You may not want to start a business out of Stampin' Up!, but why pay full price for your Stampin' Up! stash when you could become a hobby demo... I started out as a hobby demo but changed my mind and decided to promote my business, I have now promoted to a Silver 2 and was Demonstrator Number 9 of the Year in 2009/2010. The pictures above show what you can get in your Starter Kit and you can chop and change stash to make it personal to you.

Demonstrator. You dont have to live near me, most of my Team live a way away, but we all get along fine.... I look forward to hearing from you.

A Card To Get Over The Shock......

Thought it was about time I showed you another card that I had made.... this is for my Church Order.....

The sentiment is computer generated, the Patterned Paper is from my Green Stack, and yes you guessed it I have used some Stampin' Up! stash, Real Red Cardstock, Gable Green Cardstock and Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon.... bling is from stash... as are the flowers...

Have a great weekend all and thanks for your comments on the girl's bedroom, I have been given some good advice from a fellow Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and I will be giving her ideas a go.... once daughter has already made a start, just need to see what second daughter says when she gets home from work experience....

Take Care

Not so nice Monday....

The weather here has been apalling this afternoon, it has winded, it has rained and all at once too and just at the time the children come out of school, funny enough now it is evening, the sun has come out at last. My daughter drove down to Cornwall yesterday and she says the weather is lovely there, infact I saw for myself as she sent me photos, the sky is blue, the sun is shining, but they also have the wind, which was just as well as she was going surfing today.

I had a lovely Mother's Day (well actually I did more work than ever and even cooked my dinner for everyone) and got some lovely presents, 2 CDs that I wanted, the new Tim Hughes, Happy Day and the new Delirious Album which is possibly their last ever. I also got a gorgeous blue toiletry bag full of Dove toiletries, some chocolates and wine, 3 books, 1 of which I asked for and the other 2 were surprises, my 12 year old son bought me a rose and then weeded all the overgrown garden and planted it for me, and my 6 year old made daddy go out and buy me some flowers..... from my son of course... lol I also got some gorgeous flower candles, but they are truly too beautiful to burn, so am going to have to think on that one.... lol because what is the point in having candles if you dont use them...

Today I have been making a bag and card for my Sister's birthday tomorrow, they are totally matching, and I have no idea how she is going to open the bag. It started off as a brown lunch bag, I folded the top over and then put panels on the front and back and joined them at the top, so I am thinking she is going to have to cut it open... lol not my problem. So here they are...

I have been using new stash from the New Mini Catalogue which comes out on 1st April, and the new items are truly scrummy... I used So Saffron and Certainly Celery Cardstock, the new Playful Petals Stamp Set plus the Ovals All Stamp Set along with the Oval Scallop Punch and the Oval Punch, these are proving to be really popular, I have sold 3 sets of these already. The Patterned Paper is called Tea Party and the ribbon is Certainly Celery Grosgrain. On the bag I actually used the stamp from Ovals All, but on the card I used the stamp from Ovals All but only coloured in the flower part with my Stampin Up Marker in So Saffron, then using my Stamp a ma jig I stamped Happy Birthday from the Very Versatile Stamp Set and punched it out using the Oval Punch. How versatile are these sets when you can just mix and match.

I have one place left in my Paper and Ribbon Share, this will be sent to you at the beginning of April sometime as some of the paper and ribbon is from the new Mini Catalogue and I cannot order this until 1st April, but I promise you, the items will be ordered on 1st April, so you dont have long to wait now.

Dont forget the fantastic offer on the Starter Kit, just £125, and if you add just the stash up it comes to £217, so one really big bargain here, and all you have to do after signing up as a demonstrator and receiving this kit is to meet a target every quarter (and guess what, the first quarter doesn't count, you dont have to reach your targets until your second quarter, but you do need to sign up this evening, or tomorrow to get the Starter Kit at this price).

Off to Beavers now, sewn on the badge I need to and I will be staying to help, so need to get dinner ready so that they can just put it in the oven and cook it... have a great evening all xx

Oh No I Forgot.....

