<br />
Stampin' Up! announced a great promotion today...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkS5CMo50MC-ODE0qNK-xU_VvEyV33ZLaNpiTNWEoRrYWhcshAIKfXUSJ0x46R5e_h5ecfM0OeZJb1urKR2ssb6PZTjUVcHfv6Poc39PRvxcTPYB0J_sByaJ9wk2biilSDekYklQs6TX8/s1600/promo.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="282" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkS5CMo50MC-ODE0qNK-xU_VvEyV33ZLaNpiTNWEoRrYWhcshAIKfXUSJ0x46R5e_h5ecfM0OeZJb1urKR2ssb6PZTjUVcHfv6Poc39PRvxcTPYB0J_sByaJ9wk2biilSDekYklQs6TX8/s320/promo.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
All parties/workshops totalling $400, from now until 30th May, will earn the hostess an extra $60 in hostess dollars - that's $120!! This includes catalogue parties too, so why not collect a few orders and enjoy $120 in free Stampin' Up! goodies?<br />
<br />
If you decide to join my team as a demonstrator, you'll get to choose $60 worth of extra products in your Starter Kit, too! Remember, you don't need to 'demonstrate' to be in my team - you can simply order at a discount if you wish.<br />
<br />
Place your order online, or check out the great offer at my website:<br />

<br />
Have a great evening,<br />
Genelle.<br />

<br />
Did you notice my new blog header? My Digital Studio, the digital design software from Stampin' Up!, has finally been released in Australia! I have downloaded it and my first project was to re-design my blog header.<br />
<br />
You can go to my brand new online store, on my website (<a href="http://genellelittle.stampinup.net/" target="_blank">click here</a> and click the 'Shop Now' button, top right) and download the trial versions of My Digital Studio (MDS) for FREE!<br />
<br />
You can also now place your Stampin' Up! orders with me online, day or night. Of course, if you want any assistance with your order, you can continue to call or email me and I will place your orders in person for you.<br />
<br />
I'm looking forward to adding MDS classes to my schedule!<br />
<br />
Happy shopping :)<br />
Genelle.<br />

Hi all,<br />
<br />
I haven't updated my blog for a while - but I've still been working and stamping each day. I've been updating my facebook business page, though!<br />
<br />
You can find my page here:<a href="http://www.facebook.com/genellelittle"> http://www.facebook.com/genellelittle </a><br />
<br />
If you've seen the cover of the Stampin' Up! Holiday catalogue, you'll recognise this ornament:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I chose to make a quicker version, and simply used the Ornament framelits to cut Designer Series Paper (from the Festival of Prints pack) instead of cutting stamped images, like the ornament on the catalogue cover.<br />
<br />
Although it seems Christmas is coming way too quickly, I am so excited, and actually a bit organised this year! I've been running a Christmas Card Club since July, so I already have a healthy stash of cards made. (Contact me if you'd like to join in for October and November).<br />
<br />
Happy stamping,<br />

<br />
I'm back from the annual Stampin' Up! Convention - this year it was in Canberra! Here I am swapping outside Memento Mall (imagine a huge room, decorated with awesome Stampin' Up! decor and filled with lots of excited demonstrators shopping for exclusive Stampin' Up! merchandise!!).<br />
<i>Thanks to the official photographer for this picture.</i><br />
<i><br /></i><br />
While at Convention, we were bombarded with heaps of exciting new products and information, and also some great promotions! The 'We ♥ Our Hostesses' promotion runs until 31st July, and you can earn even more Hostess benefits! Contact me to book your workshop - or Stampin' Up! party, as they're now being called :)<br />

Just a reminder that there are only a few days left of Sale-a-bration and the Summer Mini catalogue. Contact me if you'd like to order before it's too late, and choose your Sale-a-bration freebies!<br />
<br />
I hope you like my blog 'facelift'... I am very blog-challenged so it has been fun to experiment and design my own template. I can't wait until we have Stampin' Up!'s My Digital Studio in Australia - then my blog will be absolutely personalised! (No, that's not a hint that it's coming... just wishful thinking!)<br />
<br />
What is the reason for a bit of effort into my blog? The lovely and very talented Tina White has nominated me for a Blog Award - the Liebster Blog Award. "Leibster" is German for "dearest". This award is a 'share the love' arrangement, given to inspirational bloggers with less than 200 followers, to bring attention to their blog and increase their following! I have to pick 5 more recipients whose blogs I think you would enjoy. Pop on over to see what they've done, and you can become a follower too!<br />
<br />
Here's what I have to do:<br />
1. Show your thanks to the blogger who gave you the award.<br />
Thank you Tina!<br />
<br />
2. Link back to the blogger who presented you the award.<br />
You can find the very talented and very lovely Tina <a href="http://timetoinkup.blogspot.com.au/">here</a>.<br />
<br />
3. Copy and paste the award to your blog.<br />
It's on the right sidebar :)<br />
<br />
4. Present the Award to 5 other deserving bloggers with less than 200 followers (see below) and<br />
5. Let them know you've awarded them the Liebster Award by leaving a comment on their blog.<br />
<br />
So, here are my 5 picks for you to visit - these people are inspiring to me and you will love them too!<br />
<a href="http://angiescraftfusion.blogspot.com.au/">Angie Jones</a><br />
<a href="http://russellislandcrafter.blogspot.com.au/">Cherie Sutcliffe</a><br />

