Oct 6, 2016 | Business Opportunity, Stampin' Up!
If you’ve ever wondered about having a home based business or earning extra income doing something you enjoy, please RSVP to attend my Information Night on Wednesday, October 12 at 730pm in Burlington ON. You’ll learn why October is a great time to become a Stampin’ Up! Canada demonstrator with my group, and what I can offer you in terms of support and training. It’s truly great to be able to set your own schedule and financial goals, and to have flexibility to change the intensity to which you are working. Christmas coming and want to splurge, or Christmas has passed and want to cover the bills? Have a few more card classes or sell a few more handmade items. Need a bit of down time with the family? Arrange your work schedule around your life! Come and find out more. I was one of the first 100 Demonstrators in Canada, and have a team that covers many cities and a few provinces. I’d love to have you join our group, called the “Eh” Team. If you aren’t able to make it to the Information Evening but are interested in hearing more, check out this summary page, and please contact me to arrange a time to chat online/in person at a mutually convenient time.

Starting on Wednesday!! It’s the Twelve Weeks of Christmas from YamStamps! This annual special for my mailing list subscribers features exclusive paper crafting projects that will not appear on the blog, facebook page or instagram – only in the special mailings. Starting October 5th and continuing until December 21st, you’ll get a project a week, complete with photo, supply list and instructions. This is in addition to the regular monthly project emails – the October newsletter comes out on October 4th, and then the first of the twelve weeks will be out October 5th. Click on the image or use the box at the top of the blog to register for these emails, then watch your inbox for them! Please contact me if you have any questions.
Oct 1, 2016 | cards, specials, Stampin' Up!, Tutorial
To celebrate the art and craft of handmade cards, Stampin’ Up! Canada is offering up some deals! The In Colour cardstocks and papers, Envelope Punch Board, Designer Tin of Cards kit and Fast Fuse adhesive are all discounted until October 5th.
In addition, there is a Designer Series Paper promotion until the end of the month!
Pretty self explanatory, right? This special does NOT include Specialty Designer Series Paper or stacks, but everything else is fair game. This cannot be included in a Starter Kit selection. Please let me know if you have any questions or need assistance placing an order. I will be sure to feature some projects and ways to use the Designer Series Paper in your crafting in the next few weeks.
Last but not least….
Here’s a downloadable card making tutorial for the Embellished Ornament Card above as a thank you for visiting. Happy Cardmaking Day!

This fun card was one of the ones we made in the September Christmas Card Class! Attendees received the Baker’s Twine Trio pack as part of their class, and we used some of the twine on the cards in class, and the rest (there was a LOT lol) went home with them for other projects.
Cookie Cutter Christmas is a photopolymer stamp set that’s available on its own, or as part of a discounted bundle with the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch. There’s also a coordinating Halloween set available – Cookie Cutter Halloween – available in wood mount or clear mount.
There’s still time to register for the October Christmas Class which will feature some non-traditional colours – the product included with the class fee will be the Fancy Frost Sequins and a share of a Glitter Ribbon Combo Pack. Please register by October 12th for the class on October 26. As always, we use a portion of the product in class, and then the class attendees take the rest home. See all the upcoming events on the YamStamps Events Page and register before the deadline! Please contact me if you have any questions. Hope to see you in class soon!

Happy First Day of Autumn – though around here it was pretty warm…I hear that’s going to change this weekend though?! These fun samples are made with the Stampin’ Up! set Totally Trees and while great for this season, can be adapted for any of the four seasons you wish! I though this was a great image to share today.
Stampin’ Up!’s Special Offers have finished for now – but don’t forget that the Clearance Rack is still up and items are available while supplies last. In the meantime, I’m off to finalize designs and prep for September’s Christmas Card Class. If you would like to join me for the October Class – please be sure to register & pay before October 12th. The October Christmas Class will include a package of Fancy Frost Sequins and a share of a Glitter Ribbon ComboPack. We’ll make seasonal cards with these non-traditionally coloured glitzy items! As always at classes where product is included, I’ll prep all the projects and product required and have it ready for you at class – use it to make the class projects, and take the remainder home with you! Upcoming events and classes can be found on the YamStamps Event Page. Don’t forget that if you can’t make a class date, get a group of friends together and I will bring the class to you! (well, within reasonable driving distance of Burlington ON!) Hope to see you in class soon!
