Carol is hosting us at her apartment complex which is very close to my house in Sun Prairie. She has reserved the community room so there is space to spread out on the tables. Please let me know if you can join us so I have your Make and Take kit ready. Invite a friend to attend with you!

The cost to attend is purchasing a kit using Carol’s host code which will be shared on March 17th via email. So click the Contact button above and let me know you would like to join us so I can send the email with the host code and location details.

We have lots of kits for sale through the online store in the Kits Collection section including the one featured on the flyer. All online kits are while supplies last. If you would like to order prior to March 17th, use this link to order which should take you to the Kits Collection section in the online store. If I see a kit on your order and you are local to me, I will know to email you the event details so you are not just driving around Sun Prairie looking for the stamping party 😉

Looking forward to stamping with you then!

Our event host, Carol, and I thank you for joining us!

P.S. If you follow me in Facebook, you know I am decorating all sorts of sweet treats. I might just bring one for you to taste test!

You’ll find some new friends and returning favorites among our Brights, Neutrals, Regals, and Subtles. And you won’t want to miss our new 2023–2025 In Colors. We hope you’re as excited as we are to start crafting with these fresh new colors!

I’ll let you know as soon as I know what is retiring. Please be advised that all products pertaining to the color refresh are will supplies last.
