almost finished

My office is almost finished.  Yeah.  I am waiting patiently for the UPS man to deliver my package of goodies.  I have visions of the things I can make with my goodies.  The things I can show you how to make.  I just can't wait.  It is like being a kid and waiting for Christmas.  I am hoping that I get them Friday but it will Saturday most likely.  But I am hopeful.  I might post a project tomorrow if I get to be creative today or tomorrow.  So check back.

New stuff for us

I just placed my large order of stamping goodies for the next few months workshops, demos, and classes.  With Sale-a-bration going on, I got tons of stuff for free.  I got 13 stamp sets, 7 punches, 4 ink pads, 3 riibons, and 2 designer paper packs.  I can't wait for the UPS guy to get here with my stuff.  So check your calenders and figure out when a good time for you to host a workshop is.  Lets get together with your friends and stamp. I can't wait to show you all the new goodies and techiques.  You can reach me at mistismemories@yahoo.com.  I gotta go finish organizing my office so all this stuff will fit and I can design some projects.

Hooray New Year, new catalogs, and new promotions!

Happy new year.  I hope everyone of you is going to have the best year ever.  I don't set resolutions for myself, but i do set goals.  For the next 3 months I want to do 3 workshops a month, and get the stamp club started.  To help me reach my goal I am offering special incentives for those who help me reach these goals.  From now on, there will be a special Thank You gift for everyone of my hostesses, and from now untill March 31 (which coincides with Sale-a-baration), every hostess that books a party in that time will have a chance at a Stampin' Up! product $12.95 or less.  And the first to book a workshop with me will get another gift just for being the first.

As if that is not enough, tomorrow January 5, starts Sale-A-Bration.  This is an annual Stampin' Up ! event, that is a wonderful chance to get more for free.  There are 3 ways to earn free products.  Yes I said 3.

1. Buy $50 (before taxes and shipping) and get your choice of Sale-A-Bration product.
2. Host a workshop that has sales (before shipping and taxes) of $300 or more and earn 1 free Sale-A-Bration product in addition to the regular hostess benefits offered, and my incentives for you. (See above)
3. Become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator (like me) and earn a free stamp set from the Idea Book and Catalog $47.95 or less (hostess sets not included)

This is an awsome oppertunity for my customers that I really don't want you to miss. And on top of it all... There is a new mini catalog with all new products!  The Occassions mini catalog is out tomorrow.  It has wonderful products in it for Valentines, Easter, Friendship, Mother's Day, and more.  You have to see it to believe it. 

I am also planning a special kids Valentines Stamp Class so they can make their Valentines for school.  I wil have more details on that shortly.

I still haven't got my office squared away yet, but it is getting closer and tomorrow I am ordering a bunch of new products from Stampin' Up!  So by the time they get here, my office will be squared and ready for so serious stamping.

Have a wonderful and creative day.

It looks like one more week.

This weekend my sweet husband decided the little room I had my office/ craft studio in was way too small.  So he took everything out of the dining room and is in the process of moving me completely in there.  I am so happy because the old office doesn't have heat or a/c.  He is such a sweet husband isn't he.  So this week, we are packing up the old room and moving me into the new room. With it being a short week to begin with, I don't expect that I will be able to have a project out this week.  I am so sorry about that.  I will be back the week after and if all goes as planned I will have a new project before the year is out.  If not it will be the New Year. 

Have a very blessed Christmas or holiday.  Have a great new year too.(just in case)

Bitter Sweet Day

Sophie is my last baby.  We are not having anymore babies.  Today Sophie turns a year old.  I am happy that she is getting bigger and growing so much, but at the same time it makes me sad to see the same things.  I got teary making her cake yesterday.  I cried when I put her to bed.  But I will be so happy to see her grow.  Happy birthday to Mommy's little princess.

i haven't been very good.

I am so sorry.  I know I promised a project a week, but I had a workshop and a stamp camp last week.  This week, I have Sophie's first birthday and her party.  I plan on possibly posting a project on Friday.  Sorry.
