THE FIRST FABBY NEWS !
Best of 25 Years Stamp Sets
As part of Stampin Up!s 25-year anniversary celebration, they're bringing back some of our favourite stamp images from the last quarter century and combining them into five sets, which will be released one set per month, until October. Even better, along with some great classic images, each "Best of" set will also include a never-before-seen image!
Check back here monthly to download a flyer for a new Best of stamp set, and be sure to share it with your friends !
Some things to remember:

• All Best of stamp sets will include 3-5 images, including a never-before seen image, and will be priced at £13.95.
• While we are releasing just one Best of stamp set per month (with a new theme each month) until October, all of the Best of sets will be available until March 31, 2014.
• A new flyer will be released every month for each new Best of set.
• All Best of stamp sets are available in Clear-Mount only.

THE SECOND FABBY NEWS !
SINGLE STAMPS

A few months ago Stampin Up! did a survey asking what people thought of the idea of being able to buy single stamps instead of a whole set. The response was so positive that they experimented it with the North American Market.  As it was so successful that they decided to try it out in our market too!
From now until 31 August 2013 (or while supplies last) I am so excited to offer you five single-image stamps for you to choose from!
Details

• You can find the stamp item numbers on the flyer.
• These won't be sent in our typical cases or packaging; they'll be packaged in cello bags. If you'd like a case for your stamp, you can buy our Clear-Mount Stamp Cases that come in packs of four.
• This offer is available for clear-mount stamps only.
• The stamps won't come with a Clear-Mount Block, and you'll need to purchase a block separately if you don't already have one. The recommended block sizes can be found on the flyer.
• There's no limit on how many stamps you can purchase.
• These stamps are only available until 31 August 2013, so get them while you can!

Retiring ….

Not me !

This year's Stampin’ Up! Retiring List is due to be released this Friday 31st May, in anticipation of the new Main Catalogue reveal on 1st July. So if you have a Wish List, you need to WATCH THIS SPACE on Friday morning!

Products that are on the list (and drastically reduced), tend to sell-out extremely quickly, so please make sure that you get your orders in as soon as possible to avoid disappointment !

DON’T FORGET to quote the hostess code : MN96DVDA in your email subject line in order that you can be submitted into the draw to win MYSTERY HOSTESS of the month, and earn at LEAST £25 to spend on anything that you like out of the current catalogues !

(dependent upon the combined orders reaching a hostess qualifying workshop)

As you know, our designer papers change every year, so it is a given cert. that they will all retire.  Here’s a couple of layouts made using the Tea for Two papers – definitely one of my favourites from this years Spring/Summer catalogue.  Note the tag pocket made from doilies !

   

ALSO

Don’t forget, that if you are thinking of becoming a Demonstrator, or want to buy the starter kit to get £155 worth of products for just £99, then the current offer ends on 31st May !  So contact me as a matter of urgency !

Please accept my sincere apologies for any inconvenience this causes. While the online facility is not available, I will be happy to place your orders for you. Just call me or email me and I will be happy to help.

A little bit of Monica, Erica, Rita, Tina …. and a video !

I don’t know why, but Mambo Number 5 popped into my head while working on my This & That Journal ! So I did a google search for the lyrics, and can only think that its because I keep calling it ‘A Little Bit of This & That’ !  Anyway, the song is stuck in my head, and I’m ‘mambo-ing’ all over the place …

So yes, you’ve read right – I’ve started my journal. I decided in the end to do a journal of my favourite things as it covered base with a wealth of topics … my family, my friends, my favourite places, food, clothes, handbags etc. etc…. This led me on to thinking about completing a ‘mood journal/book’, or a special event journal as I have a couple of  special events coming up).  That then led me into thinking about when I was a little girl, and how I loved the now, old fashioned scrapbooks when I used to cellotape EVERYTHING into it … my friends daughters would all love to do something like this – so I can imagine a very expensive Christmas coming up !!  Thankfully, the bundles are on offer at the moment – 15% discount, so I am going to order a couple extra while the offer is on.

I now have a HUGE headache from all this thinking that I’ve been doing !

This & That Part 1

Anyway, these are the pages that I’ve completed to date, and I hope you like what I have done with them.  I chose to grunge this journal to within an inch of its life, but intend to make the next ones very pretty-pretty !

Once I work out how to edit the second video to shorten it, I’ll show you how I made the covers, in stages.

As always, if you would like to place an order, or if you have any questions or queries, please contact me on carole.bryson@gmail.com or 07747 465186
