Mark your calendar! Stamp Club has been changed to FRIDAY. We will be meeting at house in Provo.
Hostess: Monica Thatcher

As usual, you will be making 2 projects.
Don’t forget that March is still Sale-A-Bration so for every $50 purchased, you get a FREE SAB item AND you will get entered into MY 123 Go Fish Promotion. (see previous post)

Anyone can attend club for a $5 fee or a $30 order. Invite your friends! Just be sure to RSVP to make a project. Contact me at spitwadlinger@aol.com

Ready or not, here we GO! Since it is Sale-A-Bration, I thought I would up the ante a bit and offer a bonus. For every FISH earned, you are entered into a drawing to win $50 in Stampin’ Up! merchandise offered by ME. This is NOT a Stampin’ Up! Sale. Internet orders will also count. I will update the MDS image and re-post as orders are received. The drawing will take place when the board is full. If it fills up faster than expected, I will start another board. I started this one effective Jan. 1

See image for details, click on image for enlarged version.

Get your name on the Fish list before February 28th to be entered into an additional drawing for a package of DSP of your choice ($9.95 value)

*You get 1 Fish for every $50 you spend (before tax & shipping)
*If you spend $150, you become the hostess of your own workshop. That doubles your chances and you earn 6 Fish!
*Don’t forget you get a FREE SAB item in addition to your Fish!
*You may win $50 Stampin’ Up! Merchandise of your choice.

Contact me via phone or email to get your FISH!

Do you know the trick to get your background paper to the right proportions? You load it on a punched area and then click on the re-size button to zoom in or out. It is my favorite MDS find so far. Don’t forget to click on the image for the full view.

I’m making this card for a swap and it turned out so cute I couldn’t wait to share! So sorry to any swappers that may check out my site. If you like surprises… oops!

You’re the first to see! I JUST finished putting this on the wall and had to post my success. If I could make one recommendation, it is to take it slow. Do not rush the process. If you purchase Decor Elements from me, I will come over and help you apply it. Do you want some of your own?!

Now is a great time to make a purchase! Have you been waiting to stock up on supplies? Do it now! From now until March 31st you will get to chose one FREE SAB product of your choice with every $50 purchase! This year that includes an additional selection of items from the 2009-2010 Idea Book & Catalog. See page 11 of the SAB Brochure (click on the 1st photo)

If you’re bored with the Idea Book & Catalog, check out the 2010 Occasions Mini (click on the 2nd photo). It features the new clear-mount stamps. That’s a rubber stamp on a clear block. Also featuring the new punch style (this is a change from the supplier). Check it out. There are just too many things for me to list. I could go on and on.

I thought it was time that I play with my MDS again. I have found that the best way to become familiar with the program is to try to create a layout by copying from someone else so I cut out some ideas from my old Stampin’ Success publications prior to 2007 and taped them into a notebook. Now I have a little reference book.

I met Grace when Joe (my brother) took me to see Seven Springs during my vacation to PA. This was taken a day or two after I left during their training. I love the beautiful fall leaves in the background combined with the crisp morning air of winter approaching. Brrr.
