MY ONSTAGE SWAPS

Anyone who knows me, knows I leave thing to the last minute, OnStage was on Saturday, I actually started my swaps on Wednesday and I needed over 50, so I cheated and used designs that I have used before and blogged before, so I wont bore you and blog them again but one that I hadn't blogged before is this one.



Another quick and easy but effective card, my favourite colour from the 2019-2021 In Colour Collection is Pretty Peacock, I just love it.

The Daisy Lane Bundle is awesome and can be used in so many ways.

If you would like the instructions for this card please email me at sueallensimplycraft@bigpond.com.

Only today and tomorrow left to take advantage of the Online Extravaganza, just click the picture below to go to my online store.



Don't forget you can receive the Stamping Around the World Tutorial Bundle for free with any purchase from my online store.

Here's a sneak peek.

MOOOOORRY CHRISTMAS

Every month I take part in a swap group, themes vary but it's a great way to meet other demonstrators, get some great ideas.

Obviously the theme this month was your favourite Christmas Bundle, I hope the people I'm swapping with don't mind but I actually misread it and just did a Christmas card, I'll pop a note in to explain.



I just adore this Over the Moon stamp set and why shouldn't cows celebrate at Christmas, the little hat is fussy cut from the Night Before Christmas DSP, hope they like them. I used a sentiment out of the Christmas Gleaming stamp set 

Don't forget, day is the day to stock up on Card Stock and Inks at great reduced prices, but you only have until Friday to order. click on the picture to go to my 24 hour online store.

STILL RECOVERING

I am sure there's a few demonstrators like me still recovering from .....




I mentioned yesterday that apart from getting a copy of the up coming catalogue we get to play with new product and we get spoilt. So how do we get spolit?

Like this ...........................


At registration, everyone receives a bag, this year it was a backpack, the design always relates to a new product, this one is poppies



Inside each backpack was:
  • A new stamp set
  • Lanyard
  • Ribbons 
  • Pens
  • Trading Pins
 Take a look at the stamp on the place mat HINT


Throughout the day were several presentations and demonstrators, playing around with new product we had 4 makes and take, opportunities to win other products 




At the end of the day each table of eight get to share the products used in the make and take.

What we received from Stampin' Up is only part of it, most demonstrators make cards or gifts that they swap with other demonstrators but I'll save those for another day.

So how do you get to be part of these fantastic days?, easy, you become a demonstrator. As I have said before that doesn't mean you have to go out selling as long as you attain the required quarterly amount, you can be a hobby demonstrator which means you are your own customer and everything you buy, you receive a 20% discount.

No contracts, no pressure, if you would like more information drop me a note to sueallensimplycraft@bigpond.com.

Before I finish, between tomorrow 20th November, until Friday 22nd, Stampin' Up! is having a great Online Extravaganza.


This is a great opportunity to stock up on Cardstock and Ink Pads at great prices. you will find full details right here 




Something not to miss out on.

MISSED A DAYS OOOOPS

I made myself a promise recently to blog every day,  I missed yesterday but I had a great excuse.

I spent the day down in Sydney, what a long day, I left home just after 5.00am and got back after 7.00pm but it was worth every second.

I spent the day with about 600 other Stampin' Up! Demonstrators at the Sydney International Convention Centre at OnStage.

OnStage is a kind of convention, Stampin' Up! hold them twice a year in several parts of the world, it's where demonstrators come together for crafting, inspiration, friendship and lots of fun.

We are given a copy of the  upcoming catalogue, get to play with some of the new products and get very spoilt with gifts.

I'll fill you in more in my next blog but for the time being I'll give you a peek at the of the new Catalogue, cover only, we aren't allowed to show you the inside pages until the Catalogue goes live in January, 2020, but trust me the products are gorgeous.

If you can't wait until January, 2020, by joining Stampin' Up! you are able to pre-order all the products from 1st December, 2019 drop me a note to sueallensimplycraft@bigpond.com for more information.



Please subscribe to my Newsletter by adding your email address to the subscription box on the right-hand side and I will send you a free tutorial as a thank you.

Take care, talk soon
