I’m Havin’ a Party!

Yep, I’m throwing my own party! Mark it on your calendar — Friday February 9 at 1 pm or 7 pm. Come on over for a free Stampin’ Up! workshop at my place. Just like one at your place, we’ll do a couple of make & takes, peruse the catalog, learn about Sell-A-Bration, and gab and visit. The only difference is, even tho I’m the hostess, YOU might be the one to take home the hostess benefits! I will raffle off the free stamp sets and merchandise to lucky party attendees. Yes, you must attend to win. You’ll get one raffle ticket for attending, another for placing an order, and another if you book your own workshop. After all the orders are in I will pull the winners. The number of winners will depend on the grand total of all orders placed (more orders equals more loot to raffle off!). If you’re on my mailing list, look for an invitation in your email box. If you’re not on my mailing list drop me an email and RSVP for either the afternoon or evening workshop. The more the merrier!

Look How Cute...

these Sell-A-Bration sets are! Here are some samples using the sets so you can see them "in action!" (The pretty teal and celery flowered card was stamped by me, but designed by one of my stampin' buddies in our NY Inketts stamp group.)

What I made for Christmas this year

I had a ton of fun this Christmas making these nifty card organizer boxes for Christmas gifts. They really don’t take that much time at all, and each one is completely unique! Each one has a little pocket in the lid to hold postage stamps, and dividers so cards can be arranged by month or occasion. I’m looking forward to teaching a class on these. Everyone in the class will take home their own box, 6 coordinating cards, and the remaining Designer Series Paper from their project.

It’s Sell-A-Bration Time!

Sell-A-Brate good times, come on! (Sorry, I’m such a product of the ’80s! My husband Pat starts singing that song at this time every year.) It’s the most wonderful time of the year — for stampers, anyway!

If you have never participated in Sell-a-bration before...here’s the deal. During January and February, for every $50 you spend on Stampin’ Up! products, you get to select a FREE Sell-a-Bration Stamp Set from the Sell-a-Bration Catalog! Workshop Hostesses (over $150 from in-home or catalog workshops) are also rewarded with an additional free set when their workshop hits $300 (which it always does during Sell-a-bration). If you are like me, you can easily hit that $300 mark all by yourself! If you didn't receive a Sell-a-Bration mini catalog from me, click here to view it online.

I accept orders from anywhere in the United States. Shipping is only 10% if you live next door to me or in Alaska! Contact me via email (click on "View My Complete Profile" to the left) to place your order. I accept Mastercard, Visa, or Paypal (preferred for online orders). If you contact me this month to book a home workshop, I'll give you a bonus free gift!

I have arrived!

Looks like I've finally arrived into the 21st Century! I have my own blog! My New Year's resolution realized, and it's only January 3. Now, the challenge will be keeping it up-to-date all year. The plan is to maintain a gallery of all my stamping works of {he}art, scrapbook inspiration, and lot and lots of card samples to keep all my stamping friends jazzed up to keep on stampin' on.
