My Mum had to falls within 24 hours and was put into hospital. She also had a UTI (urinary tract infection) and fluid in her lungs and also has a bad heart and diabetes. She also has early dementia and my family and I have been trying to get her into an aged care nursing home for her appropriate care as I have looked after her for almost 8 years and I am now physically and mentally drained and unable to care for her anymore. As soon as I can sort all this out for my Mum I am hoping to get back into SU and my crafting. Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a safe and healthy new year.
In the meantime if you would like to order from me please use my Dec 2020 Host Code…
Wow, I can’t believe my baby boy has turned 20 today… It seems like yesterday I was put in hospital for 10 weeks.. (dangerously high blood pressure) and still had to have an emergency caesarian a moth early, so We Both could Survived.
I love you so much and I am very proud to be your Mum.

One of my favourite things about being a Stampin’ Up demonstrator is the ability to see and play with NEW products before a new catalogues goes live. The NEW catalogues goes live January 5, 2021. It also means the start of Sale-A-Bration, which is Stampin’ Up!’s biggest Sale of the year. If you would like a hard copy of the new catalogues, and you do not currently have a demonstrator, I would be happy to send them to you. Message or email me your details and I will post the catalogues to you when they are available… The catalogues will be available mid-December. If you would like to get the PDF’s for the new catalogues, you can simply go to my Website and join my team 😁
I was in Stampin’ for about 4 years. After an unforeseen 8 year break… I just had to come back. Since rejoining Stampin’ Up last year, in October 2019, too long… I am proud and happy to receive my first 3 badges…
If I didn’t have to leave for 8 years, I would have been in SU for about 12 years. A lot has changed and a lot still the same. One of which I recall is that the Stampin’ Up company is still the same and the demonstrators are still friendly, caring and so helpful to other demonstrators, so I Thank You All for your support.
When I was in SU the first time, I achieved to Senior Supervisor, Not sure what that is called now, still learning all the new stuff that’s changed, but I am hoping to be able to reach that goal again some day!
This is my first Quite Curvy Celebrations Card that I have made. I have used Real Red Cardstock for the card base. Then I placed Brass Foil Paper on the card and put Dimensionals on the back of the Whisper White Cardstock and placed it on top of the Brass Foil paper.
I used one of the Curvy Dies to do the border. I Stamped the leaves and cut them out with the Curvy Dies and coloured them with Stampin’ Up Blends. Stamped the 3 Birds and coloured them with Blends and glued them to the leave, then place Dimensionals on the back of them and placed them on the Whisper White Cardstock. I used Memento Black Ink for the sentiment.
I stamped the Floral stamp and coloured it with Blends, cut it out with the Die and placed Dimensionals on the back and placed it on the Whisper White Cardstock I placed inside my card.
Here is another Christmas Card I’ve made using Peaceful Boughs Bundle.
I embossed the Brass Foil Paper using the Winter Snow Embossing Folder and place the centiment onto Red Velvet Paper over the top of my Sheer Real Red Ribbon, which I just tied into a double knot.
I then cut out my stamped images from the Peaceful Boughs Dies and used Dimensionals and Glue to place them on my card.
