"YOU" are Needed

Hello Stamper Friends,

Glad you stopped by today. It's meant for you to read the important information below.

My monthly hostess clubs are a time of fun and laughter for the members who belong.  The members enjoy the time  stamping and chatting with the friends made. Sometimes someone brings yummy treats or stamped samples to share.  I bring 3 - 4 projects for them to create. Once the stamping is done, then orders are placed. It really is like getting a free class for ordering the product you want.  You can read all the "fine details" below.

But BEST of all, each member can't wait till it's their month to be hostess. Why???...because that's when they receive all the FREEBIES OF THEIR CHOICE!!!

Currently, there are open slots in 2 of my clubs. Both clubs meet at my studio in my air conditioned home in Highland Park, which is just south of South Pasadena.

• First Sunday of month - 3 spots to fill - 1:00pm
• Third Friday of the month - 2 spots to fill - 6:30pm

If you are interested or have more questions, please give me a call or send me an email.

Fine Details:
As a member of a Hostess Club you will receive benefits, as well as commit to certain terms.
 
Benefits:

• Receive the current Idea Book And Catalog FREE!
• Receive any other catalog released during your membership term, FREE!
• Receive Hostess Spending Dollars for your month.  Hostess Spending Dollars are guaranteed for $25, the minimum for $150 in group sales, but usually is higher. Hostess Spending Dollars are based on the total sales of each club meeting.
• 3-4 projects each month - If you miss a meeting, you will still get your projects.
• Chance to win door prizes

Terms:

• Commit to the club for a minimum period of 6 months. Commitment time is based on number of members of the club. One month per member. If there are 8 members in the club, then commitment is 8 months, etc
• Commit to purchase a minimum of $25 in product (before s/h and tax) each of the contract months, whether you attend the meeting or not.
• Place orders on time (at the meeting, or before, if you know you can’t attend).

Ways to boost your sales when it is your hostess month:

• invite guest. Guest required to place a $25 order.  Please notify me if guest are attending so that I have time to make enough project kits.
• collect outside orders.
• Have a workshop or catalog party during the week prior to club date. Workshop and/or catalog sales will be added to your club sales for a higher grand total to give you more Hostess Spending Dollars.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Time for Christmas!

We "crafters" have to start early with all the creating we do to have our cards, projects, and gifts ready in time to give out to those lucky recipients. So without further ado, here is one of my first cards of the season.
This is one of the cards we will be creating in my October Hostess Clubs/Classes.

If you are not a club member, you can still attend as a class member. What's the difference? Well, as a hostess club member, one of the benefits is that you take turns with other club members to earn free goodies from the catalog. As a class member, you attend without making the same commitment that hostess club members are required to make. Class members come and go as they will, but they don't earn the freebies.

If interested or have questions, send me an email or call me to discuss. I would love for you to attend as a class member or join as a club member. My current clubs meet monthly on the:

• 1st Sunday - my studio Highland Park - 4:00pm (time possibly changing to !:00pm)
• 3rd Sunday - Stampin' From the Heart, LA (Culver City area) - 5:30pm
• 3rd Monday - Stampin' From the Heart, LA (Culver City area) - 6:30pm

I'm also available for private clubs and classes. Gather your girlfriends and family members and let's get the dates on the calender!! Call or email me!!

Thanks for stopping by. Come visit again soon!

Great Find

 

Take a look at this new website I found!! In my search to find the all wanted Michael's coupons, I stumbled across this website called Crazy About Deals. But not only do they update weekly with all the latest craft store coupons, they also have pet and retail store coupons. And not to forget Freebies for those of you with babies. I'm going to put (hopefully) their button on the right sidebar so you can access the site whenever you need it.

Off to double check supplies and pack for Hostess Clubs today. Later this week, I will post one of the 4 cards we will be doing today. We have a lot of fun in our monthly meetings. Here some info about monthly meetings....

• Join us or start one of your own. 
• All you need is 4 - 5  or more of your friends or family members. 
• Want to join but don't have a group, let me know, I can add you to a new group. 
• Meeting place can be your home or my studio! 
• Give me a call or send an email if interested. 

Also, don't forget, I offer Private Classes!!!

Now go stamp something.....

THE NEW CATALOG HAS ARRIVED!!!

It's here! The new Stampin' Up! Spring Summer 2009 Idea Book & Catalog has arrived. Let me tell you, IT'S GORGEOUS!!! I already know 3-4 (ok maybe 7-8) items that are an ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE, and then, my wish list begins. My must haves are a new scallop edged punch which looks like lace eyelet, a circle cutter, corduroy buttons in chocolate chip and other colors, two sizes of circles an flower brads in chocolate chip....AND, new exclusive designs for the Big Shot - Bigz Dies, texture plates, Sizzlits, and embosslits! I can't even begin to go into the stamp sets. The card samples and ideas are just beautiful, OMG, so much eye candy. For this reason alone, you need a catalog. Best yet, ALL the stamps are die cut! Yup, no more trimming stamps! Yippie! Just punch out, mount, and stamp. How easy can that be! (Do you think I've used enough exclamations points so far??!! I'm a just really excited, extremely excited! Okay, okay, I'll quit.)

For all of my hostess club members and those who schedule a workshop, your catalogs are FREE! (Just another reason to join one of my hostess clubs or have a workshop.). However, you can still purchase a catalog from me. The cost is $9.95, (shipping included), plus you will receive a $5.00 coupon valid on your first order placed within the next 30 days. Email me if you want one of these glorious catalogs.

UPDATED RETIRED ACCESSORIES LIST
