DECEMBER 2011 CLASSES

DECEMBER  CLASSES

This is a short month for classes.  There is so much going on with Christmas shopping and such.  These classes will be perfect for December as all but one can make a fabulous gift for someone or decoration for your home.  There is even a gift tag class and you know that's a big help this time of year....  so without further ado, here is the line-up!

MIRACLE of CHRISTMAS
Tuesday, November 29


This precious 5x7 canvas is being taught by guest artist, Linda Clancy.  Linda brought this canvas by a couple of weeks ago and wanted to know if we thought it would make a good class.  Well, we did and so here it is.....  It is a front and back goodie featuring stamps from Stampendous and Printworks.  At the top of this canvas (not shown in picture) is a tiny star secured by a teeny wire...... 

12  CHRISTMAS GIFT TAGS
Tuesday, Dec 6 & Tuesday, Dec 13th


This class couldn't be more timely.....  Lisa had a great time using all kinds of dies and stamps.  You will have so much fun with this class knowing that these tiny treasures will be so useful.

CHRISTMAS  DISPLAY  BOX
Thursday, Dec 8 & Friday Dec 9


You may notice a pattern developing here..... there are 12 windows in this sweet atc display box.  You will use a variety of papers and supplies to create this unique art tray.  Perfect for decorating your home or as a last minute hostess gift.

12  DAYS  OF  CHRISTMAS
Thursday, Dec 15 & Friday, Dec 16


Completing the theme of 12's we have this fun canvas.  Oh my gosh!  Did you notice that Lisa used the front of the canvas this time?  This 8x10 canvas uses a stamp set from Stampington that is themed for the 12 days of Christmas.  You will also use papers from Echo Park, and glitter paper as well as the new FranTage glass glitter from Stampendous to spark this sweet canvas.  Also good for your home or that of someone special!

HERO  PREVIEW  PARTY
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 17
10AM TO 4PM



We have presented this event every year since Hero started offering it and it has been a very popular event here at My Heart's Fancy.  We are so excited to bring it to you once again.  We have seen just a teensy bit of what is to come and I'm sure you will be pleased.  Every year we get a sampling of the new 2012 stamps and catalogs for you to purchase.  You will get 20% off all in-stock preview Hero merchandise and 20% off all prepaid special orders.  If you spend $50 or more you can purchase a catalog for 1/2 price.  A purchase of $100 or more will earn you a FREE catalog!  Put this event on your calendar and come join the fun!

That's it for now..... Until next post..... Happy Stampin'!

Demo Day and Thanksgiving schedule

DEMO  DAY

By the time you read this Demo Day will probably already be in full swing.  As you may remember you may make the fabulous Christmas Organizer when you make a donation of $5 or more to the Red Andrews Christmas Dinner.  Lisa will have a wonderful class schedule for the early part of December.  It should be an all around fun day for all.

We have a lot of new products in the shop right now.  Along with the usual fare of Christmas images and papers we have been adding a lot of new art supplies suitable for mixed media projects.

THANKSGIVING  WEEK  HOURS
We will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday next week (Nov 22 & 23rd)  in order to spend some much needed time with family.

HOWEVER..... 
WE WILL BE OPEN THANKSGIVING DAY
FROM 4 PM TIL 8 PM
for your shopping convenience!

This would be a great time to purchase gift certificates for some special friends or come by to fill out a wish list for Santa.  In any case, I look forward to seeing you over the Black Friday weekend. 

That's it for now..... Until next post..... Happy Stampin'!

Coming Up Next!

DEMO  DAY
MAKE-IT-TAKE-IT
FOR A CAUSE

If you have lived in Oklahoma City for any amount of time you have heard of the RED ANDREWS CHRISTMAS DINNER.  Every year the McCord family puts on a Christmas dinner for needy families.  They feed between 5 & 7,000 people.  Santa is there to hand out toys to the kiddos.  Every family leaves with a gift box of food from Feed the Children.  It is a special time of blessing for those who serve and those who receive.  This year we feel led to help out financially.  My Heart's Fancy is donating all the supplies to make the beautiful Christmas Organizer pictured here. 


For a donation of $5 or more you can make one.  All proceeds will go to the Red Andrews Christmas Dinner organization.  Let's show Oklahoma City we care!


Christmas Postcard Swap

We have just enough time to sponsor a Christmas Art Swap.  We have decided to do postcards.  The Valentine postcards were very popular and we were thinking you might enjoy using your swaps for last minute Christmas cards or as Thank You notes after Christmas.  In any event, be sure you pick up a swap packet on Demo Day.  Swaps are due back on December 10th which gives us enough time to photo, swap and return on........

December 17th
HERO PREVIEW PARTY

As most of you know....  the Hero Preview Catalog Party is a tradition for us in December.  Mark your calendar for this very special event.  More details to follow at a later date.....

CHRISTMAS  WISH  LISTS

This year we are going to keep a Christmas Wish List Registry for you.  You can fill one out on Demo Day or any day after that.  Family or friends can stop by any time and check out your list.  And if you've put something really expensive on your list (like a Vagabond!) gift certificates (always available) can be purchased to help you get the coveted item!  

That's it for now.....  Until next post..... Happy Stampin'!

Suzanne Carillo

Suzanne Carillo Stamps
We recently discovered a "new" (for us) artist that Art Gone Wild has licensed - Suzanne Carillo.  Lisa used one of her stamp sets in the Blue Christmas class.  Suzanne has a fun unique style that we like very much.  In addition to the sets shown below we also have some of her wood mounted stamps.


We are very excited to be offering these stamps and sets.  Take a look at Tammy Tutterow's blog post using Suzanne's stamps here. 

Tim Holtz Winter Distress Pads

Our order of Winter Distress Pads came in and we have a few that are not on reserve.  If you didn't reserve a set and want one, there are still some left.  There is a limit of one set per customer until November 15th.  If there are any left, we will open it up to those who want a second set.  Please call me if you want a second set and I will put you on the "second set" list.

That's it for now..... Until next post..... Happy Stampin'!