To take a photo of the card I made for my daughter to give to her MIL tomorrow on her 50th birthday, I was so pleased I had finished it that I didn't photograph it, maybe I can get her to bring it back... lol

Anyway, I still have a card to show you. I had 2 wonderful girls decide to become Demonstrators last month and they joined my team. I made them a card each to send with their free stamp sets, plus a little ribbon sampler, which I also didn't photograph. But here is the card...

I used Bashful Blue Cardstock, Summer Picnic Patterned Paper, some felt flowers from the Accents and Elements Set, a Bashful Blue Brad, the image is from the Tart and Tangy Set inked in Real Red and Old Olive. The Welcome sentiment is from an old Hostess Set we had in the last catalogue.... you can only get the Hostess Sets whilst the catalogue is current, once it finishes you can no longer get these wonderful sets. I also used the Tag Punches to cut out the Tag Shapes. Hope you like it...

Have a great evening, take care

Linda

Whew, Nearly The Weekend....

Well it seems like it has been a long long week this week, although it has been really nice to have some sun on most days, a pleasant change, even if it has been frosty in the morning. Have done a lot more walking this week in an effort to lose weight and I have only lost 1/4 lb, less than ever, what is going on, and tomorrow we are taking the boys to London and will be eating out and my willpower is virtually nil in these situations, so will have totally blown it for Monday. Plus husband and I have decided to cook another nice meal this Friday, he is cooking main course and he wont tell me what it is, but 2 parcels have turned up this week from Lakeland... should be interesting. I am cooking starter and dessert and he doesn't know what it is, but I guess he will once he looks in the fridge... lol Plus I have bought a nice bottle of white wine, we normally drink Hardy's of some kind but this week I have opted for Jacobs Creek Pinot Grigio or something like that... (DH is the australian one).... lol

Anyway, have been busy today packing up my Stampers 10 orders for my first group, and their parcels are whizzing their way to them at this moment, so hopefully they will get them tomorrow. They also have a little gift from me in their parcels too, hope they like it. Dont forget team, I have posted K Werners Colour Challenge on my Member's Forum and if 5 or more people submit a card for it and post it on my forum I will be giving away a free stamp set to one lucky randomly picked winner, so if you think I am not good at this, it doesn't matter, I wont be judging anyone's skills, just picking a name out of a hat... but, you've got to be in it to win it.

If anyone is thinking of becoming a Stampin Up Demonstrator, please e-mail me (LindaLloyd@gmx.net) for a great offer coming up soon, and all the goodies you can get free. You can sign up as a hobby demo just to get your own Stampin Up Stash at a discount, so contact me with any questions with no obligation to sign up...

And on to todays card...


The cardstock used is Stampin Up Really Rust and Blush Blossom, and the stamp I cannot remember who it is, but the sentiment is from the Stampin Up Set One of A Kind. And that is it for this week, I am now off to start our starters..... have a really great weekend and take care of yourselves... xx

I have actually been productive, woohoo!!!

I have actually been productive today, which will make a change, I seem to get on the computer and never leave it, so have made an effort to make some cards today. There is actually quite a lot of stuff on my to do list, just need to get the motivation.

I have 4 orders submitted now to Stampin' Up! and am waiting for them to ship, I am so excited about the new mini catalogue, so I am hoping that stuff will turn up soon, unfortunately the other 3 orders are for customers, but I still get excited when they arrive and I package them up.... lol

I have 2 new downline who joined my Team in February, a great big welcome to Teri Pocock and Sarah Howells, I wish you well with your Stampin' Up! and hope you achieve your goals...

I still have places for more people, so if you want to make Stampin' Up! your business, or you just want to become a hobby demo, then contact me on LindaLloyd@gmx.net for more information. You cannot go wrong, you can sign up, buy your Starter Kit for £139 (the goods in the kit are worth £250), the kit can be customised so you get the Stamp Sets that you want, and the colours that you want too. If after the first quarter you find it is not for you, then you can just leave and keep all this scrummy SU stuff, no obligation. I am also offering until 9th March a FREE stamp set of your choice from the current catalogue plus the 4 Saleabration Stamp Sets also FREE, plus if you sign up now, you get to pre-order all the new goodies in the new mini catalogue at a humungous discount... contact me for more details. After the 9th of March I will still be offering the 4 Saleabration Sets, but unfortunately no freebie Stamp Sets from the Catalogue.