I am excitedly waiting for my new catalogue to arrive, along with some awesome goodies I was able to preorder from Stampin' Up!<br /><br />Sadly, with all the new products arriving, some products have to be retired... I will really miss some of these items, and some have already sold out.<br /><br />You can view the list <a href="http://www3.stampinup.com/au/ena/8480.asp">by clicking here</a>.<br /><br />These items have already sold out:<br />Jumbo Eyelets - Antique Brass, Jumbo Eyelets - Pewter, Metallic Eyelets, Star Punch, Spiral Punch, Photo Corners punch.<br /><br />Here is a card I made recently, with the Beware Pirates set - I will miss this one immensely and it is now available at 25% off!<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 295px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5637539894482117154" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHmMH6NQCfLF90Uy_iGb6IrqszL4WWADokZAwuvF3DvKaBQPXQIhMATulsMWvK-7CvpNi7_Li0jcBjcNhw3ruvk1ohsbeHb8PlXSOQ68plgsrVMVGc1yGp4A-CKQ46_SgUTudhVS24btQ/s400/piratebirthday.jpg" /><br /><br /><p><br />Hope you each have a great weekend,<br />Genelle.<br /></p>Genelle Littlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14057471581450460286noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1115368975692066918.post-53218890754031708862011-06-09T11:47:00.007+10:002011-06-09T12:13:32.571+10:00Finally :)Hi all,<br /><br />I've just finished sorting out all the downloading/re-installing and watermark issues that have kept me from my blog for so long.

Convention. This year was the first one I have attended, and it was the first time it had been a 3-day event, so it was really exciting! Also, Stampin' Up! is celebrating 5 years in Australia, so we were treated to some extra 'birthday' goodies!<br /><br />I was also very lucky to win Prize Patrol in one of the general sessions!<br /><br />Highlights of the trip included catching up with team members from across Australia, and attending my first Manager's Reception, which was stunning. I was also thoroughly spoiled by my roommates, <a href="http://www.timetoinkup.blogspot.com/">Tina</a>, <a href="http://www.stampwithkim.com.au/blog/">Kim</a> and <a href="http://www.chrissie-chrissiesworld.blogspot.com/">Chrissie</a>, and got to meet my lovely blog friend, <a href="http://inkurablekrafter.blogspot.com/">Fi,</a> in person for the first time!<br /><br />Here is a picture of the gift I received at Manager's Reception:<br /><br /><p></p><br /><br /><br /><p></p><br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 379px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5616042327160851362" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTqqxBtnv2ziWR8E88oRIHPeym_A_A4i7Tzoc3AJmO8YA2cfSWOQPoCttxPl9cUY_3dfD3vo0zJNFbHKFU1Ngh84p134XHdHjKE7wq4Y7AjC653cgdeUoiUwD7_P40rA8JoE_bO28jOsg/s400/managergift.jpg" /><br /><br />And the invitation we received prior to leaving home:<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5616042329350541282" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilAeL91yx1ofqgrnkliHinS7KpP4KkxkaqcMBWF6O5hGCpMhW78x4Ah7okaKUm0XRgL7U0O5SP64jBxQuEVGC807ogWpMME0DcwfWvehMM2BN0Jqpse590vn29MbLHjzqa_kC1TfL6uJE/s400/managercard.jpg" /><br /><br />Of course, one of the highlights for me was the food as well! Our team headed out to Lygon St in Carlton on the Friday night, for a lot of adventures and, (I'm not exaggerating) the BEST meal I've ever eaten! And, to make it even better, we were served a similar meal for the entree the next night, at the Awards Dinner. </p><br /><p><br />Here is the entree: </p><br /><p></p><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 331px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5616042316640596690" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJfVAXQ3yEKpeSVVcDGwbJ1g294DWmbuA7ks0dsPCTiOXf4I2nQdVTsdRYnC7ED2ANWL_cIDjTY72PEpyEsYBbKkxQr-LmZTq_0_oOg1tfphM1pHCPGbIMceaIknN5lL_z7AawaoD0Kec/s400/entree.jpg" /><br /><br />And main course: <br /><p></p><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 346px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5616042321695046642" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUAOR82N6acmIkGbBUAuAq_2zNVaB_iJ9Hij7A-syjnwxqwQYM-uJYfKxmpMlJC2ke18ujA4FZKSGN-_FIaZ1lF8NP2WsR2mUoZWHYVuAp_-uhtjhPEb7RlHA79OidFxFfce0EkuJlP2Q/s400/main.jpg" /><br /><br />And dessert, complete with a chocolate '5' for Stampin' Up!'s five years in Australia! <br /><p></p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 351px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5616042307751011042" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFs1_zaMJAcnQEUF-0rE0UR5StbENm8ZxQDF9YD_qskFS8z-h62iBWWKOQgXMhfvqoyo7rhROuMaUc0ByhgUpTaeFYcnocKK5DD23S8rMuiKWgXHHQ7b2GB8KqR19cZ2Y_w5QyzDA_OVQ/s400/dessert.jpg" /><br /><br />One of the big announcements from Convention is that you no longer need an ABN to join Stampin' Up!

