We are spreading out at Carol’s for the Monday night paper crafting session. She lives about a mile west of me in an apartment complex that has a spacious, climate controlled community room on the first floor. Would you like to join us? The date is August 19th. The event starts at 6:30pm.

Card Buffet (click here for full event details) and Scrapbook with Me! (click here for full event details) will be available at Carol’s. RSVP and let me know which activity you would like to create. RSVP closes at 9am on Sunday so I have enough time to prepare kits.

You are welcome to bring friends! A new friend that has not stamped with me before earns you an extra card kit. If you are a member of my Super Awesome Stampers team, you get an extra kit too.

Place an order during the event or online prior to the event using Carol’s host code, 63QFBY44 and receive an extra kit.

Card designs feature NEW annual catalog products! I might be able to sneak in a fall/winter catalog design too. I’ll be having a design session this afternoon so not sure what I will come up with! All attendees will go home with a copy of the new fall/winter catalog too!

Please invite your friends! I reserve the right to cancel the session if less than 3 stampers RSVP.

Would you like a private session with your group? Just ask for dates!

Hope to stamp with you then!

Holiday Catalog Demonstrator Perk

Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Perk priority #1 today was placing a preorder of holiday catalog products! Lots of super fun products made it on my order including a fall leaf suite and snow things. I am sure my list will be longer once I get a copy of the catalog in my hands. I skipped adding Halloween products but I see we have premade coffin boxes!

My preorder product box will contain 16 copies of the holiday catalog. Would you like a copy? Plan on attending the August Card Buffet and go home with your personal copy. Click on Card Buffet on the right side of my blog for the August session details and RSVP today!

Pssttt…demonstrators receive 1 free copy of the catalog. Demonstrators who sign up to be a member of my team will received a copy in their starter kit. Plus, you may pick holiday catalog products to be included in your starter kit. As an additional bonus through the month of August, Stampin’ Up! is adding $30 to your starter kit dollars. THEN, you’ll receive a $10 coupon code the following month. Know someone who may be interested? You or that crafty friend of yours? Click the Contact button above if you have questions about how to sign up to be a member of my team.

So my holiday catalog pre-order is still being picked. I am sure that the picking line was fully staffed today. It’s fun to receive notification that UPS has picked up my product box and it’s headed my way! Call that Demonstrator Perk #2 and it’s almost better than a choco taco on a hot, summer day.

Ink and Share Scrapbook Blog Hop Butterfly Gala

July 31, 2019July 31, 201910 Comments

Welcome to the Ink and Share Scrapbook Blog Hop. We are Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators showcasing our fabulous products on scrapbook pages. Artistic license is the theme this month. Anything in the current annual catalog can be used to create our layouts. If you are on the hop trail, you may have arrived from Annette Ball’s blog. She had a great layout!

I highlighted the Magnolia Lane designer series paper along with the current butterfly stamp set and punch. Pretty Pink for background and photo mats makes this layout ideal for documenting vintage photos.

the supplies used…I see I forgot to include the circle punches in the photo. I used the 2 and 2 1/4 inch circle punches.

Did you know that we sell 12×12 inch solid color scrapbooking papers? It’s sold in assorted color packages which makes it nicely packaged for your scrapbooking needs. A few sheets of each color are included in a package. Plus our designer series papers are (mostly) sold in the 12×12 inch size as well.

Thanks for stopping by. Let me know what you like about my layout by leaving a comment.

Now click on the next photo to see what Cindy has created.
