Mid South Scrappers Event Updates!

Mid South Scrappers Event Updates! More Have Been Scheduled!

Hello Ladies ~

First, I'll apologize for the second newsletter in just a few days but there were several things (dates and events) up in the air that I can now talk about. So ... As promised, here's the updates for crops and weekends for Mid South Scrappers!

I do thank you for your time!

Terry

This Saturday's 'All Day & Into the Night Crop

Has a Few More Spaces Available!

Comfort Suites

4090 Stansell Court

Memphis, TN 38125

Saturday, January 29th from 9 a.m. - 9 p.m.

I've been in contact with Comfort Suites and have been allowed to use the Conference Room which is accessed through the Meeting Room! This gives us 6 more spaces! Since this crop is this Saturday, if you'd like to come, please email me and I'll put you down for one of those spaces. (You will be in a separate room but not totally away from everyone else.)

We will be on the 'honor system' for these spaces in that you're going to follow through with coming and not canceling at the last minute. You will need to print off a registration form to fill out and bring with you and your fee to the crop.

Please email me at: terry@midsouthscrappers.com if you'd like to claim one of these spaces.

Thanks!

Advanced Card Workshop with Crop Time to Follow

at Kathy's in Olive Branch!

Saturday, February 12th from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.

Kathy's offered to host an 'Advanced Card Workshop' at her home in Olive Branch, MS. We will begin the day with a small advanced card workshop, making three cards/two of each one for a total of six cards. I believe this will take us from 10 a.m. until noon. We'll have lunch and then spend the rest of the time cropping on whatever you bring to work on.

Kathy and I will provide your lunch, a few snacks and beverages for the day. Your fee for this crop is $30. This fee includes your lunch, snacks and beverages and your workshop materials with the exception of you bringing your own adhesives.

A couple of things to consider ~
You must have done some card workshops before as we'll be moving right along. We'll be making a total of 6 cards in two hours!

There's only room for six croppers.

You need to email me independently for the registration form in order to attend.

We look forward to hearing back from you!

February 19th 'All Day & Into the Night Crop!

Comfort Suites

4090 Stansell Court

Memphis, TN 38125

Saturday, February 19th - 9 a.m. - 9 p.m.

Since the January 29th 'All Day and Into the Night Crop' filled up prior to being able to use the Conference Room I've booked another crop! The Registration/Information form will go up on the Mid South Scrappers website, www.midsouthscrappers.com, next Sunday. I believe in giving crop and weekend attendees first dibs on their space for the following event, so any spaces not taken, will be up for grabs beginning Sunday.

I will have a Close To My Heart Workshop to offer but it's too soon for a decision as to what's that is going to be at this time.

Let's Try Another 2-Day Crop at St. Stephens!

St. Stephens United Methodist Church!

3981 Macon Road, Memphis, TN 38122

(At the corner of Macon & Graham.)

Friday, March 18th from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.

Saturday, March 19th from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.

There's separate fees for each day!

You'll get a price break if you attend both days!

I believe the previous attempt for this crop was too close after Christmas. While several of us were ready for some serious cropping time, not everyone was able to do so. Plus, there were several that couldn't come on Friday due to jobs, etc. so there are prices per day or a combined rate if you can come for both!

The Registration/Information form will be loaded on the Mid South Scrappers website this afternoon or you can email me and I'll send you one, either way is fine.

Let's make this one a success!

Thrifty Option No Longer Available

The 'Thrifty Option', that of sharing a bed and table with another cropper will no longer be available for all future weekends. Due to lack of interest, I will no longer offer this option. The people that have tried this previously have always upgraded to the 'Luxury Option' on their return.

Since this is not a 'big hit' with you croppin' ladies, I don't believe this will be a problem.

Jackson/Vicksburg Area Weekend Crop ...

Your Feedback is Needed!

I am in the process of putting together a weekend crop down in the Jackson/Vicksburg, MS area and need your feedback! I would like to hear from my clients that live in that area that would be interested in attending.

I also need vendors that would be interested in setting up a booth. This event is tentatively set for the end of September. I'm specifically looking for a Creative Memories Consultant, a scrapbook store or two and a clothing/t-shirt vendor.

