I know that it’s only the 20th of April, but with the incentive trip to Cancun from the 29th of April to May 4, if I don’t start planning now I’ll be behind all of May. May is one of my favorite months of the year – between end of school and the start of summer vacation, the beautiful spring flowers to plant, the warmer temperatures with little humidity – it’s a great month. AND, if you throw in the Annual Catalog going live in the Stampin’ Up world, that’s all the better!!! So, here’s a look at SOME of the upcoming events!
- April 23 – 1 thru 7pm – Easter Samplers in person, kits also mailed out this day!
- April 23 – Trucking Along Product Based Class ready for pick up and also mailed out!
- Now thru May 11 – Paper/Ribbon Shares reservations continue – check below for details!
- April 29 thru May 4 – Ordering Special while I’m in Mexico. – check back for details!
- May 1 – 2024 ANNUAL CATALOG goes live!!!!! First order of paper share reservations are placed!
- May 13 – Online Speed Bingo with Fun Folds!!! This is becoming a popular event – bingo, gift certificates, AND a class!!!
- May 15 – In Person Bingo!!!! Perfect way to see new products available in the Annual Catalog!
- May 20 – Mayberry Card Guild
- May 23 – Monthly Card Class – Let’s make MASCULINE cards!
That’s not including Stamp ‘n Sip or our Technique classes, AND there will be a pop up class with the Zinnias as well, so busy times ahead!!
Paper/Ribbon Shares Continue!!!
Reservations are still coming in for the 2024 Paper/Ribbon shares and I will continue to hold this open until May 11. RESERVATIONS RECEIVED BEFORE MAY 1 will be placed when the catalog goes live and hopefully before any of the DSP goes on backorder! Any reservations after that will be ordered after the 4 share slots are filled. This means those who reserve before May 1 will get their shares quicker.
There are several options available, so be sure to check out the link below to reserve your share. Whether you are wanting all the NEW DSP and SPECIALTY DSP only, the COLOR COLLECTION packs only, the NEW RIBBONS only, or the GOT TO HAVE IT ALL – this is always the best way to pick up the new products so you know exactly which ones you want more of!

Final Thoughts…..
Proud music teacher nana here wants to share a little tidbit with you about our granddaughter Nora. This week – besides the 3rd grade opera of Smelly Socks (which incidentally, she rocked!) Nora also auditioned for a summer repertory theatre in the Saint Louis area. They will be performing the opera Carmen and she called to tell us she is in the chorus as a town youngster!
I used Carmen during my unit on opera with my 4th grade elementary classes because my boys loved the whole bullfighting, soldiers and swords! Talk about a teaching hook!!!! Pool Boy Papa thinks he’s off the hook from seeing Carmen this summer since he attended the Smelly Socks opera!! LOL!!!! I may have to try that 4th grade music less on him! Way to go Nora for stepping out and trying something new!!!
Until next time, have a wonderful weekend and I hope you find some time to craft, create, and enjoy what makes you happy! God Bless!!!
