Christmas Countdown Class

Advent Calendars are a fun way to count down the holiday season so when I saw the new set 25 & counting in the mini catalog I just new I had to have a countdown class.

There are three different styles to choose from:

Peak-a-boo countdown
(featured in the holiday mini)

This fun advent calendar is featured on a 12×12 paper.  You can attach it to a board or magnet which ever you desire.  I haven’t quite finished it yet so it’s not very straight so please forgive me.  I’m going to be putting mine on magnet so I can reuse it each year.

This is a great calendar to create an activity calender.  Just write down a fun activity on the back such as: making cookies, building a snowman, Christmas Caroling or reading a story.  You can even put a different Christmas book down and read a book each day.  This is great if you have young children.

Cost- $15.00
Magnet Add on- $5.00
Additional Countdowns- $10.00

Candy Countdown

Don’t you just love this countdown.  It’s the perfect countdown to enjoy a little treat each day.  You may need to make one for everyone in your family.

This was an idea that they showed at our recent meeting and I new I just had to add it to this class.  Sorry I don’t remember who is was to give her credit.

Cost- $15.00
Includes Candy
Additional Countdowns- $10.00

Countdown Kisses

Who doesn’t love kisses and it’s even better when you get one everyday.  This fun countdown has cubicles for each day that holds a kiss.

I saw this countdown on our group site Stampin’ Connection. It’s a place for demonstrators to share ideas.  Just another great reason to be a demonstrator.  It was created by Brenda Quintana.

Cost- $15.00
Includes Kisses
Additional Countdowns- $10.00

 

You may sign up for as many countdowns as you would like.  Plan about 1 hour per countdown.  You will probably be faster if you are making multiples.  You may need to stamp and punch then assemble at home.  You can come anytime during the class hours just be sure to plan enough time to finish before 9:00 PM.

Managers Reception

I just got back from Leadership in Nashville TN.  It was so much fun.  This year I was able to attend my first ever Manager’s Reception.  It’s a special party for those who have earned the Manager’s title.  I was looking at the Stampin’ Up! website this morning and noticed that our picture was on it so I just had to share.

Starting from left to right is my Up-line Brandi Barnard, then Kristi, my other up-line Amy Johnson, Melanie, Me the Ashley and Wendy.  They took us to the Wild Horse Saloon.  The food was fabulous as well as the entertainment.  Plus the gave us all these fun hats and a new stamp set.

I have lots of fun ideas that I’m looking forward to sharing with you.  Thanks to everyone who helped me get here.

Crazy for Christmas 2010

First I must apologize for the delay in this post.  I work part time at a book store “The Book Table” as the General Books Manager.  On Wednesday night there was a fire in the apartment above our store and we had 5200 gallons of water flow down to our store.  This was two days before our annual Midnight Madness sale.  I ended up at the store way longer then I had planned for two days straight trying to get the store back together.  So my post was delayed.  For those of you are local thanks so much for your support Midnight Madness was a big success.

Since my Crazy for Christmas Class is this weekend I’ve decided to add in a few more times for those who are getting short notice.  Please let me know which day you are coming and about what time so I can plan accordingly.  If you plan to come this weekend I need to know what you would like to do ASAP.  I would like to get an order placed tonight or first thing in the morning.  I will be ordering a few extra’s so if you didn’t get a hold of me in time just let me know maybe I will have the stuff.

Class times:

Friday December 10th from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM

Saturday December 11th from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM

Friday December 17th from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM

Saturday December 18th from 10:00 AM t0 2:00 PM

Once again please let me know date and time when you register for your class.

In addition to the fun project there will be awesome sales on some of your favorite Stampin’ Up! products.  There will also be a fun project for everyone that comes.  So everyone is welcome to come and check out the sales and make a project even if you aren’t signed up for a class.

BONUS- I will be giving away $5.o0 gift certificates to the first 5 people that contact me with their project order.

Here are all the fun projects.  Please let me know which ones you would like to do and how many.  Remember some patterns may vary.

Rudolph Hanger- $2.00

Isn’t he so much fun.  The card will be a little different since this is an old sample.  Inside it says “Just Popin’ by with a Christmas HI.”  I filled it with microwave popcorn and some candy canes.  It makes a perfect gifts for neighbors.  The best part it if they aren’t home you can just hang it on their door for a great surprise.
