Sugar Cookie Socials Continue in 2021

January 3, 2021February 16, 20215 Comments

I love sugar cookies and always compare purchased cookies with my sister’s recipe. My sister recipe always wins! I follow her recipe when I bake my own but they never taste the same. I think it’s because she has a different terroir which is the countryside while I live in the city.

It’s tradition for my Mom and me to bake a batch to decorate for Halloween and then ugly sweater versions for the winter holiday season.

The ugly sweater versions started to make appearances during my January customer appreciation event. This year, I decided to move this event to December and host a zoom make and take social. Make and take packets were mailed out and much to my delight, stampers showed up to the zoom calls! It was such a good experience, I will be continuing this format.

The Sugar Cookie Socials will be held monthly on the 4th Wednesday of the month. Attend either session 9-10am or 6-7pm central time. How do you get an invitation to join the social? Purchase at least $50 (excluding shipping and tax) using the host code listed on the right side of my blog (current code is EUNVSZHN). If your order is over $150, do not use a host code so you can spend all the host rewards yourself. Either method will earn you an invitation to join the social for that month and snail mailed make and take packets from me. Order early in the month so there is time for me to prep your kits and for them to make the journey from my mail box to yours:) The kits will change each month and the designs kept a secret. I’ll ship your kits and email you the zoom call links automatically after your qualifying order is placed.

Introducing Suite of the Month!

January 1, 2021February 16, 20212 Comments

The January to June 2021 catalog and Sale-a-bration 2021 brochure should be arriving in your snail mail box soon. It’s filled with lots of super awesome paper crafting products that you can use in the comfort of your stamp space. Hide in the space all you want to, once you load up on the new goodies!

I have designated 5 product Suites that will end up on my shelves because of their unique punches, cute snail mail images, splashes of purple or because ice cream is the theme. Yes, ice cream has it’s own suite!!! Coming from a former Dairy Queen employee, a cherry dipped curly top is still my favorite DQ treat!

One product suite per month will be highlighted starting in January. I hope these suites are on your shopping list because you will earn a free make and take kit when you purchase the designated suites. Then meet me in Zoom to assemble the kits while I demonstrate where all the pieces go. If you miss the Zoom social, a Youtube link will be sent to you so you can assemble the kits at your leisure.

In addition, I am collaborating with other demonstrators across the globe that will be sharing 2 projects each using the same product suite. So you will get a bundle of ideas to use with the rest of your product suite by watching these videos. Super Sweet!

Please order early in the month if you want to participate in the Zoom socials since the socials will be held on the third Wednesday of the month, 9-10am and 6-7pm, central time. I will need some time to prep your kit and mail it to you. When I see an order come through with the designated Suite of the Month, I’ll ship your make and take kit to you automatically for that month.

You are welcome to order any and all of the suites on the same order as well so you can earn and spend all the host rewards. Reach $300 in sales (excluding shipping and tax) and earn the host only stamp set, Punch Party. If your order stays under $150 (excluding shipping and tax), please use the host code EUNVSZHN when ordering.

Here are the Suites being featured each month with links to my online store and using host code EUNVSZHN. All page numbers refer to the January-June 2021 catalog.

January – Snail Mail Suite, pages, 54-55, featuring those cute snails I mentioned!

February – Ice Cream Corner Suite, pages 48-49, a bright and warm color palette and ice cream cone punch!

March – Hydrangea Hill Suite, pages 18-19, 2 shades of purple pearls and purple acetate sheets!

April – Dandy Garden Suite, pages 24-27, a dragonfly punch in 2 sizes! Build your own suite to reach a minimum of $50 in orders (excluding shipping and tax). I will be using the Dragonfly Garden Bundle (stamp set and punch) for the make and takes. So you might consider purchasing this bundle so you can create along with me.

May – Oval Occasions, page 65, 2 sizes of ovals in one punch! Build your own suite to reach a minimum of $50 in orders (excluding shipping and tax).

If you are not interested in these suites, I’ll still reward you with a different set of make and take kits with a qualifying order through the Social Cookie Social program. Click here for details on the Sugar Cookie Social program.
