How to Organize Your Craft Supplies

BUILD YOUR OWN BARGAIN

At our next Create and Crop, Saturday October 29 (9:30 am to 4:00 pm), you can BUILD YOUR OWN BARGAIN!  If you aren't signed up for the Create & Crop, I still have a few spots for the day...but you can also come just to build your bargain (let me know you are stopping by!).

Here's a chance to fill your own pizza box with a large selection of goodies!  The bargain is $25 and you can end up with a value of several HUNDRED dollars!

How do you Build Your Bargain?  You will pick items from 10+ bins that include paper, cardstock, stamps, inks, ribbons, cards, Picture My Life cards, jewels, mini books, and tons of embellishments.  You can check out all the options before you buy!

Below is a sample of a filled box:

October 29 Create & Crop Project

16 HOLIDAY CARDS

$20.00
Includes the 16 cards with sentiment options, envelopes, and one free ink pad!

Coming up on Saturday, October 29, I will be offering the project shown above.  With only EIGHT slots available, you will want to sign up early to reserve your spot!

Make 16 cards with design options (the two sided patterned paper can be flipped) and sentiment choices (several sentiment stamps for each card design)  - you can create the right holiday cards to fit your needs!  You will have everything you need to create your 16 cards.  Also included are 16 envelopes, and everyone will receive one free ink pad.  (Four card designs, create four of each design.  The photograph reflects just a few of the options you have.)

The ink pads are Olive and Ruby.  As you register for this project you may select your color, supplies are limited so your selection will be on a first come basis.

If you want to secure your kit, please email me at JoeSusan@aol.com.  Let me know you want this project and which color ink pad you would like - Olive or Ruby.

Another Project for the Scraptique Weekend Crop THIS WEEKEND

Join me on Saturday (time to be determined) to create this double page layout.  Using mostly new product, you are going to love how quick and easy this layout is to create!  Flip flaps are included for the layout on the right.  Only 4 kits, and only $10.  Includes extra cardstock to use as photo mats so you can change the size of your photos.

The previous post showcases the card project.  VISIT THE CLOSE TO MY HEART TABLES to view artwork in person and to sign up for either of these projects.  (Or email me at JoeSusan@aol.com)
