 Hello Stampers

Wow!!     Isn't this year just flashing in front of our eyes??  We are half way through March already!!

I have just come back from the Annual Stampin' Up® OnStage Event in Sydney and we had the best time ever!  Lots of new techniques and new products coming up soon. We met up with other Demonstrator Friends from all over Australia, New Zealand, Canada and The United States.  We swapped card front ideas and other fun little projects and came home with lots of goodies.

A new May - August Catalogue starting on May 5 till August 31.


There will now be 3 Catalogues issued each year and No main Annual Catalogue.  They will be available May- August; September - December and January - April.
You will be able to get your hands on one of these sometime during April.  If you are one of my regular customers there will be one in the mail to you as soon as I can purchase the packs.  Otherwise if you would like a copy just email me here and I will get one in the mail to you.

One of the most exciting new things coming up commencing 1 April 2026 is the introduction of "Paper Pumpkin" to All Markets including us here in Australia. 👏👏👏👏


What is "Paper Pumpkin" you ask???  In a nutshell it is a Surprise Kit available each month for a Subscription.  How exciting is that??  








I get to be a part of the Launch First one just like you but as I went to the OnStage Event in Sydney I received my first one called "Lakeside Retreat"  as a Gift.  A great perk of being a Demonstrator and able to attend these OnStage Events 😀😀😀

As they are "Surprise" Kits and you don't know what you are getting each time I will not show you the contents of my Kit yet 😉but I am really looking forward to doing it.

Paper Pumpkin subscription kits are designed for anyone who wants to quickly and easily create beautiful, handmade projects—anytime and anywhere! Subscribers get a new, surprise project every month—one that’s great for all types of crafters. And it’s an ongoing crafting experience that will keep you and your customers motivated and engaged.

Each kit includes an exclusive photopolymer stamp set, a Stampin’ Spot, and step-by-step instructions for beautifully designed, precut paper crafting projects. Everything is ready to stamp, assemble, and share for a fun and easy experience. 

WHAT ARE THE PERKS OF BEING A PAPER PUMPKIN SUBSCRIBER?

In addition to a surprise project every month, subscribers enjoy extra perks including:

  • Auto shipment with shipping included. Sign up once and the kit is automatically delivered with no additional shipping charges on a pay-as-you-go and prepaid subscriptions.
  • Access to exclusive products. Active subscribers can purchase refills, past kits, and add-ons, that are only available to them.
  • Connect with fellow subscribers, discover alternate samples, and share creative ideas in a fun, supportive space. Take your ideas beyond the box.
  • FREE gifts and Stampin’ Up! suite coordination. Occasionally, subscribers receive a gift in their box or the kit coordinates with a selection of other products for even more crafting fun.
  • Stampin’ Rewards with each kit! Earn Stampin’ Rewards each month with the pay-as-you-go subscription or get them all upfront with any prepaid subscription.

There will be Pay-as-you-Go Subscriptions or Prepaid Subscriptions.

More info coming as we get closer to the 1st April.  Hope you are as excited as I am!!!

More exciting news coming soon but until then 

Happy Stamping

 Hello Stampers

Well now it is February!!! Slow down year!!!  So a new month brings a new "Product of the Month"  I don't know what the one for February is yet?  I will find out this week though.

So January's "Product of the Month" was the stamp set called "Fabulous Phrases" and I loved the font in this set and the stamps are all a fairly large size.

I created a couple of cards using it to add to my stash of Birthday Cards for the year.  I have also used the January "Product of the Month" - "True Blue Florals" 12" x12" Designer Series Paper.  I hope you all managed to get your hands on both of these products as they are not available for sale as yet.  They may come available sometime in the near future.  So keep your eye out for the upcoming March "Product of the Month"  on my website here and grab it quick, just $9.00, with a qualifying order of $125.00



This one I can add "It's your Birthday" to the front if needed or leave it as is.


This one is all ready to pop in the post when the next birthday comes up.  Who doesn't love to receive happy mail in their mailbox?  I don't know about you but I hardly get anything in my mailbox these days except the occasional "junk mail".



It is Bonus Coupon time again and today is the last day to earn those valuable $9.00 coupons to spend during February.  So pop on over to my website here and send through your order today and earn yourself a $9.00 Bonus Code



How exciting we have a new Stamp Positioning Tool and you can get it in your hot little hands from the 3rd February for FREE when you join my Team and the fun Stampin' Up! Family.  For just $169.00 you can choose $235.00 worth of any product from the 2 current catalogues or Online items as well.  Just send me an email here if you would like to know more 😊

So lots to think about this month and, of course, lots of fun crafting time to be had.

Happy Stamping
