HI Crafty Folks,
It's been longer than I had anticipated since I last
contacted you. My time has been spent dealing with the flu (3 times - various
family members), replacing my paperweight (dead cell-phone) and falling down
like a tree. I'd like to be able to tell you I fell while rescuing a small
child from a burning building but, no such luck. I simply fell over myself. My
cat stared at me...
Okay then, on to telling you about the opportunities I
have to offer you right now: Three events are coming up
and I have a lot to tell you about offerings through Stampin' Up!
First event: CARD BUFFET ON FEBRUARY
15th -- 7pm - Midnight -- 351 S. "F" Street, Oxnard
Join me
for an evening of Card Making or try your hand at a 12 x 12 scrapbooking layout.
Projects I've designed will be available, with all the necessary tools and
supplies to make them, between 7 pm and Midnight. Bring your own SNAIL
(double-sided tape) and pay only $1.50 per card. If you forget your SNAIL you
can buy one from me for $7.00 ($4.50 for a refill) or pay $2.00 per card. The
Scrapbook layout (2 pages for one price) will be $7.00, or $8.00 if you use my
SNAIL. Come when you want and go when you want. I can point you toward an all
night drive-thru for caffeine on the way home. :>) You can check out these
designs on my blog under the title, "February Card Buffet Coming Soon" . www.marciaplayswithpaper.blogspot.com
Please let me know if you plan to attend.
Second Event: Christmas Scrapbooking
Pages Class -- February 17th -- 2 pm until ?
-- 291 Anacapa Drive, Camarillo
We'll make two full 2-page, 12x12
layouts for your Christmas memories. This is another class through Camarillo
United Methodist's Center for Creative Learning. We'll meet in Brooks Hall to
preserve our pictures and thoughts. I'll bring everything you need except the
pictures. Class fee is $17.00. See the designs on my blog under the title,
"Christmas Scrapbooking Class on February 17th".
www.marciaplayswithpaper.blogspot.com If you plan to
attend this class, I MUST know by THIS SUNDAY, February 10th, by 2pm so I can
order and prepare all needed materials.
Yes, of course, we can change the year on the
page.
Something to think about: Have you ever thought about
having a Catalog Party? If you're like me, you don't
really have a place to host a Stampin' Up! Party in your home. If that's the
case and you want to build up your Papercrafting Supplies, you can have your own
Catalog Party. It's simple, just get catalogs from me and take them around to
your friends who you think would enjoy Stampin' Up! products. Collect their
orders and we can submit them together as a party. That way, you get HOSTESS
BENEFITS (free stuff)! If you find a group of people who would like to do this,
we could set up a club and you could rotate Hostess Benefits each time. Who do
YOU know who might bite at that idea? Now's a GREAT time to think about it
because right now is Sale-a-Bration TIme!!!
What's Sale-a-Bration, you
ask? Crafty people refer to it as "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year".
:>) During Sale-a-Bration the following things happen:
--> EVERYONE who orders gets a
free item (19 items available -- from buttons and ribbons to full stamp sets)
for EVERY $50 worth of products they order (before S+H and
tax).
--> A Hostess who has a $150
party gets a free set of Silver Glimmer Paper PLUS Sale-a-Bration items she
earns PLUS regular Hostess Benefits. In addition, any of her GUESTS who submit
am order of at least $50 get THEIR free Sale-a-Bration item or items,
free.
--> A Hostess who has a $400 party will also get a
free Hostess Bundle of 3 Sale-a-Bration Items
--> A person who joins the Stampin' Up! Family as
a demonstrator during Sale-a-Bration will receive 25% more items in their
STarter Kit.
Fun, huh? I think so.
:>) What else?
Oh yeah, Event number Three: Spring Card Class -- March 10th - 2 pm - ? Choir Room at
Camarillo United Methodist (291 Anacapa Drive)
We'll be making three regular cards and up to
4 notecards for Spring and I'll provide everything you need. Check back to my
blog soon. I have the pictures taken but haven't had a chance to post them
yet. The class materials fee will be $10 and I need to know you're coming by
March 3rd.
The Sent WIth Love Kit (see it
here: http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/playwithmarcia/promotions )
is available now through April 30th. It's a sweet group of products for love
notes ANY time of year as it's not really Valentine oriented.
The "Best of 25 Years" Stamps
for Stampin' Up!'s 25th anniversary are available now, one set per month. Check
out, "Best of Birthdays," ( http://www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=132929 )
and, "Best of Love" ( http://www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=132987 ).
They're each $14.95 each and each set consists of much loved stamps drawn from
set inthe past, as well as one new stamp in each month's set. Save up you
proof of purchases and you'll be able to get a FREE set ($14.95 and under) for
every 6 "Best of" sets you purchase over the course of the year.
ONE MORE THING! Are you still reading?
Have you ever been
to one of my classes and thought, "I can't do that at home. I don't have all
that stuff!" or "I don't have time to come up with
projects." ? My Paper Pumpkin is a new program offered by
Stampin' Up!. meant to address exactly these "problems". Oh, buying stuff from
me and coming to Card Buffets will do that too. :>) But I
digress...
My Paper Pumpkin is a craft kit which will be shipped to
you monthly when you sign up for the program. These projects can be done in
about half an hour and everything is provided. We call it your monthly
creativity escape! There's no minimum term and you can skip a month by
going online and cancelling for the month (you DO have to do it in time). Check
it our here on the new website for the product : If it sounds like this might
be for you, check out www.mypaperpumpkin.com . It's fun to
just take a look if nothing else. The cost is $19.95 per month and that
includes shipping charges. If you decide to sign up, I'd appreciate it if you
would sign me in as your demonstrator. Thanks!
I hope to see you soon.
Thanks!
