Sticky9 Square Prints Memory Game

There are so many wonderful ways to enjoy Sticky9.  But hey, don’t take our word for it, check out what our friend Victoria from the Scissors & Sage blog has created. A memory game made with Sticky9 Square Prints.

image

Besides being a really fun game Victoria says her “favourite part of this project is that you can use photos from any kind of life event, trip, or celebration. You can create the game for yourself, or give it to someone special. The photos could be of a special birthday, a newly engaged couple, a vacation, a beloved pet or child, you name it… ” Victoria, we salute you! 

Fancy making your own? Here’s how… 

image

You’ll need:
A set of Sticky9 Square Prints, they come in sets of 27. This is perfect: 13 photos (2x) + one extra for the title photo.

Rules (for two players):

  1. Turn all photos upside down on the floor. Scatter the pairs randomly to create either a grid (easier) or a collage (harder) of photos.
  2. The first player turns over two cards at random. If they don’t match, turn them back over for the second player’s turn. If they do match, put them to the side and play again. Continue your turn until you turn over two cards that do not match.
  3. Continue playing until no cards remain. The person with the most matched sets wins.
  4. Optional:  Play best of three to determine who will wash dishes after dinner, walk the dog early in the morning, or do the laundry next.

We absolutely love this idea. Thanks so much Victoria for sharing this fun game! So, how do you use your Sticky9 Square Prints

Sticky9 helping the planet one order at a time :)

Oh hi there Sticky9ers! We’re guessing you may have noticed that we love animals at Sticky9HQ.  It’s true, we do. We love animals, nature, people, heck we love this big old beautiful planet we call home. That’s why we’ve been taking steps to do our bit to combat global warming - first step, making Sticky9 production and shipping carbon neutral :)

image

So with this in mind… we are absolutely DELIGHTED to tell you about our new project with ClimatePartner (a leading European specialist for climate protection).  Starting today every Sticky9 order will generate between 10C and €1 (depending on size) towards the forest protection project in Kasigau, Kenya.

So what’s the project and how does it help combat global warming?
The forest protection project in Kasigau, Kenya counteracts the devastating effects of deforestation in Kenya’s Kasigau Wildlife Corridor and prevents the emission of more than 1m tons of CO2 annually.  It also helps to preserve local biodiversity and the integrity of an entire ecosystem (This includes zebras, cheetahs, lions and depending on the season, over 500 African elephants - Wow! 500 elephants!!!).

image


Does this mean I’ll have to pay more to use Sticky9?

No, not at all! Our prices aren’t going to change as a result of our new carbon neutral project. :) Sticky9 will be donating between €0.10 and €1 on behalf of every order to help fund this fantastic project. It means you can place your Sticky9 order safe in the knowledge that we are doing our best to look after the planet (not forgetting the animals, of course!). Pretty cool right? What do you think Mr Elephant?

Sounds great! How can I find out more?

It’s time for a Sticky9 Makeover!

Wow! There has been A LOT of change at Sticky9 over the past 6 months.  We’ve created our first App launched *new* products and we have even more surprises up our sleeves.

As the great Heraclitus once said “there is nothing permanent except change” - this is definitely true at Sticky9HQ! And we wouldn’t have it any other way… So this got us thinking, if Sticky9 is changing maybe it’s about time we freshened up our look! *Eek it’s time for a Sticky9 makeover*

image

Once we decided it was time for a change, our Tyler started work on the Sticky9 transformation! He showed his concepts to our team, and it’s safe to say we absolutely LOVED them! Although, as a team we couldn’t decide on a favourite. After many, many, MANY hours of debate, our Social Media Superstar Afonso chimed in with a suggestion… “Guys! Let’s ask the people of London, let them decide!”  So that’s exactly what we did…

image

Sticky9ers! The great people of London have spoken.  So without further ado we present to you the new look Sticky9 *Cheering*.

Note: fireworks not included. Just added for dramatic effect ;)

Ten Facts about Lennie

1 note

Last week, everyone’s favourite cheeky-chappy Lennie took over our social media channels (honestly, we can’t leave him alone for 5 minutes!) Lennie is the true entre’paw’neur behind StickyK9.  We think it’s time you got to know our Lennie! So here are our ten favourite facts about our favourite cute-ster pug (sorry, we mean serious business-dog. Of course!)

image

1. First of all why is Lennie called Lennie?  Lennie is short for Leonardo - Lennie’s parents loved art so they named him after the great Leonardo da Vinci… But you can call him Lennie. :) 

2. Lennie LOVES bacon. He also loves asparagus… but only if it’s wrapped in bacon.

3. His favourite TV show is Game of Thrones. Lennie is currently writing a fan-fiction called “Game of Pugs” so stay tuned!

4. Lennie “claims” he went on a date with Beyoncé before she was famous.

5. Lennie has travelled the world, his passport is chock-a-block with stamps. He dreams of visiting Argentina one day (for the steak). 

6. Lennie doesn’t have a favourite sport perse. Unless you count “chasing an old tennis ball”. A sport?… hmmm, If it was a sport, Lennie would be the world champion. 

7. At the moment Lennie lives in East London in an up-and-coming  neighbourhood. He lives by himself and enjoys bachelor’s lifestyle.

8. When the song “Who let the dogs out” is played, Lennie goes crazy although his music of choice is always classic rock.  AlthoughWe have caught him listening to Phil Collins (which Lennie strongly denies).

9.  As you may have noticed one of Lennie’s favourite pastimes is annoying the postman. This (sort of) friendly feud started when the postie patted Lennie on the head and said “isn’t he cute”. Lennie DOES NOT like being called cute, adorable, sweet, lovely, precious, etc.  (Aww, he’s so cute when he’s grumpy!). 

10. Lennie doesn’t have a driver’s licence. Which is why every weekend someone from the Sticky9 team takes him for a drive around London, so he can enjoy the view, with his head hanging out the window (reminding everyone that he IS the top-dog in this town). 

So there you have it, our top 10 favourite facts about Lennie the pug! Don’t forget to follow him on Facebook and Instagram to stay up-to-date with his adventures and the latest from StickyK9. Woof!
