Monday

I think today was the day I truly felt for the first time that summer is on it’s way. I had all the doors wide open and the sun streaming in, it was glorious. I had extra company today as Braden was off school sick. He crashed out on the couch for most the day but I kicked him out in the sunshine to get some fresh air in the afternoon and he had an incredibly creative time.
This creation is called “Pine and stick”.

Love spontaneous creativity.

Remember a few weeks ago I posted that I had bought myself a new toy in the way of a spiral punch? It looked like this.

Anyway I had a few comments on the post asking who makes it and just over the past few days I’ve had a few emails as well.

So here ya go. Here is the info.
The punch is one by Stampin’ Up! I got mine from one of NZ’s independant demonstrators for Stampin Up!, Janine Rutherford. I emailed Janine to ask if it was Ok to put her email address on my blog post and she mentioned she will even run a little promotion. Woohooooo! We like free stuff, so it goes like this…

Anyone that orders any Stampin’ Up from Janine over the next week (so by 9pm next Monday night) and mentions they found Janine via my blog will go into the draw to win a Stampin’ Up! Craft Kit. Everyone that purchases will also earn a $5.00 voucher to use on any future purchases over $50.00. You can reach Janine on janine.rutherford@xtra.co.nz – Phew I think I got that right!

Now along with those comments asking where to get the punch were a few asking to see how it is used. I use it as a border punch mainly and I can’t show you the full layouts, as these are assignments, but I can show you the closeups.

I’ll share the full layouts in a few weeks time.

I have more Stampin’ Up! products that I have been converted to as well, including an awesome adhesive for ribbon, but I won’t fill a post with them. Let me know if you want to see images of my fav stamps and some other punches.

Anyhoooooooo enough talkin about exciting new toys and free stuff! I’m off to scrap some more – after I finish the GST. ugh.

laters.

    Nic – I am so enticed by the little peeks at the assignments. It almost makes me want to cry that I can’t see the whole thing yet. But it also inspires me to go try something similar! Thank you, and I will anxiously anticipate a peek at more!

    I love what you did with the punch. Wow! I must try something a little more… ummm… layered with mine. 😉

    Hey, great offers from your SU! demo. I LOVE their products and will have the scalloped edged circle punch in my hot little hands this weekend. YAY!

    The peak of the new lo really looks good. Hope I’ll see the rest. I bookmarked your TP gallery today but I love your lo and think you are a very creative scrapper. I love your Infuse lo so much that I went out and bought Infuse and scraplifted your lo. I saw it on lifetimemoments.com but didn’t know who the creator was but finally found out today 🙂 If you are interested you can see my scraplift in my scrapbook.com gallery: http://www.scrapbook.com/galleries/191429/view/1041985/-1/0/1.html. Keep up the good work.

    Stampin Up! stuff is great. I only wish the full US catalogue was here in Aus.

    Are you going to have your book available at the Crafting Connection in Sydney ?
