Winter 2012 Stampin’ Up! Stamping Schedule

The long awaited winter stamping schedule is here!  I’m sorry it took me so long!  As you look over the schedule, I want to mention a couple new policies I’m putting into place for the new year.

• Because this is my home, I will turn the porch light on outside my home 5-7 minutes before class begins. The light will signal that I am ready for class participants to come in.  I’m not trying to be mean, I just need to be able to feed my family and take care of last minute details.  Really early arrivals can throw things into a bit of a loop for me.
• If you are unable to attend a class you are scheduled to attend, I will hold the class supplies for you to make up at a future class listed on the schedule or the next PMS Night.  I will not hold the supplies past the PMS Night following the last posted date for the class.  I need to be able to put class supplies away when the class is over so I can prepare for future classes.
• This isn’t new but I want remind you – if it snows and there is a class scheduled at my home, I will be here, it is up to you if you want to venture out in the snow or wait for another date listed on the schedule, I will be flexible.  If the class is away from my home, I will be in contact with you if we need to reschedule.  (I’ll warn you, I don’t like driving in snow so please make sure I have your cell phone on record.)

Let’s get to those fun classes we have coming up!!
