Welcome to 2017

Time has flown by so rapidly.  How quickly the calendar pages turn over each month.

We are at the end of the Holiday Catalog period, orders can be placed until January 3rd but only while supplies last.

These thinlits and framelits are included in the year-end close-out but they are discounted overstock products.  On January 4th they will return to full price, so do not wait to grab these items and save!  Click on the image to see these items in my online store.

Open House and Customer Appreciation

This is a free event, you can plan to come for an hour anytime during the event.  If you RSVP, I will prepare a special gift for you!  Bring a friend and share stamping with them.

Birthday Card Buffet

Coming up on Saturday January 21 is a birthday card buffet to get you stocked up for all your birthday needs this year!  How does it work?

I will design 10 cards and number them, then post them to you, my customers. You choose which cards you want to make and how many of each card. I cut everything for you and when you come to class you stamp and cut out everything for each card and assemble ONE of each at class. The rest is homework, but you have everything you need already, you just glue it together. I will have a max of 20 cards you can choose and I charge $35 for the class.  I hope this sounds fun and efficient to get stocked up for 2017!

Online Orders

You can order with me directly or you can order through my online store.  Please use this hostess code: YK4MN3MK for any online order that is less than $149.  The online store can be viewed HERE.

Happy New Year, enjoy the time with your family and I'll see you soon at the Open House!

Team Swap #13

Here we are at the last week for the Holiday Catalog Team Swaps! 

Betsy Lang made this team swap using the Candy Cane Christmas stamp set.  You can see the set HERE.  The sentiment comes from the Tin of Tags stamp set, here.  Both of these stamp sets are currently discounted and slated for retirement.  So now is a great time to scoop them up for your stamp collection.

• Retiring item availability will follow standard retiring item rules:

        • Retiring stamp sets are guaranteed available until December 

        21, after which they will be only available while supplies last. 

        • Retiring accessories will only be available while supplies                last. 

The closeouts continue while supplies last.  Be sure to shop here and grab your favorites.  There are also several current items that have excess stock - they are discounted until January 3rd.  On January 4th they will go back to normal pricing.

I will be starting this series again in January to showcase designs from the Occasions and Sale-a-bration catalogs.  I'm looking forward to sharing more team swaps with you!

Have a Merry Monday,

-Janey

Serving Others, Shop from Home, Gift Cards, January

Last night was my second year to join a service project for Chrysalis.  Chrysalis provides a safe, loving Christian environment for women coming out of incarceration, addiction, and abuse.  My church gathers their wishlist for their children.  These are posted anonymously on our Impact Tree for people to commit to shop and provide those items.  Then we gather for a Christmas party to deliver the gifts, share dinner together, wrap the presents, make gift tags and wish them a Merry Christmas!

We arrived after a day of snowshowers.  It was a quintessential wintery scene for a Christmas party.

Gifts are stacked up and waiting.  Food arriving for dinner.

The team members waiting for the residents to arrive after their work day.

The ladies were so excited to open the bags and start wrapping gifts for the children in their lives.

I prepared elements for making gift tags.  I coordinated, stamped, cut, and punched so it was quick and easy for them to assemble the tags they selected.  They really enjoyed making the tags and it was fun to chat while they learned about tape runners and tying ribbon.

Here is a gift all tagged and read to be given!

My heart is full of admiration for these ladies as they work hard to make a new life with goals and dreams.  I am so grateful to have spent the evening with them.


Today is the last day to shop with Stampin' Up! and have your product order arrive in time for Christmas.  And we have so many great deals on close-out and even several current items are discounted due to excess stock.  So don't miss out shopping your favorite stamping tools and supplies.  Shop HERE.

Did you know that you can buy a gift certificate from me and they can order from out of state?!?  Stampin' Up! is great way to give creativity and the order goes to their door.

You can also purchase a gift subscription to Paper Pumpkin in various time-lengths.  And I will send you a printable gift card to present the subscription.

Mark your calendars NOW to join me in January!

Team Swap #12

Here we are at Monday and time for another Team Swap reveal!  Just to recap this series: each catalog my team and I swap card fronts to widen our collection of beautiful designs to share with you, our customers!  I love my team mates and that we can collaborate and have fun together.

This was made by Jael Komac using the Glamper Greetings stamp set.  The flamingo, wreath, and palm tree are such a fun touch for Christmas in warm weather.  This set offers so many accessories for your glamper - you can be stylish in so many seasons!

These are designs made by Stampin' Up! and featured in the online store, aren't they fun?!?

Did you know that most of my team are here for the discount and never blog, advertise or hold a class?  You can read about the options HERE and see which type appeals most to you.  It is your choice! And HERE is where you learn a few more details.  I would love to have you join my team and collaborate our creativity.
Happy stamping!

Team Swap #11

Welcome to another Team Swap Monday!  This week will be two swaps to help fan the excitement for Christmas cards!

This swap was made by me using the Star of Light bundle.  The thinlits have beautiful, detailed stars; and the stamps have a gorgeous celestial swirl as well as several stars and a beautiful font for sentiments.

I used Island Indigo, Night of Navy and Whisper White in the paper and inks on this card.  This stamp and thinlit bundle is a lovely addition for cards and papercrafts for gift packaging and decor projects.

Patti Back made this swap featuring the Cookie Cutter bundle.  The gingerbread house is cut out of the Candy Cane Lane Designer Series Paper.  This stamp and punch bundle makes several whimsical characters. 

I hope you have enjoyed today's swaps. There will be two more cards to share in this Team Swap Monday series. In January I will feature our new Occasions and Sale-a-brations catalog swaps.  I love doing swaps with my team to learn from each others' creativity creates a positive energy and so much fun!  I would love to have you join my team, there are details here and you are welcome to contact me.  We have a LOT of fun and love connecting from all over the country.
