July Stampin' Updates

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to let you know what's happening in July. We're doing some really cute projects so be sure to watch the blog for pics! I also wanted to let you know that if the class times are inconvenient for you (i.e. you get out of work at 4:30 PM or 5 PM, etc) and would like to come in between sessions before going home, please feel free! Just let me know when RSVP'ing. You are always welcome to bring a friend with you as long as you let me know in the RSVP too. The more the merrier!

July brings us a new Stampin' Up Idea book with tons of great new products and colors!! BE SURE TO WATCH MY E-MAILS AND BLOG FOR SPECIALS ON NEW PRODUCTS ALONG WITH SOME AWESOME CHRISTMAS IN JULY DEALS!!

Tuesday, July 7th - 2 Scrapbook Pages for $5. I'll only be doing one session on this particular day at 6:30 PM. I have a dentist appointment at 3:45 PM and am afraid I won't be home in time for the 4 PM session. Rescheduling could take months at the dentist.......so I better just go and get it done! We will be doing two summer pages. I'll be posting pics on the blog by Sunday, June 28th. Just bring your adhesive, scissors, and pics. Everything else is provided for you. RSVP Deadline for the scrap workshop is Wednesday, July 1st.

Tuesday, July 21st - Faux Alligator Purse with 8 Notecards for $10. There will be two sessions for this project, with the first at 4 PM and the second at 6:30 PM. You'll be making a little black and pink faux alligator purse with 8 matching notecards. It is so cute!!!

All you need to bring is adhesive and scissors. Everything else is provided for you. I'm going to try to have this project posted on the blog this weekend too, but I'm out of town for a work conference Tuesday-Thursday, have a boyscout outing on Friday night, and am invited to 2 weddings, a grad party and a surprise 50th on Saturday. I'm hoping that Sunday will be my day to play! RSVP deadline for this session is Wednesday, July 15th.

Saturday, July 25th - Christmas Cards in July! Get a jump start on your holiday cards. We will be making 20 cards, 4 each of 5 different designs. This session will take 2-3 hours and will start at 9 AM with a light breakfast. Cost to attend the morning session is $25. If you'd like to stay for the afternoon (until 4 PM) and work on additional projects of your own (scrap pages, cards, etc), bring your supplies along! I will provide lunch and a space for you to work. Cost to attend the entire day is $30. I will have the cards posted on my blog by Monday, July 13th. RSVP deadline is Thursday, July 16th.

Finally, if you ever need help with ideas for invitations, cards, scrap pages, techniques, etc., please don't be afraid to ask. I love playing with all my supplies!! Take care and enjoy what the weatherpeople are predicting to be our start to the summer. FINALLY!
