Hey guys!
This is a bitter-sweet post today. Just like many others around the country, the time has come for me to find a job, and lo and behold, I found one. In Washington, DC. So I'll be heading back from whence I came in mid-February.
It's bitter-sweet because I have thoroughly enjoyed my short time in Knoxville and staying home with my kids. But I'm also looking forward to seeing old friends and getting back to the work-a-day world and finishing a cup of coffee while it's still warm! :)
At this point, I plan on remaining a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. For the next few months, all the classes that I'll be offering will all be done in a Class to Go style. I'll write more about my Classes to Go next week.
As my last hurrah in K-town, I'm holding another
Mystery Hostess Contest for anyone living in the Knoxville area! In order to take advantage of
Sale-a-Bration which starts on 1 Feb, this contest will run until Monday, 2 February.
Sale-a-Bration works like this: For every $50 you spend, you get to choose a free item from the brochure (linked to above). So if you buy $100 worth of stuff, you'll get to choose 2 items, etc., etc. Mystery Hostess will work the same way! For every $50 you spend, you'll get another chance to win! So anyone who submits an order for a minimum of $50 will not only receive a free Sale-a-Bration item, but your name will be put in a hat to receive all the hostess benefits for that order! It's like having a workshop without getting your house all messy! :)
The perks of being the Mystery Hostess is that you not only get all the regular hostess benes, but if the order totals $300 or more, you'll receive a free Sale-A-Bration product! Yay for more free stuff!!
After the Mystery Hostess name is drawn, another name will be chosen to win today's project:
It's a box of eight 3" x 3" note cards! Great for just about any occasion! There are four different cards, two of each design. Here's a picture of the group of cards, with their matching little envelopes! Aren't they adorable?!
Here's a gratuitous close up of one of the cards, just because I was getting all artsy-fartsy with my camera:
Wanna participate but don't have a copy of the fabulous new catalog? I'll have a free make-n-take for anyone who wants to stop over and check it out! There's no formal time, just come on over when you can! Just give me a call, my number's over in the left-hand column. I'll be accepting orders starting today until Monday, 2 February.
For those of you who are interested in the recipe for today's project, here it is:
Stamps: Tart and Tangy, Fun and Fast Notes
Ink: Real Red and Old Olive markers; Barely Banana and Basic Black Classic ink pads
Paper: Summer Picnic DSP (retired), Real Red, Old Olive, Bashful Blue and Whisper White
Accessories: Old Olive 1/4" grosgrain ribbon, paper piercer and piercing mat, Chocolate Chip Double Stitched grosgrain ribbon, Big Shot, and Scallop Envelope die
Hope to see you soon!

I'm getting a lot of use out of my swirly Cuttlebug folder, aren't I? Man, I can't wait to get my hands on the textured embossing plates Stampin' Up!'s selling right now! But alas, I'm trying to be good and wait until after the move to buy anything... Anyway, I couldn't decide which color scheme I liked best, so I made them all slightly different. Here's a group shot:
