Hello!
I want to touch on several items today:

2. There will be All Attendee gifts for each person that signs up for the Christmas Card Workshop(s). This is limited to one gift per Attendee (not per session). Just wanted to get that out there so no-one was disappointed.

3. As an additional gift, I'll pay your shipping and handling AND sales tax on any orders placed by attendees at the Christmas Card Workshops. So, bring your wishlist and lots of adhesive with you :)

4. Complete class info and pictures for November will be posted next week but here is your Save the Date information:

Here they are and it's time to start signing up for your choice of cards and sessions! 

Here's how it works:
  • All Cards are done in sets of 10. The price you see is per 10 of the same card (unless otherwise noted) and you'll receive 10 envelopes as well.
  • Minimum quantity per attendee / per session is 2 sets.
  • There is NO maximum number of sets, but you may need as much as an hour per set to finish. This means you may need to come to more than one session if you're making a lot of cards. OR, you can finish one of each card and get everything ready on the others so that you can finish assembling them at home if you run out of time. 
  • All cards are A2 sized (4-1/4 x 5- 1/2")
  • Prices and descriptions (if necessary) are listed below each card.
  • I'll have everything cut and prepped for you, so that all you have to do is stamp, embellish and assemble.
  • All ribbon bows will be tied for you! Yes, it's true :) I like to spoil you and that means they'll all be tied for you before you get here. Don't you love it?! 
  • With the exception of card 3, your dry embossing and heat embossing will be done beforehand also! You can always ask if you want to see a demonstration of how easy this is to do!
  • I'll have light snacks available. I'll also offer coffee, tea, and water. Want something else? BYOB in a container with a lid, please.
  • Please bring your own adhesive and scissors. Bring extra adhesive with you (or better yet, order it from me prior to class and I'll have it waiting for you). You'll go through a lot of adhesive at these workshops so come prepared!
  • I'll have all-attendee gifts AND specials the day of your workshop!
  • Payment accepted via cash, check or Credit Cards (call me or request a paypal invoice).

Session 1: Sunday, October 26th, 1:00 to 4:30pm (Prepay  no later than 10/10) Session Full

There's still plenty of space in the 2nd and 3rd sessions:
Session 2: Friday, Nov 21st, 9:00am to 2:00pm (Prepay no later than 11/8)
Session 3: Sunday, Nov 23rd, 1:00 to 4:30pm (prepay no later than 11/8)

Please note: There will be a strict limit of 8 students per session. This is so that you have a more relaxed, enjoyable time stamping your cards AND also so I'll be more available to help with questions. I've got 3 sessions scheduled, but I'm open to scheduling more if the demand is there. Because of the limited number of spaces available, your payment will serve as your RSVP.  If space fills before your payment arrives, I'll contact you to arrange another session. 
Note: Only those people actually paid to attend will be welcomed to each session. Thank you for understanding.

And, If you have a group of 4-8 stampers, doing at least 15 sets of cards total, you might consider scheduling a private session. There's no additional cost and I can accommodate most schedules.

If YOU don't see something you like, contact me and I can design something just for you. You can still join us at the workshops and work on them!


Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks :)

Catalog Kick-off Rescheduled

There is so much going on now, I don't know where to start.  If you're on facebook, you may have noticed that my Dad passed away a couple of weeks ago. He was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer on July 14th and passed away just 5 short weeks later. I miss him, and losing him and my Mom within 13 months of each other has been awful. Once Dad's ashes are returned, we're going to be holding a small private ceremony to scatter them. He and Mom always wanted them mixed together and scattered at the same time so that they could be together forever. Isn't that sweet?

Now my sister and I are working on getting their house and it's contents ready for auction. I had no idea how stuff they had accumulated over the years. And we're constantly being reminded of little things about them. For example, Mom's habit of putting new pictures in front of stacks of old pics inside frames. Some of the ones in the back, we had both forgotten about. And there are some that we WISH we could've forgotten (wink, wink). Anyway, it's been a lot of work and we're both exhausted. We're starting to see some light at the end of the tunnel and have a tentative date set in November, as long as we can get the Auctioneer in this week.

