Re: i know it is late....

  • YES. We need another SATC party!!!!

  • That would be so much fun!
  • I agree!  We should so have another party!

    I am, however, excited for DH to see it though.  I've been holding it in for 3 months!

    Siggy coming soon....

  • lauren, your cards look amazing!! i actually started going to stampin' up parties myself - it's so much fun!

     

    i had no idea the satc movie was out yet! i completed my collection of the shows a few months ago when they went on sale at target (17.99 each - i couldn't believe it). must.buy.the.movie!!!

  • thank you lady!!!! this will be the first set i have given to someone....i hope she likes them. i wish you were closer because you would be more than welcome at a stampin party!!!! i think it might be time for another hardcore party!

    the movie actually doesn't come out till tuesday....but i ordered it on amazon with a gift card my sister gave me....and i guess they shipped it early so i might have it by the time it is released! i am excited to watch it again!  

  • o i am sure she will love them. when do you usually have your parties (weekdays/weekends)? my sis lives in b'ham now (she's going to grad school at uab), so i always have an excuse to go down there ;)

    i just saw that target will have the movie on tues - you better believe i will be there!! :)

  • we have usually had them on the weekend!!! that would be awesome!

    the demonstrator that got me into stampin up (a friend from work actually) ...she doesn't live around here anymore...so the last few get togethers that have been held haven't been "stampin' up" parties....they have been more like "bring you crap and play around!" LOL

    i have a few stampin up sets, but most of my stamps are coming from places like michaels and such.... although, i love the stampin up products....they are just expensive! i love their cardstock though....

    we should organize another one....complete with wassail! LOL

  • I love them!!! And I love wassail!! When can I come over? LOL
  • yes....crafts....wassail....and SATC.....what time should I be there...lol!

    cool! well just let me know when you guys are planning the next one, and i will try to make it.

    o ok, yea i am actually going to another "stampin' up" party next tues. i love making the cards, but the sets are rather pricey, so i never walk away with anything. i was actually in michael's the other day thinking that i would love to get some stamps, etc to make my own cards, but seeing as i'm not creative, i need a little direction, and wouldn't really know what to buy. it's so overwhleming starting from nothing - lol. but your party would be a great excuse for me to get some stuff to start my collection!

     o, and i've never heard of wassail! sounds like i have to try it - lol.

  • it is totally overwhelming....

    there is a GREAT website and forum called www.splitcoaststampers.com and they have message boards and galleries and stuff...and i have found GREAT inspiration over there.... i enjoy it....

    if i had to give advice (and maybe some of the other gals that stamp can share their experience?) i would say start with some el cheapo cardstock at michaels or hobby lobby....get basic colors....pick up a few fun sheets of scrapbook paper (usually super cheap!) and just play around! buy a few "anytime" stamps at michaels and start by making some thank you cards or something....you can always use those!

    that is if you really do want to buy a few things and open up your world to that.... LOL, it will take over your life eventually! HA!

  • oh....and right now...the michaels in my area has $1 stamping stuff! like stamps included! you could definitely go raid yours and see if they have a similar bin! i have bought several stamps (wood mount) and getting them for a buck is a STEAL!
  • yes! I shouldn't spend the money right now for it, but I think I'm gonna have to.
  • I haven't been into stamping in awhile.  Don't have alot of time or any money to buy the stuff..  Did you guys get the holiday mini-catalog in the mail today?  If I get back in the groove I may be inspired to make some Christmas cards to send out this year.
    Siggy coming soon....
