The New Year is Approaching

I wanted to thank everyone who have joined me at my classes in 2012.  I am hoping to add some more classes to my schedule in the new year.  These could include a Senior class for those 50 plus, a class for Advanced stampers, and a class for Beginners.  And last but not least I am hoping to do some Children Birthday parties.  These are a few of my New Year Goals.

In the New Year I will be participating in the Just Scrap It! January 19th Crop. I will be teaching a card class at this all day crop. I am super excited to meet some new card makers and some more experienced ones.

The next class on January 2013 will be the Love and laughter Card Class on the 24 at 7 pm. There will be Chocolate for snack and we will be creating two pink and red cards to get ready for Valentine's Day.  The class will be $10 for all supplies, snack and drinks.  This class will be open to everyone, beginners and Advanced card makers.  This class will be Free for anyone who makes a $60 order at the class and you will get an item from the Sale-a-bration flyer free.  Bring a friend and your next class will be $5 off.  Please pre-register for the class by January 14th so I can prepare all the supplies for the class. 

Thanks again! Have a Merry Christmas and all the best in the New Year!
Melissa

First Christmas Workshop of 2012

 

On October 27th we had a great workshop, my aunt was the hostess and did a great job bringing treats and drinks for her guests.  Most of the guests were new stampers and did a great job doing cards and making the projects their own.  The cards we made used the Joyous Celebrations stamp set from the Holiday Catalogue and the other card we used the Serene Silhouettes stamp set from the 2012-2013 catalogue. Both used the Embossing folders and the Big Shot wich has become my two favoite items to use from Stampin' Up!

 I will be starting my Christmas Card Classes on November 8th 2012 so please register ASAP to get your spot as their is a limit of 8 participants per class. 

Halloween Party

Thanks to everyone who came to my Halloween Card Party yesterday afternoon.  Sorry for the people who I could not make room for as we only have 8 seats (9 is tight) available for my parties and card classes.  I had a lot of fun teaching everyone the projects and enjoyed that most of the attendants were able to create their own versions of the projects.  Posted are the projects we made. This pumpkin card was made of the Jack of all Trades and  Delightful Dozen stamp sets.  This card project is great to put into a frame and place on your front door for all the Trick-or-Treaters to see.  The Candy bags with the Googly Ghouls Stamp Set is great to give to children on Halloween. 

My first Blog

Welcome to my first Blog.  I have been creating cards and scrapbooking for many years and a few months ago became a independent demonstrator of Stampin' Up! Now I have added stamping to my card making and scrapbooking.  I'm hoping to post lots of card pictures, my schedule for card classes, and many links to the Stampin' Up! specials.  Posted is one of the cards I have been working on for an upcoming Birthday.  Thanks everyone for taking time to view my first blog post,
Melissa
