December Hostess Code

Ok, I'm trying something new. Each month I'll post a Hostess Code. So when you're shopping, first make sure you have me as your demonstrator, second use the Hostess Code to be eligible to win that month's hostess benefits. You don't have to wait for your order, simply place your order and you will get right away. At the end of the month I will pick one of the orders to receive the hostess benefits! It'll be like having a party without having to do any of the work of cleaning, inviting or anything! So for the month of December use this code GJXHUHR3.  Here is a screen shot to make sure you have me has your demo (upper left corner) and where to put the hostess code (lower left corner).

Have a wonderful holiday season and enjoy all there is and Happy Stamping!

Weekly Deals

Well it seems ages since I posted. I've been fighting a cold since before Thanksgiving and finally feeling better. So much has happened this past week! I'm at the alpaca farm on the weekends and this week, first just trying to recuperate and then getting prepared for the Stampin' Up! catalog kickoff last night. What a blast that was. My uplink Tina, asked me to be one of her helpers! That was so much fun. I can't wait to share that with you! I'm going to be broke! So many new things and several new kits! Now I'm preparing for our INK holiday gathering tomorrow! I have to finish my gift, I'll post when I get that done as well as make a dish to bring. I'm making "Death by Chocolate". I love making desserts and haven't made this dish since I tried it years ago, but it was sooo good I had to have the recipe. I don't get out much, nor have to many events to make these kinds of things, so looking forward to having some again.

So now here are the weekly deals! If you are interested in any just click on them and it will take you to my store. Also, if you are shopping, make sure you use this month's hostess code to be eligible for hostess benefits. Here is the code: GJXHUHR3. Contact me if you need help placing your order.

Alpaca Shop

Well it was a COLD day yesterday! Laddie and Major were though very happy in this weather. Everybody loved the store and commented on the selection of items. I think socks were the big winner of the day, but teddy bears were hot on their toes! Ha, ha! A friend of Joy and Colin brought over some of her items as well. One of them was a ball of vine with alpaca fiber in it. You could make a bowl or basket of them, but they are for the birds! What a cute idea! When you hang them up outside the birds will use the fiber to make their nests. That will be one nice and cozy home! I will have to get a picture and post.

If you don't have plans today, it will be much warmer, stop by and visit the alpacas and pick up a gift for you or someone special. We even have snacks available!

I'll be back to stamping tomorrow, with more specials! For now,

Happy Stamping,

Alpaca Gift Shop Grand Opening!

Ok, this has nothing to do with stamping, but this is another endeavor of mine. I met these wonderful people while I was still working for Coldwater Creek. The company was already going out of business and selling everything, including all fixtures and Joy and Colin Scott came into the store to shop and see what bargains they could get, not realizing EVERYTHING was on sale. So the long and short of it was they were in the process of setting up a gift shop at their alpaca farm. They bought pretty much everything they needed to set up their store from Coldwater Creek! I loved the decor they store had. It made you feel you were going over to a friends house and picking out of their closet! So Joy and Colin have me helping them out with getting their store up and running! How much fun is that!

This is the new gift shop

We will be having a Grand Opening this weekend, November 22-23, from 10am-4pm. If you would like to get something special and unique, this is a wonderful place to pick it up. The name of the farm is Highland Airs Alpaca Ranch I've been updating their website and getting everything ready for the big event. If you're going to be around the northern New Jersey area, you'll be delighted you stopped by. In addition to the gift shop, they'll have a couple of their alpacas available for the public to get to know. They are a very gentle animal and easy to care for. If you don't know anything about alpacas, their fiber is similar to sheep's wool, however it's hypoallergenic, so it won't give you that itch you might get from wool. It's also, lighter and warmer then wool. Alpacas have been around for thousands of years and were initially imported from Peru in 1987 and have been growing in popularity ever since. Here are some of the alpacas from their herd. Oh, no pets please!

We'll have a variety of items for sale, from the luxurious to the inexpensive.  Here are a few items available.

This is a beautiful and ever so soft and warm ladies coat made out of alpaca fiber. Next we have some men's argyle socks, again made from alpaca fiber. We do have a variety of socks to choose from. These socks will keep your feet warm all winter!

 Who wouldn't love to wear this cardigan, it's reversible. Charcoal grey and turquoise and so soft and warm.

















Who could resist these adorable teddy bears. They come in a variety of sizes and colors and made from alpaca fibers. This is a gift that will last for years to come!

Eventually I'll even have some hand stamped alpaca cards! So I hope to see you this weekend!

Happy Stamping!
