INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 10 -

Hello and welcome everyone to the next INKspired blog hop which happens to be No. 10. You may have hopped across from the delightful Marlene Goulder's blog and I am sure that her card was amazing. Please do take the time to hop around all the blogs as everyone does a fantastic job. Comments are always appreciated and we love to receive them. 
Special thank you to Di & Darrell for letting me use their computer systems to get my blog uploaded for this week as my computer decided to die today(Saturday)..I was loving all the computer monitor screens and having everything opened at once

Here is the sketch that Teneale has given us for No. 10



I wasn't sure what to do with the star but had a few ideas and this is what I have come up with. I am loving the new Occasions catalogue, hope you are as well and so excited as its SAB time, so for every $90 you spend you get to choose something free from the SAB catalogue. How good is that!!
I wanted to use the Blendabilities using Crumbcake cardstock- embossed the flower in white then coloured with Melon Mambo & Daffodil Delight and added some white gel dots to the centre. Let me know what you think?

INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 9 -

Baby & Mum & another baby in her pouch
Hello and welcome to my blog for 2015. 

Hope you had a safe and happy christmas and new year. You may have hopped across from the lovely Louise Sharp. Thank you for joining our blog hop and please  take the time to hop around and see all the wonderful cards that have been made by these talented women.
I thought I would start off with a pic of the kangaroos that are to be found close to our house most days - we haven't seen the baby in the pouch yet! A few more pics at the end.

Here is the sketch that Teneale has given us to start 2015 off  with, looks simple but...... I was finding it hard to choose a stampset to go with it. 
Had the colour palette in mind but too many new stamps to choose from...
Perhaps another rum ball will help..love christmas n all the treats that are made.


Now where to start......Decided against a stampset. 
Instead used the beautiful DSP - Painted Bloom from the new Occasions catalogue, together with the new embossing folder Spring Flowers. Cut squares of DSP 3.2cm and sponged them with rose red ink and attached to squares of rose red cardstock 3.5cm that were sponged as well, then popped them up on the card with some dimensionals.


Thank you for stopping by. 

It is now onto the lovely Narelle Macey


I think they have had an argument! Front view of mum's big pouch

Baby now staying close to mum

Three Easy ways to get Free product during Sale-A-Bration



OMG I am so excited about Sale-A-Bration (SAB) commencing today. There are so many gorgeous things available. 
On the right hand sidebar are the SAB & the Occasions catalogues that you can look at now whilst waiting for yours to arrive.

 If you would like to receive a copy (Australia only) drop me a line at mareescards@gmail.com or
 contact me on 0400 883 897

Three easy ways to get free product are:

1. Shop and for every $90.00 you spend you get to select a free item from the SAB brochure. How easy is that!

2. This is a fantastic time to join as a demonstrator for just $169. and you get extra free product, how good is that! You can also join us at  Convention on the Gold Coast this year where we have three fun filled days of learning, having fun, talking,laughing, getting free product (that is so good) and Shelli and her team join us. It is amazing and you meet so many wonderful people that love Stampin' Up as much as we do.

3. You can host a party and receive an extra $40 to spend on any products with a qualifying party (that is one that has $400. in sales minimum)
If you would like to book a party let me know.





The new Occasions Catalogue has commenced today as well. Same deal, if you would like a copy , let me know. Stay tuned for some samples coming soon.

I have left the Holiday Catalogue on my sidebar as there are Returning favourites that are staying with us (see page 49) of the Occasions  where it says what they are. You can then go to the holiday catalogue and see pictures of them.



Off to finish some cards, and don't forget our

INKspired Sketch Blog hop
recommences this Sunday, 11th January.

Thanks for stopping by,
until next time
