Stampin' Up! Online Spectacular

Dates: November 22-30, 2010
Details: During this one week only, you can get incredible discounts--up to 50 percent--saving big on your favorite products, as well as qualifying for FREE SHIPPING with online orders of $150 or more. You can still get a discount on the products when ordering through me by placing a workshop order but you cannot qualify for free shipping this way...so the best idea would be to combine orders with your friends and family to get at least $150 in orders to get the free shipping (a 10% savings on top of the already FABULOUS prices).

Discounted product information is listed on this PDF. If you want to see pictures of all the items on sale visit http://stampinup.com/ and click on store then online spectacular.

Christmas Card Workshop Reminder

Can you believe the holidays are upon us already? I'm excited to share the cards you can order for the Christmas Card Workshop! I've priced the cards so that it is economical for you to make enough for everyone on your list. However, they do not include envelopes. If you'd like to include envelopes so you can stamp them to coordinate at the workshop add an additional $2.00 for each set of 10 cards. Each card is priced out for a quantity of 10. On most of the cards the greetings are interchangable to suit your style.

Fee: Varies depending on the card(s) you choose

Dates/Times: Wednesday, December 1st from 6-10 pm, or Saturday, December 4th from 9:30 am- 1:30 pm

I must have all orders in to me by Monday, November 22nd to ensure you get the card design(s) and quantities that you want. I will accept orders until Monday, November 29th but cards will only be available based upon supplies I have on hand so call or e-mail to place your order today! All cards must be prepaid. I accept cash, check, or paypal (sent to chubby_bunnies@yahoo.com. Include $2 extra to help cover fees).

*If you can't make it to one of the classes but really want the projects I charge a fee to cut and punch your projects then I'll get you pictures and instructions so you can assemble them. You will need to use one of your stamp sets or purchase the stamp set used to stamp your projects.

Car Seat Cover

I'm sure you've all seen these but I just had to share the one I made. It's nothing super fancy or anything. I found the monkey fabric at Joann's. They had 32" left so that is what I got, and I got the same amount of a light brown fleece. 32" will work but you could use 34" wide by 44" long as well. Then you'll need 5" of another fabric for the straps unless you want it the same as the top fabric, then get 5" more.

1. I sewed around the fabrics 3/4" in with the fabric's inside out. I left about a 5-6" opening to turn the fabrics around then I pressed them flat.
2. Hand stich the opening closed.
3. Then sew around the entire piece again using a 5/8" seam allowance.
4. Cut 2 pieces out of the solid brown cotton fabric that are 7 3/4" x 5".
5. Fold them in half and sew the bottom and side together using a 1/4" seam allowance.
6. Flip the the straps inside out and fold the open part into inself then press.
7. Sew around the whole strap (like you did the main piece) using about 1/8" seam allowance.
8. Lay out the main piece and center the straps. I measured mine and put the midde of my straps 5" away from the center of the whole piece.
9. Pin them on and sew them using a 1" rectangle. I reinforced all of the corners by backstitching so that they won't come undone.
10. Sew some velcro onto the straps and you're done. I used Scotch Fasteners. It is 2x thiner than velcro and doesn't stick to everything like velcro does but stays fastened. You could also add buttons, bows or whatever else you can think of to the top of the straps to embellish it more.

Total time: about 1 1/2 hours.

Sorry the pics aren't that great. I finished it right before I had to pick up Kazia from school and it was raining/snowing so it is a bit wet.