We also lost a dear member of our scrapbooking and rubber stamping community. On Sept. 1st, Amy Hartman lost her 5 year battle with Colon Cancer. She and I had known each other for close to 15 years and classes & crops are not going to be the same without her around. I'm going to miss talking to her after class. One of the coolest memories I have of her... One day after class was over, Amy hung around to talk (like she did frequently) and a little while later when she got ready to leave we walked out front and my entire front yard was full of dragonflies! It was beautiful. She and I had both heard that dragonflies are the messengers of angels. We looked at each other and said I wonder which one of us they're here for? It really was an amazing experience and now I'll think of her every time I see one.

To top that all off, I've had Bronchitis and everything that goes with that for the last week or so, which kept me from Amy's services.

SO... I know that we were supposed to have a catalog kickoff event this week, and I probably could still do it, but I would NOT be doing it justice. Instead, so that I have time to get samples ready to share and really bring this wonderful catalog justice, I'm postponing it until Wednesday, September 24th at 7pm and Thursday, September 25th at 10am. If you need anything in the meantime, let me know and I can put in a customer direct order. I'll post more information on it soon.

Thanks,
Have a great day! Terri :) phone: 614.777.9288 email: terri.meehan@att.net

Classes for August & Beginning of September

Ladies- I really am trying to get you pictures of the projects, but wanted to at least give you the details. Please keep checking back. I AM working on the samples, but things here have not been great. My Dad is very, very sick and I'm having a hard time finding my creative mojo. Turns out his Cancer has spread (bone, kidney, lymph node, muscle, lungs) and is considered Stage 4. So now he's in Arizona and I don't know if I'm ever going to see him again. It's been really hard, I'm sure you can imagine...

Anyway- Here are the classes I'm holding the rest of this month and into September:

Oops! July Calendar Updates...

Happy 4th of July, everyone! I don't know about you but I find myself getting very emotional every 4th of July. I really think we live in the greatest nation on Earth, and it overwhelms me with pride and gratitude for everything that we have here. We already had a lot of fun this morning, watching Nathan march with the Darby Marching Band in our parade. Most of the family is coming over for a cookout this afternoon and then we'll go see fireworks tonight. All in all, it's shaping up to be the perfect day!

I was just sitting here think about the many blessings in my life, and it occurred to me (because I count Stampin' Up! and all of you as huge blessings in my life) that I have a 2 more July Stampin' Up! Events that I neglected to tell you about in my last post. I know, shame on me :(

But, Here you go:

Terri's Downline Meeting
My Stampin' Up! Downline meets here at my home on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. These are the ladies and gentlemen that have signed up to sell Stampin' Up! under me or any of my downline. We meet each month to talk about business, share ideas and stories, and stamp! It's a really fun evening and anyone that is currently a demonstrator in my downline, or is thinking about signing up to sell Stampin' Up! is welcome to join us. It's just $5 at the door and you need to bring scissors and adhesive with you. 

Date: Tuesday, July 8th
Time: 7:00 to approx. 9:00pm
RSVP no later than Monday, July 7th at Midnight so that I can make sure to have your Make and Take Kit ready for you. (Note: we usually do RSVP's earlier than this, but the last couple of months have snuck up on me!)

Crop Night
Date: Friday, July 25th
Time: 5:00 to 10:00pm
Cost: $18 Prepaid to reserve your spot.

Bring your own tools and scrapbooks/ paper projects to work on or purchase kits while you're here. You'll have access to borrow my stamps, punches and inks, as well as limited access to my Big Shot machine/dies/embossing folders and my scrap drawers (organized alphabetically by color name, of course... because that's just how I roll!). I'll provide light snacks. BYOB. Size is limited to 6 people. As of July 4th, I have FOUR spaces left.

=================================================
Have a great day!

May Classes and Events

Hello!

Well, we've just returned from vacation and I've got a lot of things to share with you. I took a broadband connection with me this year in the hopes that I would be able to update my blog while I was away. HOWEVER, it must be the physical location instead of the WiFi connection at our condo that gives us problems. I wasn't able to get online most of the time and websites (such as Blogger) that take a long time to load, I wasn't able to get to load at all. Note: we stay on Manasota Key, and it's pretty removed from anything, we even had problems with our phone connections some of the time.

