You aren't excited are you????
I hope your party is a hit and you sell a LOT!

You could get the matching stamp pads that go with all the paper on your list.

Wish I was closer, I'd come to your party. Everything sounds yummy!

Hope it's a smashing success.

Looks like your ladies will be rolling out of your workshop after that 'snack'. Have fun and sell lots!

Canuck girls Rock!!

Here is a litle tip from a friend: Whenever you have a home sales party, serve alcohol. People will be in a happy mood and will be likely to buy more. I always offer Rum Punch and people really like to drink it.

I hope no one finds this tip offensive, I find it works for me. I just searched the internet till I found a punch recipe that i thought would be good. I don't have the one I used handy or I would have posted it for you.

If I'm not mistaken, Chelsey is underage, so no alcohol at her party....

I would suggest just getting the sets you love, paper (already on you list) and any accessories you REALLY like :D

Wish I was closer to you! I would love to join you. The food sounds great!
I would love to eat, stamp and buy too! Have fun!

This made me LOL for real! For those of us over age it is a great idea - I like to stamp with a glass of wine with friends. There has to be coffee tea or wine when I stamp lol! And treats of course :D Last night I had gf over for stamping and made lemon yogurt cake and tea. We eat more than we stamp heh.

Ooh..party sounds like fun. But what are nanimo bars? Is it a Canadian thing?!

Make sure you get some ribbon to go with your paper. And designer paper and punchs. You can never go wrong with these.

And here are a few stamp sets that are my personal favorites:

Garden Whimsey
Merry and Bright
Baroque Motifs
Priceless

LOL! Nanaimo bars are yummy. I don't think they are just a Canadian thing. I seem to remember having them at a work party when I worked stateside.

Here is a description from M&M meats... original flavour is a custard filling, layered between a base of coconut graham cracker crumbs and cocoa, topped with chocolate icing

Don't keep us wondering girl. How was the party!?????

Recipe for the Nanaimo bars???
