Stampin' Up training in Telford UK

Hello all, firstly I am sorry I haven't been around here for awhile but when I get busy my poor blog is the first to go! It is such a busy time for all Stampin' Up demonstrators at this time of year, firstly I was away to Telford last weekend with over 300 other demonstrators for a training day where we got to play with all the lovely new products and see inspiring displays. It was just wonderful.

We also like to swap ideas with each other at these events and I managed to make 50 of my swaps and received fantastic ideas in return. The first photo is my swap which was well received, I had masked off a circle in the centre and then stamped various flowers and leaves in a random way. I then removed the mask and stamped the centre, I love this sentiment, "do more of what makes you happy" totally agree!! Then I mounted this on black card which I thought really set it off then added some sequins and dazzling diamonds glitter for some sparkle. (it's more sparkly in real life)

The photos below are the swaps I received in return. Fabulous, aren't they!? Lots of lovely ideas for me to use in my classes.

The other reason I've been so busy is that Stampin' Up's new catalogue goes live next week! I've been having some launch parties at my home to let my customers see some of the lovely new products they will soon be able to get their hands on and of course get their shiny new catalogues. I've also been posting out catalogues to existing customers. If you are not currently a customer of mine but would like to be and would like a paper copy of the catalogue then please email me for details. Remember I send out a handmade thank you card for every order I receive. Come back soon for some projects I've made using new products.
