Did you miss me?? It’s been a few months since my last newsletter thanks to some internet issues but I’m back in full swing! So much has been going on over the past several months and I’ve missed getting to see and share with all of you. My biggest news is that my daughter Shelby graduated from Seneca in May and received a full scholarship to attend Tennessee State University while participating in the Naval ROTC Program at Vanderbilt. She’s very excited and leaves on August 11th for her Naval Indoctrination at Vandy before moving into TSU on August 19th. She’ll be working on her BSN in Nursing as well as her commission as an officer in the US Navy. We couldn’t be prouder!!
Countdown to the New Fall & Winter Idea Book and Catalog!
The new 2008 Fall & Winter Idea Book and Catalog will be here August 11, and I can’t wait to show you all the new things that Stampin’ Up! has in store for us including 6 New In Colors! Be one of the first to get your hands on the new catalog by reserving your copy today for only $5.00 (retail $9.95) or get yours FREE by joining one of my new clubs or holding your own workshop!
Better yet….stop by my NEW CATALOG OPEN HOUSE on Saturday, August 23rd from 1:00-4:00 and pick one up! I’ll be showcasing all the new colors, and lots of new items. Plus there will be demonstrations, make and takes, door prizes, refreshments, and my ANNUAL BARGAIN BASEMENT SALE!
In Colors will be gone after August 10th!
If you are in need of cardstock, ink, refills, or any of the accessories available in the retiring colors, please order them as soon as possible. Once the current supply is diminished, they will be gone forever!! Here are the colors we are saying farewell to:
Blue Bayou
Soft Sky
Wild Wasabi
River Rock
Groovy Guava
Purely Pomegranate
Anyone placing an order between now and August 9th will have their name included in my “Mystery Hostess Workshop”. From those names, I’ll draw several winners (based on total retail sales) for the hostess sets and hostess benefits. Plus anyone holding a catalog workshop between now and August 9th will have a chance at winning my $50.00 FREE SHOPPING SPREE in the new catalog!!
Remember, these specials are being offered by me personally to my customers & friends. These are not a Stampin’ Up! Incentive.
Please note that the retiring accessories and wheels lists are available while supplies last. Once depleted these items will no longer be available to order! I’ll send out a separate emails with updates as they are available.
New Clubs Starting in September!
New Stamp Clubs are now forming. If you are looking for a fun way to “Stamp on a Budget”, my clubs are for you!! My clubs are a great way to learn new stamping techniques and projects not normally done at my workshops. They are an 8 month commitment with a minimum order of $18.75/month. When you sign up, you will receive your choice of a FREE 2008 Fall and Winter Idea Book and Catalog or 2 Classic Stamp Pads (retail value $10.00). Monthly get togethers are held at MY HOME so there’s no need to clean house. Just come enjoy a fun night out with the girls. Attendance is not required but makes it much more fun. The added appeal to my clubs is that each month a different lady will be our “Hostess” and receive a minimum of $15.00 in stampin/scrapping supplies, and a Level 1 Hostess Set of her choice. That is approximately $40.00 FREE just for being in the club. There will also be other specials offered by both Stampin’ Up! and myself as well as exclusive club offers.
Opening are available on the following nights:
2nd Thursday at 7:00 pm Stamp Club (combination of cards, packaging, and gift ideas) STARTS September 11th
3rd Tuesday at 7:00pm Stamp Club (combination of cards, packaging, and gift ideas) STARTS September 16th
I will also be adding additional club nights as needed. Better yet….start your own club and you pick the night! You’ll also receive an added bonus from me. (see referral program below for more details)
Call me today to join in the fun!! And feel free to ask your family and friends to join with you!! (see referral program below for an added bonus)
Technique Classes!
My Technique Classes are back in full swing and more popular than ever!! What is Technique Class? It’s a specialized class concentrating on various ways to step up your stamping. We’ll be doing 3 Techniques per class. For each technique, everyone will make a full sized card to use and a trading card sized piece to keep. The trading card will be mounted on a 1/4 sheet of cardstock printed with the instructions. The sheets will be punched in the corner and joined with a loose leaf ring. Simply add the new instruction sheets to the ring as you attend new classes. Come as often or as little as you like. It’s totally up to you. Not only will you have wonderful new ideas to share but also have a valuable tool to refer back to whenever you want to do the technique again.
My next class is Wednesday, August 27th at 7:00pm with a Repeat Class on Friday, August 29th at 7:00pm. The cost will be $8.00 per class and limited to 10 people per night.
Please RVSP no later than 6:00pm on Monday, August 25th to hold a spot for either night!
