Still working through the emails from end of September and early October. I’ve made it through the additional class registrations done through the google form.
I’m starting the transition of moving away from my email address chrismbertram@msn.com and going to christine@cardsbychrisb.com. Please use christine@cardsbychrisb.com for all stamping related correspondence. You no longer need to copy cbcenroll@gmail.com or Karissa on any emails. The new registration form has been working great and I’m having issues with emails bouncing back from the msn email address. It’s time for the transition. Please update your email address when you have a moment.
The Traditions of Christmas pdf tutorial was emailed out on 10/23 in the morning and added to the Inspiration Hive.
The October LJS pdf tutorial was emailed out and added to the Inspiration Hive on 10/18 around 5 pm.
