This Month's Workshop Cards

Hi Everyone

Just before I get into the cards I have to show you today, I just wanted to tell you that the Papercraft Roadshow in Perth has been cancelled :( Hopefully it will happen next year and we will get the chance to be involved again :)


Ok, now for some cards. I have had a busy month for workshops this month and consequently I have done the same cards for all the workshops. I do have one workshop to go this month but hopefully the attendees won't mind me spoiling the surprise if they happen to pop in here :)


So the first one is one that I intended to be a masculine card as I get a lot of requests for these.

It does use a floral set but I think with the colours I have used it can still be used for a male.

Stamp Sets: Fifth Avenue Floral, Vintage Labels (SAB Set)

Cardstock: Pacific Point, Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White

Accessories: Pacific Point Ink, Baja Breeze Ink, Kiwi Kiss Ink, Whisper White Ink, Pacific Point 5/8" Striped Grosgrain, Scallop Circle Punch, 3/4 " circle punch

The next card is so simple, using a set that I use a lot but still really appeals to me. It is a Gatefold Card and with a change of colour scheme could easily pass for any age or gender.

Stamp Sets: Baroque Motifs, Big Bold Birthday, Whimsical Words (SAB Set)

Cardstock: Kraft, Ridinghood Red, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White

Accessories: Ridinghood Red Ink, Pretty in Pink Ink, Ridinghood Red Taffeta, Wide Oval Punch

Here is another picture which shows you how the Gatefold opens



That's it for me for now. I will be back in the next week or so with some sneak peeks of some of the goodies in the new catalogue. Only 15 days to go!!!!


Enjoy the rest of your week everyone

Check this out!!

I just had to come on and show you the gorgeous card my very talented Sister-in-Law, Wendy made for my birthday! It took me a while to realise that the shoes weren't stamps and that she had actually hand drawn them!! Even the decorations around the words are hand drawn!! How clever is that??!!! I love it!

Back and Refreshed!!

Well sort of!! Had a lovely child freeweek in Bali, just got back last night. Had a wonderful time, though I missed the kids terribly. Of course now we are home and back into the family routine I am exhausted all over again!!
This month is REALLY busy for me so I can't promise many new cards but I will do my best to touch base every now and again.

Just rolled out today, I have a new blog on my Stampin Up Webpage www.lisajansen.stampinup.net All the posts from this blog will feed to there so you can go to either to read what is going on !
Oh and don't forget that the countdown is on to the launch of the Autumn/Winter Mini.

Enjoy the rest of your week :)

Perth Papercrafts Roadshow

I am excited to announce that I will be at the Papercrafts Roadshow in Perth on Sunday 28th March. The Roadshow is a new kind of craft fair that will have live demonstrations and be televised on TV!!

I will be manning a stall along with two of my fellow demonstrators, so come and say hello!

Check out http://www.papercraftsroadshow.com/ for more information

The Perfect Career!

I found this yesterday and thought it was a great description of what it is like to be a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!!

A woman walked into the office of the personnel manager of a large company and said:
“I’ve decided to come and work for your company, but there are a few things I feel you should be aware of before I start. First of all, I will only be working a couple of days a week and when I do come in, it’ll only be for about three hours at a time.”
“If I want to make plans to go somewhere with my family during such times as Christmas, New Year, Easter or school holidays I will do so without anyone asking me questions about it and if some family difficulty arises, I will arrange for postponement of my work until I can get back to it.”
“As a salesperson for this company, I will do the best job I can, but I expect the company to provide all the incentives and awards needed to encourage my customers to buy our products. Please be sure the incentives and awards are changed on a regular basis to keep up the interest and motivation.”
“With regards to compensation, I would like a percentage of everything I sell. Let’s say $30 or more per hour, plus bonuses if I do a better than average job. I also expect you to offer me a variety of awards such as gifts and prizes just for doing my job.”
“Oh, and by the way; if I decide to become a manager with your company, I will expect additional bonuses paid to me on my personal sales and the sales of all people connected to me.”
By now the personnel manager was in convulsions of laughter but managed to say, “I don’t know where you are from lady, but there is no such job in the world as the one you’ve just described!”
“Well, I beg to differ”, the woman said, “my friend has just joined party plan and that is exactly the kind of job she has!”
