Christmas Stamping Retreat

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year! Christmas always excites me, and I love to spoil my stamping friends. That’s why you don’t want to miss this Christmas Stamping Retreat with me!

We will spend the day stamping and creating 8 gorgeous A2 sized cards together. But this Christmas Stamping Event is about way more than the cards you will be making. I made a list…you check it twice!

Did you see the “+ More”? I ran out of room. But I will have room for you at my Stamping Retreat when you get signed up for Early Bird Pricing by October 9th.

Besides getting a better price (early bird!), you will also guarantee your seat at the Christmas Stamping Retreat. Lean in close while I tell you a secret…my events are becoming more famous, and they may draw in stampers from out of state. More than just Maine, and from several different states. There are only so many tables, and so many seats. Grab yours now.

Christmas Stamping Retreat Special Events

Besides Christmas and cardmaking, I love playing fun games. The games I make up (yup, creativity at my best!) aren’t difficult or physical. Some you can even play while seated at your table, and still win cool stamping prizes.

Giving away crafty things that excite you excites me, too. Expect your prizes to be gift wrapped. In Christmas paper, of course. No peeking!

When I mentioned over-the-top, I meant way over. At my bigger stamping events, like the Christmas Stamping Retreat, I always give a way a Grand Prize. And the Grand Prize is often current Stampin’ Up! product that is valued above the price of admission.

Imagine coming to the Christmas Stamping Retreat and leaving with way more in prizes than the amount you paid to get in?! Merry Christmas, my stamping friend.

These events just keep getting bigger and better! I will be packing my sleigh (or Kia Sorrento…and maybe my daughter’s mini van) really full to get lots of great Stampin’ Up! product to Lynde Lodge in Hermon Maine for this event.

I can’t wait for you to see all that is in store…

Christmas Is About Spoiling, And Secrets

I hate to give too much away. I want you to show up and be beyond surprised! But bring your basic card making kit, whatever you love to use when stamping and creating.

I always have Cash and Carry Adhesive if you run out in the ‘Blizzard of Card Making’.

March (Kits & More) Madness

Join Me For A March (Kits & More) Madness Party

You don’t have to be “mad” for Stampin’ Up! Kits to join me for this fun filled event on Saturday, March 9, at the Lynde Lodge in Hermon, Maine. Our kit-together festivities will run from Noon to 4pm. Bring your basic cardmaking kit (adhesive, scissors, etc.) and plan to have an amazing Craft-ernoon!

Kits And More

There will be numerous fully assembled Stampin’ Up! papercrafting kits on display for you to view. Your first decision is choosing your own kit to craft with for your $30 entry fee. Along with your selected kit, you will receive a Mystery Goodie Bag for additional card making fun. Each “kit and more” comes with a complimentary raffle ticket to the Grand Prize Drawing!

But don’t stop at just one kit….try out other kits, with Mystery Goodie Bags and raffle tickets, for $25 each. There is no limit to the number of kits you may purchase, but styles may be limited based on kit popularity (first come, first served)! If you run out of assembly time, take your kits home to play at your leisure. Or, use a kit as the perfect gift for someone else!

March Madness Games & Prizes

Plan to play some games while you craft away! We will enjoy a couple of easy and fun basketball and bracket themed activities. Of course there will be prizes…what are games without winning, after all?!?

Cash in your token for the Basketball Toss Game, gym sneakers not required. Take your best guess with the Kit Bracket Game, choosing which kit you think will be slam dunked as most popular. And there is nothing but luck involved for the Grand Prize Drawing, may luck be with you on this day!

Socialize, Papercraft, Play

Besides crafting your kits and more, and playing March Madness Basketball Games for prizes, there will be a *NEW* Sentiment Stamping Station. This will give you the ability to ink up the perfect phrase for your projects, no matter what your kit has to say.

I will have a vast selection of sentiment stamps with clear blocks and ink for you to get clever with. There will also be a limited selection of basic shaped dies and punches to play with.
