Holiday Boutique: I'll be at the Dancing Dragonfly Winery in St Croix Falls, WI on Saturday 12/4. The Boutique is 11am - 5pm. Hourly drawing for prizes will be held throughout the event and mulled wine tasting. This is a great way to have fun while shopping for gifts. This winery is a favorite of mine. They have a large variety of wine offerings and have won many prizes for their wines. it is well worth the drive to visit this winery. Consider purchasing a few bottles for your holiday events or gifts to that favorite wine lover.
Coffee & Cards: Monthly event will be on Tuesday, December 14, 10 am at Café Cravings. We'll be making Thank You cards. I already have 6 people signed up, so I will not be advertising this one on FB. I can accommodate up to 8 for this event, so just email me if you would like to attend.
Eden's Garden Suite promotion: Early order is available through 1/3/2022. Check out the details in my prior blog post and flyer The following exclusive products are only available while supplies last and will not be offered in the Jan-June Mini catalog:

Supply chain interruptions: Important: Due to ongoing supply chain issues affecting the world, eff. 12/1/2021, Stampin' Up! is no longer taking backorders. When product is depleted, a message will pop up advising the item is no longer orderable. Any items ordered prior to 12/1 on backorder will remain until fulfilled. Stampin' Up! is doing everything they can to keep product in stock; they are not ordering less or keeping inventory low. This change is an opportunity to more effectively manage and streamline the ordering process, reduce
ongoing frustrations, and provide greater opportunities to create together by focusing on what is
available rather than what is not
December Host code: KSDVUCJV Online orders can use this link/code or give me a call to place your order in this workshop. Remember, orders over $65 will earn my free VIP/Loyalty Gift. For December it will be an embellishment pack from the new Jan-June mini catalog, so I won't be able to deliver until Jan.
Looking Ahead: Current Card Club group will meet at my house on Saturday, Jan 15 at 10:30am. What' a club? See this flyer for details. I'm looking to start up another club group, but I need 4 people who will commit to meet quarterly and place the minimum order of $37.50. This is a great way to get some new ideas/techniques to create while slowly growing your inventory of products. Let me know if you are interested.
