As for July's Inked Stampers News: I've got a BIG Promotion Announcement! New Mom & Me Class; New Catalogue Launch Party! Please keep reading for all the details!

Hostess With the Mostest Extravaganza

4 Months of Freebies!

I love my Hostesses, with out you, I would not have a successful business.  Now it is time for me to THANK YOU! For the next 4 months, July through to October, I will be running the Hostess with the Mostest Promotion.  This is only available through ME, this is NOT an SU! promotion but an Inked Stamper Promotion!!

For the next 4 months, the first 10 workshops booked/month will be eligible to earn the BIG SHOT or My Digital Studio for FREE!  This is not a typing error, FREE is correct! FREE FREE FREE! Your choice! I will bring them to your Workshop & you will receive your pick for FREE THAT NIGHT!  How will you choose?  Tough choice, but I'm sure you'll manage!  How do you earn one of these awesome goodies for free?  EASY!

1. 
   
   Book a Workshop within the dates: July-October, Scrapbook, Card, 3D or Decor
2. 
   
   Have sales of $600 at your event
3. 
   
   Have 2 of your Friends Book their OWN workshop so they can earn their own Big Shot or MDS for FREE!

Now I've set the requirements at a nice easy level! My average workshop is around the $500 mark and my average booking/show is 1.75, so these are easily achievable and  I intend to have EVERY hostess reach these targets! I want to make you ALL happy!  My advice is to BOOK early: only the first 10 workshops/month are going to be Hostess with the Mostest Workshops; plus the earlier you book, the easier it will be for your friends to earn their own BIG SHOT or MDS for FREE!  That way you will not have to share your Big Shot! If you already own both the Big Shot & MDS, we can work out a substitution.

Option #2 $69

Includes: Frame, Flutter Decor (Medium dark Grey or Choc), applicator, Garden Gate Tile Decor (small Black or Choc), pretty in pink ribbon

This gorgeous frame is actually from SU!, it is in our new Decor Brochure. It looks much better in person, the picture does it no justice, you can't see that is actually 1 1/2" thick. It looks so pretty in person. I am putting this class on that I designed as a NO FEE Class, this is the actual cost for all the supplies only. I have designed them so there will be left over decor elements for you to place on the wall around your piece of art. Later on if you need a change, all you need to do is flip over your center 4x4 insert and place a picture in it rather then the decor tile.

Ribbon of Hope Card Class March 27 10am-Noon $45 at my Stampin' Studio

Come on over to my studio to make 5 gorgeous cards with envelopes, complete with their own storage case. You will even get to keep your Ribbon of Hope Stamp. Keep the cards for yourself to hand out, or they will make a wonderful present as they come in their own little purse box. This class also includes a $20 tax deductible Donation to the Weekend to End Women's Cancers Walk. Please bring your own adhesive I'll post pictures later, I'm waiting for my stamp to come in.

Registration deadline with payment for both classes is FEB 21.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, have a wonderful February
