Technique Club


Are you interested in joining a monthly Technique Club? 

Each month you will learn two new techniques (make a greeting card and an instruction card for each of the techniques)

In lieu of a class fee, you agree to place a $25 minimum order of merchandise from the current Stampin' Up Catalogs each month (for 6 months), if you would rather not commit to six months and just attend, the cost of the class is $10.

Another benefit for joining our monthly Technique Club is that we will rotate who is the "Hostess".  Receive hostess benefits for your month.  Hostess benefits will be for a the minimum of $150 party (unless you collect other orders/payment to increase your benefits).  In the month that you are the Hostess, you may increase your workshop by gathering outside orders or by hosting a stamp party for friends at your home in addition to our club events.

All supplies will be provided, in addition your first month you will receive a 6 x 8 Project Life Album to hold your technique cards.

Club/Class is the 2nd Tuesday each month (September 9th, October 14th, November 11th, December 9th, January 13th and February 10th), times for the classes will be open house style from 3:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. allow at least 1 1/2 hours to complete your projects.

Space is limited to 10 people

Happy Monday

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  Our Stamp A Stack was so much fun, 47 people WOW thank you all for coming.  I took a few pictures, but I'm not sure if I can post them without their approval, so needless to say I won't, I'm a rule follower!

This week I have stamp club all week.  Stamp Club is held monthly, all you need to do is to commit to coming four months in a row and purchase a minimum of $20 in product.  What you receive in return is one month during that four months you will co-host the party.  Of course you also are coming to my house each month, making three cards and of course you receive a little "goodie" from me.  You can start up a club anytime and of course you can continue.  I have some club members who have been with me since the beginning....and I think that's about 15 years now!  WOW Carol has it been that long????

As a little "sneak peak" here are the cards we are doing this month.




As you can see we work with a variety of products, this month we are focusing on the new blendabilities, envelope punch board and photopolymer sets.

I hope you enjoyed the "Friday Flair" post...

FRIDAY FLAIR


Welcome to "Friday Flair"

I would like to introduce to you, Brenda Sprenger.  Brenda is a Stampin' Up Demonstrator and a very dear friend of mine.  Brenda considers herself an Artisian Design Team wanna be...but she doesn't have a blog?  I think I could help her out with that.

As a matter of fact, Brenda S. is the one who convinced me that I could actually do a blog...and then of course my sister, Brenda, introduced me to her friend and co-worker Holly who actually helped me to set it up...wow it really does take a village. 

Now about the card...

The card that Brenda is sharing with you today uses the Zentangle technique.  The definition of Zentangle is "an abstrack drawing created using repetitive patterns according to the trademarked Zentangle Method."
 

 

 
Look at a close up picture....think of how much fun doodling could be!!!!

 
 

Products used to create this beautiful card:

Cardstock:  Basic Black and Whisper White

Stamp Set:  Blended Blooms

Ink:  StazOn Ink

Accessories:  Various Embossing Folders, Project Life Journaling Pens
