Celebrating My Team

I have an awesome team of demonstrators, and this weekend we had our annual event to learn and celebrate them!  We call it The Stamp Therapists On Stage (using Stampin' Up!'s name for the event we can all attend every six months with SU!). 

This year's event was great!!  It's so fun for me to recognize, thank, and pamper them!

Here are some pictures from the event:

























Have a great day!

Paisley Christmas Tree Card


My Getaway Retreat weekend starts TODAY!  I'm very excited - it's always a fun getaway for ME!  We have fun pampering our guests and getting some of our own projects done!

There are always optional add on classes, and this card is part of the Copper Class.  I used the Paisleys & Posies Framelits to make a Christmas tree!  The topper is heat embossed with Copper Embossing Powder (image from Paisleys & Posies).  There's a pearl in the center, too.  The trunk is Early Espresso cardstock embossed with the Woodgrain embossing folder.

Have a great day!

Great Monthly Craft Class Weekend!

This weekend's classes were great!  Each month I have four classes to choose from - all at one time on a Friday night and Saturday morning.  Some people take one, others two, three, or all four!  Each month anyone can attend and take as many or few as you want! 

It's a great way to get your monthly crafting fix!  It's come and go style, so drop in when you want, just make sure you give yourself enough time to finish (some people come both days to finish everything).

Each month there is an RSVP link under Events above.  November's RSVP link will be coming soon.  Classes in November are November 18/19.  And, November will be the LAST Christmas Stamp a Stack of the year - can you believe it!!??  By December's class it will be a little too late for Christmas cards, so we'll do other themes (well, maybe ONE Christmas!).

Check out #monthlycraftclass on Facebook!

Here are some pictures from the fun!










Have a great day!!
