OMG we are getting close

And I am still NOT freaking out..........but I am sure that I will be eventually.

However, it all seems to be falling into place and I am keeping my cool.

I am going to post the raffles that I have now so far. PLEASE feel free to share them with all that you know. NEED NOT be present to win and u can PRESELL tickets for friends etc. All I need is their cc #,, address and exp. date OR a check made out to NMSS and cash works too. LOL.
You will need their phone number to put on the tickets so we can call them when they win :)

Here ya go: I am updating this list daily so I will post it again before we leave next week: As always, email with any questions u might have.

You do NOT want to miss you, so check out the samples and class descriptions and email me asap so that I can tell them how many students they will have.

Disappointing News

Sadly, our Traveling Vineyard person has had to cancel and will not be able to attend this year :(

So, I am very sorry to say that the wine tasting has been cancelled unless I can find someone else in the next week.

LAST CALL

for MS Crop 4 Hope shirts. PLEASE email me with your order asap. I need to get them ordered this week so we have them in time.

Honestly, if you are on the fence about these, you DO want to order one and will be "kicking" yourself if you miss out.

Remember, t shirts are $15 each and available in woman's tee size small thru 2XL
sports gray, black or lite pink
Black and Ash gray are available in men's sizes up to 5XL

All new this year are baseball jersey's in woman's sizes with 3/4 sleeves
Gray with black sleeves OR what appears to be very popular, black with HOT pink sleeves
The jersey's are just $20 each and available in size Small thru 2XL.

A portion of the cost of the shirts will be donated back to the NMSS so remember you will not only be sporting the coolest of the pirate logos, but you will be helping the cause.

Weds. Oct. 22nd by 9pm is your last chance.

Food

In an attempt to satisfy everyone's dietary needs/requests, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE lmk via an email ASAP if you do not eat meat.

I want everyone to be happy and have full tummies all weekend and I need to order food this week.

Thanks,
Jackie

Another Class

OMG you will NOT believe how gorgeous the class from KNK is going to be. I need to figure out how to post the picture, give me a minute and email me asap to sign up.

Here is a brief description from Gerri-anne.

Class Cost: $35.00

Create a beautiful Chipboard and acrylic album using K & Company’s Lotus Collection and Tinkering Ink’s Peek-a-boo album.

Wine Tasting Party

Hi all,
Just wanted to clarify a bit about the wine tasting we are going to be having with The Traveling Vineyard.
This is a "home party" type wine tasting.
There is NO cost involved in attending this but please come and understand that it is intended to be a wine "ordering" party as well. Our vendor will be sharing with us some fabulous wines and their product line............
What a fabulous way to purchase holiday gifts for the hard to buy people on your list.....you can send them a bottle of wine, purchase the wine of the month club for them(or yourself) or simply a gift certificate that they can use for their own choices.

REMEMBER each and every vendor participating in the MS Crop 4 Hope this year will be donating a portion of their sales back to the NMSS and you will be helping our great cause with everything you buy this weekend.

So, with that said, PLEASE email me if you plan to attend the wine tasting and remember, you can attend and here all about it even if you don't "partake".
Jackie

who is up for a contest???????

it is getting down to the wire, although, i am NOT stressed. I am actually in QUITE a good mood and feeling awfully generous right now.

So, with that said, the FIRST person who emails me their order for a new t-shirt (or another added to their exsisting order, will win $5 off their order.

Ready, set, GO.

Another class

Being taught by CM Unit Leader, Carol Cooper

DIGITAL CLASS - 30 minutes
Love your Digital Camera and want to get the most out of those photos?
Using My Pictures to store them and have lots of lots of detailed folder names?
How long does it take you to find the pictures you're looking for on your computer?
Would you like to make an OK photo a GREAT photo with just a couple 'clicks' of the mouse?
Did you know that if your photos are stored only on your computer, you are almost certain to loose them one day?
Would you like to make an album once and give it to many as a gift? (think heritage, family reunions, anniversary parties, your own recipe book)
How about using your favorite photos to make your own invitations, cards, TY notes ... in less than 5 minutes?
Did you know you can buy digital paper and stickers and use it over and over and over again? You never use it up!
These are just a few of the things you'll learn in this class. There is NO CHARGE for this class. Please register so we know how many to accommodate.

Correction

Just wanted to let you know that I oops-ed on a couple of things and wanted to keep everyone up to date correctly.

Baseball Jersey's are WOMEN'S sizes, NOT mens.
3-5XL are men's in the t-shirts and available in ASH, which is gray but not the same as ladies and black. There is NO lite pink in men's shirt sizes........3-5XL.

Sorry for my mistakes. There is a WHOLE lot on my plate right now and I am overloaded.
Trying desperately to keep it all together.

T-shirt Info

SOrry to those of you who have emailed me asking about the shirts. I JUST finalized the details today so I didn't want to give anyone false information. I spent more than an hour at the t-shirt place this morning and I am just this minute getting home 12 hours later.

So, here is the info..........spread the word to anyone I might not have a correct email addy for please, AND you need not attend to purchase a shirt if you know a scrapper who might want one.

There will be several options for shirts this year once again.
Women's size Gildan t-shirts. Size S-2XL available.
Color choices are: light pink, gray or black t-shirts. All with the same logo
Men's size Gildan t-shirts: Sizes M-5XL in the same color choices: light pink, gray or black
The t-shirts will be $15 with a portion of the proceeds going to the MS Society.

In addition, I am offering 3/4 length sleeve baseball jerseys.
Color choices are gray shirt/black sleeves OR black shirt with hot pink sleeves. These come in S-2XL and are men's sizes.
The cost for these will be $20 each.

I MUST place all orders with my t-shirt company on October 22nd so you MUST get me your order AND payment PRIOR to that date or you may not get a shirt in your color choice or size.
I will order some xtras, but it is hard to guess what everyone will want/like/need. Know what I mean???????

Several of you paid for a shirt with your registration and I have that accounted for, but I WILL need to know which color choice you would like to make. If you paid and none of these appeal to you, lmk. If you paid for a tee and would prefer a jersey, you may let me know that as well and u can simply pay the difference.

The logo is adorable and can be viewed on the blog. I will also try to attach it here.
Any questions, just lmk.
Thanks,
Jackie

Samples

I MUST share with everyone this site. PLEASE bookmark it because you WILL want to go back and look at it Nov. 10th. ( feel free to peek now if you'd like :)

Trust me,
Jackie
