Mid-August Newsletter

Hi 

Wow it's August already - doesn't time fly when you are having fun - and I sure have had plenty of fun things going on with creativeJax generally, and Stampin' Up! in particular.

In this newsletter you can read about - 
  • August Big Shot Promotion
  • Up-coming Classes & Events
  • Stampin Up! Catalogues
  • Holiday Catalogue Drop-In Launch
  • Re-Inking your Stampin' Up! ink pads

August Big Shot Promotion ~ 1-31 August

Stampin' Up! has a fantastic Big Shot promotion this month.

When you purchase a Big Shot, you get one of five exclusive bundles for free - that is up to $130 worth of product free!

You choose which one you get for free - but you can also purchase any of the others too. These are one-time only exclusives and are only available as a bundle during August so you don't want to miss the deal. 

And if you already have a Big Shot, you can still purchase one or more of these designated bundles at an amazing 15% off what you would pay if you purchased them separately - a great bargain.

You can see the available bundles and find out more information by ...


Up-Coming Classes

It's one of my favourite weeks of the month this week - Class Week.

The cards both feature the use of the Big Shot and either the 2013-2015 or 2014-2016 In-Colors. We will also be using the two step stamping technique with some of the new photopolymer stamps sets.

Places are limited and must be booked - check my Blog for more details

Tuesday 19 Aug:       7pm - 9.15pm

Wednesday 20 Aug:     9.30am - 11.45am

Thursday 21 Aug:          9.30am - 11.45am

Thursday 21 Aug:    7pm - 9.15pm 

I do have a couple of places left so if you are free this week give me a text/call (027 348 3901) or send me an email (jackie@creativejax.co.nz)

Holiday Catalogue Launch

While I'm still drooling over the new Annual Catalogue, the release of the 2014 Holiday Catalogue is just around the corner.

The Holiday Catalogue goes live on 28 August - just over a week away! 
As demonstrators we have access to the catalogue for about a month before they go live and I have already placed an order. I was very excited when the courier man made a delivery on Friday!

I will be holding a
"Drop-In and Meet the Catalogue" Launch on Wednesday 27 August. 

Please feel free to drop in anytime between 1pm and 8pm to receive your new catalogue and view a selection of new products and samples. 

As addition to viewing products from the Holiday Catalogue, I will have the Big Shot and accessories available to try before the Big Shot Promotion ends on 31 August.

I must admit that Beth and I had Christmas Carols playing on Friday evening as we made our first projects with the beautiful new products - and it was only the beginning of August!

I would love to see you on the 27th - please drop me an email or text if you are going to be able to call in. 

Remember there are some products still available to order from last year's Holiday Catalogue on the Carryover list. These products are only available while stocks last until the 27 August - so if there is something on that list you are keen to purchase then time is running out. 

Re-Inking your Classic Stampin' Ink Pad

Our Classic Stampin' Ink Pads are formulated to work perfectly with our cardstock - of course they work great with other cardstock but when used together they produce superb stamped images.

 You may know that the pads in the Classic Stampin' Up! Pads were redesigned a couple of years ago to use a firm foam and they are more juicy than the older cloth covered pads. Both types of pad will last many years longer than the ink that is in them so it's important to know how to re-ink them. As the new pads are juicier they are likely to require re-inking more frequently than the older style.

The link below will take you to a YouTube video below shows how to re-ink both types of pads.

It is always a great idea to purchase the re-inker bottles when you get your pads - that way not only will you be ready to re-ink the pads when they need to be, but you will have the ink for all sorts of other uses too! 

The ink refill bottles are available individually for all exclusive Stampin' Up! colours or as sets of the colour collections. Refill bottles are also available for the range of other ink pads in the catalogue.

So if your images are not as dark as they used to be when you use your ink pad - it may be time to re-ink them. If you don't have any re-inker bottles you can purchase them online HERE or get in touch with me (jackie@creativejax.co.nz or 027 348 3901)

You can also Like/Follow creativeJax on Facebook and on Pinterest where I more regularly post updates and images.

If you would like to host a workshop at your place (or mine) I'd love to here from you. You will have a fun time with friends, get a handmade project as a gift from me, everyone gets to make something and you may earn free Stampin' Up! products as the hostess. Just drop me an email at jackie@creativejax.co.nz or give me a call/text at 027 348 3901 and we can arrange a Party time!

If you have any feedback or questions for me please email me at jackie@creativejax.co.nz

Until next time
