It is special event time!!!

Hi all!  I have some fun stuff going on right now and I wanted to share it with you all.  I am part of a special event going on November 2nd in Gulf Breeze Florida (click here for the details)!  It is a Consultant Christmas Shopping Extravaganza!  Basically a bunch of us Consulants for different companies have come together to offer special discounts, deals, and free gifts for 11/02/2013.  There will be door prizes and demos.  It is going to be a blast!  

Can't be there... Not a probem, you will miss out of door prizes and demos however the deals will be offered online for 24 hours on 11/03/2013!

This is the door prize I have for attendees.  :)  That brand new stamp set is Magic Moments B1318 and it is retired so you can no longer buy it.  The punch is a 2" scallop punch. 

The gifts I have in store for the event include:

Anyone who makes a purchase (in any amount) from me gets 3 free holiday gift tags (this includes at the event or online 11/03/2013).

A $25 purchase you get the three holiday gift tags and a free make and take holiday card kit (to make this card).

A $50 purchase you get the three holiday gift tags, the make and take holiday card kit, and stamp of the month for $5.00. 

A $100 purchase you get the three holiday gift tags, the make and take holiday card kit, the stamp of the month for $5.00, and a free recipe box. 

If you book a party with me you get a free excusive mini stamp set (which is not available for sale) when your party closes.

Remember you don't have to be at the event to take advantage of these awesome gifts.  You can get these fun freebies by ordering from my website on 11/03/2013.  :)
