Christmas Newsletter

Beat the Christmas rush.

Have you started your Christmas shopping?  There's less than 6 weeks until Christmas day and I have no doubt that it will go as quickly as it always does!

Why not purchase Stampin' Up! products for friends and family?  Male or female, young or old there is something to suit everyone.  If you're not sure what to buy then why not give a gift certificate?  Let them choose what they'd like. 

Not sure what to give your child's teacher or preschool teacher for Christmas?  How about a stamp set?  As a teacher myself I know how many of them are scrapbookers or stampers!  Always stuck with what to buy your Secret Santa or Kris Kringle at home or work?  We have stamp sets and product that can cater to any budget. 

How about yourself?  Have you been asked what you'd like this year? Why not let me hold a wish list for you.  Your family and friends can then contact me to purchase something off the list.

Whilst orders will be shipped until mid December why not take the pressure off and  beat the rush by placing your order now. You can have it wrapped (we sell gorgeous white wrapping paper for stamping on) and under the tree early.

Tips & Techniques

If you're inking up a large stamp using different coloured Stampin' Write® Markers and the first colour is beginning to dry, simply breath on them to put some moisture back onto the image.

Want to save on postage?

If you live local to me and can collect your order read on for a way to reduce postage. Do you sometimes just need to order a pack of cardstock or a snail refill but can't justify the $5.95 postage?  I place a local order on the 7th of each month. If the combined order totals over $120 then postage will be reduced to 5%. If the combined total is less than $120 then the $5.95 postage will be divided between the number of customers ordering.

Each month's newsletter will remind you of the upcoming order date.
