MDS Blog Hop - What I'm working on May - What I've got in the works

Welcome back! I seriously am dumbfounded with how quickly this month has gone. Only a few weeks until school is out for us. The one thing on my mind right now is how quickly we will all be enjoying a brand new Stampin' Up! catalog. The last few weeks I have been stamping like a mad woman for upcoming Artisan Blog Hops and Convention Display Boards and my own classes.... phew! I have started a Facebook group for my local Las Vegas stampers so that I can more easily invite them to events and share fun stuff with them. Being as I get to add a cover photo to these events, I thought it would be nice to create some covers....

My "Catalog Kick Off Party" will be on the 30th - and is starting to look like it's going to be quite the party! Are you in the Las Vegas area? I'd love to have you join us. I am amassing quite a bit of chocolate for the night already....

I can not wait to share the PURE AWESOMENESS of the new Blendabilities markers from Stampin' Up! Once they release, I hope to hold regular classes teaching the fun techniques with them.

The Perfect Pumpkin. I've been trying to get it figured out. I figured out it was high time to start procrastinating. Monthly get togethers putting together our Paper Pumpkin kits and getting ideas to make MORE from the supplies!

***Speaking of My Paper Pumpkin - would you like a kit at 50% OFF? If you sign up today or tomorrow, you can get your JUNE kit for half off!!!" Click HERE and use the code SHELLIDEAL - I will pick one lucky person who signs up during this time to receive a previously released kit - FREE!!!! ****

I might be most excited about this. For all of my awesome readers that aren't in Las Vegas, I am working out the details to get a "Stamps and Projects" monthly kit in the mail program! Details on this will be coming soon - VERY soon - so stay tuned!

I would love to know what you think. Also, I know that this team never disappoints, so head on over to my talented friend Julie Davidse - she always wows me!

Have you purchased all of the items that you want from the RETIRING LIST? I HOPE SO - some are completely SOLD OUT - but guess what? Stampin' Up! loves us and is marking down prices on the items left starting this morning!!! ACT QUICKLY - they will be going even quicker now!
