekend to attend the all day event on Saturday and we will get to see the new Occasions Catalogue which will be available early in January.  So sorry but will not be able to share this with you until it goes live in January.

We will also learn about some new products and a peek at the 2016 Sale-a -Bration promotion also.

I have made a few swaps to share with fellow Demonstrators using a different technique with the Modern Mosiac Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and my favourite colour at the moment - Tip Top Taupe.




I have also made a card to donate to the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) here in Australia.  These cards are given to children and families who are in hospital for a length of time.  It is made using the "Sprinkles of Life" Stamp Set which also is a very special stamp set in that for every set sold $3.00 is donated to the Charity in the State where it is purchased.  



The next Onstage Event being held in Australia will be on the Gold Coast in April 2016.  Join my Team of "Sunnie Coast Stampers" and you can join me at this fun event too.  Just send me an email here if you would like to know more about joining my Team :)

Happy stamping everyone 
Janette
