I’m so excited about many of the adorable projects in here. Seriously. Just have a look through the catalogue and you’ll know why!

And now might be a reeeeeeeeally good time to have a serious think about joining Stampin’ Up!. I’d love to welcome you on board and show you what a fabulous opportunity this is. Imagine… you could get all your Stampin’ Up! goodies at a hefty discount, and even make money if you are keen to kickstart a business.

But did you know that Sale-a-bration is the BEST time to join?

DURING Sale-a-bration the deal is sweetened even more! Join for only $169 (yep, that’s all!) and you’ll get:

  • $235 worth of products of your choice
  • >>> Sale-a-bration bonus: PLUS an additional 2 free stamp sets from either the Annual or Occasions catalogues (that’s an added value of up to $179)
  • FREE SHIPPING on your starter kit
  • Me as your upline! And you’ll become one of the EurekaStampers – the friendliest, most awesome bunch of creative demonstrators in the country (yes I’m a little biased). But seriously, we have a wonderful team of friendly crafters from all over Australia and you would be welcomed straight away.
  • The freedom to choose what you do with your Stampin’ Up! demonstratorship. Save money, or make money! Or both. You won’t find any pushiness, but you WILL find help and support if/when you need it.

Save the Date: Melbourne Planner Market

Published by under cards

Happy new year friends!

What a whirlwind few weeks it has been. I hope you had an awesome Christmas and rang in the new year in a fine way.

I say 2017 is going to be absolutely amazing!

Of course the best thing about a brand new year is setting up my planners for the new year.

 

Are you a planner girl/guy?

If you haven’t been indoctrinated into the world of planners then the rest of this post may not make much sense. The planner community is huge (check out some of the Facebook groups to see what I mean).

To get 2017 off to a great start I’ve been getting my planner setup ready.

I’ve got my new inserts (trying out the awesome day to a page inserts from Life is Crafted this year), and put my Robin’s Egg Carpe Diem planner aside while I (very carefully) started using my rose gold Kikki-K planner.

Yes, it’s the one with the flakey gold 🙁

But after looking at it fondly for a few months I just had to take it out of the box and use it. I mean, what’s the point otherwise?

 

So my new set up is ready to go. For now.  If there’s any interest I’d be happy to share how I set up my planners to help me be more productive (hint – leave a comment if you are!).

Anyway, what I want to share TODAY is some awesome news.

Victoria is getting it’s very own planner market!

The Melbourne Planner Market is coming to Kensington for one day only (hopefully more if it’s a big success) so get your … ahem… planners out and lock in this date: February 12th 2017. No need to use the Frixion markers on this one, go for that permanent Very Special Pen to write this baby down.

 

Tricia (from the Speckled Sparrow) and I will be sharing how we use the awsome Stampin’ Up! products in our planners. Stampin’ Up! is a paper crafting company of course, with plenty to keep us card makers and scrapbookers happy. But did you know just how versatile our products are? Oh my goodness. You are going to be blown away!

So come along and check out what we have to share. There are around 30 stallholders to the event and even better – it’s FREE ENTRY! Yay for that.

Are you coming?

Leave me a comment below, or even better make sure you like & follow my Facebook page. I’ll be sharing some of my favourite planner tips in the coming weeks and you won’t want to miss it.

 

Happy stamping,

So out they go… retiring Christmas products, overstocked items and clearance rack bargains.

 

SHOP THE YEAR END CLOSEOUT SALE

Stampin' Up! Australia - Stitched with Cheer

 

 

Wondering what’s retiring from the Holiday Catalogue?

Click HERE to download the PDF document

Click HERE to download the sortable Excel spreadsheet

 

A couple of quick notes: 

  1. When you look in the online store you’ll notice the Year End Closeout link has 4 categories: Stamps, Bundles, Paper and ‘Everything Else’. Make sure you select ‘view all’ on the Everything Else page, otherwise you’ll only see the first of 5 pages of products.
  2. Sale-a-bration is around the corner, and so is the release of the new Occasions Catalogue. It all kicks off on January 3.  I’m now taking bookings for cardmaking workshops into February and I’d love to do one for you! If you are in Victoria just get in touch and we’ll see what we can work out. Everything supplied and you’ll learn tips and techniques while we stamp together.

 

That’s it for me today, but don’t hesitate to jump over to my Facebook page to keep up with all the daily happenings.

Happy stamping,
