Sunny Queensland .....Na its RAINING!!!!!

Hello All,

Well the day has finally arrived - Cheryl (and her granddaughter)and I flew up this morning. Our day started at 4am! as we stayed at Cheryl's brothers place at Macedon and our flight was at 6:55am. we got to the airport in plenty of time with time for McDs for breakfast. Then.... as we were about to go through security scanning Cheryl decided to take a photo of her granddaughter 'leaving for a holiday' and then Security yelled out and she was BUSTED - apparently you are not allowed to take photos where the security screens!! so she was made to delete the photo, and then when we went through they made me take off all my jewellery! Tomorrow we are off to Brisbane to the conference. Will keep you updated then.

IT'S TIME!!!

Well the day has finally arrived!

We said a final farewell to the 2007/2008 Idea Book & Catalogue last night with many of you emailing in final requests before they were gone forever! Thank you!

Thank you to the hostesses who came to my catalogue release night last Friday it was a fantastic evening. With lots of browsing and writing on our wish lists!!

Now for any of you that haven't had a peek at the new catalogue - there are two options - you can have a look on www.stampinup.com or you can contact me! and if you want to pick one up from my little stack of catalogues they will cost you $12.95 (no postage!!!)

I will be placing orders almost everyday for the next week or so. But do take advantage of the option to place a book order party - where if you give me an order over $300 (ex postage) Iwill give you the free hostess set and free merchandise! as I understand there are so many fantastic hostess sets in the new catalogue it will be had to choose if you only have the option of getting one of them!

Thanks again for your support.
