I’d NEVER stamped a card before in my LIFE and I had no intention whatsoever of doing workshops. I simply thought that I could buy my own goodies at discount to give me something fun to do; but little did I know how enjoyable and satisfying it would be to share these wonderful stamps and ideas with others. And now, I make enough money to support my addiction! But the best thing? The best thing is that I get to be creative, I get to share what I’ve learnt and I can help other people find their passion in stamping. It’s such a good fun , practical, useful hobby!

WooHoo! Happy New Catalogue Day!!
The long wait is over – the NEW Autumn-Winter mini catalogue is now available!!!
There are so many fun and cool products and stamps in this mini – I think it’s one of the best yet!
A few items that you’ll find in the mini, are:
THE BIG SHOT!!
Big Shot die-cutting system.
There’s a new big shot in town–the Sizzix Big Shot for Stampin’ Up! The Big Shot is a sturdy manual die cutting system used to die cut materials for use on crafts, home décor projects, and even clothing–it’s a big deal! You can cut felt, denim, chipboard, metallic card, vellum, self-adhesive felt, self-adhesive glitter paper and much more!! The possibilities are endless!! You’ll love what the Big Shot machine can do for you.
It’s important to note that there are different types of dies.
- Originals, Bigz, and Bigz XL dies. These steel ruled dies cut through virtually any material and multiple sheets of card stock and Designer Series paper.
- Sizzlets dies. These dies are small and detailed, often creating scored or perforated details. These dies cut through thin materials, and multiple sheets are not recommended.
The Big Shot really does make it easy to create multiple die-cuts or embossed cardstock for all your cards and scrapbooking. I’ve really enjoyed playing with it so far! There are some lovely dies and two Embossing Folders that can add Jazz to your cards.
CLEAR-MOUNTED STAMPS
Clear-Mounted Stamps & Blocks
Recently, Stampin’ Up! has had a huge demand for a line of repositionable clear-mount rubber stamps. Well, you asked for it, and now you have it! Starting with stamps in the 2010 Autumn-Winter Mini Catalogue, Stampin’ Up! now offers our exclusive stamp art in both traditional wood-mount, and the new clear-mount option.
Our new clear-mount rubber stamps are the result of extensive research with the intent to maintain the very best image quality in the stamping industry, while at the same time offering the ease-of-use and storability inherent in repositionable clear-mount rubber stamps.
Clear-Mount Rubber Stamp Features:
- Nine different sizes of clear blocks available individually or as a discounted bundle.
- Blocks have ergonomic grooves on all four sides for easy grip and traditional wood-mount feel.
- Stamps and blocks are durable and easy to clean with your Stampin’ Scrub and Stampin’ Mist.
- Optional image labels on stamp backs let you decide if you want to see the image through the block or not.
- Tight die-cutting for easy image positioning.
- Large clear blocks can be used to create collages or spell words with alphabet sets.
- Stamps store easily in standard, DVD-type cases with artwork on front and spine, making organisation easy.
Clear-mount stamps are a new option for high-quality rubber stamps from Stampin’ Up! This new option offers a compact storage solution and is great for those who prefer repositionable stamps with fewer blocks. They work out to be between $5 to $10 cheaper than the equivalent wood-mounted stamp set so can be a very cost-effective way to continue your stamping addiction without breaking the bank!!!
Stampin’ Up! will continue to carry all of the stamps in the wood-mount option. While one stamper may prefer wood-mount, another may prefer clear-mount, and still others may prefer a little of both. The best option is whatever fits your needs best!
NEW PUNCH DESIGN
New Punch Design
This new style of punch design offers a larger cutting surface and sleeker body which will give you greater precision in cutting, better punching leverage and space-saving storage!!
The most exciting (well, I think so anyway!!) new punch is a Two-Step Punch. The Extra-Large Two-Step Bird punch is amazing! With it, you can cut more than one image with each “punch”. This particular punch will punch out a bird’s body, a bird wing and a tree branch. SO CUTE!!! Punch out a few different colours of cardstock and simply layer the different colours to create a very quick and easy birdie accent. I love this one!!!!
*******
These are just some of the NEW cool products that you’ll see in the Autumn-Winter mini. Keep checking back here as I’ll be uploading cards and projects made with these new items and many other stamps from the catalogue.
(I’d better run off and be creative!!)……………………………………………………..

