Retiring Products going fast.....

So we are a couple of weeks into the Retired List and although things have sold out, some very very quickly, there's still plenty of discounted items left for you to choose from.

Here's the link if you'd like to take a look

Last week my classes focussed around the "Jar of Love" bundle.  This is such a gorgeous set of jam jars, flowers and other images, including some greetings too.

Now although the stamps and dies will be carrying over into the new Annual Catalogue in June, they won't be available as a bundle, so if your'e thinking of making a purchase, do it sooner rather than later.

Here's one of my cards, I used the lovely "Hardwood" background stamp {{love this}}, so happy it's staying with us for another year!

My colour combo is Sweet Sugarplum, Bermuda Bay and Whisper White.

On Stage Amsterdam

Over the past couple of months I have been finding it hard to keep up to date with my blog, I have managed to find a better life/work balance over the past year, making time to do the things that make me happy.

My aim is to get back to posting more regularly as I am still creating oodles of projects, just not finding the time to share them here, with platforms such as Instagram, it's just so much easier and faster sharing my creations and that's kind of where I have been focussing on of late.

So today I thought I would catch up with details from the recent On Stage Event I attended in Amsterdam earlier this month.

I had the most amazing time, spent with 4 of my team.

Following from my previous post, here is the first of my swaps.  At Stampin' Up! events we do something called "swapping".  We create a card front design, make several, then swap them with others meaning you come home with a whole load of different ideas!  It's great and a part of these events that I really love as you get to mix and mingle with people you've never met before.  

For my second swap I used the "Carousel Birthday" stamps which I adore, sadly these are now on the retired list but still available to purchase at present so don't miss out, get it before it's gone!

My colour combo here is Mint Macaron and Peekaboo Peach

I like to make gifts for my team, here they are all packaged with their names on, I was excited to give these to them, will have to get a photo of the contents for you!

I attended Centre Stage, an evening and a lunch specifically for leaders.  The evening was lovely, the opportunity to chat and engage with other Demonstrators, a fabulous meal, live group, dancing, gifts and great company!

Look at the gorgeous notebook we received in our bags, and those Post It Notes, well, what can I say!!!

Such an exciting couple of days, to come away carrying the new 2017/18 is the greatest feeling, so many exciting and gorgeous new products to share with you all soon.

The next On Stage event is in Birmingham on 11th November, I would love for you to join me on this adventure, if you'd like to find out more about the benefits of being a Demonstrator, how you too can get sneak peaks of upcoming products, earn a permanent discount on your products and become part of an amazing community of crafters then just get in touch with me at

stampinkerry@aol.com

for a very informal chat

Tomorrow I will be taking a flight to Amsterdam to attend the

Stampin' Up! On Stage Event

and I can't wait to be there!!

Now I'm going to have so much fun I thought it would be nice to give away some FREE PRODUCTS, you will find the details down below so keep reading!

As at every Stampin' Up! event we swap, this is a process of making card fronts then swapping with other Demonstrators and coming home with lots of new ideas!

Below is one of my swaps in progress, I will post the finished design later.

My colour combination is

Bermuda Bay

Rich Razzleberry

Whisper White

Love these colours together and although they aren't subtles that I'm usually drawn to I still love them!

I used the Window Shopping Stamps and Window Box dies from the Spring/Summer catalogue, both can be purchased singly or as a bundle saving you money, a fabulous set great for making cards and boxes with.

I designed this card for a recent class and decided it would be a nice one to create as a swap, it's pretty simple but sweet with it and could be dressed up a little if needed.

I used my Petite Petals punch to create a decorative end on my greeting banner, I really like how it finishes it off.

So whilst I am away enjoying myself and feasting over lots of lovely new products that will be coming your way soon, I thought I would give away some

LOVELY FREE PRODUCTS

Just place an order with me for a min £25, online or via email between

6th and 9th April and I will send you a free gift in the post to say thank you for shopping with me.
