Posted for You!

Today I had fun playing around with the ‘Posted for You’ stamp set and the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper.  The ‘Posted for You’ set can be paired with the rectangular ‘Postage Stamp’ punch to make lots of interesting postage/letter like designs (click on the Links to see products in my shop).

I absolutely looooved the Peony Garden DSP which couples the colours Granite Grey, Petal Pink and Whisper White, the colours and designs are so pretty!

I’m Back!!!

As you can see, it’s been some time since I’ve posted on this blog - 6 years and 7 months!! 

In that time I went back to do further study in my profession (massage) so that I could go back to work.  It was a fairly busy time studying and then starting my business ‘Synergy Massage Therapy’ so I didn’t get a lot of spare time. 

With the arrival of Covid 19 many businesses, including my own have had to shut down due to Stage 4 restrictions and in Melbourne this has dragged on and on, am I right Melbournians?

Anyway, this has obviously led to having a lot more time on my hands and I felt that it was time that I started enjoying having a hobby again rather than focussing only on work, family and house!  Speaking of which my three kids are now 15, 12 and 10 years and I have two other babies, Scout our 4 year old Beaglier and Harley, our new little Toy Poodle.

So here I am getting back in to my much loved hobby, with the much loved Stampin’ Up! Products.  It was making by husband’s birthday card that helped me to remember just how much I love creating.



Soon I was back on the Stampin’ Up! Website needing some more consumables (I’ve always loved the Snail - now called Stampin’ Seal  (click picture to view in the shop).  And of course as soon as I started looking, there was definitely more that I ‘needed’ 😄😄😄

With my list of products building, it became a better option to join up as a demonstrator due to the amazing discounts, which brings me to this point!  

I’m back as a demonstrator and can’t wait to share with you all some fun creating and stamping ideas and of course wonderful products.

Stampin’ Up! For me was never just about creating by myself but joining with others and making friends both online and in person, sharing ideas, chatting and creating together.  

Stampin’ Up! provides great opportunities to enjoy time chatting and crafting with friends, either by hosting a demo, creating a craft group, attending classes, or even joining up yourself as a demonstrator into a team of amazing people who love doing what you love.   

So please please feel free to join me in having some fun sharing our love of creating.  I look forward to crafting with you!
