Hostess Club

What it is:
 A Hostess Club is a group of people who get together once a month to make layouts and/or cards.  Each person agrees to make a minimum purchase to meet or exceed the minimum for a Gathering ($150), in order to earn Hostess Credits.

 How it works:
  We meet once a month, usually on a friday evening (but negotiable).  We can meet at my or the Hostess's residence.  Either way the Hostess is responsible for providing snacks and beverages for the evening.  The projects are determined in conjunction with the Hostess.  We make 1 or 2 projects, either layouts (1 or 2) or cards (3-5), or some combination thereof. After the creative session, during snacks and beverages, each lady will place an order of a set minimum amount, such that the total meets or exceeds $150.  The Hostess receives the Awards from the collective purchases.  If a member knows ahead of time that they cannot make it, they need to place an order before the day of the Club Gathering.  If a member has to cancel at the last minute, then a minimum purchase will be made on their behalf from their Wish List, using their credit card.  Members can bring friends to the Club Gathering but please give me some notice so I can have a comparable project kit put together for them.

Perks of belonging to my Club:
  Each lady will receive the current Idea Book, free of charge (usually $6.50).  Each lady will receive a free Duos sampler (a 6x6 sample of all new pattered papers), a free cardstock sampler of all current CTMH cardstock colors, and a free Exclusive mini stamp set.  In addition to all of these perks, my club members will also be 'in the know' by receiving early notification of all Sales, Constant Campaigns and Specials.  As well, members will be able to attend my Classes and Workshops for a discounted price.
