Welcome to December

Hi Everyone

Welcome to December!!  Gosh how quick has this year gone by?  Seems like only yesterday we were saying Happy 2018! I would like to take this opportunity and thank you all for a wonderful year.  Many of you know I faced some major health issues during the year, and this has been the reason for my extended absense from my blog.  I took time out to get a good rest and clear my thoughts. Thankfully I am still here and recovering well.  Your continued support has helped me stay positive and achieve some amazing things this year and for that I am truly thankful :)

CHRISTMAS ORDER CUT OFF 

Placing orders in December can be a little slower than normal given the increase of parcels for the Christmas period.  To ensure you get your orders before Christmas, place your order before December 10th; orders placed after this date are not likely to arrive before Christmas.  Don't forget December is the last month for the Holiday catalogue too.  Alot of these products will not be carrying over to future catalogues so make sure you fill your wishlist before Santa arrives.

2019 OCCASIONS and SALE-A-BRATION CATALOGUES are coming soon!!!

Occasions catalogue starts 3rd Jan 2019 through 31st May 2019Sale-A-Bration starts 3rd Jan 2019 through 31st March 2019

Be prepared for some of the most gorgeous products ever to be released.  This catalogue is amazing and there is something for everyone, from the beginner stamper to casual or more avid stampers.  

What is Sale-a-Bration?  To put it quite simply - it's FREE PRODUCTS!! Yes, you heard right!!  For every $90 you spend in any current catalogue or in the Clearance Rack you get to choose a FREE product from the Sale-A-Bration brochure. Spend $90 and choose 1 level one item - spend $180 and choose 2 items and so on.  There is also a second level of earnings too - spend $180 and either choose 2 level one products OR 1 level two product.

THIS MONTH’S SPECIAL OFFERS - YEAR-END CLOSEOUT SALE - starts this Wednesday

On 5 December, the Year-End Closeout will officially begin! During this promotion, you will be able to save on a selection of retiring and surplus items—while supplies last. Make sure to place their orders sooner rather than later, because supplies are limited and the Year-End Closeout ends on 2 January. After that, your favourite retiring items may be gone for good!

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Special Guest Nadine Weiner

Hi Everyone 

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog hop with special guest Nadine Weiner.  Nadine is ranked number 11 in the world....that's an awesome achievement...Congrats Nadine!! You can see Nadine's creations at her blog Nadines Stampin Club.

You may be joining our hop here with me, Leisa Pedersen or you may have come from the person previous to me.  Where ever you started, don't miss a single post! There are so many talented demonstrators hopping with us toay.

As Nadine is our special guest, our theme is to CASE (copy and selectively edit) any project she has created.

This is Nadine's card I chose to CASE:

As always with CASEing, we change things around a bit.  Here is my take on Nadine's card:

I've used some of the great new products from the 

Share What You Love Suite just released in an exclusive customer preorder until May 31st and teamed these with a retiring stamp set.

  I used the Love What You Do Stamp Set (available in the Share What You Love bundles, more about this below) for the colour and floral images and the sentiments are from A Mother's Flair, which is retiring at the end of May. I carried the design to the inside of the card also.

I often make cards and donate to my son's school for their fundraising stalls and Mother's Day is just around the corner.  So I made 100 of this card in a range of colours and donated them to the school.

As mentioned, Stampin' Up!® have released a range of bundles in the Share What You Love Suite.  You can read more about them here in a post I did last week.  These bundles can also be added to your starter kit....so if you have been thinking of joining Stampin' Up!® for a while and not sure where to start, this is a perfect solution for you.  I'd love to welcome you to my team.  Join with me today

If you live in Australia, you can shop with me anytime HERE. Use my monthly VIP code EVZGNA97 at checkout to receive a little thankyou gift from me.

I hope you have enjoyed our hop so far.  There are many amazing ideas to draw inspiration from so be sure to continue your journey by following the list below to see who's up next!!

Today Blooms - Crazy Crafters Project Highlights

Hi Everyone

Welcome to another week of Crazy Crafters Project Highlights.

This week I tried something a bit different.....I've gone a bit leafy.  I don't really know how I feel about this card or the colours for that matter but others like it so....

I decided on Perfect Plum cardstock for my base and layered with Whisper White Thick.  I then copied the same just smaller to create the inner panel.  The floral image and leaves are from the Flirty Flowers stamp set and the sentiment from Perennial Birthday stamp set. I stamped the leaves in Old Olive ink, stamping off once to achieve the lighter shade. The flower is stamped in Perfect Plum.
To finish off I added some ribbon in Old Olive .

Don't forget Sale-A-Bration is in full swing.
