Occasions Stamp-A-Stacks!

For complete details on "Creative Tuesdays", of which the Occasions Stamp-A-Stacks are a portion, click HERE.

The Christmas Card Stamp-A-Stack at Creative Tuesdays has been a wonderful success these past 4 months.  And many of you who live too far away or whose schedules didn't allow attending took advantage of the "on the go" option.  Thank you to everyone who participated!

Because it's been such a popular class and many have expressed how much they love making BULK cards, we're continuing this program, and it's time for another round!

Come to any combination of the sessions – all sessions are open to anyone and everyone. But I'm sure you'll want to come to all 4 sessions (or participate in all 4 "on the go!" and here's why…

Join the Occasions Stamp-A-Stack Club by committing to attend all four sessions (if you sign up to attend in person and miss one you'll recieve your packets and instructions!) and you'll be entered into FREE product giveaways during all of the sessions!  During the last club, we gave away over $40 in product each month – and if we have even more people participate this time, there'll be even more freebies!

AND Club Members have the option to pre-pay for all 4 sessions by December 13th and receive a $10 discount!  It is not required that you do this (you can pay on a month-to-month basis at full price) – it's just a nice little perk!

Club Registration Details
– Sign up for all 4 months and get 48 cards, 48 envelopes and 4 accessories!
– Pre-Pay for all 4 months by December 13th and save $10 – pay just $90!
– Save an additional $40 (up to $10 per session) just for placing an order each month of the club! If you pre-pay and place orders, this makes it a $50 savings – a 50% discount!

If you want to join and pay monthly, just ask me for a Club Form.

It's an incredible value – you get SO MUCH for your money!

Month-by-Month, Standard Registration Details
– The cost is $25 per month and includes 12 cards, 12 envelopes and 1 accessory.
– AND – if you place an order of $25 or more during the Stamp-A-Stack, you'll get $10 BACK from your Registration Fee!

All payments are pre-pay with the following deadlines:

Session on December 27th – Pre-Pay by December 13th
Session on January 31st – Pre-Pay by January 17th
Session on February 28th – Pre-Pay by February 14th
Session on March 27th – Pre-Pay by March 13th

"On the Go!" Registration Details

Introducing Creative Tuesdays!

It's hard to believe it's August already!  I hope you're enjoying your summer. 

The Stampin' Up! Annual Convention was July 12th through 16th, and it was fabulous this year! We were treated with so many goodies that I had an entire suitcase filled with free stamps and other fun products!  It was my first time being recognized for my accomplishments at Convention.  I received awards for my sales, my recruiting efforts and my leadership abilities.  And the best award this year was earning a FREE trip for both my husband and me to Disney World!  I sincerely want to thank all of YOU, my wonderful customers and team members, for your loyalty and support! Thank you for such a great year!

I have some more exciting news!  In July, "The Stamp Shoppe" moved into its new AIR CONDITIONED home! We are so grateful for our new space — it's roomy, clean, has great lighting, its own direct entrance at ground level and is a great, central location! We couldn't have asked for more!

Now for the REALLY exciting news, and the main purpose for this post! Things have been going so well for "The Stamp Shoppe" and we love our new facility so much, that starting THIS MONTH we are adding another monthly event to the calendar!

"Creative Tuesdays" will take place the last Tuesday of every month, and we're offering 2 different classes – a Stamp-A-Stack and an additional class that will rotate to bring you the latest and greatest projects available.

Don't Live Locally? You can still register for ALL of these classes and receive the kits in the mail! All photos and instructions will be e-mailed to you so that you're able to finish your projects. Have Creative Tuesdays come right to you!

What Are Creative Tuesdays? Creative Tuesdays are a once a month, mid-week chance for you to relax, unwind, enjoy fellowship with other Stampers, and STAMP! Creative Tuesdays feature TWO classes every month – you pick which one you want to attend.  Click HERE  to read more about Creative Tuesdays!

Christmas Card Stamp-A-Stacks! Eliminate the stress this year and start your Christmas Cards early! You could even have them all DONE by the end of November! From August through November, a Christmas Card Stamp-A-Stack will take place during Creative Tuesdays, with different cards featured each month. You're able to come to any combination of the sessions, and all sessions are open to anyone and everyone – but I'm SURE you're going to want to attend all four… click HERE to find out why, to learn more about our Christmas Card Stamp-A-Stack sessions and to register!
 

Here's a look at what's coming up at our August Session on August 30th (Prey-Pay by August 15th!)

Delightful Tags Envelope Class: This is a class you WON'T want to miss!!! You'll make a darling accordion fold book out of card stock and envelopes along with an assortment of 12 tags to go along with it! Here's a look at all that you'll make at this class:

This class is coming up at the August 30th session – pre-pay by August 15th! Click HERE for more details and/or to register!

I hope to see YOU at our Creative Tuesdays Grand Opening on August 30th!

And remember, if you can't attend in person or don't live locally, you can still register and get your kit in the mail!

Now you can “Shoppe on the Go”

The "Shoppe on the Go!" program allows those of you who are unable to attend Stamp Shoppe in person to still receive the same great projects, at great prices…. with the option to receive them for FREE – just like my local attendees!

"Shoppe on the Go!" Basic  Information

"Shoppe on the Go!" orders must be submitted by the upcoming Stamp Shoppe's RSVP deadline. For example, to receive the April Stamp Shoppe projects, your "Shoppe on the Go!' order would need to be submitted by Thursday April 7th. If you submitted an order for "Shoppe on the Go!' after April 7th, it would be applied to the May Stamp Shoppe projects.