So you want to see what I have made today?? Here goes....

For this card I used Rose Red Cardstock, the retired Petal and Paisley Designer Patterned Paper, and the Bloomin' With Beauty Stamp Set, I also used the Scallop Edge Punch and I pierced the corners of the image...

Off to take my little boy to cubs now.... have a good evening all xx

And yet another card.....

Haven't done much this week, so nothing much to report..... its like the calm after the storm, and things are settling down, its a great relief to have everything so calm after a week like last week. DH saw a consultant yesterday and they discussed his blood tests and the consultant said they were all fine, so that leaves a couple more visits to the Consultant and that should be that... (hopefully!)

I got some exciting news from Stampin' Up! today, but unfortunately I cannot share with you yet, but watch this space.... and start saving your money.... lol

Here is the card for today....

I used Real Red and Bashful Blue Cardstock, the Stampin' Up! Scallop Edge Punch and the Stampin' Up! Never Ending Joy Stamp Set. Cannot remember who made the Patterned Paper though, sorry, it was in my stash. The stamp set is £15.95 and has Easter Sentiments too, so would be ideal for Easter Cards. If you would like to buy this set, just e-mail me and I will order it for you. I will ship it to you for free too, as long as you order it before Sunday.

If you would like to become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, I will give you 1 of each of the Saleabration Sets for free as soon as you are signed up, so that is 4 free stamp sets which will no longer be available after Sunday. So in effect they are Limited Edition. Contact me on LindaLloyd@gmx.net for more information.

Have a great evening all xx

Wow, what an awful week I have had, which is why I haven't updated my Blog.....

So last week was one that I would like to forget, one that I wish I could wave a magic wand over and turn back the clock.... DH has a few health problems at the moment and was sent for blood tests over a week ago now, they came back, not normal but what was expected, so he went to the Doctors and they said he needed another blood test, so off he went to the hospital and there were 31 people in front of him and he needed to get to work. On the Sunday his car brakes were very strange and so he had to use my car, so half term holiday, no car..... so not only on the Tuesday did he have 31 people in front of him for the blood test he was also trying to get the parts for his car too... total nightmare, his car does not take parts that his car should, they look up the year and type of car and it is never any of the bits it should be, so after the hospital he had to come home, take the wheel off his car and take photographs of his brake cylinders (bearing in mind he has on a shirt and tie ready for work) and eventually gets the bits he needs. Then back to the Doctor's on Friday about the blood test and voila.... excellent, they did the wrong one...... so he had to go back yesterday for yet another one, and then off to the Consultant on Wednesday and the Doctor's again on Friday, I can see his boss getting fed up pretty quickly. In the meantime on the same Tuesday as the car and the 31 people, it is 5pm in the afternoon and my son comes running to me shaking and crying saying my little pugs eyes is popping out, at that minute she runs to me and it is probably the most awful thing I have ever seen in real life, I couldn't even look at her.... so no car, and injured pet, and distraught child and my mind goes blank. I eventually manage to ring my daughter for a lift to the vets, manage to persuade the vet that it is an emergency and no I cannot wait an hour and a half for an appointment. We get there they rush us into a consulting room and say they have to operate right away, "has she eaten".... I say yes, they say well there is a danger whilst she is under anaethestic that she may vomit, choke on it and die, there is also a danger she will loose her eye. I signed the consent form and walked out the vets in tears.... I arrived home and my son is fixing DHs car, and then DH arrives home, the vets ring his mobile phone, they say she is going to lose her eye as the optic nerve has been severed.... this is a nightmare... they ring again about 40 minutes later saying we can pick her up.... poor little thing is so drowsy and is so not herself. One of the children sleep in the lounge with her that night. She is getting used to her problem now, although she still has a large collar over her head as she cannot pull her stitches out her eye, that would be awful, but she has learned now to drink and eat with it on.... here is a picture of her, it doesn't look as horrific as it sounds and when she is asleep you cannot even tell... but I feel so guilty that it happened...



