BOGO (Part 2)

Part 2 of the Retired (retiring) list.  If you attend my Retirement Party on May 4, there may be some more goodies on the BOGO table.

 

Bottom line – I want you to have the opportunity to purchase and use these stamps and enjoy them as much as I have.  After, isn’t helping each other one of the ways we Dream in Color?

Retirement Party

No…..I’m not retiring, yet.  But, I have Stampin’ Up! Products that ARE retiring at the end of this month.   I know I will miss these sets but, it allows Stampin’ Up! To bring in new and exciting products.  More about that later.  At Thursday’s retirement sale you will get a chance to shop my BOGO sale, check out the new catalog, and do a make and take from the new products.  The fun starts at 7:00!  Hope to see you there!

Tuesday’s Tidbits…

occ17_p12cHello everyone –

I know, it isn’t Tuesday anymore…and it may not be Wednesday either.  But, you know, sometimes life just happens to us.  That’s one of the awesome things about having good friends – you can relax and not be 100% all of the time – and that’s ok.  Stampin’ Up! is like that in many ways. It sounds funny, but it’s true. Crafting is an activity that can provide so much enjoyment to yourself and others – and, there are no rules, so you don’t have to be “on” to enjoy it.

I know that when I don’t have the opportunity to create, I start to get a little twitchy — needing to have my hands in the ink and wiping off embossing powder.  That is what is so great about the Birthday Bright Project Kit.

Like all of the SU kits, you have everything you need right there. all ready for your – except for your paper snips, and adhesives.

Check out this video that show how it all works together to make a set of birthday cards – there is even a group of shaker cards in the kit!!  Get the Birthday Bright Stamp set and a package of adhesive and you have just earned yourself a treat from the Sale-A-Bration catalog.  What a Deal!!  I am getting this set along with a couple of other trinkets. It almost makes the winter bearable.

Let me know if you need any other information or help to order from my site (24/7).  And as always, Happy Stamping!!!

October Class Schedule



Good Morning!  It is finally October and in Arkansas, it has finally cooled off and the humidity pods have moved on.  There is nothing quite like the clear skies and crisp air on a fall morning.  I think this is one of my favorite times of the year.  It is amazing that the weather has such a powerful affect on our moods and everything else.  With fall in the air and the preparations for winter on the horizon, it is time to start thinking about finishing (or in some cases, starting) all of those project you were going to make for the holidays.

My October Class Schedule is posted below to help you get in the mood.  You will find four different dates that I am available to teach a Christmas Card Class.  If none of those dates work for you, call, text, or email me – we can get something scheduled.  Do you have a crafter on your Christmas list?  I have some great ideas for gift items as well.   Everything from a bundle of embellishments for stocking stuffers to a Big Shot to  help with all of your embossing or die cutting needs.  Give me a call, text,  or an email.  I will even offer to gift wrap for you.  What a deal?  Right?? 





Keep in mind, the October Specials – all month is the Buy 3, Get 1 Free DSP special. The current hostess code is G6PMDMWZ


Coming in November – my first On-Line Class.  How does that work, you ask?  Well, when I open the class, you can either order directly from my website a list of supplies you will need.  Everything will be shipped directly to you.  You will also receive a color pdf file of directions and tips & tricks to help you with your project.   If you are local, you can order from the website or we can coordinate and have a single package shipped to me.

A Little Retreat Time….

 

What a great time we had at our recent Holiday Escape Crafting Weekend Retreat.  My upline’s upline (my grand-upline?) hosted a wonderful weekend at the 4H center in Little Rock.  We were treated with goodies, make and takes, and prizes all weekend.  We started with Halloween.  Worked our way through the entire Holiday Catalog and ended with Christmas and a PJ Party.   We were even able to sneak in a celebration of Kay and Elizabeth’s recent promotions to Gold and Silver.  Yay girls!  Good job!!  Elizabeth even made sure Kay got a tiara for her accomplishments.

The PaperMadePrettier Team is a wonderful group of ladies that I am excited to claim as part of my own tribe.  It seems that no matter what the topic or question, they are all so supportive.  I love this team!!

Here are some snap shots of the weekend – I was having so much fun and making so many cards, I didn’t have time to take too many pictures. 

Speaking of the holidays – if you missed my recent Pinterest Party, you missed a great time.  Here are some pics of the cute cards and gift packaging we made.  Call me to schedule your own party, or two.