Stampin’ Up! Victoria Bushfire Appeal
In the wake of the horrific Victorian bushfires it’s hard not to feel helpless and wonder how on earth we can help the people that have been so terribly affected… I struggle to watch or listen to anything about the fires without feeling overwhelmingly sad and tearful, and I know so many of you feel the same.
There are many ways to help the Bushfire victims – by donating to the Red Cross, shopping at Coles on certain days and donating at banks and local post offices… but I’m so glad that Stampin’ Up! have also given us as demonstrators the chance to raise funds too;
You can now join with Stampin’ Up! and demonstrators from all over Australia and New Zealand in helping the victims of the Bushfire tragedy.
Stampin’ Up! have put together a list of ten stamp sets that are available for purchase through 12th February to 31st March. Stampin’ Up! will donate 50% of the sales of these selcet stamp sets to the Australian Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal.

More Sale-A-Bration cards
I’m really enjoying playing with the Sale-A-Brations sets – I especially love the Botanical Blooms set as it’s great for creating pretty backgrounds. As you can see by the following cards, I’ve used the flowers to create an all-over background and then used it as a feature on the card.
The colours and cardstock used are Ruby Red, Chocolate Chip and Wild Wasabi. I’ve used the Edge Scallop punch to create a lovely border on the Chocolate Chip cardstock and used three Old Olive brads in the top corner for interest. The stamp sets are: Botanical Blooms (available for free when you spend $100 as a customer), and Sincere Salutations (from the current 2008-2009 Idea Book & Catalogue).
I LOVE these earthy colours. I decided to try out the Kraft cardstock and I’m so glad that I did! It goes with almost everything and is very easy to match colours to – especially earthy tones.
For the above card, I used the Speckled Jumbo Wheel with VersaMark as a background and then layered some Afternoon Tea Designer Series Paper on Chocolate Chip cardstock and tied Chocolate Chip Taffeta ribbon around it. I randomly stamped the flower and leaf images from Botanical Blooms in Ruby Red and Wild Wasabi ink on Confetti White cardstock and then stamped the outline images over the top in Chocolate Chip and Always Artichoke. I then layered this on Ruby Red cardstock. I then stamped the saying from Botanical Blooms onto Confetti White cardstock, and punched it out with the small oval punch. Before adhereing it to a large oval of Chocolate Chip cardstock, I gently inked the edges with Chocolate Chip ink by ‘scraping’ the ink spot around the cardstock.
By keeping with the same colours, I’ve been able to create three or four cards that are all slightly different and yet keep a similar theme/feel to them. It’s also a great time saver if you make a couple of cards at the same time – you don’t need to make them all identical, be creative! Change a colour here, a background there… have fun!
For the above card, I’ve used the following inks; Ruby Red, Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wasabi, Always Artichoke (outline of leaves) and Chocolate Chip (for the saying). Cardstock; Kraft for the base card, Very Vanilla, Ruby Red and Chocolate Chip. I inked the edge of the Very Vanilla cardstock in a combination of Creamy Caramel, Close to Cocoa and Chocolate Chip to create depth of shading.
I mentioned the Stamp-a-ma-jig in a previous post, and I actucally used it here with these cards! It doesn’t look like it, but I wanted the outline image of the leaves to be slightly off-centre – but I wanted to control ‘how far’ off-centre they were. :o)
Also, don’t forget that when you’re using a Two-Step stamp set, it’s often very effective to “stamp off” some ink before you stamp the flower images. You’ll notice that some of the flowers appear darker than others and this is because I “stamped off” once onto scrap paper and then stamped onto my cardstock – this gives a fainter image. It’s a good idea to do this as it makes your completed card look more natural rather than having all the images exactly the same depth of colour. Experiment and try stamping off twice before stamping onto your cardstock.
Happy Stamping!

Sale-A-Bration sample cards
There are four beautiful stamp sets that you can choose for free during Sale-A-Bration! For each $100 spent as a customer and for $600 in sales as a Hostess you can choose one set. If your spend $200, choose two sets etc…
I have used the Sale-A-Bration set “Polka Dot Punches” and used the co-ordinating 5 petal punch. The base card is Kraft cardstock and I’ve also used Chocolate Chip and Ruby Red cardstock. Add some Chocolate Grosgrain ribbon, Always Artichoke and Ruby Red brads and a saying, and you have a completed card in a very short amount of time.
This is a second card made with Polka Dot Punches except that this time, I’ve used custom-colorued felt flowers (Flower Fusion) from the current Summer mini catalogue in Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive. The base cardstock is Always Artichoke with Chocolate Chip and Kraft cardstock as extra layers. All ink is Chocolate Chip, and I’ve pricked a feature of holes with the Matt Pack along the lower edge of the card. Brads are Always Artichoke and More Mustard. I’ll upload another card as soon as possible – I’ve been having computer “issues” whilst trying to upload these cards… our Hard Drive is full to bursting and I’m switching between CD-stored photos and the hard-drive to get everything saved and uploaded. *big sigh*. *restrains self from shouting at computer as will need it to work nicely for me in future*
Happy Stamping!
