Carina Christmas Card Workshop


OK as far as I am aware this is my youngest customer! Isn't she just gorgeous. Her mum, Fiona, was one of the ladies on my table at the carina Leagues Club. Notice how intently she is studying the Stampin' Up! catalogue - so beautiful and doesn't she have great taste! Wow, was this a great day! We raised $767 from the raffle and card competitions alone, with the ordering percentage yet to be calculated. Thank you to all the demonstrators in our group, who did a spectacular job preparing and conducting our largest of 6 events.


This is the table that I 'taught'. Whilst I guided them through our 6 cards, they were very independent - they had to be with my developing a growing attraction to the microphone - who would have ever guessed - not me! Even our newest cardmaker in this group did a wonderful job - I didn't even guess it was her first time making cards! I just love how we can show people how easy it is to create something beautiful.

Here is our lovely Jen Fraser's table. Jen also had one of her newest demonstrators, Jerry, assisting us all with raffle ticket sales as well as judging the card competition with Orrell. We are very appreciative of both their efforts.



Jen Wells was busy again and can probably now teach our 6 beautiful cards with her eyes closed, having taught a large table at the Paddington Event! Well done Jen - Thank You.



Kate did an awesome job with her table, and also kindly looked after a lovely customer of mine also.


Multitalented and Mutitasking Amanda did a wonderful job, whilst her husband Nathan held the fort with the children, ,discovering the wonders of the Carina Leagues Club Kid's Room.


Felicity and Megan did a great job with their lovely table.


Robyn did a sterling job, holding the fort after out lovely Loren had a rather unfortunate accident on the way to our event. With a brace and crutches, Loren thought about coming on later! Thankfully she did decide to rest up - we certainly missed her and were terribly worried, however, Robyn worked wonderfully to look after her own plus Loren's lovely friend.


Here is Bec and her table. Next week Bec is the hostess of the event at Pine Rivers Bowls Club! We are really looking forward to it and if you have not yet been to this event, please do contact me urgently as whilst we are at capacity, we may be able to squeeze you in! One of Bec's demonstrator team members, Orrell, generously helped us on the day, and we are very grateful for her efforts also.




Fiona and her lovely table, with Elaine and Diana scoring 2 fantastic product hampers in our raffle. I am missing some photos of lovely Kathy and Ursula's table - so keep posted - i will send some through, as I am hoping Bec might have some.
A sincere thank you to all the customers who have supported and enjoyed our 3 events to date. We have really enjoyed bringing you these events and are thrilled to be part of a great project at the Mater - without your help, this would not be possible.
