Thank you to everyone who attended my New Catalog Open House yesterday. I hope you all had fun!
I had some simple refreshments and lots of projects on display. I also had retired merchandise for sale and offered those in attendance their chance to sell unwanted stamping and scrapbooking items. Only Shannon Aydukovic took advantage of the chance to sell some of her old supplies and she did really well. She got a $26 credit to spend with me on new goodies from the new catalog!
Everyone who attended also received a little goodie bag filled with some retired accessories like buttons, Fleurettes, Flower Fusion flowers, and Designer Hardware Eyelets. The bag was topped with a Top Note and Thanks Embosslit.
I also had Door Prize Drawings. Beverly Pugsley won a Patterns Pack II package of Designer Papers, Maria Flashman won a Lots of Thoughts Stamp Set, and Shannon Aydukovic won a Polka Dot Punches Stamp Set.
Of course, everyone spent most of their time here making the projects that were available. I had 9 different projects they could make and they could make up to 3 of each if they wanted. Here's pictures of the "new" projects that were available:
