The Stampers Mess is now on Facebook!

I’ve added two ways to connect on Facebook. First is my business page, and I’d really appreciate it if you could head on over and like my new…

The Stampers Mess Facebook Page:

It’s early days yet but I’m already posting some things you haven’t seen on here and I have rewards planned when I reach milestone numbers of ‘likers’!


 

And I’ve also set up a new group on Facebook. This is a safe, supportive space to share your Stampin’ Up! creations and connect with fellow stampers. See what others have been creating, chat about stamping and feel free to invite your friends. It’s time for me to see what you’ve been making too!

 

So come and join me at

The Stampers Mess Sharing Space

and join in the sharing!

 

If clicking the button above doesn’t work, let me know and I’ll send you an email invitation.

My favourite Sale-a-bration products have to be the ones used in the card above. You’ll find the Banner Blast stamp set, the matching Banner Punch, the thread from the Sweet Sorbet Accessory Pack and al little glimpse of the Sweet Sorbet paper pack!

And here’s a peek at another project I’ve been making with the Sweet Sorbet papers and twine. This time using the See Ya Later stamp set:

 

 

If you have any questions about how Sale-a-bration works or about how you can get your free products just let me know.

Last Chance for the Holiday Catalogue

Holiday Catalogue ends this Saturday!

The good news is though, that Sale-a-bration starts tomorrow and so does the new Occasions Catalogue. That means you have  FIVE DAYS to order from any or all of the catalogues  AND you’ll earn a free product for every $90 you spend.

Make a cute punch art car using all Stampin’ Up! punches

 It started out as just a car but I couldn’t resist adding a cheeky little face!
When making the car I needed something big so made use of the Ovals Collection framelits. Only then did it dawn on me that I could adapt the idea of punch art to include other framelit shapes as well. The obvious choice was then to use the Dress Ups framelits to give shape to my creation’s bodies.
This little cutie took various forms until I finally decided that she should be a cat! 

In honour of the upcoming Australia Day holiday I just had to make my final project a punch art Koala card.

He didn’t start off as a baby, in fact the nappy was a complete afterthought and added after the card was finished. But with his big head and little limbs he just looked too cute and cuddly to be anything but a baby.
 

Bookings essential

*ALL CLASS ATTENDEES CAN GET A $10 DISCOUNT ON THE CLASS FEE BY PLACING AN ORDER OF $100 OR MORE ON THE DAY
