Sale-a-Bration is almost over, but that doesn’t mean the fun has to stop. Right? Today, I’m going to take a break from all the crafting to fill you in on some really great things coming up…and give you a teaser of tomorrow’s project.
Spring One-for-One Card Swap. Everyone’s talking about it, so I know you want in. ย I’m hosting a Spring One-for-One card swap. You send a card, and you’ll receive a card.ย The theme is “anything Spring-like and flowery” – Easter, Mother’s Day, birthdays, thank you’s. It’s up to you! I’ll give more information later this week, but start designing a beauty so you can participate in this swap!ย Oh!ย And ANYONE can join in – whether you are from Canada or London or Australia.ย More details to come.
Big Shot Class. I’m hosting a class in my home at 2:00 on Sunday, March 17. It’s called “Introducing…The Big Shot”, and it’s an introductory class for anyone interested. I’ll show wonderful ways to use the Big Shot – embossing folders, framelits and dies. While it’s an introductory class, anyone is welcome. Just let me know if you can come by emailing me at [email protected].
Big Shot Special.ย Have you been eyeing The Big Shot but just haven’t made that leap? Here’s your chance! Now through March 22, I am making a special offer to anyone who buys a Big Shot from me. Not only will you get TWO Sale-a-Bration items of your choice** , but I will send you two Embossing Folders (your choice) as a thank you. **since the Big Shot is $99.95, you’ll have to buy something small to push the total over $100 to receive your second SAB item.
My Stampin’ Clubhouse.ย A second My Stampin’ Clubhouse is opening up, and I’d love for you to be a partย of it.ย Each of the six members is required to place a $25 order each month for six months – and will receive Hostess Rewards in one of those months.ย In addition, you’ll have access to my private Blog with additional card recipes, project ideas and perks each month from me.ย Please email me at [email protected] if you’d like to get in on all the fun!
Tomorrow’s project. Tomorrow I will be participating in The PALS Spring Blog Hop. With this hop, we’reย hosting an Egg Hunt – there will be blog candy at several of the stops along the hop, so you’ll have multiple opportunities to see great projectsย AND win free stuff. My blog entry will post at 5:30 tomorrow morning – worry not if you are one of my early morning readers (that’s you, Loz and Vicky and Patti and Maria and Sonny) and don’t see it at its normal 5:00.ย It will be coming. Here’s a preview of tomorrow’s post:
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
Brian
Thinking cap on already! Thanks for including us foreigners in your card swap, Brian!
Excited that we will be able to participate in this swap! Thanks for including those of us in the UK.
Yipee! ๐ Brian if you ever make it over to the UK for a visit you know we’re all going to fight over looking after you!… ๐
Oh yeah!!!!! Another swap, how wonderful, I’m looking forward to sending and receiving my cards. I wish I could attend your class Brian, most of all, just to meet you in person. Can’t wait to see the whole card tomorrow, you know I’ll be here.
Lots going on here, Brian! I, too, wish I could drop by on Sunday for your Big Shot class and visit your fungeon!
Eager to see the rest of your card tomorrow in the blog hop.
Yeah for the expansion of the card swap across the oceans! My dear husband leaves today for Australia on business – I’ll miss him SO MUCH! (But it does mean MORE TIME to stamp!) ๐
Oh boy, oh boy!! Another card swap…I will get busy and come up with something “Springified” I like your little chicky in the bottle cap ,can`t wait to see what`s attached to him or her ! BTW….Maria and I are doing shout out to any of you that would like to swap with us …It`s a lot of fun and we are gradually building a little swap group . We would love to have any of you from the UK to join in too. ! … No problem if you can`t do it every month …. just let us know….
Oh yeah!! I would love to have a little card swap group. Having someone from the other side of the pond would be fantabulous!!!!! Thanks for the shout out, Sonny, my pal and swap buddy.
Wowzer alot of news this morning. One seat please for Sunday’s Big Shot class. You do have a long distance video feed set up don’t you? I wish! Bet your bottom dollar I’d be there if I could. Knew it wouldn’t be long before another swap announcement. So much fun. Since I have bottle caps coming in my order, your card if perfect timing.
Good Morning Brian:
Lots of news today eh? I can’t wait to get my first Pumpkin Patch (is that the right name?) kit this month. So much going on. Wish I lived close enough to join you on Sunday, that would be a great way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. By the way, I keep getting a pop up from Word Press that says you have 871 followers. Holy Moley, and here I thought this was an intimate group! LOL Well, perhaps it is in e-land!
Oh, I forgot – I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to insert your photo into the little space next to the reply box. If so, could you share instructions? I’m not crazy about being a white ghost on a gray shadow. Thanks in advance.
You need to log in with an account that has an avatar associated with it. facebook, twitter, wordpress…
Grace – how do you comment? If, for example, you comment with a Google account the picture associated with that account will pop up.
I am also excited that Aussies can participate in the swap! I just finished reading all of your past posts and noticed in one of the swap posts that you mentioned that SU! compliance had said you couldn’t include Canada. Here I was thinking that was disappointing to not be able to join in on a swap, then I see this! YAY!
I was concerned that they wouldn’t let me include other countries. When I asked, though, they were OK with card swaps. Yay!
Great announcements Brian! I join in with others about your class, but a bit of a trek even from CA! Look forward to seeing your full card tomorrow!
Brian,
Looking forward to the post and NEW blog hop! They are so much fun and I sometimes get to see other demo blog’s which is cool. It is grey and drizzely here in Wheaton, Illinois. How about you? Why don’t you give us your “majic” smile and bring out the sunshine! We need it!
That game box is one clever idea!
