April Happenings

Okay - April... Warmer weather. Fresh breezes. Sunny days. Rebirth. Changes.
All of that goes for Stampin' Up!, too. I have a few things to tell you about.

First - The Weekly Deals are going to cease on April 18. Stampin' Up! will occasionally have "specials" instead.

Next - Stampin' Up! On Stage Live (formerly known as Convention) is coming to Salt Lake City on April 14-16. It will be exciting to see what the company has in store for us during the 2016-2017 year - new products; new stamps; new techniques - ahhhhh!

Finally - On April 18 the discontinuing stamp sets list will be available. You'll then have until May 31 to get any of the products before they disappear. So sad...

Classes - Here are the class times for April along with the projects we will be doing:

     Thursday, April 21  (9:00 - noon and 1:30 - 4:30 pm)
     Friday, April 22  (9:00 - noon and 1:30 - 4:30 pm)
     Saturday, April 23  (9:00 - noon and 1:30 - 4:30 pm)
     Sunday, April 24  (1:00 - 4:00 pm)

I currently have space available in all classes except for Thursday morning and Sunday afternoon.  Please call, text or email if you would like to participate.

And, now, ta-da; the projects. I wanted to utilize products found in the Occasions Catalog since we only have until May 31 to order from it. Here you go:


This card is using the Rose Wonder stamp set and
 Rose Garden Thinlits. It is a simple design, but a 
little labor intensive.  Well worth the work!!




I pretty much cased this one from the Occasions Catalog utilizing 
the Party Pop-up Thinlits. You can check it out on page 7. 
And below is the inside of the card.  It seems like we are always 
looking for "guy" cards - this one fits the bill!






This card may look familiar - and it should!  We did
the exact style card last month, BUT some of the classes
didn't get to make it.  Therefore, those who did make it
in March, will make this one in April. The inside of the card
is shown below.






This is another card that is good for the males in your life.
I call this an "engineered" card in that it has multiple
layers and flaps.  It is hard to see in these photos, but there is 
the Wink of Stella Glitter on the flowers (You can find it on page 24 
of the Occasions Catalog).  And, again, below is showing the fold 
and part of the interior.



That's all I have for this month. Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.  Have a great month and hope to see you in class!!!