I believe we'll be able to accommodate up to 50 croppers at this event with everyone having an entire 6 foot table to themselves.

Please let me hear back from you as I begin this quest!

You can email me at: terry@midsouthscrappers.com. All input will be greatly appreciated!

Again, I do apologize for sending out two newsletters so close to together. Please check the Mid South Scrappers Facebook page for updates as to the filling of the events listed above. I'll do my very best not to send out another newsletter until the end of February ... LOL

Thanks for your time and interest in the Mid South Scrappers Events!

Late January Newsletter

Mid South Scrappers & Close to My Heart Newsletter

Hello Mid South Scrappers and CTMH Clients!

January is almost over and February is rushing right in. With that has been more snow fall than we've seen around the Mid South in quite a few years and they are forecasting more! I think we're all pretty much ready for it to all move on and our normal climate to regain control.

While this newsletter is dedicated to Close To My Heart information, I will be sending out another newsletter in the next week or so with new crop dates and updates on the March Pajama Crop Party Weekend. I've got several emails out for crop and workshop dates, so you'll be looking forward to the next newsletter.

As always, there's lots to cover so please read through it carefully. It'll be easy to miss something ...

Thanks for your time and have a great week!

January Stamp of the Month ends 1/31/11!

If you've checked out the January Stamp of the Month, you may have been scratching your head like I was. However, upon trying to enter a CTMH Blog Hop, I 'had' to come up with something and look how it turned out! There's SO much that you can do with this stamp set when you start playing with it and you should see what other CTMHer's came up with! Amazing! This is a 'TriShutter Card' and the instructions on how to make it can be found on Split Coast Stampers. It's not as hard as it looks! It takes more planning on where to put what than anything. There's more pics on my blog, "Too Many Hobbies & Never Enough Time"

The January "Inspirations" catalog also ends on 1/31/11! Along with it are the specials offered on the five stamps sets in this little catalog when you purchase the "Wings Workshop on the Go". If you opt to purchase the Wings WOTG and all five stamp sets, you will save $25.75 over the stamp sets alone! This automatically qualifies you for the January Stamp of the Month FREE which brings your savings up to $48.70! What a deal! You don't have to buy all five stamp sets, you can pick and choose. Any savings on stamp sets is always a plus! Not to mention you're getting a stamp set in the Wings Workshop on the Go.

Workshops on the Go in the Autumn/Winter Catalog GO AWAY after 1/31/11! You don't want to miss out! (I've got my stash already!)
The Workshops on the Go are like the Stamps of the Month, they are only available while that catalog is current. The Autumn/Winter 2010 catalog expires on 1/31/11 and our new catalog goes into effect on 2/1/11! I've already seen it and it's GORGEOUS! But, with the new, comes loosing the old and I'm especially fond of the Mistletoe, Magnifique and Olivia Workshops on the Go!

Let me explain what a 'Workshop on the Go' is ... You get a Level 2 Paper Pack, a B-Sized Stamp Set (only available with that WOTG) and another item, usually an embellishment or other item for embellishing. You CAN NOT buy those stamp sets out right, which also adds a great value and draw for the WOTG's. The WOTG's are located on pages 24 - 25 of the Autumn/Winter 2010 Catalog.

Here's a link that will let you look at each one. WOTG's - Check Them Out!

Discontinued Products You MUST See to Believe!

Close To My Heart has been cleaning house and have some AWESOME deals for you! Some of the items were previously available to Consultants Only! There are rub-on's, ribbon galore, 4 different card kits, brads, several Level 1 packs, album pages, Journaling Prompts a Level 2 paper pack and several other items, really too many to list.

Here's the link specifically for the Discontinued Products!

You can order as many as you want, too! I just placed an order and most everything on it was from the Discontinued Products page! The products are even cheaper than what I could buy them for prior to being discontinued.

The New Spring/Summer 2011 Catalog!

Our new catalog is full of beautiful paper packs! There are 8 new paper packs and 8 new Workshops on the Go! You'll be able to see the Stamp of the Month for six months! There are at least 75 new stamp sets and a ton of new embellishments!

Along with all the new items comes lots of new ideas for scrapbooking and cardmakers! Place an order on My CTMH website through 1/31/11 and I'll mail your new catalog out to you FREE!