I am kicking myself for not having all my files backed up properly... I will not make that mistake again :( <br /><br />Needless to say, my blog has been neglected - I have been lucky to be able to use my husband's computer to keep up-to-date with my email, and business stuff.

I was thrilled that some of my Night Owl Stampers team joined in as well! It is a lot of fun to create and receive some papercraft goodness at Christmas time.</div><div><br />You can see the amazing gifts I received from my Secret Santa, the lovely Angie Jones,<a href="http://angiescraftfusion.blogspot.com/2010/12/secret-santa-i-sent.html"> here</a>. (Angie's photos of these gorgeous projects are better than mine- make sure you check out her beautiful blog too!) </div><div><br />The first gift I sent my Secret Santa (Christina) was a box containing five Ferrero Rocher chocolates:</div><div>(sorry the pics are not the best, they were done in the Christmas rush!) </div><div><br /></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 202px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559941398044582562" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhr0ZYYIVogOb770c3P9qLdadX5Y0AzHBeNIb5TI1WfDDNPxyIrGZaDunM8yZbn7qn58-dlCX0lJ1IbGCFKwmNfc3AihZCDE8lK0ikr5J_6rCEFavrisScV98QZeeAC0LNqiwks3To2UPw/s400/ssfererroclosed.jpg" /><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559941394243174098" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqczS7wq4g1gLwYT3JMZ2O0Bzainwc5MAUEQ8L2sMlXkajuOwpCh7eaIIxz8uZlFs_nDBM7rTj7neWb1O_SGEnjMD-i7HDKq7sAm_EDnItG4BHYBkJkTken3XJitVQwwzq4UbNZZYOwgA/s400/ssferreroopen.jpg" /><br /><div>And here is her Christmas present, a folder containing Big Shot embossing folders:</div><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 362px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559941407069438146" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7cCinbjToJkaAiJhYlbNkx6zlO3X2sZ_ptO0EegfIa4TN5nXp3Bg7QSn0fweIXmq7t6Fbu7Nd1ntwcOBgBDZ27R-VfmhHnr0rLGvQHf2DA9tVZNpRPsQMKEK_UUj-GHZQsMKJUxhAlVo/s400/ssbigshotfolder.jpg" /><br />It is usual for me to forget to take photos of things before I send them, so I wasn't surprised to realise I don't have a photo of the Christmas card I made... I used the Medallion stamp with the emboss resist technique, and I was really happy with how it turned out - you'll have to take my word for it! :)<br /><br /><div>I'm glad to have met Angie in person, at SU Regional Training in Brisbane. Now we are looking forward to catching up again in Melbourne this year for the Stampin' Up! Convention! I can't wait. </div><div>If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, contact me to find out more!</div><div></div><div>Hope you are enjoying your weekend, I'll be back tomorrow with another project to show you.</div><div>Genelle.</div></div>Genelle Littlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14057471581450460286noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1115368975692066918.post-70655485814844738882010-12-30T01:00:00.000+10:002010-12-30T01:00:02.565+10:00Valentine's Day already?Hi all,<br /><br />Although it's not quite the New Year yet, it's time for a new promotion from Stampin' Up!<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 340px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 122px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555973311593914546" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSu-c68Gn7eU-ps6W9Qv5xKmj5f0u22RnGXh2-SLUSCmsFFy1JZXn8SUKywbfNblHoaLq6_b9XVeIy9Pw129xx_mTRFrNFZRb6jnrKVBipnWRbqIQOlvrskW0AKrnzOkVkdnGwLTaQZ48/s400/sweethearts_jan.jpg" /> Simply purchase the Sweetheart stamp set (in either clear-mount, for $29.95, or wood-mount for $38.95) and receive a free pack of Heart Treat Cups!<br />Or, purchase the Full Heart punch ($33.95) and you'll also receive a pack of Heart Treat Cups!<br /><br />If you purchase the Sweetheart stamp set and the coordinating Full Heart punch, you'll get two packets of Heart Treat Cups for free!<br /><br />You can add any other items from the Idea Book & Catalogue or Summer Mini catalogue to your order as well if you wish.