You'll notice that the "Shoppe on the Go!" prices are a little bit higher than the Stamp Shoppe prices. If you're paying for your Shoppe, the base prices are the same, but the ordering requirements to receive the kits for free are a little higher. One of the ways I'm able to offer "The Stamp Shoppe!" for free, is to place all Shoppe orders together so that they qualify for hostess benefits – I'm then able to use the hostess benefits to purchase supplies for the following Shoppe. Because "Shoppe on the Go!' orders will be placed separately to allow for direct shipping, they are not eligible for hostess benefits so therefore the ordering requirement needs to be higher to cover costs.

Shoppe on the Go! Kits include: all of the pre-cut cardstock material including punching and die cutting, ribbon and accessories. You'll also receive an e-mailed PDF document containing photos and instructions for completing the projects. You provide your own adhesive, stamps and ink to complete the cards.

"Shoppe on the Go!" Pricing:

Card Shoppe on the Go! Kit- $15 or FREE with a $30 order!
Scrapbook Shoppe on the Go! Kit – $20 or FREE with a $45 order!

The "Shoppe-er's" Club Card!

And as if getting FREE "Shoppe on the Go!" kits wasn't enough – I have a NEW type of Club offering available for anyone wanting to get them EVERY month!

You do NOT need to get a "Shoppe-er's" Club Card in order to receive the "Shoppe on the Go!" kits – you are absolutley able to order them on a month-to-month basis.  However, for those of you who DO want to receive them each month, and get even MORE for FREE in return, this is for YOU!

 The "Shoppe-er's" Club Card is a FREE card. It costs you nothing to open one! Simply place your first order for a "Shoppe on the Go!" Kit – either purchase it or place a qualifying order to receive it FREE – and you'll have the option of starting a "Shoppe-er's" Club Card! If you decide to start a "Shoppe-er's" Club Card, you'll receive something that looks like this, with your first box marked off!

Then the following month, just be sure to get me your order for the next kit by the Thursday before the Shoppe takes place locally (you'll have a reminder and list of due dates), and you'll get your next box marked off!

You'll continue to enjoy Shoppe on the Go Kits or FREE Kits if you're placing orders! Then, once you fill the card, you'll get a FREE Shoppe Kit AND a Level 1 Hostess stamp set of your choice!

Each Shoppe-ers Club Card will need to be "designated" towards a particular Shoppe type. In other words, you may start one card for  Card Shoppe and a separate card for Scrapbook Shoppe – both types of Shoppe can't be put on one card.

NEW location!
NEW format!
NEW price!
NEW opportunity!

WHO is the Stamp Shoppe for? – Truly anyone! Whether you're an experienced stamper or have never stamped in your life, the Stamp Shoppe is for you!

WHAT is the Stamp Shoppe? A chance for you to relax, unwind, enjoy fellowship with other Stampers, browse a themed "Display of the Month" and STAMP at YOUR leisure as you move from station to station at YOUR pace! At Card Shoppe you'll make SIX cards and at Scrapbook Shoppe you'll make THREE 12"x12 scrapbook pages. Are you a somewhat speedy stamper? You'll have time to do BOTH if you choose!

WHEN is Stamp Shoppe? The Stamp Shoppe is open the second Friday and Saturday of every month. Our Grand Opening is on September 10th and 11th! The Stamp Shoppe is open from 6:30 – 9:30 pm on Friday evenings and from 10 am – 1 pm on Saturday mornings. If you're coming to just Card Shoppe OR Scrapbooking Shoppe, you can arrive at any time during the first hour of the Shoppe's opening.  If you're coming to BOTH Card Shoppe and Scrapbooking Shoppe, you'll want to arrive when Stamp Shoppe first opens so that you have enough time for both. The Stamp Shoppe will have different projects every month designed around the current holidays and season.  Friday and Saturday projects are always identical – you choose which time slot works best for you
WHERE is Stamp Shoppe?  Trinity Communion Church, 759 Winona Blvd, Rochester NY 14617 (near Titus and St. Paul Blvd.)

HOW MUCH is Stamp Shoppe? That's the BEST part!

• The Card Shoppe is just $15 for all 6 cards or FREE with a $20 order placed during Shoppe hours!
• The Scrapbook Shoppe is just $20 for all 3, 12"x12" Scrapbook Pages or FREE with a $25 order placed during Shoppe hours!

WANT MORE FREE cards at the Stamp Shoppe? You've got it! Bring a friend who has never stamped with me before and you'll get to make an EXTRA set of cards for FREE! That means that you'll get to make TWELVE cards total – 2 of each design – 1 to keep as a sample and 1 to send! If you're only registered for Scrapbook Shoppe and bring a friend then you'll get to make a set of cards for FREE in addition to your scrapbook pages.

DO I NEED TO PRE-PAY? No! For your convenience, I've waived that requirement as well! But I DO need to know that you're coming and whether you're bringing a friend by noon on the Thursday before Stamp Shoppe (so for September 10th and 11^th Stamp Shoppes, the RSVP deadline is Thursday, September 9th at Noon) in order to prepare an accurate number of cut materials. Simply call me at 585-360-4806 or e-mail me at krisshuels@gmail.com to reserve your spot at the table!

__________________________________________________________

At our Heartfelt Stampers Team Meeting I was given this terrific card made by Aly Schilling for my #2 sales ranking in April. Thanks to all my terrific customers!

There is so much interest in this card–textured background heat embossed with white stars, lots of layers on the main image with a great paper folding highlight, as well as the clear button with stamped image behind.

I also received this Sweet Treat for sales over $1000.  It's full of the brand new Bitty Buttons!  Was I ever thrilled to earn this!
