Hi there Creators,  Well I've been saying that my new glass mat would be ideal for scrapbooking on, so thought I'd better prove it 🤣  Just as a side note it's Sale-a-Bation at the moment (SAB for short) till end of Feb, and you can score yourself one of these amazing glass work mats for free when you join Stampin' Up!  The deets are: pick $235 of goodies, and only pay $169, then get the glass mat studio for free with it (see here: Join my team if you're interested or ask me). Anyway moving on to the scrapbooking, I can't say I'm an expert at this, it's definitely not my favourite thing, but, I volunteered to create a scrapbook of our Carol service as a gift for someone.  I have these bright ideas sometimes 🤣  Although actually I quite enjoyed making these sheets up in the video and I've had a few more ideas for the pictures with songs connected to the photos. The first page is this one: not made in video - and as you can see it's remarkably si

 Hi There Creators, No not half a card🤣  Today I'm showing off the fabulous Trusty Tools Bundle, which just so happens to have matching Sale-a-Bration papers that go with it.  Sale-a-Bration (SAB) is on until the end of Feb, for every $90 you purchase you get to pick for free from the SAB catalogue (check out the whole offering here: Sale-a-Bration items .  Woo hoo!  There's also another fabulous deal when you join Stampin' Up! you get to choose $235 of goodies plus you get the glass mat studio for free OR and extra $50 of goodies in your pack and you only pay $169 (absolute bargain, let me know if you're interested!) or check out this link: Join Now link.   Anyway moving on to my "half'er" cards.... The Trusty Toolbox SAB papers have a heap of tools on a couple of the sheets, which is great, and for a scrapbook sheet they're fine, but round the edges if you're a cardmaker you kind of end up with a heap of "dud" tools (half tools), so I

 Hi there Creators,  Wow we're 1/2 way through January already!! where did the time disappear to?  Ok I have 4 cards for you next month all using new goodies, bear in mind that we are in Sale-a-Bration time at the moment (SAB for short) and this means that for every $90 of goodies you order you get to pick a SAB product for FREE - wey hey😍 Check out all the available goodies here: SAB offering.   Or are you tempted by so much that it would be worth joining and getting a continuous discount?  If so there's an amazing deal for people to join: pay $169 and receive either $235 of goodies PLUS the Glass Mat Studio, OR pick another $50 of goodies for your kit, check it out here: Joining Deal Anyway the class dates are: Thursday 1st at 7pm in Laanecoorie, then Saturday 3rd in Maryborough at 10.30am and Tuesday 6th at 2.30pm (note the new date and time of the midweek, what used to be Wednesday, class) Here we go.....

Hi There Creators  Today I thought we'd check out a new Bundle - Stippled Roses (it's so pretty)  I love the smell of roses, and will often "stop to smell the roses" literally if I'm going past some 🤣 they have such a calming scent.   Did you know that Sale-a-Bration is now on?  If you are purchasing and you're order is near $90 (or multiples of $90) up it a bit, so that you qualify for FREE Sale-a-Bration item/s.  Or if you are popping in a big order (over $500) you'll get extra money to spend, having said that if your order is big, then why not think of joining? When you join you pay $169 and pick out $235 of goodies!  at the moment you'll get either the fabulous glass mat studio for free or an extra $50 of goodies in your order for free, then you get an ongoing discount, (and I would love to have you as part of my CreateAbles team 😁 So, in the video I show a few ways to colour the roses in and direct you to this blog post so you can see what I

The new mini and Sale-a-Bration catalogues have now started, so for every $90 of goodies you order you can pick for FREE from the Sale-a-Bration (SAB) offering, or why not think about joining Stampin' Up!?  you can get a bonus during SAB, so check it out here:  Join my Team .

Not sure you can tell from these photos but the writing is foiled in Pretty Peacock colour (one of my favourites).  Stampin' Up! do have a variety of different kits and I've always found the quality to be amazing, you can check out all the kits available here

 Hi There Creators Hope you've all had a lovely Christmas!  Happy New Year to you too. Today I thought we'd check out something that will be available to purchase on 4th January - 5 Days time EEK!  hopefully you all have your catalogues by now, if not let me know! What we're checking out today is the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid which is an embossing folder with dies, and it is SOOOO cool!, you can cut and emboss all at the same time.  There are 10 sayings/words, and I've been so enjoying playing with them. Here are the cards I made up after the video, I decided with these that less is more, so they make amazingly simple, but effective cards I think!  I've added a bit of Wink of Stella to some pieces just to add a bit of bling😍 My last card was inspired by some lined cards that a friend of mine gave me for Christmas, they were hand-painted by her daughter and she gave me a jar with it to write down what I'm thankful for, and pop them in the jar.  Here are some of

Hi there Creators,  yep it's that time of year again!  This time I decided to do a set of 12 cards that are kind of "all purpose Birthday cards" so you should have one for every month 🤣 There's a mix of card useful for all members of the family, here is the "conglomerate" photo:   The Details: Saturday 20th January 10.30am till 3.30pm.  Held at the Laanecoorie Hall, or order it as a postal class. The day will include a stamp set: Beach Day, the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch, a full pack of Iridescent Pastel Gems, 1/8 pack of one of the new Sale-a-Bration papers, twine, lunch and more..... plus your choice of a Sale-a-Bration product from the $90 list. The cost will be $125 for the day (unless you're one of my CreateAble team members in which case it's $50) If you'd like to come please book (and pay for) your place by 3rd January!  I will need to order on 4th January when the catalogue goes live to make sure I have everything ready for you all.  Let
