Stampin Up shares

I know I can't afford to buy whole packs of every item in the SU catalogue, and in truth often it would be too much of each thing. I've noticed a couple of shares going on that may be of intereste to people so thought I'd share the details. These won't be every share goin-just the ones I've come across. All are with SU demonstrators so obviously you can buy other stuff too. The details are on each persons blog but essentially the SU demonstrator buys for example a roll of every ribbon in the SU UK catalogue then will split each roll into a certain number of shares. You can have one share of each ribbon-maybe a metre of each, sometimes two, of you could have two or more shares.

I did a ribbon share a while ago and highly recommend it. With this being still Sale-a-bration (until the end of February), many demos are offering the chance to win a sale-a-bration stamp set-Jeannette has an amazing offer on her blog with the taffeta (read must have gorgeousness) and linen thread (fab for buttons) and a sale-a-bration set if I am reading right! I sound slightly uncertain as the deal is so good it's almost too good to be true! All that for £16.50 including P+P!

Jeannette is nothing if not kind and generous though so it's all true-the deal to break all deals!!-go and see! If you're lucky Jeannette may still have a space left on her other ribbon share for the card makers favourite grosgrain-be quick!

I've decided to join in on Joanna's silver hodgepodge share. I like the look of the hodgepodge but at nearly £25, I can't afford the whole box and doubt I'd manage to use it all. Joanne is offering shares of a fifth of a box, just a good amount to get a real feel for the product and at an affordable
£4.65 plus 65p P+P. For the non SU addicts, hodgepodge is the name SU uses for a gorgeous collection of plain brads, frames and the most beautiful patterned silver brads.

There's a few paper shares going on too. The SU designer paper is fab, a good thickness and double sided of course. To get a pack of each would cost a fortune Julie is offering the opportunity to get a 6"x6" piece of EVERY design-that's 84 6"x6" sheets, which should keep you going for a while!!!

I'll let you know if I come across any other shares like this. I know I find them invaluable. Now I'm off to plan what cards I'll make once I've got my eager hands on some silver hodgepodge. With Mothers Day not far off I'd say taffeta ribbon and silver hodgepodge are a must providing the final little details that make a gorgeous card an extra very special gorgeous card!
