Stamp-a-stacks a sell out!

Last weekend I held the second ever of my stamp-a-stack classes... and to my delight, they were fully booked in just 3 hours of announcing them being on! A big THANKS to everyone for such great support. We really do have fun with these classes...

here's what we made this time round.

Set 1 featured Circle Circus teamed up with your favourite greeting from Life Definitions or Sincere Salutations, this set covered both males and females being in Sahara Sand,

Chocolate Chip, & Brocade Blue.

Set 2 of course was based around my Stamp Set of the Month

Pocket Silhouettes.

Sale price during January 2010 purchased only

through me is $28!

saving over 15%

This set looked stunning combining Kraft with

4 of the In-colour range.

(Inspiration for this set came from Marelle Taylor).

Keep an eye out for my next Stamp-a-Stacks coming in March.

Love to have you join us!

Stamp-a-stack in January!

January Stamp-a-Stack Class!

Come along and make 8 cards with matching envelopes!

There will be 2 different distinct card designs. Each design will be shown in 4 variations, so they will look different, but be created with the same card stock, just varying the colours or embellishments. By doing this you will have the opportunity to play with more tools etc and pick up different tricks, and it makes it a little more interesting to take home, than 4 identical cards. I will show you all 4 variations of each of the 2 designs, then it's up to you if you would like to chooses 1 or 2 of your favourites to mass produce or try out all 4.

Cost is $15 if you bring your own SNAIL adhesive,
or $20 if you prefer to use my SNAIL.

This includes an embellishment pack (ribbon, brads, etc)
and 8 envelopes.

All card stock and any DS paper will be pre-cut for you
to make creating quicker.

Stamp-a-stacks a hit!

Saturday and today I held my first 2 stamp-a-stack classes, and from the feedback received... they were a real hit! Each stamp-a-stacker took home with them 8 completed cards with matching envelopes ready for that next special occasion.

Look out for more stamp-a-stacks coming in 2010.

Here's what the ladies who attended got to make...

Set 1 featured the new DS Papers from the Summer Mini - Kaleidoscope,

teemed up with Eastern Blooms.

I love the bright fresh summer feeling about these pretty papers.

Set 2 featured none other than my STAMP SET OF THE MONTH

Wild About You!

Sale price during December 2009 purchased only through me is $39!

Saving over 15%.

I love when the creative juices flow at my classes, and always enjoy seeing variations of other ways you can put together a card, and on this occasion at Sat's class I had to take a quick photo of the card Debbie created below. (sorry the pic is not so good this was taken on my camera phone)... isn't it just so cute!!!!!

Each set of 4 are created from the same pre-cut sizes of materials, colours varying, and were shown put together 4 different ways. The option was there to mass produce your favourite, or create all 4 of each card, getting to use lots of different tools and trying out several different techniques.

Lets Start Stamping Stacks!

Would you like to get 2010 off to a great start

with a collection of cards ready for that first occasion you need one?

Well you might like to join me for my

December Stamp-a-Stack Class!

I hear some say "Stamp-a-Stack, what's that?"

A Stamp-a-Stack class is one that you would take a

couple of card designs,

mass produce each one a few times...

and go home with a 'Stack' of cards!

I have had many requests for Stamp-a-Stack classes and plan on running regular classes throughout 2010. My December Class will be a great taste test of what's to come...

Come along and make 8 cards with matching envelopes!

There will be 2 different distinct card designs. Each design will be shown in 4 variations, so they will look different, but be created with the same card stock, just varying the colours or embellishments. By doing this you will have the opportunity to play with more tools etc and pick up different tricks, and it makes it a little more interesting to take home, than 4 identical cards. I will show you all 4 variations of each of the 2 designs, then it's up to you if you would like to chooses 1 or 2 of your favourites to mass produce or try out all 4.

Cost is $15 if you bring your own SNAIL adhesive,

or $20 if you prefer to use my SNAIL.

