Moved from WordPress back to Blogger....so a little catching up

Normally, I don't have an issue importing from WordPress to Blogger.  However, today, I was at my wits end.  So why am I moving back to blogger?  Well, I've asked Michelle Laylock to re-vamp my pityful blog and to do that, I had to go back to Blogger.  It's good thing because I've been wanting to come back to blogger, it's just a hassle!!  WordPress was great and I liked it, but they have a rule about not being able to advertise for sale or something like that.  Anyway, worried that WordPress would delete my blog, I headed back over here.  Plus.....Michelle...oh Michelle Laylock is going to re-vamp my blog sometime in January.  Yes, January.  She has an extensive waiting list.  I wished I had gotten on her waiting list a while back but she didn't accept WordPress customers.  So.....here I am!!!!  I'm anxiously awaiting my new and improved blog!!

So what do you think about this tote???  Is it not beautimous?  Only new Stampin’ Up! recruits can get this gorgeous tote!!!   So jealous!!!!  So how do you get this tote?  Read on.
By signing up as a demonstrator, you can get this tote free with your demonstrator kit now thru October 18.  I can tell you first hand, signing as a demonstrator ranks way up there in my life!!  It has given me the ability to meet new friends, be creative and earn extra income all at the same time.  I love it!!!  If you would like to meet for coffee or lunch to hear more about what Stampin’ Up! can do for you, just give me a call at 423-785-6331 or email me at ellen@volstate.net.  I would love to help you earn a family trip to Disney World or an cruise to Alaska!!!!

BINGO Night

Posted on August 18, 2010 by stamperriffic

     Now you’re probably thinking, what in the world does BINGO have to do with stamping or scrapbooking.  Well, hang on because here’s my explanation.
     I am going to be getting rid of most all of my retired products.  Now some of these retired stamp sets have been used very lovingly  In fact, they have ink stains on them.  Some of the ribbon aren’t full spools.  Some of the brads or eyelets are full packages.  There may be sheets of scrapbook (DSP) or almost full packages.
I’ll lay these items on a table.  For 1 hour, we’ll play BINGO.  When you…

yell out BINGO! you’ll get to walk up to the table and pick anything from that table to take home with you.

when you bring a friend that I haven’t met, you’ll be able to walk up to that table, pick out your free item and take it home

when you purchase over $50 of Stampin’ Up! goodies (the same night as BINGO), you’ll get to pick out something on the table.  Plus you’ll get 10% off your order.

If you book a workshop, you’ll get to pick out 2 items off the table and receive 10% off your next order

If you sign as a demonstrator, you’ll get to pick out 3 items off the table and get to go to convention with me!!!  Yay!!!

     We’ll play as many BINGO games with that 1 hour time frame as possible.  So when, where, and what are the other facts?  Here ya’ go!
Cost:  $5 – this is to cover the cost of the pizza and drinks.  We’ll eat before the BINGO game starts at 6:45.  You may eat and drink during the BINGO game, but the game starts at 6:45!!
When:  Thursday, September 9
Time:  Be there at 6:30 to fill your plate with pizza, get a drink and find a seat.  The BINGO game starts promptly at 6:45 and will end promptly at 7:45.
Where:  My house
How many games will we play?  As many as we can fit into 1 hour.  After all, it is a school night and we all need our rest.
This should be tons of fun!  So come on.  You’ll need to let me know if you’re coming just so I can be sure to have enough pizza and BINGO cards!!!

So, how did the Christmas Stamp-A-Stack go?

Posted on August 15, 2010 by stamperriffic

The Christmas Stamp-A-Stack was great! The best thing about it was I got to meet 2 new ladies. Their names are Leisa and Kelly. Both are very nice girls. I hope you get a chance to meet them.

There were 5 ladies that attended and we made 150 Christmas cards in about 4 hours. Not bad huh?? What’s the second best thing? Everyone that attended now has her Christmas cards made. Yay!!!! It’s August and our cards are made. What an accomplishment!!
Check out the pictures below.

If you’re interested in attending one of my events, just shoot me an email at ellen@volstate.net.  I’ll send you a schedule so that you can see what the next event will be!
