Ooooh only ONE WEEK LEFT!!!!

Helooooooooooooooooo, are you getting excited yet?
We are exactly one week away from the launch of our Online Classes and what a response!! We have been overwhelmed by your support and we cannot wait to start!!! Of course there is still time to join us and if you are still pondering here s a few more facts to help you decide.
WHAT DO I GET FOR MY MONEY?
For just £15.00 you will have access to more than 10 inspirational classes in PDF format, ready for you to print or download to your computer, ten varied projects with clear step by step instructions, photographs as well as videos for some of them.
WOULD I HAVE TO BE AVAILABLE AT A CERTAIN TIME DURING THE DAY IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE?
Definitely NO, you can recreate the classes in your own time, or you could just download them and keep them for later when you know you will have the time to complete them. This is a self paced experience, YOU choose the WHEN!!! all the projects will be accessible on the site until the end of May and a reminder will be sent out before we close the access to make sure you don't miss saving all the classes/projects.

WHAT WILL I NEED TO TAKE THE CLASS?

All you will need is card, a paper trimmer, adhesive and stamps. We have chosen a selections of exciting new products from the newly released Mini catalogue, that we will feature in most of our classes but you can definitely recreate the same projects with whatever products you might already have. However should you wish to order some of those products contact us at stampwithus@ymail.com to place an order. To view our Firm Favourites list click here.

We will also provide you with a inspirational gallery to showcase and share your examples, we will have scheduled live chats with prizes to be WON and a few surprises along the way as well, is going to be a fun and exciting experience that you are sure to enjoy. To buy our online class just click on the Paypal button on the side of the blog.

And as a thank you to all those supporting our wonderful blog here's a FREE BONUS project that you can download and enjoy straight away. Is a cute gift box made from one sheet of card stock. ENJOY!!! The Stamp With Us team xxx

Wow!

Well the first challenge finishes at midnight on Saturday and we are simply overwhelmed with the response that we have had, so we thought that you all deserved some recognition and reward for your hard work :) ......

Every week the SWU team will pick 5 favorites of the week and they will all get the chance to display our new "Stamp With Us Fave Five" blinkie, if they wish. Then, we will select by a random number generator, a challenge entrant who will receive a FREE entry into our May on-line class!


We realise that as we do more and more challenges, the information about the on-line class and retreat will slip down into blog space, so we have now added a menu bar at the top of this blog (under the header) for you to click if you need any further information in the future.

We have had lots of interest in the on-line class and retreat and will be posting further information over the coming weeks - we don't want to share all the surprises at once - but I can guarantee you that you will love all of it and it is all fantastic value for money!.

Could we just request that if you have a specific question about anything that you email us at stampwithus@ymail.com where we can give you a personal reply - it gets difficult to answer questions in the comment sections but we are more than happy to do so.

So, not much longer till the first challenge runs out.

Be sure to visit us again on Sunday to see our Fave Five from the first challenges and find out if YOU have won a free place on the on-line class! Don't forget the second challenge will also be launched on Sunday too!

Thanks again