So I have been busy looking after her all week along with the children on half term. I also had a major sort out, change around and new furniture in my bedroom which is also my scrap room.... I will take some photos and post in a few days, I will post some before and after photos... wow there is such a difference, I absolutely love it now, although some things have gone missing and I haven't found them yet.

Yesterday we went to London O2 Arena to see The Killers.... they were absolutely awesome, I am a huge fan of them ever since I saw them support U2 in Poland in 2005, we went to Berlin in 2007 and saw them live there too, and we were between 3 and 5 rows from the front, although I must admit some German kid did try and start a fight with me then.... so last night we had seats instead, although I must say the UK fans are very reserved and so I may have to go abroad next time I want to see a good band and dance and sing along.... and here is the wonderful Mr Flowers...


Wish I could go back again tonight and do it all over again. We also had a wonderful meal at Las Iguanas at the O2 definately worth a trip if you are in the area.... awesome food and excellent staff... the cocktails weren't bad either.

And yes I have made some cards, so here is my card for today....

The Cardstock used was Lovely Lilac and So Saffron, the papers were from my stash, the lace edge is a Fiskars Border Punch. The sentiment is from Verve stamps in US and the flowers and brads are also from my stash. And for those of you who like to see my cards made only with Stampin Up products, keep your eye out as I have a few to post over the coming week.

If anyone would like to sign up as a demonstrator for Stampin Up, today is really the last day to let me know as you need to sign up before the end of February (which is only 4 days away) to get your 2 free stamps sets from the catalogue and your 2 free Saleabration sets which will no longer be available once February is finished... so contact me on LindaLloyd@gmx.net if you are interested. As well as all these free stamp sets you will also get a Starter Kit worth £250 for only £139, plus a discount on your own stash. You dont have to make it a business (although you can if you like) you can just be a hobby demo and buy your own stash at a discount.

Have a great day all, take care

Wow a productive day....

After sitting at my desk this week looking for my mojo, it finally returned today, and I made a few cards, some envelopes and I am even blogging.... how good am I??



So I will share one of the cards I made today, and yes I even managed to use some Stampin' Up! stash too...

This is what is known as a Criss Cross Card. You just pop out the little card and write your message on it and pop it back in again. I used Basic Grey Patterned Paper, Stampin' Up! Rose Red Cardstock and Rose Red Grosgrain with White Stitching, I then used Bella's Bloom Stamp Set with Rose Red and Old Olive Ink. The wrap that goes around the card is Pretty in Pink Cardstock, I also used my Stampin' Up! punches to make the wrap decoration and the Tab Punch for the tab on the little note. The sentiment is from Papertrey Inc. I also used my Stampin' Up! tool set for the holes in the cardstock, check this out as it is such a useful toolset.

If you would like to order anything, just contact me on LindaLloyd@gmx.net, or if you would like to become a demonstrator and get all the great Stampin' Up! benefits then check out the link at the top of the post.

Have a great evening all xx

Hope You All Had A Very Merry Christmas....

And a Happy New Year, here's me wishing you all a Prosperous New Year....

Just wanted to let you know more about Stampin' Up!s special Saleabration Offer. For every £45 you spend, you can choose a Limited Edition Stamp Set for Free....... if you spend £90 you can have 2 Free Limited Edition Stamp Sets... and so on. If you would like to hold a workshop and your workshop achieves sales of over £300 you will be entitled to a Free Saleabration set too... and if you would like to become a Demonstrator and claim 3 Free Stamp Sets, please read my post below....

Click on the Saleabration Link on the Left Hand Side of my blog and it will take you to an online Saleabration Leaflet, but just to give you a taster, here are the 4 Stamp Sets that you can collect.

Remember though, this offer is only good for orders placed before 28th February 2009!

