Come stamp a stack of cards for yourself while helping a fellow stamper and her family.

 Heather has been a stamping customer of mine and friend for many years now and she needs our help. 

  Just this past February, Heather was diagnosed with Stage 3 Cancer in one breast.  The doctors have taken an extremely aggressive route in treating Heather's cancer as it appears to be a rare form that is seen in about 1% of those diagnosed.  On March 1st, Heather started her first of four rounds of chemotherapy at Dana Farber and is hoping to still work full time through all of this! 

Heather is a Mechanical Engineer at BAE Systems and has been for 15 years.  She and her husband Tate, have been married for 8 years and have two children, Jack (6) and Edythe (3).  (Yes!  We were both pregnant at the same time for our children and I still hold a grudge against Heather that we were due just two days apart with our 3 year olds and Edythe arrived two weeks early and nearly a month before my boy!  LOL)  Heather is a very healthy, busy mom of two, and was of course caught off guard with her breast cancer diagnosis.

Clearly the travel time, gas money, and all of the other unexpected expenses that occur when dealing with a serious illness add up quickly.  So, that is why I am holding HELP FOR HEATHER- a Stamp-a-Stack event with all profits being given to Heather and her family.

My goal is to get a minimum of 40 stampers at this event and raise a minimum of $800 for them. PLEASE help me spread the word about this event and bring along your family and friends, even if they're not stampers they'll enjoy stamping these cards knowing they are helping someone at the same time!

 If you are unable to attend the event but would still like to make a donation please contact me to do so.  All profits will be given to Heather on the day of the event.

 Once you've registered for the event you will receive a confirmation letter from me with more details.

Thank you in advance for your generosity,

Katherine

One of the best things about being a Stampin' Up! demo has got to be the events that SU! holds!  You've probably heard me mention these time and time again but I have to say this Regional was ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!  We had so much fun, even leaving at 5:45 am, didn't dampen the day!  (I am SO not a morning person!!  LOL)

Here are those from our group who attended on Friday.

From left to right.  Front Row:  Darlene, Tracy, Mandi (a guest!)
Back row: Desiree, Amanda (a guest who joined the team that day!), Courtney, Adrienne, and Cyndy

Obviously I was there too but I took the picture!  LOL

The event was held at the Hartford Convention Center this year and there were maybe 300 demos there?  I don't know.  I'm totally guessing but the room was large and full!

We listened to Stampin' Up! home office employees talk about a little bit of business and a WHOLE LOT of stamping!

There were great WOW! workshop presenters (all demonstrators) that showed some great techniques.

There was tons of swapping to be done and some display boards with samples.

And of course we stamped our little hearts out!  The projects SU! provided were G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S.  They totally outdid themselves!  I will certainly be doing the projects we stamped in future classes and clubs!  They are just too pretty not to share.

And we also had the privilege to listen to Glenda Travelstead (a demo from the midwest) present how she runs her SU! workshops and she got to show us projects with products in the upcoming Summer Mini Catalog!  Here is a Sneak Peek for you!

Yup, that's a new flower punch – but it is SO much more than just a single flower punch.  Watch your mailbox for your summer mini to check it out!

 I can't wait for Convention this year!  With the way SU! treated us at Leadership in January and Regionals this past weekend I have no doubts this Convention will be the BEST one yet!  If you want to join me for 4 days of ridiculous fun, Stampin' Up! style this summer let me know!!  We'd love to have you!!

Come on stampers and scrappers and join me for a FUN FILLED Day or Projects and Products!!!  This is truly an amazing deal!  (I did the math for you below. )  I have provided a PAYPAL link below for even easier registration!

Interested in attending?

My Scrapbook Club meets this Monday night.  We talked last time about doing a winter page so I decided to use the pages I did for my young girls as inspiration.  Of course I am able to spice it up a bit for my adult stampers not only because they're adults, but because they obviously have a love for stamping (or they wouldn't be in my club, right?!) and there are 8 of them (versus 16 young girls!).

So… here are the upgrades. After the club meets I'll show you the completed pages.

Time is running out for you to sign up for this fun class! 

On Thursday, February 4th come create 12 heart pops, complete with Heart Treat cups and m&m’s for just $12!  We’ll use the Sweetheart stamp set as well and if you order this stamp set between now and the class (or during the class) you will get free s/h on the stamp set!  (Sorry, offer only for Valentine’s Treats class attendees.)  This stamp set is available both in the clear and wood mount options.

RSVP by Sunday, January 24th!

IF you’d like to make more than 12 treats you can!  18 for $18 or 24 for $24.

Last night was our Wedding/Anniversary and Valentine’s stamp a stack.  These are the four cards we made featuring the new Sending Love Specialty Designer Series paper, With All My Heart stamp set, I {Heart} Hearts stamp set, and Well Scripted stamp set along with the new new Real Red satin ribbon.  All the aforementioned items can be found in the new Occasions mini catalog!  (See the right of my blog to download the catalog or e-mail me to receive your complimentary catalog.)

Want to make these or other Stamp a Stack projects you see on my blog?  It’s not too late!  Simply gather 4 of your friends and we can repeate a stamp a stack at your home or mine.  E-mail me for more details!

The next stamp a stack is February 2nd during which we’ll be creating 6 St Patrick’s Day cards and 6 Sympathy cards.  Also be on the lookout for a Sale-A-Bration stamp camp coming up soon!
