Come any day listed about during the hours listed for that day to see what retired merchandise I have discounted for sale. This is great if you weren’t able to attend the New Catalog Release party on July 3rd or if you decided you want another set or two that recently retired. I also have paper, markers, pads and other accessories that will be available that day. As an added bonus, I will have one make n take for all attendees to make.

Big Shot Club, Sunday, July 18, 2010 2:00 PM

*Do you love the big shot but can’t justify the expense all at once? Well, I have the perfect club for you. Read on for all the details.
*As a part of this club you are in essence purchasing a big shot and some accessories for it using a layaway plan.
*This club will run for 4 months and be $46 a month.
*At the end of the club you will have your own big shot machine, one die ($21.95), the Stampin’ Up! Texture plates ($11.95), one embosslit ($11.95) and one sizzlit 4 pack ($19.95).
*This is plenty of supplies to have a lot of fun playing with your new big shot at the end of the club.
*Each month we will meet and I will share 3 projects with you (that you will make as well) using the big shot. By the end of the club you will know how to work all the great tools that are available for the Big Shot. We won’t be using just paper either. I will show you several different materials that work wonderfully with the Big Shot.
*If you are unable to attend the make n take session, you can still join this club. I will make the projects for you and get them to you. So this is a club for everyone.
*Plus as a club member you will receive $15 credit and a level 1 hostess gift. Isn’t this a sweet deal?

*If you already own the Big Shot you are welcome to attend the class for $10 per month.

Red, White & Blue

This week at Sisters in Stamping we were to create something red, white, and blue.  How appropriate, right?  Well at my New Catalog Release Party tomorrow, we are also doing patriotic theme and decided to make a tiered cake.  Everyone in attendance will get to take a piece of cake. It's low-fat, low-calorie, and high fiber. Ya know, high fiber because it's made with paper.

The build a wheel star wheel was used as "filling" for this cake. Pacific Point ink was used. The stars are punched out of pacific point and cherry cobbler cardstock.  The "cake" is displayed on a cake plate so it is easy to move if you need to. I finished it off with some crinkled paper and of course some festive "sparklers" at the top.

You can easily change the color of the cardstock and how you embellish this cake to create a birthday, wedding, anniversary or whatever special occasion you have coming up.  If you'd like you don't even have to make it a tiered cake. You can use each layer by itself to create a single layer cake.

Don't forget to check out the Sisters in Stamping blog to see the creations of the other sisters.  Next week we will be using our favorite new accessory from the new catalog.
