Just a quick reminder that we only have a few days left of the Stocking Punch Sneak Peek promotion.
If you want to get your hands on this gorgeous punch and/or the coordinating stamp set, you can:
1. Get the PUNCH and STAMP SET for FREE by placing an order of $450+ before the 31st of October
OR
2. Purchase the punch for $33.95 and/or the Stitched Stocking stamp set for $53.95 (wood) or $42.95 (clear) before October 31st.



REMEMBER: This is only valid until the end of October. The punch and stamp set won't reappear until the Summer Mini Catalogue is released on the 1st of December.

The Well Worn Designer Series Paper is perfect with this fireplace card. The pack includes patterns that look like bricks, carpet and wallpaper!

Happy stamping,


Bula!
We're back from our fabulous time away in Fiji on the Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip.
As promised, I kept a journal of our adventures. It's on a separate page (link below) so you can skip it if you want, or feel free to grab a cuppa and join me in re-living the amazing experience.

Today I'm sharing the swap I made to give to all the other achieving demonstrators.

It's a disc holder, complete with blank DVD to store photos of the Fiji trip. It's a fun idea for workshop make & takes or a class project too.

Cheers,

Now they are two things you don't often hear in the one sentence!
But first, an update. We're busily getting ready for the Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip which is on this week. Destination: Fiji. So exciting!
I'd love to say I'll be updating my blog while I'm away but in reality I don't think that's going to happen. I'll do what I did last year though, and keep track of all the things we get up to. I promise I'll share when I get home next week. 🙂
Now, back to this very cool idea from fellow demonstrator and team member Debbie.

Debbie picked up some plain fairy lights from Ikea around Christmastime last year, and decorated them thanks to the Big Shot and Stampin'Up! dies. I just love this idea.
This string of lights is embellished with flowers from the Blossom Party XL die.
HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN:
1. Cut flowers from felt and tulle.
2. Punch holes through the middle of the flowers with the Cropadile.
3. Push flowers down over the lights.
So simple, yet really effective.
Have a great week, and happy stamping,
