It's that time of year again! (sorry if I sound a little too excited…lol). I personally always liked going back to school to catch up with friends and go shopping for school supplies. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to have passed on to the next generation in this household….
First card class of the season is THIS WEDNESDAY at 7 pm. We'll be making a variety of cards to get you feeling creative…Registration required, class is almost full so RSVP ASAP to get a seat! $15 includes all supplies.
New this season – I'm offering a scrapbooking class. I have to admit a bit of a selfish reason for doing this….it's so I can try to catch up on MY scrapbooking!! If you're new to scrapbooking or just looking for some new ideas and layouts, this is for you, too! The first SB class theme will be "What I did this Summer". Cost is $40 and includes a complete Simply Scrappin' kit (we'll be using Pina Colada) and we'll be making a two page layout that evening. You'll have the rest of the kit to take home and use to create more pages! Register by Monday Sept 15th. Class date: Thursday, September 25th, 7-9 pm.
More announcements to come so stay tuned! www.yamstamps.com to keep up to date 🙂
(Oh and working on another video tutorial, hopefully will get it posted by next week!).

Just a post to say thank you to all who managed to make it to my new catalogue open house and retired rubber sale. It was fun! I'm now gearing up for the first stampers and scrappers club of the year – this Wednesday evening. I'm excited to offer the scrapbooking club option as up until now, it's just been cards. If you're interested in joining a future club, please contact me for more information or to get on the list!
I recently (as in just before the open house on Saturday….) put up my decor elements on my main level – a little something to add to an otherwise plain area between my staircase & basement entrace!
I was really pleased with how it turned out, and how easily and quickly it went up. We were able to practice applying these while at convention and I managed to pick up a few tips and tricks as well.
You'll be able to examine my handiwork close up if you attend a future class or club at my home! (hint hint – lol)

Woohoo! Stampin' Up!'s Fall-Winter 2008 Idea Book & Catalogue is being released today! What's even better is that there's a SALE on right now – click on the word sale to see the flyer – 15% off a number of sets until the end of September!
The online catalogue link should be active around 11 am EST (or is it EDT I can never get that straight). Of course, if you've RSVP'd for my new catalogue open house & retired rubber sale (this Saturday) – I've set aside a copy for you.
Note that beautiful scalloped edge on the catty! This one is spiral bound – perks of going to convention – getting the catalogue early, and getting a special spiral bound edition! All the more easy to drool over.

That’s the reason for the quiet blog this past while… I was at Stampin’ Up!’s 20th anniversary convention in Salt Lake City! Convention is a great time to catch up with friends from across the country and north america! Oh…and get the new catalogue and samples and news…
This is the convention bag we got this year – I think it’s my favourite one so far!! Of course the contents were fabulous as well – we received three stamp sets and the new catalogue!! Lots of great stamp sets and accessories to be had…
These photos are courtesy of my friend Sue aka my event roomie for the past six years. This year, Beth bravely roomed with us as well….and lived to tell the tale. LOL!
Big announcements at the convention this year – the biggest I think was the fact that Stampin’ Up! has teamed with Sizzix and will be offering the Big Shot come September!! Demonstrator preorder has already started….and I’m hoping mine will be here in time for my Retired Rubber sale and New Catalogue Open House on Saturday, August 16th! I will be offering a customer preorder special as well, so be sure to be on my newsletter mailing list for more information (next newsletter is out TOMORROW, Weds August 6th).
You won’t want to miss my open house – Stampin’ Up! is also having a SALE – 15% off certain BRAND NEW stamp sets and a STARTER KIT SPECIAL – choose any stamp set from the new catalogue in addition to the great deal in the starter kit!! Please contact me if you have any questions, and don’t forget that time is running out – get those retiring items before they’re gone FOREVER.
