Inventory Clearance Sale - selling fast!

Most of you will be aware of the Stampin' Up!® Inventory Clearance Sale* if you are on my email updates list.... it finishes on the 24th January, making way for Sale-a-Bration to start. Until then, there are some amazing discounts on certain stamp sets and accessories. Already, the Jumbo Outline Alphabet has sold out! If you had been deliberating over your wish list from the Inventory Clearance Sale, then get cracking! Once the items are sold out, they will be no more. Click on the link (by clicking your mouse on the words above that say "Stampin' Up! Inventory Clearance Sale") to see which stamp sets and accessories are on sale. Some items are 50% off! Email me ASAP to make sure you don't miss out.. cherylandrews@optusnet.com.au

*All stamps are square cut. Sold out sets will still be available for purchase from the 2009/2010 Idea Book and Catalogue as die cut at the full retail price.

I know it's been a while since I posted - you know that's not unusual for me! I hope your Christmas was wonderful, and that 2010 brings all the good things you've been wishing for!

These cans were covered in Designer Series paper and filled with yummies for the teacher! Some of you know I always make a special book of quotes for my kids teachers, but this particular teacher of my daughter's actually taught my son a few years ago! So he already has a teacher book. I made him a tin for his pens (the one in the background, using retired DSP from the 2008/2009 IB&C), and the one in the foreground uses Bella Bleu and Riding Hood Red Patterns DSP, plus Cholcolate Chip grosgrain ribbon, a Jumbo Brad (still available from the Spring Mini Catalaogue), and the Trendy Trees set stamped in Chocolate Chip, Sahara Sand, and rock'n'rolled in Riding Hood Red. Simple circle punching with the one and three quarter inch and the one and three eighths inch circle punches finish it all off! Very quick and easy, and resealable too! I just used a gravy tin (rinsed out of course!).
These letters I covered for my nieces, Jessica and Lauren for Christmas with the new Kaleidoscope DSP from the Summer Mini Catalogue. Other things I used here include:
Five Petal Flower Punch
Boho Blossoms Punch
Rhinestone Brads, Fire and Ice
Brocade Blue grosgrain ribbon
Certainly Celery twill (unavailable - but Certainly Celery grosgrain is just as nice)
Regal Rose grosgrain ribbon
So Saffron designer ribbon from the Dress Up Ribbon Originals pack
Crystal Effects
Pixie Pink, So Saffron, Brocade Blue, Gable Green, Regal Rose and Tempting Turquoise card stock
Great Friend stamp set - Butterfly image (currently unavailable) stamped in matching inks using the sponge daubers to get the varigated colours.
Hope you like these as much as my nieces did!
