A reason to smile the day before convention!

I am madly running around getting ready for a private class tonight and to leave for convention tommorrow. I love firing on all cylinders. I finally feel like I'm being efficient and productive. The lack of structure in the summer has made me sloth like and things that would normally take me 15 minutes are taking hours instead. Irritating.
Anyway, just got a cheque in the mail from dawn. She was paying for an upcoming class and I loved it that she put it in this pretty card. Those lively flowers are from the reason to smile set which is only. $5 with a $60 purchase only in July!
Stay tuned. I'll try and blog as much as I can on my travels to stampin up convention 2012 !

A great price for stamps!

It's almost July 1st!  Did you know for the month of July Stampin Up! is releasing a limted edition stamp set?  The set is called Reason to smile.  It's a wonderful 2 step stamp set that speaks spring and summer.  This set 7 piece stamp set is $25.95 (wood) or only $5 when you place a $60 order.  Yes!  You read that correctly!  A high quality stampin' up stamp set for $5. 

I will be placing a group order July 1st (happy Canada Day!) so if you want to be one of the first to enjoy this set, e-mail me your order ASAP!

Don't forget about my Sizzlin' Summer Spectacular!  Come on out to one of my events and bring a friend!

Looking forward to stamping with you soon!

A Reason to Smile

My friends Joanne and Lynda invited me to come and share at their Stampin' Up! team meeting tonight.  I jumped at the opportunity because I always thought it was silly that we only saw each other at Stampin' Up! events in the United States yet we live only about 2 hours from each other (Joanne and Lynda are in the Hamilton-ish area)  I couldn't wait to see them.  Pretty much one of the first things I wanted to see was Joanne's stamp room.  I loved it!  It was so spacious but also it was decorated in such an inspiring way.  There were samples everywhere.  The pictures don't adequately capture everything but hopefully you get the idea.  She has a room where she stores her stamps and stamps for herself, and then a larger adjacent room where she has her classes.

Joanne had prepared different samples using the soon to be released Reason to Smile stamp set.  This stamp set will only be available in July and the best part is that it's only $5 with a $60 order.  A $5 stamp set?! YES!  That's a reason to smile for sure!

Pretty funky with tempting turquoise heat embossing! Check out the new argyle emobssing folder.

Contact me to come to a class where you can place your $60 order to get your $5 stamp set! (Or of course you can always shop online!  www.genevieve.stampinup.net)
