Lets Celebrate...Sale a Bration



A double whammy of delight...the launch of the new spring summer  seasonal catalogue form Stampin' Up!
Thirty nine colourful  pages packed with fabulous products and creative ideas.

There are some great new stamp sets, punches, embossing folders and the designer papers are just beautiful.

As demonstrators we get the chance to advance order and so I have had time to use many of the new products and I will be back later with some of my favourites and some samples too.

Click on the picture to see the full offering and start building your wish list


 As if a brand new seasonal catalogue wasn't enough, it is also the start of our favourite time of the year




So there is cause to celebrate because for every £45 you spend you can earn free products. Click on the pictures to see the full details of what's on offer for 2014.


To check out the bundles  or to see all the fabulous products you can get for free click on the banners


And of course there is never a better time to join Stampin' Up! than during sale-a-bration where your starter kit gets you so much more. I joined during salebration and have never looked back. Check it out by clicking on the picture below and if you have any questions please do let me know

So that is what you need to know to get you started. Have fun with the catalogue and brochures, if you have any questions about any of the products or the offer details please do get in touch  or  if you would like a paper copy of either the catalogue or the saleabration brochure please drop me a line and I'll pop one in the post to you

I will be back later with some thoughts and ideas on the new products.


Until next time, take care

A Fresh New Start

Happy New Year...late I know, but things have been hectic since we began the craft room renovation just before Christmas and my husband went down with a severe case of the decorating bug so it has been non stop  renovations here and my craftroom, while all freshly painted, became a stop gap general paint store while he kept going in the other rooms up here.

Crafting time has been minimal because most of my fabulous supplies are packed away and instead of the ten feet of work table I currently have a  small table just two and  half feet square on which to work....and it is in the middle of the room so things keep sliding off the back of it onto the floor. It is not ideal...


All of this is made worse because I have fabulous new goodies and want to make lots of fab samples and projects to share but it is hard going in these conditions.

I love the fabulous fun new retro papers  I used them in the card on the left... and the new stamp sets have so much potential I am going to have hours of fun with them all.

It is hard to find somewhere with decent light at the moment, and that doesn't look like a construction site, but I will  try to get some decent photos taken of what I have done so far... these include further sneak peeks of products from the upcoming Spring & Summer catalogue.

The renovations will soon be finished and my craftroom will become fully operational... Normal service will be resumed very soon.... my stampin' sanity demands it

Until next time, take care