I'm in the process of planning my classes for the entire summer, but I won't have my Sneak Peek copy of the new catalog until late this afternoon. So, I'll go ahead and post my May classes, but please give me a few days to digest the new catalog and decide what and when I can actually teach classes that are based on the new product. Isn't that exciting?

Here are my May Stampin' Up! Events (Note: if you prefer a calendar view, click on this link-www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/terrimeehanstamps/events?month=5&year=2014 ) You can also see some information at this link for upcoming months.

You'll create 4 cards in class, including envelopes. I'll also offer exclusive class specials. The best thing about this class?

April Class Schedule

I hope you all are enjoying the Sunshine today as much as I am :)

Here are my April Classes. You may notice that there is nothing scheduled the last two weeks in April. That's by design because I'll be at Englewood Beach at that time. So, we've just got three weeks to cram in some really fun classes this month. 

Ready? Here we go!

Technique and a Template (Hostess Club)
Dates: Wednesday Evening, April 2nd, 7:00 to approx. 8:30pm
*OR* Thursday Morning, April 3rd, 10:00 to approx. 11:30am
Cost: $10 or FREE with a minimum $25 Catalog Purchase that evening

This month we're mixing things up a bit. You'll learn the Faux Flocked Wallpaper Technique and make a 6x6 sample with instructions as well as a greeting card featuring this technique. You'll also make a 6x6 template for the Starburst Card and a greeting card featuring this technique. This template sheet comes complete with all dimensions and basic instructions! Please bring scissors and favorite adhesives. RSVP to save your spot in class!

File Folder Cards
Dates: Wednesday Evening, April 9th, 7:00 to approx 9:00pm
*OR* Thursday Morning, April 10th, 10:00am to approx Noon
Cost: $18 (Get a Refund of $12 when you make a minimum $15 catalog purchase at this class)

Join us as we make 8 fun cards that look like File Folders!  That's 2 each of 4 different designs. Envelopes are included. Everything, with the exception of the folder edges will be pre-cut and ready for you to finish the edges with the Envelope Punch Board and your own paper trimmer. Then you'll just stamp, embellish and assemble! You'll want to bring your own paper trimmer, scissors and favorite adhesives with you. RSVP with class payment no later than April 2nd to guarantee your spot in this unusual class!

April Cards
Dates: Wednesday Evening, April 16th, 7:00 to approx 9:00pm
*OR* Thursday Evening, April 17th, 10:00am to approx Noon
Cost: $18 (Get a Refund of $12 when you make a minimum $15 catalog purchase at this class)

If April Showers bring May Flowers, what do April Cards bring? Smiles!!! Join us and create 3 each of 4 different bright and fun Spring Cards. That's a total of 12 cards for those of you keeping track! Everything will be cut and prepped; ready for you to stamp, embellish and assemble. Envelopes are included. Please bring your favorite adhesives and scissors with you. RSVP with class payment no later than April 2nd to guarantee your spot in this class!

I hope to see you at one or more classes this month.
Thanks!

Lots of stuff today!!!


Good Morning! It really is :) I feel the fog starting to lift. Thank you for being so understanding about my need for some family time. That's one of the things I love about my job, if I need to be somewhere or do something, I can! 

To recap: It's been a rough year and a quarter! It seems like I've had more stress than any other time in my life. It all began on Dec 6th 2012, when we had a leak upstairs that caused water damage throughout the whole house (it took almost 6 months before we were back to normal). Then in Feb 2013, my mom was diagnosed with Breast Cancer (just as my daughter was finishing up her treatment). My 2nd son graduated from High School in June, mere days after the completed restoration of our house. Then mom passed away in July, Dad had a stroke in August and then moved temporarily out to Arizona to live with my brother. I felt like I lost both parents! September brought on horrible pain from tennis AND golfer's elbow in both arms, which kept me from creating through paper crafting or knitting. That was rough, because those are my escapes from stress! Jan 6th of this year, the floor dropped out again when my Aunt nearly died at her home. She's a Widow with no kids, and my Dad is her only surviving sibling. He was in no shape to take care of her AND himself so I stepped in to help with her medical and financial stuff. I won't go into details, but you've seen the show hoarding? Just saying, I could be a TV star! We finally found an Independent Living Facility for her and move her in last Saturday. It's been a real challenge finding the things that she needs in her house. She has so much of everything, but very specific requests on what she needs. It's going to take MONTHS to get her house cleaned out. Oh my Goodness, and add all of the snow we've had lately. It's no wonder I've been depressed and sick! Hopefully things will go back to somewhat normal for us soon. It's chaotic enough with two teenagers in the house, I really don't need any more drama.

