I’m hope you are having a lovely Easter weekend.  I got to spend last night stamping with one of my team members & friend.  I spend the entire night (till 2am actually) finally putting ink to a very cute stamp set – “Everybunny”.  It’s so cute and I wanted to use it on some last minute Easter goodies.  We’re having brunch at my place this year, so I made some simple Chocoalte Sliders for everyone – boy bunny for the boys and girl bunny for the girls!

I had a couple of bunnies left over so also make a quick little bunny garland for above the brunch table on Sunday.  I love the Baker’s Twine that’s used to hang the garland!   The picture isn’t the best as it’s hanging from my cupboards in my stamp room at the moment (you can click on the pic to make it bigger):

 Have a wonderful weekend “everybunny”!  And hope that the Easter Bunny finds you where ever you may be!

(All products shown are from Stampin’ Up!)

A big HELLO if anyone is still reading this much neglected Blog!   I defintely haven’t forgotten about you and I do think about you often  .  We have gotten back into a routine with school and sports and I’ve been a little busy preparing for our upcoming Retreat on the 23rd of March.  I can’t believe this will be our 7th Weekend Stampin’ & Scrappin’ Retreat!  I can’t wait, they are always heaps of fun!

Sale A Bration is still running for another month until March 31st.  I thought I’d pop in to remind you that if you are thinking of joining Stampin’ Up! now, is the most perfect time!  Or if you have been a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator before, now is the perfect time to re join!

I was thinking about the fact that next month is my 6 year anniversary of being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator.  I have so much to be grateful for, as Stampin’ Up! for me has been so much more than just stamping supplies.. I have gained so much more than I could ever have imagined when I first joined.  I thought I’d join to run a few classes with some friends and buy the great Stampin Up! products cheaper… I never thought I’d make an income from this.  I never imagined how many amazing people I would meet and get to call my friends.  I never imagined how important the “me time” would be – a fantastic way to maintain some identity with the demands of 4 little children at home.

I am very blessed to have Stampin’ Up! in my life and I would love to share this with you, it’s really is the best time to join!

Why?

1.  $40 off the Starter Kit!  So you’ll get $610 worth of products (most that you can choose for yourself) for just $$249!  Amazing right!  Check out what’s in the starter kit:

2.  PLUS you will get to choose an EXTRA set of stamps to the value of $79.95 for FREE!

3.  Stampin Up! have just reduced the Quarterly sale requirements and if you join now, you’ll have until June 30th to meet your first one!  EASY!

4.  An all new Stampin’ Start Program means that you can not only earn free stamps and cash bonus but also the cost of your starter kit back!

And of course by joining my team of demonstrators you’ll also have unlimited help via phone, email, internet, face to face etc!  However you prefer!  You may like to join to build a business, run classes etc OR you may like to join Stampin Up! for hobby purposes, to buy your supplies cheaper or to be a part of this fantastic company, that really is much more than just stamps and ink.

 Well I can hardly believe that I haven’t posted since October!  Where did that time go?  We took a family holiday to Fiji, in conjunction to the Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip.  I never did get to post about the wonderful time Stampin’ Up! treated us to.  I might have to go a re cap at some time.  Christmas came and went so quickly and tomorrow I’m taking my big girl off to her first day of high school and my baby off to grade 1!