This one is called Botanical Blooms and is a two way Stamp Set whereas you stamp the coloured bit first, then the edge over the top, it is a good idea to use a Stamp-a-ma-Jig for this, and the image can be coloured using the Stampin Up Waterproof Crayons, just click on the Saleabration Catalogue Cover on the Left Hand Side for ideas on using these Stamps.


Lovely Stamps to use if you are giving someone something edible as a gift, again see the catalogue for more ideas.


Excellent sentiment set, you can use the big Congratulations, then follow on with one of the smaller sayings.

These stamps can be used with the Scallop Circle Punch for the round flower and the 5 Petal Punch for the five petal Stamp, these are excellent for many occasions, but I will be using the heart for some Valentine Cards.

Hopefully once everyone goes back to school next week things will settle down to normal and I will get around to making cards again, that is only if my new computer that is turning up on Saturday behaves itself, I have never had an easy time of swapping all my information across and I will have the added problem this time of my new computer being a 64 bit and this one being a 32 bit, I will have to download updated drivers for most of my software.... and cutting machines...

I will leave you with a card I made recently...

I think the papers are Laura Ashley, and one of the cricut cartridges had a flower so similar I cut it out and stuck it over one of the flowers on the card, if you look carefully you can just about see it, I also sewed around the outside of the card, the sentiment is computer generated.

Have a great evening everyone xx

Where Does The Time Go....

How fast is December going, I swear I am going to be better organised next year, in fact in my members forum, I am going to have a thread for Christmas Cards made each month, and that will give me an incentive to make my Christmas Cards over the year and use up some of the stash that has accumulated.... lol

So what have I been up to, well aswell as packing and posting loads of parcels and ordering my £100 of free Stampin Up Stash that I won by getting a promotion, plus the 12 stamp sets I also won by the amount of sales I had, plus my recruits, I have been making loads of cards (if you are interested in signing up as a hobby demo or business demo to Stamping Up, just e-mail me for the special offers I have in store for you in the new year... LindaLloyd@gmx.net). Not all the cards are Stampin Up, in fact only 1 is, I really need to use up some of my other stash, so here are some of the cards I have been making. They all have bible quotes on them as they are used by a lady in my church who reaches out to people in need...

I used Basic Grey Ambrosia PP and cut out a butterfly using a spellbinders butterfly die... the sentiment is computer generated.

Not sure about any of this paper, was just in my stash, love the colours though, again the sentiment is computer generated.

Again the PP is Basic Grey but it is from the Cupcake collection this time, the flowers were cut out using various punches and the sentiment was computer generated.

I used Basic Grey Eva for this card, the bird stamp is from katzelkraft and the sentiment is again computer generated.

Again not sure what the paper is, but the sentiment is computer generated... but now I have just received my Stampin Up "Gods Blessings" stamp set, so hopefully you will see lots more cards using those sentiments instead.

Have a very busy week ahead, but will try and post some more cards tomorrow inbetween my Dad making his yearly visit, posting out parcels and attending DH's Christmas Works do, oh yes and 2 of the children going on their scouts Christmas Treat which is toboganning... whew I am exhausted just thinking about it.

Have a good evening all xx

EDITED TO ADD THAT I ONLY NEED 1 MORE PERSON....

A Rose is a Rose....

Isn't this card beautiful?? This stamp set is absolutely wonderful and I just knew that if I did it in blue, it could become a Christmas Card for someone who doesn't really celebrate Christmas...


I used A Rose is a Rose Stamp Set, Brocade Blue Ribbon, Brocade Blue Cardstock and Inkpad, Bashful Blue Patterned Paper, and Bashful Blue Inkpad.... I used the clear gem brads from the Pretties Kit. I used the Dazzling Diamonds to bling up the rose and its petals which I think just makes it more magically Christmassy....

And if you would like to become a demonstrator and you sign up with me during October and November you could pick this Stamp Set and receive it FREE along with any other stamp set of your choice too.... problem is, I only need 1 more person to sign up, and then all the stamp sets will be gone. If you would like more information about becoming a Stampin Up Demonstrator, e-mail me at LindaLloyd@gmx.net

And I have survived the first day of half term...... a miracle in itself...

Have a good evening all x
