It's Time for a NEW Idea Book!

I've only had it a few days, but I'm already loving it! (as usual!).

Come celebrate NEW stuff with me on:

Saturday, February 4th
2:00-10:00pm
@ the clubhouse (2450 W. 2400 N. just a few blocks from my house)

There will be a make and take project for anyone who RSVP's for the Open House, and a workshop-type project for those coming to the CROP!

The crop will include the workshop project (more details later, but I promise you will love it!), dinner, and plenty of room to spread out and work on whatever you want!  Come for the full 8 hours for just $25!  BUT WAIT!  You may have already earned the crop for free!  (or have a good size discount). 

Be sure to email me to find out how much you have earned toward the crop!  And, if you aren't up for the whole day, just let me know you are coming and I will have a make and take ready to create while you are there.  Come anytime between 2:00-10:00pm!

I Love You Because... Wall Art

Space still available!!!
Wednesday, November 30th 7:00-9:30pm

I fell in LOVE with this idea at the convention this summer!  What a fun way to show love for members of your family!  (Makes a great gift too!).  This 19x15" frame has a custom-made mat, 3-d lettering, and plenty of space to tell loved ones exactly why you love them!  Use a dry erase marker on the glass to write a person's name and what you love about them. 

Make one for each child, or one for your family.  A friend of mine had a great idea:  each morning leave the dry erase marker on someone's pillow and it's their turn to write on the board! (Thanks Anna!)

Workshop fee: $17.00 (includes frame, adhesive, and cutting)
Required order is: $ 15.94 (includes Roxie level 2 paper packet, 10 things pocket)

USE IT UP! Crop

Here's another fun idea I got from Convention.  How about an 8-hour crop?  Do you have lots of paper and unfinished projects that you just can't find the time or space to work on???

Plan now to come to my USE IT UP crop!

Saturday, February 4th  2:00-10:00pm

We will be using the clubhouse in my neighborhood.  Dinner will be provided, as well as a project (valued over $10) using NEW products from the Spring/Summer Idea Book!!!  This crop will be replacing my traditional open house.  You can come for 20 minutes to make the make and take, or sign up for the crop to use the space, have dinner, spread out and get some work done!

Cost: $25.00

BUT, you can earn some of that money toward your Crop cost!

Here's how:

$10 - if you host a gathering before January 27th
$2 - for each workshop that you order for, and attend
$3 - for each NEW friend that you bring to a workshop ($1 if she comes to just help, $3 if she creates her own!)
$5 - for every $100 you spend before January 27th

I will help you keep track of your earnings toward the crop!  I hope you will be able to join us!

It's Been A While

I know, I kinda fell off the stamping/scrapping earth, but I'm back!!!  In fact, I'm back from Disneyland, with all kinds of excitement about the new products and amazing art that I can't wait to share with everyone!  YES, EVERYONE!

I would LOVE to do a Home Gathering for you and your friends!  If you are interested, please contact me as soon as possible.  As a special thank you for hosting, you will not only get our FAN-Stinkin-TASTIC hostess gifts, but I will also give you a special treat. 

Do you have a Cricut?  Well, you might want one soon, if you don't!  I'm thirlled that CTMH has come out with an exclusive Cricut cartridge that coordinates beautifully with so many of our products!  If you don't have one, you can be entered into a special drawing that I will be doing in November for my 6" (old style) Cricut!  It's gently used, but worth winning - for sure!!!  And the winner of the Cricut will get the Cricut bundle for 15% off!

Here's a sneak peek at the new catalog.  Be sure to come by and get yours anytime after August 1st!  And, if you do, you will get 10% off your entire order at my open house on August 26!
