A Great Night - But There's Still More!

Who's coming to see me tomorrow?

It was a busy Friday night and it was so great to see some familiar crafters plus meet some new ones!  If you're concerned that there might not be much left for tomorrow morning's sale...think again!!

These pictures were taken after my sale closed tonight!

You Guessed It - More Open House & Sale Pictures!

More Open House & Sale Pictures!

Bin of Re-Inkers Various Colors - $2 each
Bin of Rolls of Ribbon - Some Brand New never used and some used.  Prices vary depending on style of ribbon and what's left on the roll.  If you're looking for a specific retired color - let me know - I may have it!  I would guess that these will go quickly as I've never had rolls of ribbon at my sale before!!!

The last picture is one of three mini bundles I have available for anyone looking for a small / affordable gift idea!  These bundles contain 4 items:  A wooden stamp set, An Ink Spot, A package of mini vanilla cards and A package of 2-gift boxes!  These bundles are an amazing deal at just $15 each as the stamp set alone is worth $12-$15!!

Each bundle has a different stamp set so be sure to check them out while you're here!

Pictures of Sale Items!

Sharing some of the pictures from my last Open House & Sale.  Some of the items within the pictures have sold but many are still available + lots of new table additions!

If you see anything you're interested in, email me and I can confirm if it's still available before you make the trip to Dorchester!  Just a few more days...make your shopping list!!

Announcing August Open House & Sale Dates!

I'm sure this will come as no surprise...

Here are the dates for my August Open House & Sale(s):

Friday August 23rd:  6-8pm
Saturday August 24th: 9-11am

The sale will be held in my home in Dorchester.  Please email me at lisaburns@rogers.com for sale address.

This sale will have plenty for anyone that either crafts themselves, needs a gift for someone that crafts, or just likes giving away handmade gifts (but doesn't necessarily like making them)! 

I will share more pictures & details of items that will be available at this sale over the next week and within multiple blog posts!  The first part of the sale I would like to tell you about is the infamous Surplus or 2 FOR 1 sale.  Everything you see on this table is part of the Surplus Sale concept and the items are FREE!  That's right...you read that correctly FREE!!  Instead of paying for these items, you take the equivalent value of the products you select and you order at least that value in the current Idea Book & Catalogue.  So for example, if you decide you'd like a stamp set from this table valued at $24.95 you take that stamp set home for free and you order whatever you'd like from the SU! catalogue with a subtotal of $24.95!!  Awesome eh!?!  Regular shipping & taxes apply to the catalogue order only and cash / credit can be accepted as payment.

I'll be back tomorrow with more sale pictures & information.  Have a great night everyone!

Open House & Surplus Sale

I've had some questions about what will be available at my Open House/Sale this coming Friday night (7-9pm)... so I thought I would post some items!

Ribbon Shares
I have some left! They've been bundled in manageable & cost friendly bundles so don't miss out on this opportunity to try out some different ribbon colors & styles but getting one of these shares for yourself!

Designer Paper
I will have retired Stampin' Up! Designer Paper available to purchase 'by the sheet'!

Stamp Sets
Perhaps I should have put this category first as I have a truck-load of amazing retired stamp sets, both gently used and brand new available for the taking! Rather than listing all of the sets (which would take WAY, WAY too long), I thought it would be helpful to list some catogories instead! I have sets for all occasions, including: Spring, Summer, Fall & Winter!

Remember - these sets are all FREE! You take the retired sets home with you tomorrow night and place an equivalent order from the NEW 2010 Idea Book & Catalogue! 2 for 1 stamps - SWEET!

A few other things included in this sale...
Punches, Rub Ons, Simply Scrappin' Kits, Handmade scrapbook kits, Handmade cards & other projects for sale, Embellishments (ie. HodgePodge samples, Eyelets, Brads)

as well as LOTS AND LOTS of project samples!! RSVP by the eInvite sent out August 1st, or email me directly at lisaburns@rogers.com! Just 2 more sleeps!!

Open House Date!

Thank you to all of those that have emailed me to ask about my Open House date(s) - I'm thrilled to share the date with you now! I've been waiting to better understand my 2010 IB & Catalogue shipment tracking but I can't wait any longer - I'm bursting at the seams to share the dates with you!

So, in similar fashion as last year - I'm booking a Saturday morning Open House date. This date will be open to EVERYONE! It will be a rain or shine event. Here's what you can expect at the Open House:

1) My HUGE Surplus Sale

2) Prizes and munchies

3) New 2010 Product - including the new In Colors, some new stamp sets, designer paper etc.

4) Lots of samples to view - bring a camera if you wish

5) Upcoming class and club information & projects!

and of course...

THE NEW 2010 IDEA BOOK & CATALOGUE! You need to allow yourself some time to come in and sit down with this book! Trust me - it will be time well spent :o)

If you are on my customer distribution list, you'll be receiving an eInvitation. Please RSVP to that as it will assist me greatly in understanding my guest numbers for food & prizes etc. If you are not on my customer distribution list, but would like more information on the sale - please email me directly at lisaburns@rogers.com and I would be happy to provide those details!

So...wanna know the date/time? Ok.

Saturday June 27, 2009

Can't wait to see you then!
