TODAY'S OPEN HOUSE

Hi Stampers!

Sorry I have been a bad blogger since returning from vacation. But we got back and about the time I finished the Mt. Olympus size pile of laundry, we had Steve's aunt come visit for about 4 days. She left this past Thursday, which left me only a couple of days to get ready for my SU Retirement Party Open House today. I have certainly THOUGHT about making a post, but never was able to sit down and get one down.....until now.

The card that I am going to share with you is the card that we made at the Open House as our Make-n-Take. It uses the retiring stamp set "Enjoy Every Moment" and retiring colors Ballet Blue and Summer Sun.....my eyes are beginning to tear up just thinking about no more Ballet Blue :-( BUT....I also CAN HARDLY WAIT for the NEW COLORS that are coming out on July 1!!!!! I have a feeling that Marina Mist is going to quickly turn into a "favorite"!!!
The pearl in the middle of the "O" is not SU....But I am soooo jazzed because SU is coming out with packets of pearls!!! WhooHooo!!!! They are retiring the Pretties kit and kinda breaking it up.....selling the flowers and pearls separately. SUPER EXCITING!!!!

There are only days left before the NEW 2010-2011 Idea Book & Catalog goes "live".....so if you either want to order from the 2009-2010 catalog or need a 2010-2011 catalog....you can either contact me directly (for the new catty....I have them and are selling them for $5) or order from my SU website for Last Chance items.

In the next few days, I'm hoping to get it together and introduce my new MONTHLY ONLINE STAMP CLUB KITS.....I got this idea from another SU demonstrator and I'm going to try and have it up and running by the first of August. These kits will include supplies and instructions to make 2 cards and will be shipped directly to you. So....once I get all the details finalized, I'll be posting them.

I'm excited about the new things I've been cookin' up for this next year!! So, stayed tuned!!!

Well...that's it for me today. I need to get cleaned up from my Open House.

Until next time, find some time for stamping!!


Blessings......Cindy

BACK FROM VACATION

Hey Stampers!!!

Well, we are back from our vacation and boy, do I feel "out of the loop" in the stamping world! This is a very busy time of year......with Stampin' Up! retiring a BUNCH of stuff and the new catalog coming out on July 1.

And speaking of SU retiring a bunch of stuff......here is a link to the updated Last Chance Accessories List....LOTS of items are already sold out, which means they are no longer available!! There are also links on my right side bar to the other Last Chance Lists.....So, be sure to look them over and if there is anything that you REALLY REALLY want, you can go directly to my SU website and place an order.

Well....I just wanted to "check in".....I will be back later once I get things around here more in order. Vacations are GREAT....but getting back home is equally GREAT!!!

We had an absolutely WONDERFUL time touring around the west seeing a bunch of National Parks......like the south and north rims of the Grand Canyon, Natural Arches, Monument Valley, Mesa Verde, Montezuma's Castle and I think a couple of others that are escaping my memory right at the moment....but LOTS!! They were all breath-taking! We have an extraordinarily beautiful country and we were thankful to be able to see a small portion of it. Oh, we also stopped at some quirky spots like the "Hole in the Rock".....a big house in Utah that they blasted IN the side of a rock mountain. We also went to a western show at the Bar M Chuckwagon.....we watched a gun-fight in front of the saloon, ate a cowboy supper on tin plates, and then watched an AWESOME cowboy show with some extremely talented singers and muscians....it was total FUN!!! Once I download our gazillion pictures.....I'll post some highlights.

Until next time, find some time for stamping!!


Blessings......Cindy

SAY GOOD-BYE

Hi Stampers,

Well....here it is....the LAST CHANCE LIST!!! I am only going to post links to them....because they are pretty long!

The items on the Accessories Last Chance List are on a WHILE SUPPLIES LAST basis.....so once an item is sold out...it's gone for good!!! So, if there is something you really want.....you better snatch it!

Last Chance Lists:


~ Accessories ~ Some things are 25% OFF!!!

~ Definitely Decorative ~ Check out the items that are 25% OFF!!

OK....well, while you are looking through these lists.....I am off to spend the day chaperoning my children's school end of the year trip to Island Water Park!

Until next time, find some time for stamping!!


Blessings......Cindy
