2011-2012 Catalogue Launch

I held a day to launch the new catty and a get together as my group had not done this for awhile.  I did a display to show many ideas, and made some frames like at convention. Lots of the ideas came straight from the new Idea catalogue (what a great  book to have).  There was about 20 of us altogether, who gathered over 3 full days to stamp, craft, sew and have a great time.

Singapore 2011 World Cup Netball

I have been so lucky, tripped off to Singapore with my Sister, Cousin and Friends to watch the World Cup Netball.  We flew out of Adelaide (freezing cold) and into Singapore(very warm and humid).

This is the night before we flew out.

 Rob and Kaye at the Opening night.

 First night in Singapore

 Ohhhhh!!!! we got a little shopping in.  Up that well known Road.

 Big night out, we all needed a good feed and not at mid-night.

 Brunch with the Diamonds netball team.

 Cheers with our Singapore Sling.

 Rob and Myself at the Netball

 Wendy and Leanne (sister) about to Cheer!

 Kaye, Crazy supporter. She was with us.

 'Mad Supporters'

 As the week went on we got a little Crazier.

 Showing off the Diamonds

 Celebrating

 With the Sth African Cheer Leader.  She was fantastic and the best dancer ever.

 Congratulations to the Diamonds Netball Team, they were fantastic, and played their hearts out.

We hand the best time in Singapore, the weather was very hot and humid, but lovely after our cold winter. We managed to fit in heaps of sight seeing as well as the netball. Just a little shopping (well maybe a lot of shopping).  This is the cleanest city I have seen, and the rail system is amazing.  I don't like Asian food, but the others had a feast.  I enjoyed the pizza at the Boomerang Bar to celebrate the big win.  Oops no stampin' , but I did make an Album for all to write their daily activities and some photos in.  I cased Tenealle Williams idea when she went to the States for Stampin' Up!'s Convention. Can't find the direct link but I will keep looking.

Happy Stampin'
