Birthday Bash Stampin' Buffet!!

If you are like me, you always need birthday cards - always - lots of them. :) So this month's buffet is all about celebrating those we love most on their birthday.  And it wouldn't be a Birthday Bash without a little cake right?  Yum.  I can taste it already!

WHEN: Saturday, March 12 from 11-4.  Come and go as you need to.

WHERE: My House in Farmington - Let me know if you need directions.

WHAT: See the projects below.  Make only what you like and more than one of what you love.

RSVP: By Wednesday, March 9 with your project order to paulastamps@gmail.com or voice/text to 801-557-3439 so I can have your projects cut and ready to go for you that day.

SPECIAL OFFERS FOR THIS CLASS:

PROJECTS:


My friend Vicky Kahlandt made me one of these cute calendars as a gift last month.  I loved the idea so much that I had to share it with you!  Each page features a different month with lines to record your friends' and family members' birthdays and other special days.  Cost $6.


Doing things a little different this month -- just a one page scrapbook layout.  It's still 12x12 though.  Cost: $3.00.


Give a gift with style.  Gift bag comes with a tag.  Cost: $2.50 

Have a little something to give?  This box is the perfect size to fill with candy or jewelry or another small treasure.  Cost: $2 each or 3 for $5.

This gift tag is sure to brighten up any package.  Cost $1 each or 4 for $3.

Happy Birthday, Stampin' Addicts!!!!

Two years ago, my good friend Angie and her husband James (or Head Smarty Pants as we like to call him) had an idea and asked thirty of their closest friends to come a long for the ride.  Their idea has blossomed into the best place for Stampin' Up! fans on the internet: Stampin' Addicts.  I'm proud to have been there in the beginning and I'm thankful for James and Angie's vision of "All Stampin' Up! All the time!"

If you are looking for ideas, challenges, virtual stamping nights and other people who are passionate about Stampin' Up! Be sure to stop by for a visit.

And here's a little something I made to celebrate!  Happy Birthday Stampin' Addicts!

Want to make this card too?  This is just one of the cards that will be featured at my Birthday Bash Stampin' Buffet on March 12.  Here's a look at a few more:




Watch for more details posted by the end of the week!
