I am excited to announce that the new 2009/2010 Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalogue will be released on 1st April and I was thrilled to get my grubby hands on a copy yesterday, and have been drooling over it ever since (very sad I know)!
The new catalogue has seen a sad farewell to many much loved sets and all the patterned papers, but you can still buy any outgoing products, while stocks last, until 31st March - see link to retired list on left hand side.
By losing so many stamp sets and papers, we are gaining the introduction of a fantastic new range, which has brought us pretty much in line with our friends in the U.S. - Stampin' Up! has been such an enormous success here in Australia that it took the U.S. founders by surprise, but they have listened and are now making most of the new releases available here at the same time as they get them over there, which is very exciting!
To celebrate this new release, I will be holding a couple of free 'open houses' so that you can be one of the first to see the new catalogue with all the yummy new products in. You will also be able to make a quick project incorporating one of the new stamp sets, new patterned paper ranges and the new 'in-colour' papers and inks.
These will be very informal get-togethers, with tea, coffee and cake provided and everyone attending will also get the chance to win a stamp set valued at over $40.
Wednesday 1st April 10.00am - 2.00pm
Saturday 4th April 10.00am - 2.00pm
These will be at my home in Parkerville, so please call for details - you will find my details below or in the link on the left hand side of the blog.
I will be doing a quick introductory presentation at 10.30am and 12.30pm both days, so it would be best if you could coincide your visits with one of these times, but if that's not possible you are still more than welcome to come along at any time between 10 and 2.
If you can't make it on one of these days but would like to arrange an informal one-on-one get together or a party, please give me a call and we can arrange something separately.
I hope you can make it and I look forward to seeing you soon.
Lynne
