MARCH CARD CLASS

 30.3.21

Our first card class since October 2019!  Had a wonderful time with the ladies who were able to come - I think everyone was glad to be back.





Jeanette's project was a little treat box for Easter.  The ladies were very happy as they were able to make 5 boxes from a sheet of A4 cardstock.  Who wouldn't like to receive this?






For my projects, I found inspiration and a tutorial from the very talented Gail Ellis from Blue Rose Paper Treasures.  Its called the split negative technique and so effective.  Basically you stamp the same image both on coloured cardstock and white (the stamparatus is perfect for this as they have to be in the exact same place on the cardstock).   I stamped in Night of Navy on the white, and heat embossed in white on the Night of Navy.  The ladies also had a choice of using the retiring Pretty Peacock instead of the Navy. Then you cut wherever you like (I cut at 1 1/2 inches) on both pieces and then you line them up and like magic you have a perfect whole image!

The beauty of this technique is you get two cards  - bonus!



We used the same technique for the second cards,  but with different stamps for a completely different look

If you would like to come along to class, held once a month , please contact me - details at top of blog - we would love to see you,

Thanks for visiting.

Nanette.

Catalogue has gone live today!

Good afternoon!  Just wanted to stop by and let you know that the 2020-2021 catalogue is here and you can order from it TODAY!!  There are a few things I wanted to let you know, - sorry about the long post -  so lets begin......




Stampin' Up! have updated their online shop and it is SO much better!  Here's what to expect when you visit  -


  • The store is designed to work seamlessly on desktops, tablets and mobile phones
  • New and improved store navigation provides an updated and enhanced shopping experience.
  • The site utilises new. larger imagery to better showcase our products and allow up close details to be seen.
  • New sorting options and filters provide a more intuitive shopping experience, allowing you to more easily find what you are looking for. The store's organisation and terminology are also more intuitive.
  • The site utilises inventory status information to show you what items will be retiring soon, have low inventory or are backordered, so you can make informed purchasing decisions.
  • You can mark your favourite items for later reference and you can create and share personalised wish lists.
  • A new Quick Shop feature makes it easy to add items to your basket.  The checkout process has also been simplified.
When you go to shop, please select me as your demonstrator by clicking the top of the page "Find Demonstrator" and then search by my NAME.  Alternatively, at checkout it will ask you who you want to shop with and once again, search by my name.  If your order is less than $250 please use the hostess code (found on the right side of the blog) when prompted, to earn a gift from me. If more than $250- you will automatically earn rewards - and also a small thank you gift from me. 

I tried it today and the site seemed  easy to follow, but please contact me if you have any problems  - and as always I am happy to order for you - just email or call me with your order.

Also - just for THIS MONTH ONLY there is a fabulous joining special!  There is absolutely no obligation to sell - many people (including me!) joined as a hobby demonstrator.  You can leave without penalty at any time.   

Some of the advantages of joining include:

  • Pay $165 and you can choose $235 worth of product - whatever you choose - and free delivery
  • THIS month, you can also add to your starter kit ANY bundle - for FREE!!  Our most expensive bundle is $105 so what an ideal opportunity to get it for free if you like this one! There are many other lovely bundles to choose from too and the offer includes a choice of either stamps/dies or stamps/punch.
  • View and purchase new products ahead of the general public
  • Newsletters and continual support from the Australian Head Office. 
  • Opportunities to attend demonstrator only events, which are a lot of fun!
I would LOVE to have you join my team "The CraftiNettes" - please contact me if you have any questions.  Remember the free bundle offer is only till 30th June 2020. 

Phew, think that is all! Thank you for getting to the end - contact me if you would like a hard copy catalogue, or click on the catalogue picture to download a digital copy. 

I look forward to hearing from you soon - let me know what you think about the catalogue and also the new online store. 

Thank you for visiting - and happy creating!
