Luau Catalog Launch Party Winners Announced

Posted on June 25, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

Want to see more photos from my Luau Catalog Launch Party? Yesterday I shared with you some photos of everyone working on the Make ‘n Takes so today I thought I’d share a couple photos of the food table.

This first one is the whole table – sigh, I thought I was doing so good Sunday but I took this before I heated up the yummy crab dip. Many of you commented on how much you liked the punch. Well the punch I made this year was sooo quick and easy.

Want to know the secret recipe? Well I was feeling rather adventurous earlier this spring and ran across Tampico Punch in a gallon jug at my local Ingles and so I gave the Mango Punch a try. Added a 2 liter bottle of Ginger ale and voila’ – my Luau punch was discovered! Like I said quick and easy, right?

Here is a close up photo of my cupcakes. I think these little flip flops are just too stinking cute! I found them on Pinterest for my daughter’s graduation party and had so much fun making them I thought the ladies would enjoy them too. Aren’t they cute?

Last but not least here is my display table showing off some of our new products in the 2013-2014 Catalog.

I bet your asking yourself – What about the door prize? As well as the Retirement List Hostess Code and FREE Shipping Contest winners from April’s contests? right? Don’t worry I haven’t forgotten… lol.

As promised here are the lucky winners! Drum roll please…….

The lucky Luau Catalog Launch Party Grand Prize Winner (valued at over $50) is………….Check out my quick video of the drawing………oh the suspense!

And now for the Retirement List Hostess Code and FREE Shipping Contest winners:

The following two winners will receive an assortment of our Tag a Bag items, one of our NEW Catalog products (each assortment includes some of our Tag a Bag Gift Bags, Tag a Bag Boxes along and an assortment from the Accessory Kit – valued at over $10)

Retirement Hostess Code Drawing – Sue

Flower Shop

Posted on June 24, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

This past weekend I held my Luau Catalog Launch Party here in Clarkesville and wanted to share with you the Make n’ Take we made using the Flower Shop Stamp Set (item 130939/130942).

I made this card using our Flower Shop Bundle (Item 132727/132726 found on page 95) in our NEW 2013-2014 Catalog. Did you know that there are more bundles than ever are available in the new catalog? And when you purchase any bundle you’ll get a 15% discount! How great is that!

Don’t you love our NEW In Colors they’re just so yummy? I used the Crisp Cantaloupe from the 2013-2015 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack (item 130136) and teamed it up with Calypso Coral for a soft tone on tone look.

I think everyone had a good time getting together, seeing all the new catalog items, getting some free goodies, and stamping their Make and Take.

Here are some pictures of everyone stamping on Sunday afternoon. (Ooops, I forgot to take pictures on Saturday.)

I always love to see how my stamping friends change up a design when they make their own. I’ve got such a creative group of ladies.

Six-Sided Sampler Birthday

Posted on June 10, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s card is one that I created this weekend during the Blue Mountain Stamper’s Retreat with my brother in mind. I thought this set, with its great hexagon images, would be perfect for a masculine card. His birthday was Saturday so this will be a bit late, but I’m sure he won’t mind. I used the Six-Sided Sampler Bundle (item 132725/132724) along with the Really Good Greetings (item 130330/130333) from the NEW 2013-2014 Catalog.

Isn’t it great that we have more bundles offered in the NEW 2013-2014 Catalog like the NEW Six-Sided Sampler Bundle? Not only do you get the stamp set and punch, but you’ll get a 15% discount when ordering them together! It’s a win, win right?

I mentioned in my last post that I was getting ready for my Blue Mountain Stampers’ Retreat. I can’t tell you how much fun I had spending the whole weekend with my fellow demonstrators. I believe everyone whole heartedly agreed that we should at least make it a yearly event, maybe more – This event is now one of the perks of being part of my team – Fellowship, Fun and Sharing (along with an all night slumber party! What great girl time or just time away from the stresses of regular life, yippee!) Some of the girls have never been to my home here in Clarkesville so they really enjoyed the scenery and quiet. And believe me creative juices flowed well into the night; I know I was shocked to see it was the week hours of the morning when I looked up at the clock!

Here is a shot of my classroom set up and ready for the event.

A snack table for goodies to recharge and of course lots of coffee, caffeine and chocolate at the ready!

And another of some of us working

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Six-Sided Sampler (item 130953/130956), Really Good Greetings (item 130330/130333)

Inks: Crushed Curry, Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, and Smoky Slate

Paper: Crushed Curry, Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, and Very Vanilla

Accessories: Hexagon Punch (item 130919), Dimensionals, and Stampin’ Write Markers

What’s Your Best Guess?

Posted on April 9, 2013 by Stamp with Jini

It won’t be long and this year’s Retirement List will be out – There is always a lot of speculation as to which stamp sets will be on the retirement list and this year I thought it would be fun to see who can guess what’s on this year’s list.

So…… I thought why not make it a contest to see who predicts most accurately, and of course, there has to be a prize if it’s a contest – Right? And I have something special for that lucky winner.

Sound like fun? Want to see if you are the one who gets the most right? Who will be the closest? You or maybe your friend? Well there is only one way to test yourself and see how you stack up. Are you up to the challenge and want to play?

Well here are the details-

Make a list of the top 10 stamp sets that you think are retiring. Then add 1 more in case I need a tie breaker.
Send me an email – subject line Retirement Party Contest (to StampwithJini@gmail.com)
Include your name, address, and phone number (I’ll need these if you’re the winner so I can get your prize to you.) along with your list
Email me you list by 9 p.m. Friday, April 19^th

Then sit back and wait for the Retirement List…..It’s coming soon and if you’re on my mailing list I’ll send one right to your inbox when it is announce later this month! If you’re not on my mailing list why not sign up now? You’ll find my sign up box for my Newsletter at the top right hand corner right here on my blog – And you’ll receive a free gift when you do – a free tutorial just for you!
