I'm still here :)

Hey everybody,

I'm still around, don't anybody worry! I've had lots going on with Stampin' Up! and getting ready for the new catalog coming out in January, and the retirement in December, so I've been sort of MIA.

I'm also working on a Stamp-a-Stack coming up on January 15th. We will be making a whole bunch of all occasion cards, and I will have lots of copies of the new catalog available for sale. As always, the catalogs will be $5 at the event, or will be free with a purchase of $50 or more (before shipping and taxes). In the next coming weeks, I will have lots more details available, so please save the date, and I hope to see you there!

For anybody interested in the ribbon swap, we are nearing the end. Spots are still open until Noveber 20th, so please let me know if you are interested and your name isn't listed on the earlier blog posting (and scroll down to that post for more details about the ribbon swap).

My leg is better now, and I am hoping to be able to get some pictures posted soon of the projects we'll be making in upcoming classes and events!

Thanks everyone!

New Promotions for November!

Hey everybody! Sorry I've been MIA lately. I sprained my ankle this past week, and have been taking it easy and trying to recover. I'm off crutches now, but still not completely back in the swing of things, so it might be a while before I can take and post new pictures.

There is a new promotion that I am incredibly excited about for November! If you buy any three sets of our designer papers at $9.95 each, you'll get one set free! There are so many beautiful sets on pages 170-173 of the Winter catalog, as well as a couple of sets available in the mini catalog. With a new retirement rapidly approaching, I am looking forward to using this promo to stock up on all of my favorite double sided paper sets!

We also have a special deal on one of our stamp sets. The 'Wishing You Cheer' stamp set (on page 33 of the Winter catalog) is 20% off until November 3rd - making it $11.16 before shipping and taxes. If anybody is interested in purchasing this set at the discount, please let me know by 7pm November 3rd.

Also remember that the Winter Glitz packages are still available (see my earlier post for details on that special) so please contact me if you are interested in purchasing a kit, as they are available only until supplies are gone.

I have a busy week ahead, but hope to be able to post details about next month's technique class soon, so be looking for that. Thanks everybody!

Spectrum Class Project

As promised, here is one of the projects we will be making at the spectrum pad technique class on the 25th (see my earlier blog post for more details). Hope to see you there!

November Technique Class - Using Spectrum Pads

Hi everybody!

Sorry I am so late in getting this information out to you all. It's been a busy couple of weeks!

This month's technique class will be the various uses of spectrum pads. The class will be held October 25th at 7:00pm. I am hoping to have pictures of the projects we will be making, posted over the weekend. So keep checking for updates. As always, the class cost is $5, but that fee is waived if you make a $25 purchase the night of the class. RSVPs are requested by the 23rd so that I can have your supplies ready for you.

Thanks everybody!

An the winner is...

I ust want to thank everybody who entered the raffle, and everyone that came out to make the Stamp-a-Stack a big success. I had so much fun on Saturday, and I hope that those of you who couldn't attend will be able to join us next time!

The winner of the raffle drawing was Nancy Jones! I had my husband pick the winner from a hat, and I had to laugh when he picked Nancy, because she really had her heart set on winning that Measure of a Life set. So, assuming that Nancy picks that set, this means that the Polka Dot and Paisley set will be up for grabs in a future giveaway.

Congratulations, Nancy. And thanks again everybody for making this weekend so much fun, and so successful!

Weekend Raffle!

Hey everybody!

I have decided to have a raffle this weekend to celebrate the holiday! For every $50 order (before shipping and taxes) that anybody places with me by 7pm on Monday, October 8th, I will enter their name into a drawing for a free stamp set. If you place a $100 order, you would get two entries into the raffle, and so on. The winner will get to choose one of the sets pictured here. Polka Dots & Paisley is a current set in the catalog that retails for $18.95, and Measure of a Life is a retired level two hostess set from last year's catalog.

Please contact me, if you would like to be entered into the raffle, to place an order. I accept personal checks, and credit cards.
