Stamping with Cindy Piggott

A Birthday Gift for me From Stampin' Up! FREE Stuff for you too!

So this is my birthday month and it is just one more fantastic reason to be a demonstrator!  During your birthday month Stampin' Up! gives demonstrators an extra 15% off any item in the catalogue.  I have no idea what I want to use that 15% off on as I have just about everything in the book. 

So this is what I was thinking, why don't I ask my wonderful customers for a suggestion.  I will put all those people that respond in a draw and pick one lucky person to win some free product.  Who knows, that FREE product might just be the thing you suggested I buy.  MMM....Now that might be interesting.  So get your suggestions to me and remember, I have been doing this for over 5 years so I have a LOT of product, all of which I love! 

Now, if you would like to be spoiled rotten by Stampin' Up! too, the FREE Big Shot or $125.00 in FREE product has been extended until November 11th.  You don't want to miss this opportunity.

Let's talk about all the cool things Stampin' Up! does for their demonstrators.  Discounts, free magazines, free websites, discounts, free product, discounts, free product...you get the idea right? 

 

Looks what I have been working on.....

Yup!  Responsibility charts for the kids.  I got this idea from seeing it in a magazine recently and I thought, wow! I could totally make that using MDS?  And I did.  I got them laminated at Staples using heavy duty laminate and wipe off markers.  Kids are loving them and so is mommy!  If you would like to order your own, message me with what colours and design you would like.  Currently selling these for $10.00 and I think they will make a wonderful Christmas gift for those little ones! 

Happy Birthday to You!

I made this card for a member of my downline team who recently celebrated her birthday.  These are not colours I would normally put together but I have to admit that I love how they turned out.  This is my very first time using this pennant.  I know, I know, bad me....I just find that I never have time to sit and "play" so this was a nice change.  The second picture is the inside of her card.  This is a challenge I have set for myself is that I need to make the inside of the card just as beautiful as the outside of the card.  What do you think?

If you haven't taken advantage of the FREE Big Shot deal, I mean, really?  what are you waiting for?  Messgae me today for more details!

Welcome Maxwell part 2

If you stopped in yesterday you saw the quick little album I made for a friend.  This is the card that we sent.  I know it does not match the album but I think this bear is just so cute.  I think Jack and Janet will enjoy it as well. 

There is only a few days left for the wonderful Big Shot Deal.  Don't miss this event as I am sure it will never occur again.

 

Welcome Maxwell

One of our very good friends Jack recently welcomed his very first grandson into the world.  As a little gift, I made this brag book/photo album for his wife.  We all know that proud grandparents need a brag book.  It is hard to see in this picture but the farmer is popped up.  I think it turned out okay.  I hope he enjoys it.  Be sure to stop by tomorrow to see the card. 

Christmas already?

This is a quick card I made for my recent downline meeting monthly swaps.  It is very simple but elegant.  I think the dazzling details really adds a lot but it is hard to see in this picture.  Did you hear that I am hosting my Annual Stamp-A-Stack again this year, with 2 dates to choose from.  Message me if you would like more details.  It is going to be a really great time!

Lolli anybody?

If you have been following the crafting world at all lately, you will know that the hotest thing out there are Lolli's.  I have been wanting to make them for a long time but never seem to get around to it until now...I made 2 of these cards for some very special people in my life.  I love the colour combination.  If you would like to learn how to make these lolli's let me know and we can schedule your very own in home workshop.

Did I mention I love my Team Members?

No really, I do! During the second weekend of September my team and I spent the weekend in Port Lambton at Windswept.  This is a cottage / retreat home owned by my upline and fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator Maureen Moran-McGrail.  We spent the weekend laughing, sharing and surprisingly enough we even got some stamping time in.  This is a view of the dock that was recently built across the road.  We had our lunch on this dock on Saturday and it was truly breathe taking.  Attached are a few more pictures of my team members creating up a storm.  We are really hoping to make this a yearly event because not all of my team was able to attend.  I am grateful for all the members of my team and I am so glad to have them part of my life.  We were very honoured to have 2 of my friends from London also join us for the weekend.  Thanks Anne and Chris for coming all the way from London to be with us.  During this weekend many of the ladies were able to get some of the to do things off their list, some of us spent too much time talking and laughing.  Chris and I were working on a project and Chris challenged me to finish the project and have it posted on my blog within a week.  Well I didn't meet that challenge but I will tell you that I am waiting for my "bling" to arrive and I will be posting a picture of the finished project on my blog.  I am so excited to share it with you.  I have included a picture of all of us right before we left on Sunday afternoon.  I just wanted to thanks all the incredible ladies on my team for spending the weekend with me, I had a blast and can't wait to do this again next year.  Love you guys lots!

Thanks so much!

I was asked to make some thank you card gift holders for the summer students in the Eastern Region.  I knew exactly what I wanted to do...I had 12 of them to make at a very last minute so I kept them kinda plain.  The Early Espresso's were for the females and the Night of Navy's were for the males.  Hope you enjoy them...great for all year round....
