Stampin' With Sam

Christmas Cards

2009-11-16T11:19:00.003Z

I held a Stampin' Up! Party last week and here are some of the cards I had as samples\make and takes.

I've used Ruby Red, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip and Kraft, along with Spotlight on Christmas and Season of Joy stamp sets, and the scallop square punch. The scallop square ones are really great for mass production. Don't forget you can place an order with me anytime!!!

I've Moved

Gosh I haven't posted for aaaages! Sorry 'bout that. The good news is that I have now moved to Edinburgh!! Yippety-deee, I am so excited. The other good news is that once I am properly settled, I will be able to do parties and workshops in the Edinburgh area, so get in touch if you are interested.

Meanwhile here are a couple of my latest cards using SU! Products, these featured in Crafts Beautiful Magazine last month.

Simply Cards and Papercraft

Ohhh very excited, I have a 4 page project published in SC&P Magazine this month using SU products. Hope you like it, can't publish pics just yet as it is still a current mag, but will do when the next one hits the shelves.

Wish Lists

I have decided to start a Wish List service, all I need is your wish list and the email of your "other half" . I can email them the wish list with prices and order goodies for you which can be delivered to an address other than your own so you don't peek!!!

Let me know if you are interested.

Well , I am still very excited about Stampin' Up! I went to a party with my son this morning and was telling all the school mums all about it. I was cheered by their responses, some had no experience of "crafting" but seemed interested, so I hope I can win them round with my workshops.

If you would like to order any Stampin' Up! products or just ask me any questions, please feel free to email me at sam.currie@btinternet.com I will be posting some samples on this blog in the next few days to whet your appetites!!!

A Couple of Cards
Blimey alert the media, I made 2 , yep 2 , cards today!!! I am on a roll. The other thing is that these cards are quite unlike the sort of cards I usually make. I am a kind of "in yer face bold brights" type of gal, whereas these are a mix of Basic Grey (shock horror) and the most fab DCWV Christmas Stack. These little 6x6 paper pads that you see around are such a boon for the card maker since the patterns are all scaled down nicely to fit on a card. The "Joy" card uses the SU Collage Alphabet set plus a die cut tree from the Cricut Christmas Cheer cartridge.

This card has been put through a mangle and punched (how cruel). Heaven knows why I crumpled it, I guess I was just getting into a grunge groove ha ha! BG Phoebe paper, Kraft cardstock from SU and SU stamps from the Be Happy and I think Itty Bittys sets. Not sure if these will all be available in the UK as the catalogue only goes live on Thursday. I love the Kraft Cardstock, I think I'll be using it for my Xmas cards, if I get around to making the darn things!

Wey hey! I couldn't wait any longer my Stampin' Up! forms arrived at SU in the UK today, I got an email from Paula who is running the whole caboodle in the UK. This means in the next 7-10 days I should be up and running!

Better get my skates on and show you some of their yummy stuff by making some cards eh? Back soon............................

Well Stampin' Up! officially launches in the UK this week on November 15th!!! It's been a long wait and I am itching to see all of their yummy products.

If you don't know of Stampin' Up! let me tell you allll about them. It is company launched in the States which sells the most beautiful rubber stamps and papercrafting products. These products are not available to buy in shops , they have to be purchased from "demonstrators". I am going to be a demonstrator - think of me as a crafting "Tupperware" lady.

Pop onto the Stampin' Up! website to see the yumminess of their product! As soon as the catalogue for the UK goes live you'll be able to buy from your local or most favourite demonstrator. We can plan workshops and parties in your own home or you can just browse the online catalogue and place an order with us.

In the coming weeks I hope to share lots of photos of cards made with their products so keep an eye out.

Meanwhile roll on the 15th!!!
