Color Combo Guide

Have you ever been stamping and picked a color and wondered what colors coordinate with that? Well I have the solution. It is a website called Color Combo Guide. All you do is select the color that you want to work with, then hit search and it will come back with all of the different color combinations available. It is a great tool to have when making cards or scrapbooking. Whoever took the time to make this is amazing!!!! Hope you all enjoy it.

Welcome 2010!!!

It’s hard to believe we are ready to start another year! But with a new year comes lots of new classes and new products that I am very excited about!! This year in order to keep the cost of classes down and Club class free, I am asking that everyone bring their own adhesive to each class. I will have a storage container available if you would like to leave your adhesive at my home rather than remembering to bring it to each class.

Due to the number of cancellations the day of classes last year, I am implementing these changes for the new year. Your reservation and PAYMENT will be required when signing up for a class and must be received by the Monday before the class. This will allow me ample time to order supplies and cut the required number of packets for those attending. If you do not pay, you are not guaranteed a spot. Your money will be returned to you if you cancel by NOON the Wednesday befor the class. After Wednesday NOON if you cancel or do not show up, you will not receive your money back but will receive a paper packet with instructions to assemble the cards. No stamping will be done. NOTE – This does not apply to Club Class. Sorry if you are unable to attend Club Class there are no packets available.

Hopefully these changes will eliminate the problems that I encountered last year and enable me to provide you with organized and fun classes!!! As I am planning classes for the upcoming year, if there is something you would like me to offer a class on, please let me know and we will see if we can make that happen.
