Welcome Neighbor Card

Hello Stampers,

I am very excited about today's post, because I have a Georgia Original to share with you. I always get excited when I make something myself don't you? We have a new neighbor moving in on our block and I wanted to make a card to welcome her, so that's exactly what I did. What do you think? :o) I just love using Kiwi Kiss and Pacific Point together. I'm gonna be so sad when these in colors are gone, but I can't wait to see what Stampin' Up! will come out with for the next 6 colors.

When I was looking at my stamp sets I didn't have any stamp sets that really welcomed a new neighbor. Stampin' Up! does have a stamp set in the catalog I just do not own it . . . yet. :o) I did get the Welcome from the Warm Words stamp set and the houses are from the Neighborhood Jumbo Wheel. I used the Eyelet Boarder Punch along the bottom of the Kiwi Kiss Card Stock and I used my Aqua Painters and ink pads to color the house. I finished the card by adding some Kiwi Kiss Ribbon around the top.

Very fun and fast to make. I think this card would also make a very cute "We've Moved" card to announce your new address.


**Card Club Update**

I wanted to let you know that there is still room to join the next session of card clubs that start next month! Currently I have spots open in my Tuesday & Wednesday groups. PLEASE NOTE - that the Tuesday club has been changed to meet on the 3rd Tuesday of each month and the Wednesday group has always been scheduled for the 3rd Wednesday of the month, so no change there. Tuesday has 7 spots left and Wednesday only has 4. - - Current Club Members. . . if you get a friend to join card club you will receive a FREE package of 8 1/2 x 11" card stock (5.50 value). There is not limit to the number of package you can earn.

**Make and Take Reminder**

My next make and take class is scheduled for May 2nd. Cost is $25.00, because you will be receiving a whole package of Rub Ons to use on your projects. We are making a Gift Sack Scrapbook and a Top Note Box. These items will be very similar to the ones shown in the photo below. Please register by Thursday, April 23rd, so supplies can be ordered.


**April Workshop Help**

I am still looking for more April workshops. Has it been a while since your had your last party, or are you just ready to party with me? If you schedule a workshop with me for the month of April, not only will I send out your invites (no postage expense for you) you will also get to pick a FREE stamp set from the extra Sale-a-bration stamp sets I have on hand OR an extra $10 hostess bucks with a workshop of $200 or more. :o)

The dates I have open are listed below. However, if you are thinking about a different date in April please contact me and I'll check my calendar. I hope to hear from you soon!!! Don't have time for a actual "party". . . why not hold a catalog show.

Don't forget about the current promotion Get Connected! Hostesses: Hold a workshop of $150 or more and choose any one item from the "Under $10" page in the Spring-Summer 2009 Idea Book & Catalog for free.
