Top Note Cards


Sorry I havn't blogged for a while, I am still loving the world of papercraft and trying to fit in some crafty and blogging time. Hope you like these recent birthday cards I made using my beloved Big Shot - it is such a nifty way to cut shapes and dry emboss, how did I live without it?


The first card uses Friends Never Fade and the Curly Cute greeting set and was a CASE of a card made by my SU friend Michelle Dyson. I just loved the colour combo of Rose Red, Pear Pizzazz, Perfect Plum and Peach Parfait - plus the sparkly bling of two way glue and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter complete with a pearl centre! The second card was a 1st Birthday card for a friends littley and uses the cute critters from Fox and Friends.

Until June 30 Stampin' Up! has an 'Extra Extra' promotion which offers an $110 in hostess dollars to spend when a workshop total reaches $450 - INCLUSIVE of the shipping and handling charges. That's on top of the usual exclusive Hostess stamp set of your choice.
My next Scrappin Sunday will be on Sunday 26 June 12-4.30pm, just $15 for use of all my tools, inks and scraps, plus afternoon tea, ideas galore and casual tuition. Book your spot at the table by just emailing me. 

So if we can reach $450 in purchases (incl postage & handling) we can divide up the $110 credit. For example if 5 people attend the workshop plus me thats 6 people spending $75 each and receiving an extra $22 each of free product of your choice. Even if you can't attend the workshop but would like $22 of your choice of free products let me know. This is a great deal guys so lets get together and make it work for us!

Be back sooner than later

Fundraising Raffle for Ethan

 One of the nicest things about being a demonstrator is the wonderful friendships that develop between us. We rally together to support many worthy causes, this time to help Ethan.

Ethan is the 6 year old son of Corina Beyer, a Riverina demonstrator. Ethan has Type 1 Diabetes, very difficult to manage in a young child. He has an insulin pump fitted, reducing the burden of multiple daily insulin injections. However, he still requires blood glucose monitoring every 2 hours round the clock, to prevent him from lapsing into a diabetic coma. Imagine the kind of stress this places on a family, if only from lack of unbroken sleep!
Ethan has recently trialled an automated continuous blood glucose monitoring system, which sounds an alarm if his levels fall outside the crucial range. However, the device costs $1250. And, the consumables cost more than $150 per week. Unfortunately, the Diabetes subsidy scheme does not cover this equipment. Your support will help to give Ethan a much more normal life, as well as his family!
 Tickets are $2 each, or 6 for $10


Your name and contact number will be recorded against ticket numbers, and you'll receive an email with your ticket numbers once your payment has been received. Prizes will be drawn using an online random number generator on TUESDAY 31st MAY.
