Super Size Stamp Camp! Registration now open

Stampin' Up's Sale-A Bration starts January 4th, and we're celebrating by hosting an online stamp camp to showcase EVERY SINGLE ONE of the free reward choices for the year on January 14th, 2023!

That's right, all nine Sale-A-Bration exclusives plus the hostess-only stamp set will each have a chance to shine during six hour-long live stamping sessions with Lyssa, Penni and Kristine. We'll be highlighting each new Sale-A-Bration product individually along with any coordinating items from the main or mini catalog! Plan your snacks in advance because this is going to be a FULL day!

Since you'll receive a fabulous PDF document before we begin, you can prep in advance if you'd like to stamp along, or just watch and take notes on things to try later. Because the sessions are live, you can ask questions and get answers right away! Or, watch later at your convenience. The videos will be available for one complete month afterwards!

Then, during the evening hours there's also a bonus challenge stamping hour with all our presenters, and an extra special VIP session with Lyssa for everyone who places an order before, during or after the camp date using the stamp camp code. How cool is that???

Did I mention that included in your camp fee is a big box of goodies!?! That's right! We love mailing you a package of sunshine! Including a generous sampler of ALL FOUR Sale-A-Bration paper packs, there is new spring bling and some exclusive handmade gifts (and of course, chocolate!) inside.

You'll also have the chance to win free Sale-A-Bration prizes, including the hostess exclusive Scenic Garden stamp set, a month's free subscription to My Layout Library, a free printable set of Cheat Sheets Collections 1-24, and more! We always go a little overboard on the door prizes--you'll have a one in four chance of winning during one of Song of My Heart's Stamp Camps!

Oh my goodness, I'm excited all over again for this event! Please register by sending $39 to www.paypal.me/songofmyheart with the notation "super size stamp camp". Make SURE your PayPal email matches your preferred email and that your shipping address is up to date!

Send your questions to Lyssa@songofmyheartstampers.com.

Looking forward to a fabulous day of creating together after the busy holidays!

Lyssa's pop-up Pity Party!

As many of you have heard by now, I took a spectacular fall off a ladder on Saturday morning at the studio. I was hurriedly hanging up a banner outside for the start of our holiday pop-up shop, and missed a rung. i wound up flat on my back on the sidewalk with my head in the parking space.

So far we have one broken elbow, one broken wrist discovered two days later, and one bunged-up knee, with more xrays and possible surgery to come. OUCH! And you oughtta see the bruise on my backside, lol!!!

The good news is, of course, I did not hit my head, there were lots of helpers around, and there was no car in that parking space! And I'm thankful for friends and family that have brought over food, picked up groceries and taken me to appointments.

But I'm not going to lie--this sucks. It HURTS. And I'm bored!

So I sit on my couch with my ice packs and my guinea pigs (they love my sling. They think Mommy now carries a permanent piggie house with her at all times!) and consume platters of Christmas cookies all by myself (not as much fun as it sounds!).

Since I can't stamp, lift, drive, unpack boxes, or even type, there is nothing going on in the studio for December and probably part or all of January. Yes, this is me being whiny!

Stay healthy, take care, and avoid ladders, friends! Thanks for your forbearance as I muddle through the next few weeks.

NEW SITE COMING SOON!! Big news from Song of My Heart

After experiencing prolonged outtages and service issues with my website provider, I've decided to move! I am sorry to leave Typepad as I've enjoyed and recommended their services since 2008.

There have just been too many days when I couldn't upload any photos, or save any changes, and too many times when friends have not been able to get the site to load. I can no longer wait and hope they fix their ongoing server problems, when my sites are my income and main source of information and education for my customer friends.

So... I'm a little overwhelmed, but here we go!

Please bear with me in this season of "construction" as we move sites and everything is up in the air for a bit. I'm excited about a fresh start and maybe some better organization and updated categories. Looking forward to sharing the new site when it is live!

As always, the BEST and most up to date source of information from Song of My Heart is always the newsletter. It's free, it's only once a week, and you can subscribe here.

Thanks for your patience and understanding!

Cute & Quick Christmas Stamp Camp reg is open!

Kristine and Penni and I had so much fun at our first-ever all-day Song of My Heart stamp camp, we're doing it again! But to squeeze one in before the three of us busy moms combust with Christmas duties, we're making it a half-day event! Check out the details and plan to join us for our very BEST PROJECTS for a Cute (but Quick!) Christmas project weekend!

But the MOST EXCITING news????

We're giving one lucky participant a FREE Mini Cut & Emboss Machine!!! During our final session we'll draw a name and one of you will be getting a fabulous present for Christmas this year!

Woot woot!! I'm excited already!!Here's the deets:

Date: Saturday, November 26th, 2022 (Thanksgiving weekend!)

Time: 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Central (4 stamping sessions and an optional live stamping challenge hour)

Where: live sessions in a private Facebook group, recorded to rewatch or catch up as desired.

Swag: sweet padded envelope full of CHRISTMAS goodies to use on your own projects!

Register By: November 21st. After that date, you can participate but no swag will be sent.

Cost: $21 per person, payable here: www.paypal.me/songofmyheart

This is not a kit-based class. Use your own stamps, inks and cardstock to create with us! Supplies list will post by 11/21 so you can plan ahead and pre-cut your pieces if planning to stamp along.

To whet your appetite, here's a holiday project from our last camp! This card uses VERY limited supplies and looks amazing! Here's what you'll need to make it. The only measurement you need to know is that you'll need twelve 1.5 x 1 inch pieces of Tahitian Tide glimmer paper. Easy and glam!

Click any link to shop with Lyssa!

Add All to Cart

Hope to see you for lots more QUICK (but super cute) Christmas projects with me and my stampin' BFF's Kristine and Penni. Carve a little space out of Thanksgiving weekend (or the week after, if you can't make it live!) and plan to play with us!
