Tonight is a good night!

I had the best weekend with my open house and showing those who came along the new products from the Spring/Summer catalogue.
If you were not able to come along and would like a copy of the catalogue posted with the sale-a-bration leaflet then contact me and I will pop a copy in the post for you....


In my hallway are boxes ready for my guests

 One of the make and take stations

 One of the displays - see Saturday 12th January's post for how to make and blog hop with the Pootlers group!!


Maps for the make and take tables with special offers on the day!


More displays - see later blog post for how to get the box kit to make this lovely card and 3 others as well!!


Sweeties and post it notes and pens to go into the boxes and one of the displays showing the wooden butterfly elements free with sale-a-bration. More info on this at end of this post!


Invitations to past customers made with some of the new products.

So what was the open house all about?
Well it was to launch the new Spring Summer catalogue from Stampin' Up and also Sale-a-bration - this is a separate tiny brochure containing some fabulous items such as stamp sets, paper, ribbons and elements that you can only get hold of if you spend £45.00 during the Sale-a-bration period which is from now until the end of March. For every £45.00 you spend you can select one of the Sale-a-bration items for FREE! You can't buy them - so if you would like a catalogue and the little Sale-a-bration brochure contact me - or follow this link at the top of the page to SHOP - and hop to the joppy shop and look under 'Spring Summer catalogue' and 'Sale-a-bration.'

The second reason for holding the open house is to officially launch my 'make and take in a box' scheme which I have as a separate page to my blog and you can click to it by looking at the menu at the top of this blog and it shows all the current boxes that are available. These are great value and inspiration because you get the items you pay for and then some freebie items as make and takes to get you going as soon as your box is delivered. Give it a try!

Post it note Holder using Golden Honey Papers - updated imperial measurements for box included.

The Golden Honey Papers in their pristine black white and gold said 'office stationery ' to me and so I used them together with the Honey Bee stamp set and Detailed Bee dies to make some coasters, a gift box holding 6 notecards and envelopes, a post it note holder and a cute giant paperclip topper. I put the photo onto a Facebook page that is for Stampin' Up demonstrators today and was totally overwhelmed by the response and requests for instructions on how to make the post it note holder - so I have quickly put this post together and it is mostly a photo show of the instructions because that was the fastest way I could do it! To make this desktop holder you will need some basic black cardstock. The holder has been made to fit post it notes that measure 3 x 3 inches. I originally made it around the post it notes in and cut in centimetres - So I have taken the original box apart and measured it all and have put some photographs of the measurements and how to put it to

Joppy goes Blog Hoppy

Hello, I love that I can make a rhythm out of joppy and hoppy - its always a struggle thinking of a blog title! Welcome to anyone who has not visited my blog before, I have a fairly new blog, have not participated in the blog hop before and so its especially great to see you! I had a lovely open house last Saturday and invited some of my crafting friends to come and look at what the new Spring/Summer catalogue has to offer and I made some cards to display and the cards I have put up for the blog hop today I made with a stamp set featured on page 44. called Best Catch and co-ordinating Catch of the day thinlits dies. I haven't seen very much on the Internet or on Pinterest anywhere made with this set so I am especially pleased to show you this great set. There is one very special man in my life to whom I recently became engaged and he loves fishing so I thought this set would come in handy. Also he reliably informs me that the fish looked rather like salmon and tha

Playing with Different Coloured Circles

  I thought I would share with you another set of cards and technique that Learned recently on the Creative Card Retreat I attended. I am catching up with some of the presentations still and this tutorial came from one of the Creative team Jackie Bolhuis. These are the cards I made and the envelopes to match and you may just be able to see the inside decoration for the end card in the photograph! The cards look really striking in the new bright in-colours and you simply cut four circles in different graduating sizes using a circle punch - I used my layering circles dies. The you cut them in half on your trimmer. Then arrange. So this is how I layered up my half circles and then the photograph belo shows how I arranged them onto the card. Then simply add a sentiment to the card. The bright colours look great with black but what about trying pastels or a gradient of the same colour, or even glitter card - what about stitched circle dies? Lots and lots of variations and combinations with
