and Happy New Autumn-Winter Mini Catalogue!

The brand new products in the AUS / NZ Stampin' Up! Autumn-Winter Mini Catalogue are fabulous and I can't wait to get my hands on LOTS of them!

One of my favourites is a gorgeous addition to Shelli's Signature Collection; a set of 10 stamps called Tea Shoppe. I had a play with this stamp set recently when completing a 12"x12" layout of a day trip to Sydney with mum.

All the stamped images on this layout have been inked with the Stampin' Write Markers, direct to rubber, so you can enjoy multicoloured stamping in one step. I love this technique. When you lift the stamp off the card, you're never entirely sure what effect you're going to get, and it's always a delight!

To match the colours in the photos, I have chosen River Rock, Chocolate Chip, More Mustard and Real Red markers for this layout. Love all those neutral colours together with a splash of red.

There are two more new product sneak peaks in this layout. Can you pick them?

Yes, there is a lovely, lovely stamp set called Apothecary Art, a set of 6 stamps with truly beautiful labels, which co-ordinates beautifully with the Labels Collections Framelits Dies, also in the mini catalogue.  Aaaahhh Heaven!

Want to see the mini catalogue right now?  You can flick through the pages online at the Stampin' Up! Customer website. Or you can come to my Mini Catalogue Launch workshop in my stamping room on Saturday 28th April at 2pm. We'll have a look at lots of the new goodies, try a couple of them out, have a door prize and divvy up the hostess benefits so there'll be lots of goodies for everyone!  Let me know if you'd like to come. RSVP on my demonstrator website or Facebook or email [email protected] for the address.

April is a busy month with school holidays and Easter - but I sure hope to catch up with you soon!
