Reserve your spot in my Scrapbook Club now!!

Hi ladies!! I am so excited to be starting up my first Scrapbooking club, and I am going to be doing this a little differently from my Stamp Club! This club will be run as a NON-COMITTMENT club, and will run for a period of six months. Here is the info:

SCRAPBOOK CLUB (1st night to be determined):


Once a month we will get together and make a 2 page 12x12 Scrapbook layout, while learning different techniques and using different products from the Stampin` Up! catalogue.


8 spots available


Only $20 each month with the option of purchasing from the catalogue.(Cost includes all supplies, except adhesive, refreshments and door prizes)


Club members who place an order on the club night of $40 or more before shipping and handling) receive the class for free, but NO PURCHASE is neccessary!


If the sales for that club amounted over $200, I will put all the names of those who ordered into a hat and draw one name and the winner will collect the hostess benefits for that month's club night! (A free stamp set and a minimum of $20.00 in free product of your choice, from the catalogue.)


If YOU place an order of $200 or more on your own on the night of the club you receive the hostess benefits for your order that evening (FREE hostess stamp set and applicable FREE merchandise rewards). This means that you can gather orders from your friends and family and bring them to class and if your total is over $200 in merchandise - you receive the benefits!


You also receive your own copy of the 2009/2010 Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalogue (filled with tons of ideas!).


***Please do not bring photos with you to class (you can simply add them after class)***

If you would like to reserve your spot in this fun club, please email me at stampwithtess@hotmail.com to reserve your spot!

Also, please note that if you are out of town, I would still love to have you join! I could easily send you your supplies and directions through the mail, and if you are interested in ordering (anywhere in CANADA) we can talk via email to make arrangements! So don't let distance stop you!!

Stamp Club - August - Project 1!

Happy Tuesday Night! I am off to bed right away, but just wanted to post a set of card that I made tonight! This is actually the card my new stamp club group will be making on Saturday night, along with 2 variations that I made to go with it :) I think I like the one with the More Mustard added in....let me know what you like best!



Here is the card that my stamp club girls will be making on Saturday night:


I was inspired by a card that I saw on SCS for this one, using the Trendy Trees set. The colors are Old Olive and Whisper White.

Good afternoon ladies! I hope you all had a great weekend :) I know I did! I spent Friday night at a crop, at my Local Scrapbook Store with some friends, had a lazy Saturday and baked my husband a cheesecake on Sunday :) Monday morning came way too fast, if you ask me!!

Here is a card that I made at the crop on Friday night...

Happy Monday! Thanks for stopping by!!

Simply Adorned




Our Simply Adorned line beautifully combines the best of two worlds: stamping and jewelry! We designed our Simply Adorned charms to hold a creation you design yourself, making your jewelry truly unique.


Simply Adorned charms are lockets--they open up so you can insert your custom stamped image. The Charming stamp set, along with Rub-Ons, glitter, ribbons, and other embellishments, can help you create your unique charm insert. And don't forget that you can embellish the chains with ribbon, felt flowers . . . the possibilities are endless! The frame surrounds tempered beveled glass on the front and flat glass on the back. Because there's glass on both sides of the charm, you can display an image on one side or both. You can create a custom heirloom piece that you'll never want to change, or you can swap artwork in and out, depending on your mood and your wardrobe.


And although we designed Simply Adorned charms to be jewelry, they also make delightful key chains or Christmas tree ornaments. Insert a stamped image or photo of your loved ones, tie a ribbon through the clasp, and you're done!


Your customers--paper-crafters and noncrafters alike--will love the look of Simply Adorned and appreciate how easy it is to create custom jewelry. When you wear your own Simply Adorned necklace with artwork you created yourself, be prepared for questions about where you got it!
Our Simply Adorned line includes nickel-plated charms in three sizes and anodized stainless steel chains in two lengths.

A Color Challenge...

I played along with a challenge over on the SCS boards tonight...a color challenge :) The colors used are Green Galore and Gable Green. I added a little bling, and kept it pretty simple...I think it might make a nice wedding card! Let me know what you think, and feel free to pull out your greens and play along too! Leave me a link in the comments section of this post, so that I can see your creations too!




I am hoping to get LOTS of stamping done this weekend, and play along with a bunch more color challenges, so stay tuned!
