The October CraftAlong is here! Let's support Breast Cancer Awareness.

 

Hello and welcome to our CraftAlong event for October 2023!  In today's live event we made a beautiful card together and talked about ways to support Breast Cancer Research.  Im so proud to be part of this community and I love that my viewers suggest ways for us to make a difference! 

Below is the card we made together today:

I really enjoyed making this card... and I hope you did too!  But in case you missed the video I have linked it again below:

I also have 4 more card tutorials for you this month, and you are welcome to purchase the tutorials (Purchase button is below).  Please note that this month I am donating $5 from each tutorial sale to support the National Breast Cancer Foundation.  Or if you are placing an order with me before the end of October I will donate 10% of the order amount to support this amazing cause. 

Dont forget if you placed an order with me last month, or are in my team of demonstrators, you do not need to purchase the tutorials as I will send them to you! 

Here is the button to purchase the tutorial pdf - please note the PDF contains links to a step by step instructional video for each card, as well as having the measurements for the cards - in both metric and imperial measurements.

Here are the cards you will make with this pdf:

I would love you to support this fabulous cause! And of course I hope you really enjoy the cards too!

Don't forget if you have placed an order over $60 with me this month (or do so before the end of October) you will qualify for the November CraftAlong event!  We will be making cards with the fabulous new Meandering Meadow products, and I know you will love them! 

Thanks for being part of my CraftAlong event this month!

Our October CraftAlong is coming up - and Im on a mission!

Our monthly CraftAlong event is coming up this Saturday the 28th October and you're invited! 

CraftAlong is something I've been doing for well over a year now, and its purpose to create a fun and safe space for us all to create a project together. I do a live video that anyone can watch, and you can watch whilst I make the chosen project each month... or if you wish you can craft along with me!  I find that many people like to just watch the first time, and then later they come back and make the project on the second watch. 

Each month I choose a different theme, and this month, as it is October, I have chosen to feature a "Breast Cancer Awareness" theme.  So you'll be seeing a lot of pink and you'll see me talking about Breast Cancer research and how important it is that we keep this in mind.  

So if you are free, I would love you to watch our video next Saturday, 28th October @ 2pm (Sydney time). Or you are welcome to watch the replay!  Here is the link to the video:

Also I am going to be donating to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) as follows:

• 10% of all orders received from now until the end of this month. 
• $5 for every tutorial pdfs sold (Tutorial pdfs are $15 each, and will be available after the public CraftAlong event)

For those that placed orders over $60 with me last month (September) I have mailed each of you a supply pack for the items you will need to make your card. They should arrive in the next couple of days. 

If you did not receive a supply pack then I have listed some items below that you will need to make the project:

• Basic White for cardbase (preferably thick) measured to 21cm x 14.8cm
• Bubble Bath cardstock measured to 10cm x 14.3cm
• A piece of pink and white DSP (I used a piece from the Delightfully Eclectic DSP)
• 4 Strips of Silver Glimmer paper paper measured to approximately 7mm (1/4") wide x 10cm long
• 1 scrap of Silver Snowflake Magic DSP to cut 2" square.  You could also use silver foil or even pink or white cardstock
• 1 scrap of Basic White to cut small banner for sentiment
• 14cm length of Bubble Bath ribbon
• Embellishments of choice. I used the Berry Burst sequins from the Sequin trio pack

Of course you are welcome to substitute any items as necessary. 

I used the Stylish Shapes dies (the square and the banner)

I stamped my sentiment with Berry Burst ink but you can use any pink of your choice

As for sentiments this is up to you but suggestions would include "Thinking of you", "You're in my thoughts" or something simple like "For you".  I used the "Thinking of you" from the Season of Chic stamp set. 

I know you will love this project and Im really looking forward to making it with you! 

See you then!

This October Joining promotion is SUPER GOOD!

 

This year Stampin'Up is celebrating 35 years in business. Thats a seriously long time!  I've had the pleasure of being a Stampin'Up demonstrator for 17 years, and I just love it.  I highly recommend it to you! 

And of course you cant let a big number like that go to waste!  So to celebrate, SU is offering an amazing joining deal and there are two options:

Option 1: Join Stampin'Up between now and the end of October and you will receive 35% OFF the price of the Demonstrator starter kit.  That means the kit is $109.85 instead of $169.  You still receive $235 worth of products, and you can choose any SU products that you like, up to the $235 worth of value.  

Option 2: Join Stampin'Up between now and the end of October and get 35% extra value you in your Demonstrator Starter kit. In this instance you pay the regular price of $169 but instead of getting $235 worth of value, you can choose up to $317.25 worth!

In both cases you will also receive FREE access to our virtual Onstage event - which is Stampin' Up's fabulous day of training and stamping - to be held on the 11th November.   You can take part on your computer at home and its a fantastic day of fun and creating. 

As a demonstrator you will receive a discount on all your products as long as you are a demonstrator (a minimum of 20% off).  Not to mention the opportunity to be part of a fabulous creative community. 

Many times I have heard people say that they joined for the discount... but they stay for the community.
