Happy 2008!!!

Posted on January 2, 2008January 2, 2008 by Josee

Can you believe it’s 2008? I hope you had a lovely New Year’s! My family and I enjoyed the amazing Ottawa Fireworks display downtown to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the choice of Ottawa as the Capital of Canada. I think it was the BEST fireworks display we’ve ever seen. Not sure it this will work, but, if you want to see it…click HERE to see a You Tube video of it. It’s worth checking out!  

The fireworks were just before 7pm and then drove over to the Centrepointe skating rink for skating and hot chocolate. It was a really nice evening. We decided on New Year’s day that we hadn’t had enough turkey yet…so, we made another. Yum, yum, yum!!! I think we’ll do a New Year’s Turkey ever year!

I’d love to hear what you did! Leave me a comment and let me know what fun you had on New Year’s!

I asked my oldest daughter to choose a couple of cards to feature on my blog today and these were her top picks. These 2 cards were received in my latest card swap with members of my downline. We swapped cards using stamps out of the Spring-Summer Collection Preview Catalogue. The stamp set, HAPPY HEART DAY, is part of the Valentine’s Day Bundle Promotion.

 

 

This first card was made by Linda Willman.

I love how she used a part circle to stamp the elephant on.

Recipe: 
Stamp Set: Happy Heart Day
CS: Basic Gray, Going Gray, Naturals White, Purely Pomegranate, Pretty in Pink
Ink: Basic Black, Assorted inks used to colour images
Accessories: Basic Gray Tafetta Ribbon, uni-ball Signo Gel Pen, Paper Piercing template and tool

 

 The second card was created by Jacynthe Gauthier.

 It’s hard to see from the scan, but, the clear embossed flowers on this card are a really lovely touch! 

 

Recipe: 
Stamp Set: C’est la fete des coeurs (French-Happy Heart Day)
CS: Elegant Eggplant, Regal Rose, River Rock and Whisper White
Ink: Versamark, Basic Black
Accessories: Clear Embossing Powder, Ribbon, Watercolor Crayons

  Thanks ladies for your wonderful cards!!!

We’re allowed to start ordering out of the new catalogue starting today at 2pm and this special bundle is on my "to buy" list. I’ll let you know some of my other favourites tomorrow when I can actually link to the catalogue. If you’re reading this past 2pm EST, you should be able to view the new catalogue by clicking HERE! 

 

Happy New Year!!! Love Josee

New Canadian Prices + the New Catalogue is HERE

Posted on December 30, 2007January 1, 2008 by Josee

I have them!!!! The catalogues are here and it’s absolutely wonderful!!!! the stamp sets, the accessorries, the samples…oh my….I can hardly contain myself! 

Stampin’ Up! had originally brought the prices down from the previous catalogue but, have also just announced that they will bring them down another 7%!!!! Wooohooo! How awesome! Because they weren’t able to adjust the prices in time for printing, they have supplied us with a Adjusted Canadian Pricing Chart. 

(The hostess benefits have also slightly changed to make the first category $200-299.99)

If you’re wanting a catalogue, just contact me! They are $8 if you pick them up.

If you are a current Stamp Club Member or plan to join a club in January…you get your catalogue for FREE. You can also pick it up at my OPEN HOUSE!

No card to share today…so I thought I’d share some fun photo’s of Christmas 2006

vs. Christmas 2007! 

The snow was absolutely magical this year!!!

Have a HAPPY STAMPING DAY! Josee

Punch Pals by Eraina

Posted on December 29, 2007 by Josee

This lovely card that I received from one of my customers, Eraina Bronsema for Christmas got high rankings with my husband.

He actually looked at it for more than 1 second and had to tell me everything he liked about it!

Here are some of the items he loved about the card: 
*all the dimensions that she added with the popped up snowman from Punch Pals
*
the white craft ink added to the edges of the card
*the layers of ribbon
*the glitter that added extra sparkle
*the shading on the snowman
*and all the extra glitz she added with decorative paper, faux stitching, etc

I was so impressed that he took the time to admire Eraina’s awesome card…that I just had to share it.

Here’s a close up of her snowman!

BTW, Eraina and her husband own Singleton Lake Family Camping & Cottages in Lyndhurst, ON. If you’re looking for summer camping near Ottawa, you can check it out HERE.

Thanks Eraina for the lovely card!

Have a HAPPY STAMPING DAY! Josee
