FEBRUARY CLUB NIGHT:

I want to share a couple of projects we made Monday night at our first Club Night. Club Night is open to anyone who is in a Stamper's 6 Club. There is no additional cost or fee to be in a Club, but there are lots of benefits! Here's how a Club works in case you're interested in joining one. 6 members commit to joining a Club for a 6 month period. Clubs run from January through June, and July through December. Each member places a $25 minimum order. This can be for whatever you want. Maybe the first month you order stamps, next month you order cardstock and envelopes, the next month you order inks, you get the idea...with 6 members ordering $25 we get to $150, which is the minimum amount required to get FREE Hostess Benefits. Each month, one of the members gets to take her turn as Hostess and she gets all the freebies! Plus, each Club Member gets a free Idea Book & Catalog-a $10 value with over 350 ideas in it, and any current Mini Catalogs mailed to them. You'll also be invited to attend my Hostess Appreciation Night-a special night of pampering and prizes. And you'll be able to attend an exclusive members only Club Night. So here's the projects we made the other night:

We made this lovely card using the Everyday Enchantment DSP which you get for FREE with a $50 order during Sale-A-Bration. This paper is only available through the end of March, and it is some of the most beautiful paper we have. I also used the Fresh Vintage stamp set from the SAB catty. Hello is stamped in Pool Party with a Riding Hood Red frame stamped from the Four Frames set. The little flower is made using Pool Party, Calypso Coral and Lucky Limeade Cardstock. I used the 1/2" Circle, 1' Circle, and 5 Petal Flower Punches to punch them out. Next, we broke out the brand new Adorning Accents Edgelits Dies to cut out the beautiful edge along the bottom of the flap. We ran the DSP and a piece of Riding Hood Red Cardstock through the Big Shot to cut the decorative edge. Then we ran it through the Big Shot again using the Adorning Accents Embossing Folders to add a little more elegance to the card. Both the Dies and Embossing Folders can be found in the Occasions Mini. We finished it off with a tiny Basic Pearl.

And check out the beautiful flap on the envelope! Wouldn't these make the most elegant wedding invitations? Gorgeous!

We also made a cute little coordinating bag, just like the one I got at Leadership, except I changed the color scheme to Riding Hood Red, Pool Party, Calypso Coral and Lucky Limeade. And we added one of the Large Pearls from the Occasions Mini.

I made these projects to coordinate with the adorable Tote that is available with a $150 Workshop or Order during Sale-A-Bration. I draw names for which month the Club Members get to be Hostess, and some of them will be lucky enough to get this cute bag for FREE along with all the other Hostess Benefits. If you and some of your friends want to get together to get a Club going, contact me and 2 of you can get this Tote for FREE also-but they're only available during SAB-after March 31st, they're gone for good!

I hope you'll think about joining a Club and getting in on a bunch of FREE product of your choice and being able to join us on our fun Club Night! We also had some yummy snacks-Chocolate Chip Bars, Weight Watchers style, so you could have twice as many! And Chocolate Crunch Chex Mix-I call it Chocolate Crack!

Here's another Leadership M&T project. We made 2 of this card-one for us and one to donate to Ronald McDonald House Charities. SU! has donated over 1 million dollars to this charity to date! We used the Mixed Bunch and Thank You Kindly stamp sets for this card. We used Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, Lucky Limeade and Whisper White Cardstock. We punched  the flower out with the Blossom Punch and used a die cut flower from the Blossom Builders kit, both found in the Occasions Mini. We cut strips in the white flower to give it a little dimension and added a Brights Button to the center. I hope you like this fun, bright, cheery card. And I hope you have a fun, bright, cheery day! Thanks so much for coming by!
