The new Summer Mini Catalogue has some awesome products. New punches; Butterfly and a large 1 – 3/4” circle, both with coordinating stamp sets. The large circle punches out circles the right size for the new Sweet Treat Cups, they are ideal for filling with lollies, or as a shaker card. I made up several cards using the Sweet Treat Cups and the coordinating stamp set “Something Sweet” for my open day. These cards were really fun to do!!

Southern Crafters Craft Show – Stadium Southland November 2009
This weekend Paula, Renee and myself had a combined Stampin’ Up! stall at this local twice yearly market. This is the 3rd time that Paula and I have had a Stampin’ Up! stall at the Stadium, and the 1st time that Renee has joined us. A big thank you to all of you who visited us, especially with the weather not being too flash.
The CD Jewel case photo albums were particularly popular, along with the candy case mice with the children.
As it was a Christmas Craft show, I decorated up a tree with tinsel and used it to display Stampin’ Up! cards for sale.
