Community Card Class

Just a few pics of some of the cards we made at the Kingston East Neighborhood Group Card class... in  2016



We have so much fun at our classes.. It is something I really look forward to.. getting together with lovely people and sharing some creativity every week is definitely food for the soul!!!












This simple Valentines card is so easy to create... and it was a hit.. sometimes you need a SIMPLE card and that is enough!!!


Punch Art is Always a hit in Thursday Card Class,,,,
how cute is this sophisticated to-phat, monical and Mostache card for a man in your life... It's super easy and cute..

I love it when my ladies play with what I give them to do... the Rose Garden card in the middle is the "sample card".. and this is what a couple of ladies did... Colouring a diffent way (yellow) and using HEAPS of glitter...

 And if you smudge it you can use a few butterflies to cover the mistake.. :P

This Poor neglected Blog!!!!

Life is ALWAYS changing and isn't it GREAT??!!
As you can see this poor blogg of mine has been SADLY neglected.. but with two teenagers.. High school commitments and sports commitments and friends social lives, Church commitments, Choir rehearsals. Craft Classes, Working 3 different jobs, Hubbie commitments.. fixing the house.... taxi Driving....  and fitting all of that around my JOB/HOBBY that I LOVE... (Stampin' UP!!!) Well.. It seems I had to let go of some things.. but I am making a resolution now to make more of an effort to post on here more often!!!

I seem to be able to post onto Face Book quite easily.. so why not just copy and paste onto here??? That shouldn't be too hard right?!!!  lets see how well I can keep up with my resolution....

Well for starters Our new 2016-2017Catalogue is due to come out soon!!!! Wahoooooo.. I can't wait until we can show the GORGEOUS products and projects that are in this catty.. I reccon it is one of THE BEST EVA!!!  I've been a Demo for 9 years now.. and this year we celebrated the10th year of being in the South Pacific.. Australia and New Zealand... and I had a great time this year at the On Stage Event.. As I went to New Zealand with a fellow Creative Angel... (Jen) When it was announced that the New On Stage events would take over from the Convention type events as we knew them.... and then announced that they would be held in several different countries  with a live broadcast from Salt Lake... and Local On Stage presenters in various countries...  We (Jen and I) spoke briefly about how much fun that could be.. and how we would like to go to New Zealand as the New Zealanders have had to come to us for the last 7 years!!! It seemed only fair.. So in the beginning of this year Jen called me and asked if I was serious about going to NZ for the On Stage Event.... HELL YEAH!!!! SO COOL!!!!... Right then and there we decided to make our Dream and wish of going overseas for a Stampin' Up event (and to travel) a REALITY....

A few days after I registered for the event I was contacted by Emma from NZ head office... And she asked me if I would do a 15 min presentation... arrrggghhhh... But I said yes.. what was the worst that could happen??

We had such a  wonderful time... We met so many BEAUTIFUL people.. and were invited and welcomed into a Wonderful NZ team of Demonstrators...  We stayed with the lovely Stephanie and Paula's parents.. We got lifts to places we needed to go and we were looked after so wonderfully...  Stampin' Up! Demos are just like extended family... It's such a wonderful organisation to belong to...  I love it... And NZ it's self is TRULY BEAUTIFUL!!!

There is so much more to tell about our trip toe NZ and the Onstage event... but i must keep it brief at this stage as I don't want to wear myself out on the first blog post for almost 2 years!!! I cant believe it's been that long!!!!!!

So here is a photo or two that I can show from the Onstage event in NZ.... yeah...

Yellow Bear NZ

See the CUTE little Yellow Bear Peeking from behind the On Stage sign???  We were made to feel like one of the family with the Yellow Bear Team!!! XXXOOO

This is how CRAZY we get when we see the NEW CATALOGUE!!!! (The Beautiful Paula... and her new Catalogue....)

New Hostess Benefit rewards program.

I’m really excited to share with you how AWESOME Stampin’ Up!s NEW ‘hostess’ benefits are. I'm not sure if you all realise that if you place a customer order over $300, you will be eligible for these very same benefits. What's even cool for me is that when 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 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! And I get to meet wonderful people such as yourselves....  I hope that I can inspire you to enjoy and use all 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. I just wanted you to know that if you order $300 of product, you too will receive the ‘hostess benefits’.

Introducing Stampin' Up!'s Colour Renovation!

Official Announcement from Stampin' UP! on the 7th of April 2010

"We are pleased to introduce our Colour Renovation! Because colour is fundamental to who we are as a company, and what you offer as a demonstrator, it's important for you to be able to stay up-to-date with trends in colour. We are thrilled to share with you our updated line of colours, and hope you will be as excited as we are by the new possibilities!

The new line of colours will be available with the upcoming 2010-2011 catalogue, but as this is a change that will affect demonstrators worldwide, we wanted to introduce it all at once. More information and tools will be coming later this year as we near the transition, but we wanted you to know the basics now......"

Wow. This really is some exciting news!

Some of our current colours will be discontinued and there will be some brand new colours introduced, along with the return of some of our favourite in-colours!

Our colours will then be organised into 4 Colour Collections, 10 in each family... Which will fit perfectly in my Officeworks 5 draw organisers... hehe... This is rather than the Colour Families we know at the moment (12 in each). As you can see by the picture below some of the colours have moved into different collections and I am liking the way they look - they seem so fresh and vibrant!

There's still quite a bit of time before this comes into effect so don't worry - you will have plenty of time to collect any of your favourite colours that may be discontinued.
If you have favourties that you just can't live without, its a great idea to purchase the ink refill bottle so that your inkpads can last almost forever! And you might like to purchase a pack or 2 of the matching cardstock to see you through.
Honestly I was a little shocked and perhaps pouted for a moment or two when it was first brought to my attention.... but the more I look at the colour collection, and the more time I take to digest the RENOVATION.... the more it grows on me....... I am sure that I will fall in love with the new collections just as much as I love the current ones. As I am sure you will too...
You will see and hear more about this as September draws closer, but for now, enjoy your colours and keep stamping!
