Today I have a card I made using the Simple cards cartridge. This cartridge is a lot of fun and helps you to produce very cute cards quickly! I know I like instant gratification. How about you?

Just see if you can round up orders from friends and then you can be the hostess. If you have interested friends, but need catalogs for them, let me know. I will give everyone in your 'party' a free catalog. This is a good chance to get a bunch of free stuff, so don't miss this opportunity!
March specials!
Hostesses earn more rewards in March because when a

next Hostess Rewards and Hostess Rewards Plus! levels. Now that’s a
reason to jump for joy!
*Shipping/handling and tax applies. Only Gatherings
with a total of $250 or more will qualify for the jump in Hostess
