I'm Back ... And With Something Brand New

from Stampin' Up!.   But first, I must apologize for the delay in posting blogs.   It's been six weeks since the total hip replacement.  The surgery was fine, but the pain meds literally knocked me out.   I am just not used to being tired ALL DAY, but that's what happened.  Combine that with trying to get everything ready for the Retreat (March 14-17 in Asheville, NC) and a few stamping clubs, I was just too tired at night to blog.  So, my apologies!  

Now, on with the new and exciting news ...

Yesterday Stampin' Up! introduced a brand new, online training program.  Of course I had to try it (late last night), and I have to tell you it got me so excited I had to run down to my room first thing this a.m. to make one of the technique cards.   Now for those of you who know me, I've been teaching techniques for years here at Sun City.   A lot of what is on the video is what I've been teaching, but I LOVE having the videos, tutorials, supply list all in one place.  Here's how it works.

You can go to my 24/7 store and click on "shop now".   You will have to enter this item #133385.   OR, you can simply click here to go right to the page.  This is to get the first on-line training course which is entitled "The Basics".  The cost is $14.95 (no shipping or taxes involved with this transaction). You simply add this to your shopping cart, check out (using your credit card) and then you will download it to your computer.   I have set up a folder in my computer entitled "On-Line Training" which I will be able to use any time I feel like getting inspired.   I played with all the information last night and this a.m., but had to stop to go make this one card using the Masking Technique.   To be honest, I have not even seen the rest of the information.   There's a lot!   It is a long download loaded with over 30 projects.   (When asked to download now, be sure to select "For Other Applications").  It's really easy!

#133385 - The Basics - $14.95

Okay, so now for the finished card.  This is one that my Divas will be making the end of March to introduce them to this awesome training series.  From what I understand, new downloads will be offered in the future!   Can't wait!  This is only one of the 30 cards/projects explained step by step on one of the videos!   It's truly awesome training!

If you are a local blog follower, I have a new six-month session of Divas starting March 20th.   I have three openings at this time.  Please contact me if you would like to join this fun group of women monthly and/or get more information.  bzstampin@live.com.

Hope to be back soon with some more exciting news from Stampin' Up!
