Hi Everyone,
It has been a while since I have updated my Blog site.
Well it has just been over 12months since I have been a demonstrator with Stampin Up and I am still loving it.
Last weekend (12th-14th February) I went to my very first Stampin Up event - our Retreat with our little team of ladies to Nyah. Cheryl O'Bree opened up her home for us ladies (9 of us) and we had a great time of stamping, making cards, projects etc. I learnt so much from these ladies - lots of new ideas, techniques.
I will be able to put them into practice as I have my very 1st Workshop on 4th March. I am very excited about it. Hope it all goes ok.
I look forward to the next retreat with all the girls.
Well I promise that I will blog on a much more regular basis and I will endeavour to upload some of my projects that I have done of late as well.
Cheers
Sue

Hi Everyone,
Another busy day at work today.
I rec'd my Unconvention Swaps in the mail today. The 20 I received are absolutely fantastic. Some great ideas that I can take from them.
When I get a chance I will take some photo's and then upload them to my blog page for you all to have a look at.
Only a short blog tonight.
Need to do some scraping tonight.
Everytime the phone rings at my place - I am getting excited. My baby sister was due with her 3rd baby on Wednesday last week, she ended up in hospital on Saturday night - but false alarm. So the waiting is on now. Hopefully this one will be a little boy. I will keep you posted. If you can't tell I can't wait to be an Auntie again!!!

Cheers

Sue

Hi again,

It has been a while since I have added to my blog. Well I have been with Stampin Up now for nearly 4months and loving it. I am learning so many things (with the help from my Upline - Mel). I have particpated in Unconvention 2009 which was amazing. Eagerly awaiting the arrival of our Swaps from this unconvention. The plan is already to save for the real thing next year in May 2010 in Sydney - BRING IT ON!!!.
Mel came back from Convention with heaps of new ideas, techniques and I can't wait to learn some of them, that I can then share with you on my blog.
I have uploaded a copy of the card sketch that I entered on the Stampin Up Ozstyle site for the May Challenge. I hope you like it.

Cheers

Well the new Catalogue has arrived. It is pretty amazing, lots of new stamp sets, lots of gorgeous new Designer papers and heaps more.

Tuesday 9th June 2009

Well it has been a little while since I wrote on my blog.
Things have been happening within my family. My little sister gave birth to another little girl "Paige Elizabeth" on Friday 29th May 2009. She is such a little cutie.
I have just completed a Card Sketch Challenge and have loaded it onto the Stampin Up Oz Style site. Have another 5 challenges to complete before 12noon on Sunday.
I think I will do it, or come pretty close.
Hope you like the Card .
Cheers
Sue

Hi everyone,

Back to work today. Pretty good day at work, the phone didn't ring to much so got a lot done.

My upline MEL set me a challenge yesterday to complete something for the day.

My swaps were posted at lunch time today!!!
Eagerly awaiting my Swaps to arrive from Unconvention this week. Can't wait to see what everyone did.
Well this is not making a birthday card for my friend Karen so I think I should go and make a start and when hopefully I can post a copy of the card I did on my blog soon.
