Oh, I'm so bad...

It has been SO long since I've posted - the first thing I had to do is get that snowy background off of the page!  Winter is never good for me, due to health stuff.  Now it's spring, almost summer, and I'm back in the groove! 

Upcoming classes: 
Friday Fun Five "Boys n' Girls"  this Friday, May 20, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.  We'll focus on masculine cards, with one or two girl cards.  $12
Birthday 10/10  this Sunday, May 22 from 2:00 - 5:00  Get your bday card stash filled to the brim!  $20

Here's some temptation for you.  The first two are from the Friday class, the other two for Sunday.  And, yes, I DO love that sailing set!!!

Awesome Workshop!

Many thanks go out to Tracie R. and her family and friends for such a WONDERFUL workshop tonight!  Such a lovely group of gals!  I especially love it when people say, "I can NOT do this!" and then when they're done they can't believe what they did.  It's also fantastic to see the younger stampers learning early - we had a 14 yr old and a 7 yr old and they were SO creative.

Don't miss out on YOUR opportunity to hold a Sale-a-Bration workshop!  My calendar is filling up, and March has spring break to work around, so call or email me today to set up your own fun get-together.  I don't do a big sell - I just show you how stamping and SU! work, I demo one card, and then we make two cards together.  We're usually done in under three hours.  And you don't have to have a ton of people, either!  There were just nine of us tonight, but we rocked the house!

Here's the card I demonstrated:

 Here are the two cards we made - simple but WOW, the best kind.

Now it's definitely YOUR turn!

Tick...Tock....Tick...!

Well, folks, February is slipping away  - we're halfway thru already - so don't miss out on Sale-a-Bration savings!  For every $50 you spend (before s/h and tax) you earn one of six new, really neat SAB freebies OR one of about 60 stamp sets from the catalog!  There's no limit, so if you've been saving up to buy goodies - this is THE BEST TIME!  Also, if you've been wanting to have a workshop, this is the time to do it because your guest get more for their money and YOU get an additional SAB choice for every $300 in sales!  My schedule is open - call or email me today and I'll book your fun workshop experience.  We make two hands-on projects, enjoy some great treats, and get away from the world for awhile.  Can't beat that!  Sale-a-Bration lasts until March 31, 2011.

There are also some classes coming up:  Punch Pizzazz is MOVING to Sunday, March 6, and I'm changing the format a bit.  We'll make seven fantastic cards using the Sizzix and our many cool punches.  These are a little challenging but are definitely worth the time! The cost is $20 PLUS you get 25% off any punch or Sizzix item (except the Big Shot).  Also coming up is the All Thru the Year 10/10 on Sunday, Feb. 27 from 2:00 - 5:00 OR Thursday, March 3 from 9:30 - 12:30.  Ten quick and easy cards for those special occasions that come up - birthday, new baby, wedding, sympathy, and so on.  Just $20!  Remember - I have lots of different sayings stamps, so if you want to change the saying, I'll work with you to make it happen.

Here are some samples:

The first three pictures are from the Punch Pizzazz class.

And these two are from the All Thru the Year 10/10.  Remember that you can make each card say whatever you want!

Call or email to sign up for these classes!

Sale-a-Bration 2011 starts today!!!

My favorite event in the Stampin' Up! year is finally here.  Sale-a-Bration is SU!'s annual "thank you" to our customers and what a thanks it is - for every $50 you spend before s/h and tax you receive your choice of eight new items designed just for this event, or you can pick from 69 catalog choices...FREE!  There's no limit to the number of free items you can earn. 

This is the best time of year to have a workshop because your guests get even more for their money and, if your workshop totals $300, you also receive a free item from the same choices. 

AND if you're ready to join our Stampin' Up! family, you get your Starter Kit for 15% off PLUS a free bonus bundle worth over $50!  Using my website you can join in about 30 minutes and be ordering for yourself - with a 20% discount! - right away. 

Don't miss out!  Call today to order, book a workshop, or sign up!

Happy New Year!

Hope the holidays were wonderful for all of you.  We loved having the girls home from their first year in college...for a whole month!  Which is one of the reasons I've been SO bad about my posts!  Anyway, they're back in Flagstaff, and I'm back here and ready to kick off a new semester of my own.  I've changed the upcoming class list a bit, so if you were interested in a particular class, make sure to check my event calendar at inkingofyou.stampinup.net to make sure the class is still scheduled.

We had a great time here on Sunday with the Love You Much 10/10.  Here's most of the cards we did!

This sayings set has over 25 choices!

This is a size I don't do very often but it's a lot of fun!

This set is from the Sale-a-Bration free items!

Can you tell I really like this hydrangea set?!

Pretty amazing bunch of cards for just $20!  Join us next Sunday, January 30, from 2:00 - 5:00 if you'd like to get in on the fun - make sure to RSVP first!!!  Also, I may be holding a class on Thursday, Feb. 3, from 9:30 - 12:30.  Check back to see!
