THE 2023 YEAR ENDS...AND 2024 BEGINS!
For me the months of November and December flew by. At first, I was consumed with preparing and participating in the St. Timothy's Holiday Craft Fair. It only lasts one day, but it seems like I work on it for the entire year. Any spare time is spent researching new ideas, buying needed supplies, and finally organizing and creating new products for sale.
Next came Thanksgiving...we traveled to see our son and his family and enjoyed family and cooler weather brings us to December.
And of course, we're focusing on the tree. A few days into December my husband fell and ended up in the hospital and rehab center. So he hasn't seen the tree and I've spent December through the first weeks running back and forth to see him and taking care of our fur baby brown lab.
So finding time to do any stamping, posting, watching You Tube, etc., just didn't get to the top of the list.
It's New Year's Resolution time again...Organize my crafting supplies/room and be consistent on blogging and posting. Any recommendations on how to assure success? (Any suggestions posted below will result in a gift sent to you from me.)
My PaperCrafting class which meets bi-weekly is busy making cards with the new Lavender Designer Paper and coordinating Paper Pumpkin kit.
The New Year brings a new mini catalog. YES! The new Mini Catalog became active on January 4th and ends in April 2024. (See link to the right) Sale-a-Bration also started January 4th and ends February 29th. This is a great way to receive FREE items unique to the Sale-a-Bration brochure.
There's also a great new product only available as a selection when you JOIN! You can get to choose $125 products from any current catalog for only $99 and select the new product FREE. What's the new product? A GLASS MAT! It allows you to stamp on it, emboss on it, ink areas to use for blending, and so much more! It's a perfect size (although the cutter must be slightly slanted to fit). If this doesn't get your heart pumping, you can choose to select additional products. Interested? Select the button to the right and it'll take you directly to joining assistance.
Or, you can opt out purchasing the glass mat and select to purchase an additional $30 worth of product! What a WIN! And, you'll be able to get 20% off your additional purchases (after the starter kit) PLUS as Sale-a-Bration continues into February, as a demonstrator you'll be able to receive FREE items for every $50 or multiple of $50 you purchase! (Reminder: as you get 20% off the actual cost to you of items is $40 for demonstrators!).
PLUS! You have until June 2024 to meet your first $300 minimum purchase level. This means you can receive the 20% discount on all the items listed in the NEW!!! 2024 - 2025 Annual Catalog! And as usual, you have all the Online Store items. As a Demonstrator, you'll receive a special release date to demonstrators (meaning you'll be able to purchase the new products a MONTH before they are released to customers.
Of course, if by June 2024, you haven't reached the minimum $300 minimum purchase level, you simply return to being my customer!
So much offered when you join Stampin' Up! and it's so easy to join! Just contact me or Stampin' Up! Customer Service (800-782-6787 MT).
AND Sale-a-Bration products have added new items for February! Check out the link to the right at the top! Unbelievable...new Designer Paper, punches, and so much more!
Now it's beginning of February!!! Better get this posted or it'll be March!!!
Don't forget the Spring Crop at the Park being held on February 17th! If you'd like to come and join us, be sure to email me at: creatingtreasures123@gmail.com ASAP because we're fill-in up. FINAL cut off is Tuesday, February 6th.
And the next Papercrafting class is Friday, February 9th from 10:00 am to Noon. Again, email me if you'd like more information.
Take care and stay warm...summer is coming!
