New website

Hello everyone

I wanted to let you know about my new SU website… these are one of the resources available to us as Stampin’Up Demonstrators and I have spent a little time getting it ready to go. Go take a look:

http://lanaharvey.stampinup.net

The biggest benefit of this site to you at the moment is that you can easily see all my upcoming events in one spot. It’s easy to read, and you can easily book in to attend through the site by clicking on the “Contact Me” tab. As time goes by I will start putting more of my own projects on to the site as well. For those of you who like to know what is coming up I would suggest that you visit often and maybe even bookmark this site.

I’d like to offer you a little encouragement to visit the site. Let me know what you think.
Regards Lana

Good morning to all the ladies that came to our very first ‘Stamp Camp’ yesterday. A great day was had by all and success was had by all as everyone completed there box and they all looked beautiful.

It is exciting to hear so many of you wanting to join us on the 4th December for our Christmas card frenzy which we are calling “Build-A-Card”…..quick and easy cards that any level of crafter or even non crafter can put together and pop in the post.

I would like to send out a big thanks to Sharon whom is my partner is crime…lol, no seriously the day couldn’t of been such a success without her. A big hug also for Sharon’s sister Nicole who helps us out always, many hands make light work and our day sail along without and hiccups.

So thank you so much to everyone who came and had a great day….but I am sure there is something that we haven’t picked on that could be improved and for this we are asking for any feedback so that we can make these events even better……email me your feedback to lana@harveysautotraders.com.au.

Spring Mini Launch….What a great day!

Firstly, I would like to thank everyone who came to the Spring Mini Launch that Sharon and myself had today. It was a great sucess and all who came had a great time and made two beautiful projects. Sharon and I worked hard making up a lot of different samples to decorate the room and we think it turned out just beautiful; below are some photos.

So did you like the photos? Lots of ideas…Everyone who came received 10% off there order, got to take part in a variety of paper and embellishment shares (come back tomorrow as we have some spots still available and will give you more details) and had the chance to win in our lucky door prize. There were three lucky winners. I know there were a few people wanting to come but due to sports commitments were unable (I missed my son playing soccer today, and the time I don’t go they win…figure…lol)

Keep watch as we are having a Stamp Camp in October (no you don’t sleep over). What a Stamp camp is, is a day where you make a rather detailed project which takes the day to make. We supply morning/afternoon tea and a yummy lunch…so I guess it a camp with out the sleep over. So stay tuned as it is first in, there will be 12 spots. More details regarding project, price and date at a later date.

Good night all….
