Haitian Disaster relief

From the Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Website:

"On 12 January, 2010 a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti, leaving in its wake devastation so overwhelming that the Haitian people and their leaders can only look for help from the outside to cope. As a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, you can help make a difference in the lives of those who continue to suffer from the effects of this earthquake by purchasing, and more importantly selling, the I {Heart} Hearts stamp set. From now until 28 February 2010, $2 from every I {Heart} Hearts stamp set you sell will be donated to the American Red Cross' Haiti Relief and Development Fund. The Red Cross is already well-established in Haiti, and this money will be used to provide immediate relief and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance and other support to help those in need".

Click here to see the flyer.

For every I {Heart} Heart stamp set purchased through me I will also be donating my 20% commission to Oxfam.

The I {Heart} Hearts stamp set is available for $42.95 AUD .

To place an order please phone or email me.

Thank you and hopefully together we can contribute to this relief effort.

Happy New Year and some scrapping

Happy New Year everyone. I hope you have all had a lovely Christmas and are enjoying the holidays. We are having an at home holiday this year and trying to get some jobs finished around the house. My lovely hubby has already finished painting the front of our house and is now on to building a bedroom for our eldest. He is sooo handy to have around.

I can't wait for the boys to all have their own room. It will make such a difference...some time-out from each other is very important some days lol.

Only problem is that I have to do some major downsizing of my scrapbook supplies so I can fit in my new area. Sam (my now 14 month old) loves to help and as I try and organise he is busily unpacking everything in sight. Sigh. I will get there one day.

I have managed to do a little scrapbooking though and I have a page to share using the Hoppy Memories Scrapbooking Kit from Stampin' Up!.

There is lots of inking and distressing on this one and I have used the Curly Label punch to make a border on my photo mat.

I can hear Sam crying in the background..better run

Happy Scrapping

I was a bit late with my Summer Mini Pre-order so I am hoping my new stamps will arrive so I can have a play with them this weekend. There are lots of gorgeous new accessories in the catalogue too so stay tuned for some more product shares next week.

Vintage Christmas

I had meeting with my lovely Technique Club girls last night. Each month for the last 8 months we have been learning a different technique. This month it was Cracked Glass.

This is a simple but very effective technique using layers of embossing powder that when cooled are cracked (like glass...wonder where the name comes from lol).

Here is a more detailed picture of the image...see the little cracks. It looks really effective in person.

The set we used is Good Cheer from the Spring Mini Catalogue (available until the end of November). The gorgeous striped ribbon is also from the Mini catalogue and will be gone at the end of the month too so if you would like to get your hands on some best place your order soon.

My next Technique Club will be starting in February 2010. If you are interested in joining please contact me for more details.

Happy stamping

My little man is one!!

Look at this gorgeous face..doesn't it melt your heart.

I can't believe Sam is one. This year has just flown by. He is such a happy contented baby (or boy now...boo hoo). He really is such a joy and everyone just adores him.



And yes he is getting a bit cheeky ...check out that grin. Mischief is his middle name.




And Sam and Mummy with his cupcake..(mummy only does black and white lol).

We took the boys to Anzac Park for a play and cupcakes to celebrate his birthday on Sunday. No big deal... just fun with his brothers and he loved it. I hope he stays so easily pleased.

Love you Sammy
