Your workshop can be held in your home or mine (Cardinal, Ontario). 

I have set aside some special days in June where I am offering private classes for my awesome stampers and their friends and families.  If YOU pick one of these days, I will give you a package of our brand new 2012-2014 In-Color 8 1/2 X 11 Card stock, and a coordinating Ink Pad for FREE! If you are one of the first 10 to book, I will also throw in an In-Color assortment of hand-stamped cards and matching envelopes.  


I will also extend this promotion to Catalog party orders that close on these dates. 


All of this is over and above the already fabulous hostess perks that Stampin' Up! affords us on our qualifying party orders.  At $200 in sales, your private party or workshop will earn you $35 in hostess dollars that can be spent on specially priced hostess items or anything else in our current catalog.  Of course this is only the beginning..  the perks only grow from there!!


You pick the date and invite your family, friends and colleagues.  Put on the kettle and leave the rest to me.  Your class can feature hand stamped cards, 3D gifts and items made with our big shot, Scrapbooking or our My Digital Studio products.  If you wish, we can also combine two items of interest such as Card making and 3D Gifts.

So Sorry to See You Go..

This was a card made with my club girls this past week.  

I really wanted to do something with our retiring In-colors, and in my effort to make more use of items that haven't gotten visited in a whlie, I hauled out my crimper as well.  

We used Concord Crush and Poppy Parade for this card (other than the Whisper White of course),  some of the retiring Hostess DSP also in the matching in colors.  

This card was just as much about me challenging myself to just dig in and play, as it was about making a card that my club girls would love. I had the brain-fart afterwards that the word GRAD would have worked well on the pennants as well. 

I cannot think of a better occasion to use the "Go Confidently in the direction of your Dreams" stamp, than a graduation.  Such a bittersweet ending before a brand new beginning..  

Would you like to make someone special a hand-made Graduation card this year?  Let me know how I can help!  :)

You can order our in-color 2010-2011 items for just a few more days.  On May 31st that vault door closes and they're gone gone gone..  

You can order 24/7 from my demonstrator website, submit your order by e-mail,  or give me a call and we will place your order together.  

Whatever you're up to today, I hope your day has some ScrapNStamp In it! :)

 

Going Going.. another bite.. Get it while you can!

I made these 2 cards (and the one I posted on the weekend)  using the soon to be retired hostess set "Butterfly Prints" in our current idea book and catalog. 

I mounted a sheet of whisper white inside as well, and stamped coordinating images on the inside as well just to give it a little extra.. 

As my regular readers know, I'm a long-time butterfly nut ~ and I will definitely be sorry to see this set go.  

Of course, I'll still have it in my Craft room to enjoy,  but it's not quite the same as being able to share it with all of you on a more regular basis. 

There are only a few more days left to get your must have items from our retiring list...

Do you need help mounting your new stamps, color matching? Is there a technique you'd like to try.  Let me know, I'm here to help!   If you need help placing you order please give me a shout and we'll place your order together.  


Hope your Monday is Fabulous!

 






    

Calendar Updates ~ Won't You Join Us?

Sample Features "Butterfly Prints" which retires May 31st, 2012

You know it's been a long week when you start out to type "I've been working on the calendar" and this little voice in your head starts singing "all the live long day".. too funny!  Then all of a sudden the little voice starts it's own rendition and before long I find myself humming the song as the little voice is singing..  finishing off with just to fill those squares today..     Ha Ha Ha.  

It's all my husband's fault.  At least that's what I always tell him.  We've been making a point lately of trying to schedule more time at HOME.  Life gets to hurry up busy so often that it's no wonder that we're so tired all the time.  It wasn't a huge surprise that in the middle of my gall bladder drama that we both ended up with laryngitis and bronchitis last week.  The forced down-time was really good for us, and for me in particular.  For the first time in a very long time I chose to take some Teddybear and Pj's time and spent some down time with my hubby.  

I had also come to a realization that while many in my life were after me to slow down and take some time to smell the roses..  in my mind I already was.  I had to laugh when I started looking at it realizing that I'd take a break from posting press releases, and go do some housework, then I'd break from that and come work on my blog, and round and round it went. 

What can I say?  When you love your "job", it doesn't FEEL like work..  but even so, the 16-20 hour days take their toll on you after a while.  My big realization came in the middle of our down-time recovery..   and I have to admit I felt a little foolish that it hadn't dawned on me sooner.  



So the goal for this week is continue to work smarter, not harder. You will notice that many of the new calendar additions are slotted for the same day each month.  This will allow people to plan ahead.  Keep in mind however, that if the day I've planned doesn't work for you and there is a day that will work better ~ Feel free to let me know.  If there is enough interest I will create a second event on an alternate day.  Better yet, gather 3 friends to join you, and I'll bring the class to you!  

Here are the latest additions to the ScrapnStamp Calendar..  More Updates to Come.. 

Among the upcoming classes My Digital Studio and Revised Club Menus..  Is there something that you'd like to take a class in?  A particular product you'd like to try ~ I'd love to hear from you!  iscrapnstamp@gmail.com
