SANTA'S WORKSHOP RETREAT!:

Hello again! One of Santa's little elves has been working away getting these fun projects ready to share with you:) Let me help you get ready for the Holiday hoopla by attending Santa's Little Workshop Retreat the first week-end in December! Notice that retreat contains the word TREAT, which I plan to spoil you with all week-end long! There will be 4 class projects that you can make over the 2 days:

1) MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS ALBUM & CARDS: Create a special keepsake to remember the best memories of this Holiday Season. All of the designing has been done for you! Just pop the Memories & More Cards into the pocket pages and add your photos! This class also includes 6 Christmas cards with envelopes.

Your class includes a 6" x 8" Album, Variety Pack of 6" x 8" Photo Pocket Pages and the Merry Little Christmas Memories & More Card Pack.

You'll get step by step instructions with pictures to help you assemble your album. All of the embellishments & trimmings will be included as well.

You may have noticed that the Merry Little Christmas Card Pack coordinates with the Carols of Christmas Bundle and the entire Merry Little Christmas Suite! You can be assured they will all work perfectly together for all your project needs!

The cost for the MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS ALBUM & CARDS CLASS is $50.

2) GIFT CARD & TREAT HOLDER CLASS: Add a personal touch to your gift card-giving this year! Make these 6 adorable holders that will hold a gift card or other small treats. They says 'It's what's on the inside that counts', but these 'outsides' are pretty special too:) Note: I'm waiting on a couple of items to finish the coffee gift card holder.

Your class includes 1 Gift Card Pouch, 1 Gift Card Holder with Envelope, 4 Pillowbox Stockings which hold a gift card and/or candy or small treat. You'll get step by step instructions with pictures where needed, to assemble your projects. All of the embellishments & trimmings will be included. The cost for the GIFT CARD & TREAT HOLDER CLASS is $30.

3) BAGS & BOXES CLASS: Make 6 beautiful bags and boxes to hold all of your special gifts this year. There's a wide variety of shapes and sizes to accommodate everything on your list!

Your class includes a Tiny Treat Box, Candy Holder, Mitten Nugget Holder, Christmas Tree Box(not pictured-waiting on a die), a Bag In A Box and a Large Bag(thanks to Julie Di Matteo for sharing!) You'll get step by step instructions with pictures to help assemble your bags & boxes. All of the embellishments & trimmings are included. The cost for the BAGS & BOXES CLASS is $30.

4) GIFT TAG CLASS: Decorate your packages with an assortment of super cute handmade gift tags! I'm sorry I don't have them all finished yet, but you will get 24 gift tags in all-2 of each design! You'll also get to play with the new Stampin' Blends:) You'll also get step by step instructions with pictures where needed. All of the embellishments & trimmings are included. The cost of the GIFT TAG CLASS is $30.

OR GET ALL OF THE CLASSES FOR A DISCOUNTED PRICE OF $125!!! Cover all of your Holiday needs and save $15! You'll make at least 43 handmade-from-the heart projects. "How will I ever accomplish that in a week-end?" you may be asking. Well with chocolate of course! And coffee & wine & lots of other treats:) I'll have chili and potato soup on the stove, along with a well-stocked hot chocolate bar, coffee & tea stations, wine in red & white, and lots of other yummy treats. We'll sing along to our favorite Christmas songs and be jolly little elves, working around the clock:) Santa's Workshop opens on Saturday, December 2nd at 10am and will stay open til 9pm. Sunday will be from 12-5. You can stay for the whole time or come & go as needed. If you're pressed for time, get all the stamping done there and assemble at home.

All of the tables just got delivered yesterday, so we'll be at my little Stampin' Pad-1513 Market, right across the street! I know this isn't a lot of notice but I need to have your RSVP AND PAYMENT by Sunday, November 19th to be able to get everything ordered and prepped.

As always there will be Door Prize drawings! I know $125 is a big investment this time of year, but I'll be helping you check a lot of things off of your Holiday To-Do list and you'll get some fun little surprises over the week-end as well...little treats JUST FOR YOU, so don't miss out! You'll also be leaving with 43 projects and instructions to make more in the future!

Please RSVP by SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 19TH and tell me which classes your'e interested in or tell me YOU WANT IT ALL! I hope to hear from you soon!
