Stamp, Scrap & Create Retreat
September 18 – 20, 2015
Are you ready to get away from it all? Leave behind the family, the laundry, the cooking, the cleaning and come join us for a fun Stamp, Scrap & Create Retreat. It’s a Holiday PARTY!! Come party with us at Monika’s House September 18 – 20, 2015.
Arrive on Friday afternoon – come set up your craft space, bring an appetizer to share with everyone on Friday evening for our dinner. We will have games and prizes on Friday night. Make & Takes will be scheduled for Friday night and Saturday. All meals included on Saturday. Finish up on Sunday and pack up and head back home in the early afternoon. We have Make & Take projects planned as part of the retreat – and everyone will receive a Goody Bag with supplies and extras. And little surprises throughout the weekend!
Bring whatever creative projects you would like to work on. You will have table space set up for the whole weekend – so bring your scrap-booking, card making, Project Life, laptop for My Digital Studio, Paper Pumpkin kits, jewelry making, knitting – the choice is yours.
I have some space in my house if you want to spend the night here instead of going home or there is a hotel one exit south just a few minutes away. I will have three Queen beds upstairs, some sofa space, or we can put an air matress on the floor. Or stay as late as you want in the evening – go sleep at home and come back in the morning!
I will send out a schedule and list of what you need to bring at the beginning of September. This time we are offering EARLY BIRD PRICING – paid in full by August 20th – $65.
Regular pricing – due by September 2nd – $75.

It’s that time of year where we anxiously await to see the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog. Demonstrators got a sneak peek of it last week and yesterday we were able to place an order that includes our copy. So they are on their way to demonstrator hands all over the world! And mine is on its way here. Along with my copy i’ve ordered boxes of catalogs for all my lovely loyal customers too! Yes those will be here later this month. Make sure you are on my list to receive your very own copy. If you aren’t local I need your current mailing address so I can send it to you. If you are local I will let you know once they arrive at my house. Plus I’m planning an OPEN HOUSE – BOGO Sale in mid June so you can pick one up then too!

So I’m trying to do a blog post from my iPhone. We shall see how well it works.
This cute little box idea was one they showed at our leadership conference. I decided to make one with some Sale-a-Bration supplies.
I used Sahara Sand card stock to make the triangle box. I wrapped it with some of the Best Year Ever Designer Series paper. Then I used the ribbon all three colors and tied them around the box. I added a tag stamped with Happy Spring which are from Crazy About You stamp set. And the little heart from the Best Day Ever stamp set. I also cut the flowers from the designer paper and added them to my tag.
It’s a fun little box made from one sheet of card stock. Cut your piece to be 8″ x 11″. Then score at 2″ and 9″ on the long side and 1″, 3″, 5″, 7″ on the short side. I also make just a little mark at 4″ on each side so that I can score a diagonal line for where the center scores cross each other and make the end fold in. you will cut away the small rectangle that you end up with in each corner. And then cut in on the 2″ and 9″ score lines until you reach the 3″ and 5″ lines – but don’t go all the way across. This will make your ends so you can fold them. I trimmed a wedge off of the outside flaps to make it fold nicely.
We shall see if this post works. Thanks for stopping by today.
