I'm Happy Stampin'

This Friday July 2nd. We will be making 3 cards and refreshments will be served. I will have new catalogs available for $5, free with any $30 purchase or for joining a stamp club. There will be door prizes and everyone attending will receive a new color sample sheet. I will also have available for sale all of my retired stamps, ink, and ribbon. Hope to see you there, please RSVP by June 30th by email or phone, so that I may have enough samples available. Happy Stampin' Tricia

Here is the picture of the roladex we made at my last stamp camp. It is perfect for keeping track of birthdays and anniversaries. This one features Cottage Wall dsp. The class was great fun. If you would like a kit please email me. They are $15 each and include the stamped images, designs will vary to cardstock and paper I have on hand. Be sure to RSVP for my next mini stamp a stack by July 10th. We will be stamping 10 cards using new products from the *NEW* catalog. The cost for supplies is $15. Happy Stampin' Tricia

To know me is to know I stalk the dollar spot at my local chain store (that is right up the street). SU! says we can't name stores so email me if you have questions ;). Anyway, I found this clear clipboard for $2.50 and fell in love. I knew when I saw it that I wanted to attach my paper to the back so it would show through. Now the clipboards did also come in pink and blue I believe, both transparent as well. But clear was my favorite. This took me about 3 minutes to make, it measures 12.5 x 9, which is why you see the solid strip of pumpkin pie at the bottom. I did attach that to both front and back. I used my sticky strip to attach all of my paper, you can still see it slightly. The last touch was a scrap of white satin ribbon that was sitting on my table.

I cannot believe the end of the year is here already. It seems like we just got the new catalog. Alas, the time has flown and we are getting ready for the new 2010-2011 catalog to debut. So out with the old as they say. All retiring items are available only as supplies last. Some items you will notice are not retiring completely but will be reconfigured in the new catalog. These items will have an asterisk by them. I will update the lists on the side bar as items sell out, so please check back. I am taking orders by email or phone so please contact me and I will place your order asap so you do not miss out. Iwill try and combine orders together so you do get a discount on shipping and handling whereever possible. Also, please check out the SU!clearance rack some retiring items are 25-50% off. Happy Stampin' Tricia

Happy Memorail Day!

Just to let you know, my Stampin' Up! demonstrator website will be down until after the new catalog comes out in July. This website however will be updated regularly. We are quickly coming closer to saying good-bye to some of our old favorites. The availablitiy of the retiring colors will not be guaranteed after may 31st. I do want to let you know Sage Shadow in 12 x 12 is no longer avaialable so it looks like things may be gone before the end of the month. Much of the retiring merchandise is on back order as well. Here is a link to the list of retiring colors Fond Farewell . Please be sure to check out my upcoming classes and rsvp today. Happy Stampin' Tricia
