Autumn/Winter Mini Catalogue!

Hi all,



My computer broke down early last month, and is still not back. According to the courier, it will be returned to me this week, and then I will be able to begin the process of re-installing my programs. I am kicking myself for not having all my files backed up properly... I will not make that mistake again :(

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 had to brave this computer to post the brand new Autumn/Winter Mini Catalogue, because it is awesome! Click here to view it.

If you would like your own copy, and haven't received it yet, contact me and I'll drop/post it to you.

I'm also taking bookings for April, May & June workshops - contact me to organise a date for a fun & free Stampin' Up! workshop.

Looking forward to getting my computer back, & being able to check in on my blog friends as well!

Genelle.

Summer Mini is here!

Hi all,

The Summer Mini catalogue has been live since 1st December! If you haven't already received your copy, contact me (or your usual demonstrator) for your own copy. You can also view it online here or from the picture in my sidebar.


Some of my wider team recently held a Summer Mini swap, so I will be showing you some new creations once I have received my swap cards.

Since everything is so busy with the Christmas rush right now, I will be holding my Summer Mini catalogue launch in January. More details will be sent out in my January newsletter. If you're not already on my mailing list, you can click here to visit my demonstrator website and request my newsletter. You won't want to miss some great specials coming up really soon!

I will be back once all my cards are in the mail (finally I've got the long-distance gifts away - over $100 in postage over the past 2 days, eek!) to show you some of the gifts and cards I've been working on.

Genelle.

Autumn/Winter Launch Photos

Hi everyone,

I've finally made some time to photograph some of the creations from my mini catalogue launch last weekend. I had a lot of fun - some of my friends had never stamped before, and some have been stamping for a lot longer than me, and I think everyone enjoyed themselves!

The picture above is of the table gift - Kraft pillow boxes with chocolate hearts inside. Each guest's initial was stamped on the curly label in either Soft Suede, Melon Mambo or Rich Razzleberry (our new In Colours). The leaves are from the new Extra Large 2-Step Bird punch.

Below are some projects using the Big Shot and the Cottage Wall colour scheme:

Another quick card using the Movers & Shapers die:

Different ways to use the Fancy Favour die (and some more new colour combos):

We did two Make & Take projects on the day. For the first one, the ladies used one of the In Colours with the 'A Little Treat' stamp set and punches to make this cute balloon:

I thought Rich Razzleberry would be the most popular new colour, but Melon Mambo won the day! So many different sentiments fit inside the 1 3/8" circle punch, too.

The second card we made was a monochromatic card using the Extra Large 2-Step Bird punch (colours were Baja Breeze, Chocolate Chip or Riding Hood Red):

The ladies were so creative with these ones, and we had varying colour schemes, beautiful tulips, stamped backgrounds and different layouts. I wish I'd had my camera there.

I got the idea for using coordinating DSP on the bird's wing from Fiona Platzer's blog.

Thanks to all who attended, and congratulations again to those of you who won prizes! I hope you had a great afternoon,

Genelle.
