Mini Catalogue Class

On Wednesday I held my monthly class at St Johns Church Hall in Ipswich.  This months theme was 'Mini Catalogue'. The ladies created four projects and got to have a play with lots of the new products in the catalogue.

The first project used the fabulous 'Spice Cake' papers.  The catalogue (or my photo!) really doesn't show how gorgeous these papers are!  I chose the 'masculine' side of the papers but on the reverse there are some very pretty 'Pool Party' patterns.

The second card uses the stunning 'Charming' stamp set which includes a gorgeous background stamp.  The main floral image was coloured using the Stampin' Up! markers.

I always include a 3D item in my class and this month it was this cute gift pouch.  The image is from the new 'Perfect Postage' set.  The original image has the rabbit holding a balloon but I have added a heart making it suitable as a Valentines gift.  The paper is from the 'Pocket Full of Poises' range.

The ladies had a choice of design for the final card.  They could make a Valentine or Friend card using the 'You are Loved' stamp set.  This set is so versatile and could be used for much more than just Valentines.

If you wold like to join us at the next class on Wednesday 29th February, you can book online using the link in the side bar.  The class cost £10 and are relaxed and friendly.  For more information click HERE or you can contact me at creativecraft@btinternet.com.

Is it Time for a Creative Career??

Have you considered becoming a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator but thought that you haven’t got enough time or that you don’t know enough ‘crafty’ people?  Maybe you are think you need to run workshops or classes to reach high sales.  Well that’s not true, if like me you have a huge wish list and want to get a discount on Stampin’ Up! product or maybe you would like to earn extra income after an expensive Christmas, then this could be perfect for you.

There are many types of demonstrators who join Stampin’ Up! for different reasons.  My team of demo's are made up of:

• DISCOUNT DEMONSTRATOR:  Likes to buy stamps for personal use at a discount and occasionally sells to friends and family.  
• HOBBY DEMONSTRATOR:  Loves holding workshops and classes to earn extra money.  Their work is tailored around home life and other commitments.
•   FULL TIME MUM – PART TIME DEMONSTRATOR: Stay’s at home with the children during the day and works a few nights a month. 
• CAREER DEMONSTRATOR:  Chooses Stampin’ Up! as a viable business with a fantastic career potential.  Attends training events and works with other demonstrators to build a successful business.

You don’t need to choose which type of demonstrator you will be or make any long terms commitments.  If you purchase the starter kit for £119 you will never have anything to pay back and there are no penalties for not purchasing any more products.  The Starter Kit (which you can customise) contains £250 worth of products so you are already getting £130 worth of products for FREE but if you join my team before 31st March you also get to choose an extra stamp set for FREE!! (worth up to £44.95) as well as a welcome bag of essential goodies from me!

Inspire, Create and Share with Stampin’ Up!

Ornate Notepad

I hope you are all having a lovely weekend.  I have been busy tidying and organising my craft room and thought I would share this project from my desk.  This was inspired by a swap I received from my lovely friend and team mate Maria.  I loved this so much that I made another for my craft room using the gorgeous Mocha Morning papers.

This angel shows  the acrylic stand more clearly.  It easily holds a post it note pad and has enough room for a pen which I have decorated in matching paper.

I covered the Post it pad  with Crumb Cake cardstock and decorated using the Notably Ornate stamp set.  The sentiment was then punched out and finished with a single Rhinestone.

I will back soon to share some NEW Mini Catalogue Projects xx
