Stamp-a-Stack! Last Class of the Year!

Ladies, come join us for the last class of 2011!
This month, we'll have a special class on a special day.  On Tuesday, December 6 at 6pm we'll meet at my house for a Stamp-a-Stack class.  (If you can't make it at 6, come when you can.  This is just to give everyone a little extra time to work.)  Instead of making our usual 4 cards, you will make 4 each of the 4 following cards, so you'll be ready for Christmas!  That's a total of 16 cards!  (Be sure to bring your adhesive, scissors, and your stamina!)  Cost: Minimum $35 Stampin' Up order OR $20 for supplies.
Please RSVP to me NO LATER than Sunday Evening so I can have enough supplies ready for everyone.  If you do RSVP, it's important that you do come, because alot of supplies will be cut for you.  See you Tuesday!

Holiday Frame Class

Join us for our annual frame class and make a beautiful Christmas frame for yourself to decorate for the season or to give as a gift.

My house (Message for address)
Cost: $15  Bring your own scissors and adhesive.
Rsvp no later than Friday Nov 11 to reserve your spot.
Here is a picture of what we'll be making.  The picture is a little grainy, and it doesn't do this beautiful project justice.  Our frame will be white, red was no longer available.



Monthly Card and Project Class

Wow! With snow already piling up in the north (Thank goodness it's not here!) it's beginning to look a lot like...it's time to get to work!  At class next week, we're going to get a jump start on our holiday and winter projects so we're ready for them before they get here!  (Holidays always seem to sneak up on me and I'm never ready!)
This month's class will be a week later than usual.  I get to go home and see my mom!  Unfortunately for Rich, he has to work.  No fun for him...
Here's the details:
My house (message me for address)

All supplies will be provided for you.  All you need to bring is your own scissors and adhesive.

Please RSVP no later than Tuesday, Nov. 8.  It's important that you RSVP so that enough supplies will be prepared for everyone.  If you do RSVP, it's very important that you attend because a seat and supplies will be reserved for you.

And now, here's what we'll be making this month:

 

NC SU! Demo Holiday Hop 2011

It's finally here!  Jump on board for our first ever Holiday Blog hop.  You'll find amazing projects from some spectacular North Carolina Stampin Up! Demonstrators.
I chose to use the new SU! set 25 & Counting.  This really great new set has so many different uses.  First, I decided to make a shaker card (a neat technique I learned recently from a talented fellow demo Kathy Hunt) that uses the 25 stamp in the center of the shaker.

 Here's a picture of the 25 & Counting set available in the Holiday mini only until the first week of January.  Better Hurry!



I also wanted to feature this card.  We made it at our recent demonstrator quarterly meeting.  (I apologize, I didn't write down whose idea it was.)  It uses the new Peekaboo Frames Bigz L Die from the Holiday Mini and it coordinates so well with the 25 & Counting set.  It includes 5 window cutouts that add so much to your cards and projects. 

This is a picture of an Advent Calendar designed to use both the 25 & Counting set AND the window frames die together.  Our club will be creating these beautiful frames this coming month.  Please join us!

Thank you for stopping by to visit!  To win some great blog candy prizes, please leave a comment and tell me your thoughts and ideas for this versatile new set.  Make sure to leave your email so I can reach the winner.  I will use random.org to choose the winner from all comments left and announce the winner on Tuesday at noon!

If you're interested in any of the projects or supplies used here, please contact me and I would love to include you in our club that meets the first Thursday of every month OR I can help you place an order or get started with Stampin' Up!
