Celebrate and Hold on To Hope

Celebrate and Hold on To Hope. It is that time again! Time for another Inspire.Create.Challenge and this time it is a Theme challenge. What is the theme? Celebration. Why? Because we are celebrating our anniversary!

Celebrate Hold on To Hope

All the Design Team are incredibly excited about this, so what better Celebration than to have Celebration as our Theme. Please take a look at the incredible projects that everyone has come up with. I took a sneak peek when I added my image and link. I was late submitting them, not for the first time. But this meant I could see what everyone has made.

 

It has been super busy at Old Stables Crafts HQ as I have been cutting up paper and ribbon for my Autumn/Winter Catalogue Shares. I love doing them, but the ribbon in particular takes a long time to do. But they all got dropped off at the Post Office earlier this week. We only have a very small sub-Post Office, so I try to go at a quiet time. By the time I let there was a queue! Fortunately I am getting to know the guy who runs it, so we now have a system to keep things going quickly.

Anyway. Enough chit-chat. The project is really not too complicated, although there is some die-cutting. The colours were chosen simply because I have too many Pacific Point mats cut, but I really like how it came out. Our Parish Church is St Mary’s, so the blue is perfect. As we start to think about Harvest Festival, Celebration seems right too. Whatever your personal beliefs, we should find time to celebrate the World around us.

Now I must go and start work on the next Challenge!

If your order is over £25 (plus P&P), please use the Hostess Code. For every £30 you spend in one order AND use the Host Code, you will earn a Sunflower Reward. Spend £60 in one order and earn 2 Sunflower Rewards. Earn 10 Sunflower Rewards and you can choose £30 of product of your choice. Full details are on the Hostess Code Club Page. This month’s Host Code is:

Make sure to use the Code to share in the Hostess Rewards for this month AND become a VIP as well as earning Sunflower Rewards. If your order is over £150 (plus P&P), please don’t use the Hostess Code as you will get to pick your own rewards, but don’t worry, you will still become a VIP Reward Member.

Get Discounted Products that YOU Choose!

The Starter Kit is ALWAYS the best deal in the Catalogue and great value at just £99 for your choice of £130 of products (with no additional P&P). Once you are a Member of this great Family, you get a minimum of 20% net discount on your future purchases. You also get income from sales you make to other people if you want to use this as a business, like me; Win,Win Right? Just click on the picture to join the Team.

I am being realistic and we have reset my Personal Bests for during this time in my life. But each week back at the gym is increasing those Personal Bests, which is great for the ego. It's all about being realistic.