It has felt like Tuesday for me all day (even though it's Wednesday) because of the public holiday yesterday... trying to catch up on all the household jobs today.</div><div>Here are a couple of items I made for our Christmas table - we celebrated lunch with family. I made some very simple mini easel cards (all one piece, since they were small) for our place cards:</div><div> </div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 376px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555958747026375810" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijYwwppfSdTl8ZlX7ziNxWQV6IM7QfgXRTiYmCjTuqzsA_-061V1uNt5yVjLJ20aHsvi2AanlrZMpwFyB6eX5y8su6t_ruxs3Szh-k0jpwf9IV2sGE6jnKCBSeOSwlflCqhrYqUcaE6RU/s400/placecard.jpg" /><br /><div>And I have had these little cuties bookmarked <a href="http://addinktivedesigns.blogspot.com/2009/12/candy-cane-mouse.html">from Bronwyn Eastley's blog here </a>since last Christmas - I even tried to make them for my Christmas in July event, but could not find any candy canes anywhere! So I've finally had a chance to make them (my son helped, which you can probably tell!) I changed the ears and left off the whiskers:</div><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 360px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555958096694150322" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivYqCVCYs5FtcYkbANDp2udw8Rm-gHeE1cWFQlJ6Pkp_cPNBOdRk85TTmZ7qbnuMnnJDrbEeVqrOpSr1DK-vt3dwCiTG15pttbOUUddrWF3kJ0dwIkTYxEeU-SskyehHbDLAjoZ1hca1s/s400/mouse.jpg" /><br /><div>Lastly, here are some skinny treat bags filled with M&Ms....yum! The ones hiding at the back contain Crispy Mint M&Ms, which don't go with my colour scheme, so they are hiding! <a href="http://angiescraftfusion.blogspot.com/">Angie Jones</a> had the idea to use Crispy Mint M&Ms as a cute Christmas version of an after dinner mint, and I got the topper idea from <a href="http://www.stampinbliss.com.au/blog/">Adele Khoo</a>:</div><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555958086148027202" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDs7vpu17IAx010gZ1nV8vwdeQLdFZ1zAqzK9sOlBIDcm_S6-f0onuYtKvPIwLuRzR93Q2eJVPxqrfL88pGMJ97PZJPhOWU_rn4EAlMoacuU2EBbuAvI1_Yc0jWMPqxhnMXCLbGN1Bx4o/s400/treatbags.jpg" /><br /><div>The holder is simply a decorated Fancy Favour box using the Big Shot - I love it! I've decorated it with Jolly Holiday DSP, Very Vanilla satin ribbon and Holly & Jolly rub-ons. Here's a closer view of the box:</div><div> </div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 329px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555957319477070610" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoTFr-DF74HfIVmEVedznHl_g4VeIPo5ltJi72GlqgaiaeL4q_y1SYUTgImr7_P5INuqiTyghCNbMbhnkqHrCVZo7efl0iD-HUFvFBim34ThrYYd9nKr7-cDyUCRGOIgPEOiKSrBGtkyA/s400/favourbox.jpg" /><br /><div>And lastly, not a craft-related photo... but one of my pudding! I always use my Nanna's recipe, which Mum always made for us growing up. As I was listening to it simmering away this year I thought about all the Christmas memories and traditions in our family. It made me a bit sentimental and I am contemplating making a Christmas scrapbook album to record these special memories... since you know scrapping is a huge challenge for me, we'll see how that goes!<br /></div><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 334px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555956948377905746" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibhcHYTJ8EvVvLIAPVChWgiZoVUH-QhAlDd4Wy3slchsTQ9jSwJogfMR9RrLenpmCTrzt04jry_EYqkCa1M2RpErN3LsgVP1557SeRkf8B5s3odo3Zj7wufP4KF3TQUwU0avD8EV5uYxU/s400/pudding.jpg" /><br /><div>I'll be back tomorrow with a new special from Stampin' Up! and some more projects,</div><div>Genelle. </div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Genelle Littlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14057471581450460286noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1115368975692066918.post-66648531405967414492010-12-18T10:34:00.002+10:002010-12-18T10:39:07.656+10:00December FrenzyHi again,<br /><br />Just a reminder that the December Frenzy items will no longer be available at the amazing sale prices after 29th December.
