Christmas Cards



CHRISTMAS CARD WORKSHOP
Friday, November 6
10:00 am - 12:30 pm

Create 19 beautiful, unique Christmas cards, a treasure to give and much prettier than a box of store bought cards.

Here is a sampling of the Christmas cards I created over the last week. It took me five complete nine-hour days to cut, design and create the cards using the Stampin' Up Scrappin' Christmas Jingle Kit.

The cost of the card making class is $35 and will include my designs, instructions, use of my stamps, inks, Big Shot exclusive dies, hand punches, 19 card bases, envelopes and all the extras needed to complete the 19 cards. Extras include brads, dimensionals, ribbon and cord. All you would need to bring is your enthusiasm and adhesive.

If you are interested, please email me. Payment deadline Monday, October 19.

The pdf paper layout instructions are available for purchase at $10.

Special prayers for a little girl..

...I have been asking for prayers for a little girl from our neighborhood that was injured over the weekend.




I created a penny spinner card (my first, not my best work) and a candy treat to cheer her up while she is recovering.

How to host a Stampin' Up! Workshop

A Stampin' Up! workshop is not your average Tupperware Party where your friends leave with a lighter bank account. At a Stampin' Up! workshop your friends will leave with something they created by themselves. You won't be an audience watching someone talk about each product; you will be getting a hands-on experience on stamping. Stamping is a great relaxing hobby and it is SO EASY. Stampin' Up! has great products to help you.

Are you ready to enjoy and create with your friends? Follow these easy steps:
  1. Call me at 205-221-5619 or email me
  2. Pick a day that works with your schedule for a workshop in your home
  3. Decide what your would like to create: card, party favor, gift
  4. List forty friends in 4 minutes and send invitations to ALL of them
  5. One day before workshop, call your friends to remind them
  6. Prepare a light dessert, sit back and let me do the rest

The Workshop

  1. Receive a free Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalog
  2. Learn the art of stamping
  3. Enjoy the fellowship with your friends
  4. You and your friends will learn to create easy paper craft items
  5. I am not a sales person, I am someone who enjoys stamping and loves to share my love of crafting. I do not pressure your friends into purchasing from me.
  6. Have an opportunity to receive free Stampin' Up! products

Are you responsible for your next women's club meeting? I am available to come to your next meeting - it won 't be your ordinary meeting; everyone will get an opportunity to create something fun and cute. Call me about arranging a class for your next club meeting.
