Hello Stampers …
Hope those of you who attended the appreciation party are now caught up on your sleep!
Today I’m going to share some of the fun … and some of the winners! Whew …hope my memory serves me right, because I was so busy calling ticket numbers, I never thought of writing down the names of the winners.
First I’d like to share with you the initiation that each “hostess” received to join me for dinner (stamping afterwards). I cased this from a card I saw on Stampin’ Connection, but changed the color pallet to include the new In-colors: Coastal Cabana and Baked Brown Sugar.
The stamp “ I’m so grateful there’s you in the world” was very appropriate” … I love my hostesses, many have become good friends ♥ Life can’t get better than that!
The stamp comes from the “Chalk Talk” stamp set (pg. 12) and coordinates with the “Chalk Talk Framelits” found on page 187. However, if you purchase them as a bundle (pg. 12) you can save 15%.
Each hostess received a bag (see below) with their Make & Takes tucked inside… Aren’t they cute? They were so easy and quick to make – Great for kids parties and more.
The pretty Silver Glimmer Paper you see behind was a prize awarded to Corinne C. for having the “all green” tag. That was our kick-off to the give-aways!

Another contest I held and one of the hardest was … Guess Linda’s favorite NEW Stamp Set in the “catalog”! I know right! Well, here it is …. TIMELESS TALK
I just love the “nostalgic look” and I think it would make awesome cards for both men and women. So much so, I’m hosting a TIMELESS TALK CLASS on Thursday, July 25th after I return home from convention. Click here for full details.
And can you believe it – I did have one person who guessed correctly … Kris H. (Way to go!)
Kris got to the NEW Candy Dots in the color family of her choice. If you don’t have them yet, you will need to put them on your wish list – they are addicting! They almost look like those “candies” we ate as kids (we don’t want anyone eating these).
Congratulations also go out to Kris H., Monica G., Cindy B., and Judy Z. for guessing my favorite stamps set from the cards we made… they all received the Vintage Faceted Buttons (this picture does not do them justice) they are so pretty and I use them often on cards and scrapbook pages.
Also want to send out congratulations to all the “Board” winners, and Sarah B. for winning the grand prize! Grand prize included a Stampin’ Up! bag, a stamp set, a scrapbooking kit and ribbon slides!
Thank you all for attending the party, and can’t wait to stamp with you again!
Hope the rest of you enjoyed hearing about our party. If you would like to join this exclusive event next year … you may do so by joining one of my many clubs or hosting a stampin’ party! We’d love for you to join us.
Have an awesome day today ~
