We had a fabulous night at Stamp Club last night, we made some adorable cards...check these out:
The owl was made using the Scallop Circle Punch, Round Tab Punch & Scallop Square Punch and we used the Thank You Kindly stamp set - pretty cute aye!
For the Birthday Card we used the the Bitty Birthday stamp set, coloured our images with blender pens, like in this video here.
Then we used the 1 3/4" Circle Punch and Sweet Treat Cups from the Stampin' Up! Summer Mini catalogue. We filled the cups with some sprinkles - there are so many cool things you can do with these cups...and they're only $7.75 for a pack of 12.
If you would like to find out more about joining a stamp club check out the Stamp Club Page...my clubs are open to anyone in New Zealand.
Each month we create a fantastic project & if you're outside of Auckland (or you can't make it on the night) your project kit will be sent to you with your order, and your tutorial is emailed to you.
I had a lovely workshop tonight with some wonderful local ladies.
We had fun playing with some of the Sale-A-Bration sets along with come other goodies like the fabulous Scallop Edge Punch, the Aqua Painters and the Double Rectangle Punch.
Here is one of the cards we made using the Happy Moments stamp set:

Do you remember my post about 5 from last year?
The Winter Olympics has got me re-focused and inspired - the athletes are truly inspirational in their dedication and commitment to their passion...let's face it you wouldn't be out there in the extremes if you didn't love what you were doing!
Which makes it seems all the more easier for me to achieve my goals in the cushy comfort of my home :o)
Each year Stampin' Up! holds a convention & demonstrators are awarded for their achievements.
Last year I attended convention as a newbie, having only been a Stampin' Up! demonstrator for a few months and I was completely inspired.
I am pleased to say that this year I have achieved a Sales Award, and with that milestone under my belt I am confidently moving forward to achieve more...just like an Olympian - I want to improve my PB :o)
It's amazing what you can accomplish in just 12 months!!
If you have a passion for paper crafts and would like to join me in achieving your dreams, then I invite you to come along to the next opportunity night which is being held on Monday, March 22nd.
Email me today to reserve your seat!
With the 2010 Winter Olympics now in full swing I was inspired to create a card to salute our team of Kiwis over there.
I got the black & white inspiration from the Olympian's uniforms, then the fern from the Organic Grace stamp set creating a backdrop for red, white & blue and the star (punched with the Small Star Punch)to represent our flag.

Well I was a lucky lady this morning..I woke up to find some beautiful flowers awaiting me:
We'd usually go out to breakfast on Valentine's Day - but seeing as Taigy is away this weekend, we're going to have Eggs Benedict for dinner when she gets home :o)
Wayno just got a bottle of wine, a card & a little hand made gift box (which was) full of kisses - and there's a card for Ravey & Taigy too - so we're all happy.
Here's the box of kisses:
And a video on how to make it :o)

Do you have a favourite? Let me know in the comments.
Powder Pals are just the handiest things when it comes to embossing.
I love that I can sprinkle freely knowing that my pals will catch the excess & when I'm done, all I need to do is remove the rubber bung and pour my powder back into it's container - easy peasy!!
The Powder Pals come in a set of 2 - one large enough to fit an A4 sheet & one small approx 15x20cm, they also come with a brush to help with the clean up.
One thing I love about buying from Stampin' Up! is that you know that the product is available - if you can see it in the catalogue, you can order it - so there's not confusion or long delays.
So go ahead and Order your set of Powder Pals (102197) for just $44.95 today!
