Convention Cupcake Swap

Here are some of my swaps for Convention.  You make multiples of a card front or other item and then swap with other demonstrators.  So if you make 20 items, you'll get 20 different items back.  It's a fun way to start Convention and meet other demonstrators.

As our catalogue is retiring at the end of June, I tried to use colours and items that I thought would still be available in the next catalogue.

Yup...it's another project using Crystal Effects.

I found these magnets at Officeworks.  They have a resin bubble on them which I prised off and covered with a Gumball Green Rectangle.

The cupcakes are made using the Cupcake Builder Punch and the flower is from the Build-a-Cupcake stamp set.

Ready to swap!

Thanks for stopping by!

15% off This and That till the end of May

I have returned from Convention thoroughly inspired.  It's a fantastic event where we are treated so well by Stampin' Up!  It's a fabulous company to work for.


One of the products featured was the This and That line of products.

 Here is mine when I unpacked it a few weeks ago...

What is This and That?  It's sort of like a junk drawer - all those snippets of news, business cards, jottings, pics that are lying around your desk or on a noticeboard can be rounded up and stuck in.  Use is to document your year, take it on a trip.

I had already decided that mine was going to be a book to showcase my SU! colours and products for classes and demonstrations, but I was inspired to work on the cover when I returned from Convention.

It was great fun to keep layering and layering until I got to this...

 

Until May 31st, Stampin' Up! is offering the Epic This and That bundle for 15% off!

 

So what's in it?

 

 

All this for $55.88 - 15% off the retail value!

 

What a fantastic gift for someone. 

 

This offer is only till the end of the month!  The it will be available in the new catalogue starting in July....but without the discount.  To order go to my business website and click on the Shop Now button or email me at wheatonanna@hotmail.com

 

Thanks for stopping by!

Another Convention Gift

Have you taken a look at Stampin' Up!s range of fabrics?  The range of fabrics is beautiful and co-ordinates with our colours and card stock.  Have a look on page 170 and 171 of our catalogue. 

 

I found this key fob on Pinterest (which led me to this site) and thought it a nifty gift!   These were easy to make - I am a basic sewer - nothing fancy is my style, but I managed to whip these up fairly quickly and without anyone holding my hand (which would make sewing really awkward anyway!)

 

 

Stampin' Up!s fabric has just been retired in the U.S. so it may well retire here when we get our retirement list next month....so if you would like to order some you might like to get in quick!  Email me at wheatonanna@hotmail.com or you might like to visit my online store.

A Parliament of Owls

By the time you read this post I will have collected my bag and started my Convention experience.  We are in for a real treat from Thursday to Saturday as demonstrators from Australia and New Zealand converge on the Brisbane Convention Centre for three days of inspiration.

Here is a gift I have made for my team members who are attending and some other special people.

 

I saw this beautiful bag tag on Jo Dumbleton's blog.  I love the use of Crystal Effects on anything.  These were so much fun to make.

 

I couldn't quite get the split ring onto the creation as to pull it apart wide enough meant that the ring itself became bent, so I settled for ribbon to tie the owl to the ring.  I thought the effect was nice.

Jo's lovely creation also had a piece of vellum on the back, run through the printer.

And here is the whole parliament of owls.

I hope the recipients like their little gifts.

Card:  Lucky Limeade (leaves), Real Red (heart), Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie (beak), Soft Suede and Whisper White (owl body and eyes), Summer Smooches DSP, Vellum
Tools:  Owl Builder Punch, Fancy Flower Punch, Bird Builder Punch, Crop-a-Dile
Accessories:  3.3 mm Taffeta Ribbon, Crystal Effects

Don't forget that if you would like to join my team there is a fantastic joining offer on at the moment - Join for $169 and choose $295 worth of any Stampin' Up! products!  This offer will last until May 30th.  Please email me at wheatonanna@hotmail.com if you are interested!


Thanks for stopping by!
