Best wishes for a new year of creative goodness in 2012! I am back from holidays/camp duties and ready to craft. Check back soon for some new projects.

I hope you are enjoying the inspiration in the latest Stampin' Up! summer mini catalogue. If you are wondering which particular stamp set or colour combination are used in a project, here is a handy link to the supplies list.

If you would like your own summer mini, just email me with your address, and I will post you your own copy.

Welcome to Summer...and Christmas is Coming!

Mini Catalogue

1 December is here and that's exciting for two reasons in my household...
  1.  today we'll be hauling out the decorations and putting up the Christmas tree and my kitchen will be smelling  of Christmas baking for the first time this season. 
  2. the Stampin' Up summer mini catalogue is now available for ordering!
Tomorrow (Friday 2 December)  is my monthly card and crop night: still spaces if you want to work on finishing (or starting) your handmade cards and projects. Please email me to book or phone on 09 576 6807

I have been resisting, but I have decided to order some of Simply Adorned range (page 7 in the mini) to make some special gifts... if you would like to learn how to make a unique charm for a bracelet, necklace or key chain, just contact me and we can arrange a special one-on-one tutorial. In this one hour class you can make a personalised necklace charm and finish it off with chain and gift box for only $60. Contact me to discuss other options. I can't wait for my supplies to arrive now!

Say Goodbye...

Gifted Stamp Set Now 40% off


One of my most used stamps last Christmas was “Gifted”. It looks good just stamped in one colour to quickly make a batch of gift cards. Add a little more detail using a couple of markers for selective colour. Or go all the way to a full-sized greeting card.
Sadly it is retiring from the Stampin’ Up! Catalogue at the end of August... but the good news is that it is 40% off while stocks last, now only $28.77 for the clearmount option. You can also pick up the coordinating paper Jolly Holiday for only $12.30! That's just over $1 a sheet for double-sided paper: great value!
 I will be featuring the stamp set Gifted in my Christmas Card Buffet this month, so register now to get some great ideas and 10 beautiful handmade cards. Pre-order Gifted stamp set and Jolly Holiday paper (by 13 August) and attend the class for half price.
