Here’s a sweet deal for hostesses September through November:

Host a workshop totaling $250 or more and choose any one item* from the 2009 Holiday Mini Catalog for only $10!
*Offer excludes hostess sets and My Digital Studio.

On October 1, when My Digital Studio is released to customers, this offer will become even sweeter:

Host a workshop of at least $400 and get My Digital Studio for 50 percent off the retail price (retail price: $79.95; promotional price: $39.97)!

Things to Remember:

Online orders are not eligible for this promotion.
Hostesses who hold a workshop of $250 can choose any one item from the Holiday Mini catalog for just $10.

Stamp Camp Sneak Peek, sort of…

Sep17

This is one of the cards I was going to demonstrate this Saturday but have been on the fence about it… there’s no sentiment on the front! So I will be reworking this card into something similar that will be a surprise on Saturday (or next week on the blog if you aren’t able to attend)… it will be similar, but different 🙂
