Sep 10, 2012 | cards, rubber stamping
wow – look at that – a whole week since I last posted?! APOLOGIES!! It's been a bit of a whirlwind trying to get back into routines – back to school, back to regular activities…and then there were some server issues which (fingers crossed) are hopefully resolved.
Anyway, I'm back to share this card with you that class and club members will be making this month. I love monochromatic cards for their ease of production and elegance. This one features Pool Party, one of my favourite shades of blue. It is an In Colour 2011-2013 so that means I still get one more year with it before it retires, so I'm making the most of it! This card uses the coordinating Pool Party ruffled ribbon and the set Affection Collection from the Holiday Catalogue.
If you are interested in becoming a club member, you can contact me for information. The current club season is starting NOW but you can start at any point for a six month period. If you are like some of my customers who are snow birds, your other option is to attend my monthly card classes when you are able. See my classes and events page for more information.
A final reminder that if the server has issues again, you can also get a hold of me through Twitter or Facebook. Plus, if you become a "fan" of the facebook page, you get access to a free video tutorial!!

I know it's not "official", but to me, Labour Day weekend is the end of the summer. (I'm sure that many teachers & students would agree with me?! LOL). I hope that you have been able to spend some time with friends and family relaxing this long weekend!
Just a quick post to let you know that I've adapted the schedule slightly for my Christmas Stamp a Stacks – I previously added in some weekday evening times, and I have moved the December Stamp a Stack from Sunday December 2nd to Saturday December 1st, still at 1pm. This is because the Burlington Santa Claus Parade will be happening on the Sunday at 2pm, and my son will be marching with the Junior Redcoat band so I'll be out there supporting him as well.
If you are looking for some activities for yourself or your crafty offspring, please consider attending one of my many card classes, or hosting a class yourself! I have a variety of times available – please contact me to set something up. All you have to do is provide the people and I'll do the rest! It's a fun girls night out/in :)
Lastly – my monthly email newsletter will be sent out tomorrow morning, so be sure to be subscribed to get the latest issue!

How cute is that image?! Stampin' Up! has a special for September – a free spool of 3/8" stitched satin ribbon for every $50 of merchandise that you order. Each roll of ribbon is valued at $12.50 but you will get it for free! Choose from one of the new In Colours – Gumball Green, Midnight Muse, Primrose Petals, Raspberry Ripple or Summer Starfruit.
Hope that you are enjoying your long weekend (the last of the summer – how did that happen already?!). If you are looking to go back to school, consider attending a card class with me! My next monthly card class is THIS Wednesday, September 5th at 7pm here in Burlington. Cost is $20 and includes all supplies and envelopes – all you have to do is show up! Your class fee is waived with a minimum $35 order – but heck, you should make it $50 to get a free roll of ribbon!!! Contact me to register in advance & get directions if you haven't been here before. See you in class!