This includes an embellishment pack (ribbon, brads, etc)

Memories from a fab day on the 1st August!

On the 1st of August I rolled up at Ursula's new craft haven namely'Angel Ave', in Rochedale South, armed with lots of fun crafting gear for a great day... and what a day it was!

I had a group of 8 join me for my Christmas Blitz Class from 12:30-4pm, each making 12 Christmas cards (3 designs - 4 of each)... We used the Snow Swirled set which was my stamp set featured in July and teamed it up with the gorgeous new DS Papers in the mini catalogue called Ski Slope. Everyone had a great time, and now each have started off their Christmas card stash for this Christmas! Congratulations to Debbie Mc & Shelley T on each winning a funky red storage holder for all their Chrissy cards.

Why stop there though?.. Straight out of Christmas Blitz mode... and into Spring mini catalogue launch mode!!!!!! From 4-6pm we celebrated the launch of the new mini catalogue. This was a joint celebration with Ursula and her lovely guests also. We had some fabulous specials that were only available on the day, and everyone made a cute card featuring little handbags made from punches with the new DS papers 'Walk in the Park' and the new stamp set 'Oval All'... and... my favourite part... the new Scallop Oval punch! One of the handbags even had a cute flower designer brad,

also new in the Spring Mini.

This card would look great in any of the fabulous DS Papers Stampin' Up! has to offer... here it is in another of the papers in the mini, the Parisian Breeze Specialty Designer Series Paper.

Congratulations to Robyn B, one of Ursula's guests, on winning a fabulous Walk in the Park prize pack up for grabs on the day,

and to Carla M and Kristy J

for being the lucky door prize winners.

After both events you would think us girls would just need to put our feet up! Well what better way to do that than have a surprise craft room warming party!!!!!!! Ursula's new craft room is absolutely fabulous, and the floors, walls etc had only been finished days before. Hours of love and devotion has gone into the makings of "Angel Ave" by Ursula, her husband Aaron, and their two boys. I know how excited I was about their new haven, and the many classes we will be able to hold there doing what we love best...

stampin' and being with our friends,

so I can only imagine Ursula & Aaron's joy.

Just after taking some pickies of Ursula in her funky new room to end the day off (or so she thought), in rolled some Paper Angel friends Liz, Kathy, and Kate, with pizza, chocolate treats, and bubbly. Surprise Ursula!!!! Happy Craft Room Warming! Being a part of our group is a wonderful thing, not only do we keep inspiring each other in so many ways, we have made some great friends, so a girls night in with friends was the best way to end what was

an absolutely fantastic day!

Thank you to all who joined us on the 1st August...

it was certainly a day I will remember for a long time to come xo

I'll set the scene 1st... This is the room all set up and ready to go...

Macleay workshops ~ Foldout Scrapbook Page Card!

For our Friday workshops here on Macleay,

we made the great Foldout Scrapbook Page Card!

Having 8 attend I chose to make this in two different colour combinations and give each person the choice in which colour they would prefer.

Here is Marg & Cherryl at my day-time class with the two different colours.

They turned out absolutely fabulous... and everyone went home smiling!

I love these foldout scrapbook cards, they will make great gifts for friends and family as you can add special photos to share and remember, but be giving a card at the same time. Really a novel idea. Liz even mentioned making them at Christmas time and sending them to special family and friends with photos of the kids etc. Bit different to the usual Chrissy card... What a great idea!

Barb was at my night-time workshop and

chose to make her page for her sister.

I think I will make my next one using

my favourite DS papers 'Sweet Always'

and it's co-ordinating colours!

The Card Barn Class!

Here is the cutest little project I have seen in a while... The Card Barn!

This little barn was shown to us at our last Paper Angels meeting by one of our Paper Angels Bec. She found this project originally designed by Linda Heller and has created a little class with it. Kindly sharing the instructions with other Paper Angel Demonstrators so we can share the class with our customers!
