Great things are happening at Stampin' up!

Some exciting changes have been announced!
Going forward, Stampin' up! will be aligning our european catalogue with those in the US. Meaning, a larger annual catalogue containing all our core products (including those previously only available in the US), and two seasonal catalogues each year. These will also be larger than the mini catalogues we currently have, containing on trend and seasonal offerings.

This catalogue year will be a transition period for these changes to take place. Our 2012/2013 catalogue will launch 1st October as usual, however it will only run until the 30th June 2013. Ready for the release of the 2013/2014 catalogue.
We will see the first seasonal catalogue launch on the 1st September, and the Spring/Summer seasonal will arrive 1st February 2013.

I will be Starting a stampers 10 club on the 1st of September to run along side this transition period. The club will end just before the launch of the 2013/2014 catalogue, which you will receive on completion of the club, with no obligation to sign up again.
For more details of how the club works, please click on the hostess clubs tab.

Apothecary art anniversary

I haven't had much time for crafting lately, with the half term and the kids being poorly :( luckily we did manage to get a little break over the weekend.
Now that all thats over, we are starting to get back to normality. I've been planning my next class (date to be confirmed), for a little sneak peek at what i'm planning go check out my facebook page
Today i'd like to share with you this anniversary card i made using my favourite stamp set, apothecary art and the co ordinating framelit dies.
I've used very vanilla and confetti cream cardstock as well as very vanilla satin ribbon. I stamped the image in crumb cake and coloured with lucky limeade and wisteria wonder, which i also used to stamp the sentiment (from teeny tiny wishes). My trusty scoreboard with its diagonal plate created the embossed effect which i then added pearls to as its for a 30th anniversary :)
I finally took my edgelits out the packet to create the scallop edge.
If you would like to purchase any of these products, do get in touch and i can organise an order with you.
