Last week Bronwyn Eastley launched a new Stampin’ Up! Challenge Site – CASE-ing the Catty – aka CTC Challenges. What a fantastic idea! We all get so much inspiration from the gorgeous samples and ideas in the Stampin’ Up! Annual catalogue that doing so as part of a challenge is a natural progression! Each week the challenge …

It’s hard to think Convention was more than 6 weeks ago – it only seems like the other day I was in Melbourne! I had a great time – catching up with so many demonstrator friends, seeing and trying out new products, getting some excellent business training and tips, dancing the night away to ABBA …

As I’ve mentioned before, both our children are fantastic singers. Beth, 21, is a soprano and Ross, 19, is a bass/baritone. (I know I am biased – but they really are good!) This time last year we were celebrating with Beth on the conclusion of a wonderfully successful season in Phantom of the Opera with the Wellington …

One of the great things about being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is being part of a wider team and getting to participate in swaps with fellow demonstrators. I wanted to share the projects I created for two swaps I have “recently” participated in – swaps at the South Pacific Stampin’ Up! Convention and a team …

It’s here – the Retired List ! If you’re new to Stampin’ Up!, you’re probably asking yourself…”what’s a retired list?” Good question! A retired list contains items that are being discontinued to make room for all the new products in the 2014-2015 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.

I’m really excited to share a little info on how we incorporated some digital items into the 21st celebrations. My Digital Studio (MDS) is Stampin’ Up!’s digital Design software – and I love it.
