A Pop of Pink Club Gift Notebook from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Good morning lovelies and a very Happy Monday to you all.

How has your weekend been? I have started a new Stitch Along project with Lakeside Needlecraft and we received the first chart for the project border on Friday. I lost many hours this weekend to stitching and all the loveliness of this exclusive fantasy SAL.  I am starting another one on Wednesday to follow on from my 6 month Owl SAL so I am going to be super busy stitching wise. 

My craft project share for the day are these little notebooks I have made for my lovely Hostess Club members. These little personalised notebooks will be slipped in with my ladies June orders.

I found the little black notebooks in Tiger on a recent trip across the water to Whiteley Village and I liberated the pencils (which I have covered in washi tape) from a well known furniture store (I got every member of my family to use a pencil during our trip! I couldn't resist as they were a perfect size to accompany my little books).

I love these Pop of Pink Designer Series Papers which I partnered with the Pop of Pink Washi Tapes. I added the sweetheart punch cut out and a personalised name on each stamped with the Labeller Alphabet stamp set. To finish I added sparkly sequins. 

I love these Pop of Pink papers. They are great for any occasion and some of the designs are lovely and subtle while others are bright and bold.

Just to finish my creative share for today I have my finished Owl Stitch Along project to share. I posted a few of my owls along the way. Here are all twelve together. I used my Grandma's tin of threads she gave me a while back. I loved the happy and bright colours. I am doing a new project kicking off on Wednesday which is along the same lines but with frogs instead of the owls.

Sale-A-Bration 2016 New Team Member Gifts from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Morning crafters.

I've been busy creating my little business supply packs and gifts for the new team members who have joined my Inkin' Owls team during Sale-A-Bration so far. I joined Stampin' Up! during Sale-A-Bration 6 years ago and wouldn't look back. I love being involved with the company and have loved seeing my crafting skill and ability change and evolve over the time I've been with Stampin' Up!

This year you can sign up with Stampin' Up! for the usual starter kit price of £99. For that you can choose £160 of current product from either the main or the Spring Summer catalogue. It really is such a great time to sign up- such great value for money. And don't forget you will then benefit from an ongoing 20% discount on all future purchases as a Demonstrator. The great thing about being involved with Stampin' Up! is you can grow your business to a level that suits you. So if joining just for the discount is what you fancy, that is fine. But you can grow a great and profitable business also if that is the opportunity you are looking for.

Can you spot the theme with my team member packs? We are the Inkin' Owls after all.....

Alongside the little packs of crafty goodies I give my new team members I also put together a little business pack of ideas on how to grow your business and get started. 

I love my little Pink Owl labels. She is even holding an envelope (we can assume with a handmade card inside!).

Here is a closer look at the contents of the pack including these adorable little owl post in notes with a matching covered notepad.

For more information please have a read through the info on the 'Join My Team' tab above. Or drop me a line on poulton_sarah@yahoo.co.uk or 01983 609249 to ask any questions. I'd love to welcome you to the Inkin' Owls and put one of my team packs in the post to you today ;0)

A Butterfly Basics Hostess Gift from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Good morning crafty friends.

I'm a bit later with my posting than normal this week. We returned from a lovely week away to France at the weekend so fitting in crafting amid washing and unpacking proved a little challenging. But I did manage to sneak an hour for creating last night. I have a Stampin' Up! crafty party this week and wanted to make something special for my Hostess. 

I found a pack of these little notebooks in my 'crafty inspiration' drawer full of things I will get round to making eventually. I thought they would make perfect gifts for upcoming new catalogue party hostesses.

I used my Butterfly Basics stamp set with the Butterfly Framelits (available together as a fantastic bundle for a 15% saving) to create the background and butterfly feature. For the background I stamped the flower from Butterfly Basics in Versamark and heat embossed with White Stampin' Emboss powder. I then stamped the small butterflies in Watermelon Wonder ink.

I added the white film frame cut with the On Film Framelits and the larger butterfly cut with my Butterfly Framelits. To finish I added an In Color Blossom in Mint Macaron and Itty Bitty Flowers punched with the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack from Mint Macaron Cardstock (I added a White Candy Dot for the centre of the flower).

I have added a special Stampin' Up! pen to the gift and will set about designing a gift bag this evening.

If you would like to host your own Stampin' Up! party I would love to come and demo for you and your friends and family. I always make a gift for all my hostesses on top of the fab product freebies you will receive from Stampin' Up! themselves. I also provide all materials for you and your attendees to complete a stamping project aimed at all levels of experience from a new stamper through to the more experienced crafter.

Hostess Club Adventure Awaits Notebooks from Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Good morning crafters.

Its nearly the weekend. Hope you have lots of craftiness planned. I am hoping for a big Project Life catch up. Going to spend some time this evening printing pictures ready for adding to my album.

My crafty share today is a project I made for my hostess club members to accompany their February orders. I absolutely adore the Adventure Bound Paper Stack and Adventure Awaits Stamp Set (also available together as a bundle) and wanted to put them together to make these pocket sized notebooks.

This one is my favourite of my creations. I find any stamp against this brick design looks like fancy graffiti. I just love the effect.

I also had some issues with a very juicy White Craft Pad which gave this large design a more watery effect than I had intended. But I felt it matched the wave papers in the background.

I accessorised each of the 10 notebooks I created with complimentary coloured Candy Dots.

Painted Blooms Notebook from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Good morning crafty friends and a very Happy Weekend to you!

I'm posting a day later than usual. I got a bit sidetracked yesterday morning placing the order for Thursdays's fab Sale-A-Bration party and I completely forgot to finish writing today's post. So I am having a bloggy catch up while watching Downton Abbey (how did I miss watching this before? I am totally hooked!).

So here is today's crafty share a bit later than anticipated. This is the gift I made as a thank you for my January party hostesses (personalised for each hostess). I always like to make a handmade thank you on top of the amazing benefits offered by Stampin' Up! 

I made this notebook by covering an A4 journal with some gorgeous (but sadly retired) patterned Kraft cardstock (you can still purchase plain Kraft in the catalogue and stamp a design yourself). I then cut floral designs from the gorgeous (and hugely popular amongst my customers this month) Painted Blooms Designer Series Paper and layered over an Elegant Eggplant label cut using the Apothecary Accents Framelits.

I personalised the label with letters cut from Silver Glimmer Paper using my Little Letters Thinlits Dies.

If you would like to book your own crafty party for you and your friends and family and receive a special handmade gift from me as well as fantastic Sale-A-Bration and Hostess freebies from Stampin' Up! then please get in touch on poulton_sarah@yahoo.co.uk or 01983 609249. I have dates available through February and March  and would love to come and show you Stampin' Up!'s fantastic range of craft supplies.
