A wonderful start to the week with lots of news and offers from Stampin’ Up!

Good morning and phew, what a weekend.  The temperatures soared up, over 40 degrees  inland and a 35-37 degrees on the coast.  We made it to the beach on Saturday and enjoyed coffees, ice creams, sandwiches and milkshakes with all the family, including the boys mum.  Dogs came along too and it was lovely in the breeze.  Unfortunately yesterday wasn’t quite the same.  It was so hot and my feet swelled up so much it was painful to walk.  I ended up spending the day in the air conditioning and with my feet up, phew. 

Today we have a lovely cool breeze so hopefully, things will be easier.  

Did you join in the fun on Saturday at the Stampin’ Up! world Card Making Day?  If you didn’t but you would like to watch the reply, here is a link   https://events.stampinup.com/worldcardmakingday/video

Here are another couple of cards made using the Grassy Grove stamp set and the Stampin’ Write pens.

No sentiments on them as yet as they are all ready for when I need them.  Do you make cards and leave sentiments off or are they always completely finished?

On Tuesday, for one day only Stampin’ Up! are offering FREE shipping.  If you only want a few bits and bobs, let me know and I shall add them to my order.  Not everyone has £60 worth of crafting items that they need so I will be very happy to place an order at 8pm with lots of bits and pieces for everyone.

Also on Tuesday, Stampin’ Up! Have a brand new kit on offer

• The kit includes
• One 8" x 10" (20.3 x 25.4 cm) monthly planner with space to record birthdays each month as well as a pocket sleeve to hold birthday cards. 
• 12 full-size birthday cards, 6 of 2 designs, and 12 coordinating envelopes.
• Glue Dots, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Adhesive-Backed Embellishments, and Tear & Tape Adhesive
• Die-cut florals and pieces ready for you to use—no prep work required! 
• Sticker sentiments and die-cut labels in Dutch, English, French, and German
• Coordinating colours: Basic Black, Evening Evergreen, Petal Pink, Sahara Sand, and Soft Succulent
• It is priced at £24 and with the offer of FREE postage, an ideal time to order one.  I think that it would make an ideal Christmas present too

As if that wasn’t enough to start off the brand new month and the new Stampin’ Up! year

Lots for us to talk about at our first October in person get together this Friday with our Christmas Card and Chatter Night in The Craft Room.

It would be wonderful if you could join us for a few hours of Christmas card/project making.  Not sure where the Craft Room is?  Just get in touch (details are below) and I will send you address details of the venue.

As requested by some of my lovely friends,  I shall be having a few on line card making sessions in the evenings at 6.30pm.  I shall let everyone know what craft supplies are needed so that you can craft along with me.  

Should you place an order with me via the online store, pop in the Gift Code under the area it asks for a host code.