BUT... Today is a new day. I'm finally feeling better after being sick for the last week or so, my elbows are doing so much better (oh, so much better!), the sun is out and I'm going to make the rest of this week wonderful. Or else, LOL!

So, I have lots to share with you today. First, here are the pictures from my upcoming classes. I still have room in most sessions, you can pay at the door, but you must RSVP to make sure I save you a space, ok? Ok! ;) Note: You can see all class details in previous blog post here.

Watercolor Wonders Class

Have a wonderful day, I miss you guys!

February Class Updates

Hi Stampers- I wanted to let you know that I'm not going to be holding any classes this week and next. I'm really overwhelmed with family stuff right now and I need to take a couple of weeks where I don't have to prepare classes. I'll miss your smiling faces but hopefully you'll see a class below to attend. I'll come back and post pictures later. I do have everything for class designed with the exception of the techniques. I also wanted to let you all know that I've been trying to send out an email to those of you who normally come to class, but can't get into my email today. So please accept my apologies.

If I have an order here for you, let me know if you'd like to swing by and pick it up.

I know this is not ideal timing due to Sale-A-Bration going on. But if you have anything you need to order before the 19th, we can do it via email / phone AND I'll count it towards your Hostess Club totals.

See you tonight for Valentine's Class!

Ladies- I've decided to go ahead and have class tonight. The Hilliard City Schools were closed today, but since it was just due to the extremely low temps this morning, I don't really think we need to postpone any of the fun I have planned for this evening!

Don't forget your scissors and adhesive!
Stay Warm,
Terri :)

Watercolor Notecards Class being rescheduled

Hi- I just wanted to let you all know that tonight and tomorrow's Watercolor Notecards Classes are going to have to be rescheduled. Some type of stomach bug is visiting our house this week and I don't want anyone else to get sick. Sorry about that. I've sent out emails to those signed up.

I'm looking at possibly the 3rd week in February and I'll be posting a picture of the projects soon, they really turned out cute!

Stay warm!

Bring Catalogs, Please! ;)

Ladies- For all of you that are coming to class tonight and tomorrow, will you please bring your Occasions Mini Catalog with you? (if you received one in the mail). I have 2 here, but that's not enough to go around.

Darn this weather anyway. I have 3 orders out there with no updates in tracking because of it. My wonderful UPS Delivery Man has already been here today and brought me 1 order, but he didn't have any of the others. Now I'm off to figure out exactly what I do, and don't have. Bummer!

Thanks!

See you tonight,
Terri :)

Winter Weather Class Policy

PLEASE READ:  

I want to make sure everyone stays safe this winter, so here is my Winter Weather Class/Event Cancellation Policy.  
  • If MY schools, Hilliard City, are closed the day of a class, it will be rescheduled. 
  • Cancellation will be posted to my blog, just as soon as I know about it. So please check the blog if you're not sure.

I don't want anyone taking chances, it's not worth it.

January Classes

Happy New Year to all of my favorite stampers!!! Yes, that means YOU :)

My elbows are doing a lot better since I started wearing the braces during my creative 'down' times. Too bad the doctor didn't suggest that in the beginning. I had my Physical Therapy assessment last week and I'm SO looking forward to getting back in there this coming week to actually start PT.

I've been working on little stuff this week, like adding sample cards to the 'for sale' box. There are some cute ones in there, I don't think they'll last long!

I'm not really sure what's going on with this weather, but I'm going to go ahead and schedule all of my January classes and then we'll just deal with things as they come. Sound good?
