Sparkle and Shine Scrapbooking Kit

We have a special line of paper here only for the holidays (Sparkle and Shine) and we know that when it is gone, it is gone.  (Right now they have everything we need to do these layouts...so it isn't too late.  12-1-2014)  With that warning in mind, NOW is the time to buy this kit.  It is BEAUTIFUL and will make a great layout to display and/or to be tucked in your scrapbooks.  There is room for lots of pictures and the colors are WONDERFUL.  Diana adapted these from layouts done by Lynn Como and Dana Kesler and we are so happy with how they turned out.  Here are quick pictures of the pages and the card photos will be here soon.  I will be doing a Christmas Card workshop during the first part of December.  We meet in December on Tuesday Dec. 10 Orem, Wednesday December 11 (Mapleton) and on Thursday afternoon at 12:30 in Orem.

So for those of you who come to my classes or are on my long distance shipping list... you know that I have you pay in advance and then I have the paper cut and ready for you to put the pages together.  This is one of those months that you can buy 2 layouts.  Then if you want to put them together in Dec, Jan or Feb...no problem they are paid for and ready for you.  You could even do them as homework at your own personal crop.  If we get enough orders I could add an extra class and you can come twice.  I am concerned that if you wait, they will run out of paper, etc.  And we know you will want to do these pages, so let me know as soon as possible so I can order for you.

There is a special running right now that with a $100 order you can actually get the paper pack FREE, thus your kit is less than usual... heehee.  Do you want this for a Christmas gift under your tree?  No problem.  Have your parents, spouse, friend, sibling or whoever contact me and we will take care of it.

Usually we limit our kits to 1 accessory pack, but this one actually contains 2, thus changing my usual price point.   Both accessories are SO GREAT!!!!!! So there are a couple of options:

      *  for the two layouts as is with the dimensional elements and sparkle flourishes, the cost is $25. If you would like to do the bonus cards also, it is only $1 more...so $26.

      *  For the two layouts as is with the dimensional elements and NO sparkle flourishes, the cost is $19.  Add $1 for cards here too to take it up to $20. The sparkle flourishes are beautiful and I know you can't see them in the photo all that well, but they really add a great touch and are so festive. 

Hope to hear from you soon!!!!

Plates

So... I have been a consultant with CTMH for 21 years.  Yes....21.  My hope is to still be with them for another 15 at least.  What does this have to do with plates?  Well, back when I started doing this I attended conventions and one of the classes was on making plates using our stamps.  Actually you just stamp on a tissue and send the tissues to a company and they form a plate around the tissue with your artwork showing through.  Well, I found that lots of people liked doing these as gifts so every few years or so we get together and have a great time stamping plates.  I have 2 sets of plates for my family of 8.  Here is a photo of the two I did for me and Sam's.  When the kids were younger we used them as an indication as to where the kids were to sit.  Now we don't care whose plate we use.  Some people do a Happy Birthday Plate or a You Are Special Plate or a Cookies for Santa Plate.

Anyway, this is one workshop that I do that I really don't earn any money doing.  You can come and use my stamps and inks and create and then we send them in.  It helps to get several plates processed at once as the shipping starts out at $10 for only one plate.  It is also $10 for 20, so you can see by the math that it is better to combine our efforts.  I can't give you an exact price quote yet...it depends on how many plates we do.  I am guessing that the cost per plate will be between 6-7 dollars/plate...  I don't know how much the company has changed their prices since we ordered last.

So...if you are interested in doing some plates, e-mail me and let me know about how many you would want to do.  We will try to figure out a time to get together and have some stamping fun.  If you have stamps, etc. and want to get your tissue stamped at your home and your convenience, that is totally fine too.
