August Newsletter

Hello, 

I am really looking forward to seeing many of you over the next few weeks at up coming Craft Shows, or at regular classes or at my Holiday Catalogue Launch - or maybe at all of them!!!


The Stampin' Up! year finishes on 30th September and I have lots of activities planned before our year comes to an end - including the launch of the 2016 Holiday Catalogue.

(This is my favourite catty of the year - you know me - I LOVE Christmas!)


First activity up is the Wellington Paper Arts & Crafts Show this coming weekend. 

The Show is a special event for me, as in 2013 when I decided to run being a Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrator as a full-time business, the Wellington Paper Arts and Crafts Show was my launch event.
I have lots of crafty friends, customers and newsletter recipients that I have first met at the these Shows - and I love catching up with the people who attend the show! 
See below for details. I hope to see many of you on Saturday or Sunday.


I am still working hard towards earning the Annual Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip before the end of September. Roy and I had an amazing time on the Mediterranean Cruise earlier this year and I hope to be able to earn the trip to Thailand. If I do, it won't be Roy who joins me, but our daughter Beth who helps me at so many of my Stampin' Up! events. I certainly want to thank all my team and customers and family for the ongoing support I am given.


To help me reach that goal, I have put together some GREAT SPECIALS! These are my own specials not from Stampin' Up! so are only available from me - creativeJax. You can order these from me at events over the next few weeks or contact me directly if you won't be able to get to any of the events. The details are below.


Contact me to order or if you'd like more info.

  • August Limited Release Bundle - Thoughtful Branches
  • August/Septemebr Specials from CreativeJax

Fast Fuse
Perfectly Wrapped

I've had a few queries about Fast Fuse - one of Stampin' Up!'s adhesives.

This adhesive replaced the 'red sticky double sided tape' we previously stocked. 
It is a great adhesive and is suitable for use on cards and memory keeping as well as in 3D projects such as boxes. But it does take a little practice to get use to it as it requires a different application technique than our other adhesives.

So I've got two videos for you to watch which have lots of useful tips.

The first is the video released by Stampin' Up! in June last year when the Fast Fuse made it's debut.

 The second is a recently released video by
If you click on her name above, you will be taken to the South Pacific Stampin' Up! page and see a technique tip that has revolutionised the way I use Fast Fuse personally!
