Christmas Wish List Service 2010

This message will stay at the top till 21 December.
Please scroll down for new posts.

Evening all,

Hope you're having a good week so far. I've been busy making Christmas cards and I've done a little bit of Christmas shopping too, so I am feeling good :) I know we're only in October, but you can never be too early in preparations for Christmas. So, with this in mind, I thought I'd let you know that I am starting up my Wish List Service for those of you who are being asked by loved ones and friends what you'd like for Christmas already!

All you have to do is fill in my Wish List Form and mail it back to me which I will safely store for you. Then give your family/friends my contact details when they ask you what you would like for Christmas. They can contact me and between us, we can select what Stampin' Up! goodies to purchase off your Wish List according to their budget and can organise to have the goodies delivered either direct to their door or have them sent here for collection. How easy is that? What a happy bunny you'll be knowing that you'll get some craft goodies you've been wishing for instead of the usual slippers, cds and smellies!

For a copy of the Wish List Form or more information, please email me on alexhau@rocketmail.com.

Please Note:
All Wish List orders must reach me asap to ensure delivery in time for Christmas.

Alternatively, if a Gift Voucher is more your thing, I can arrange to have these in any denomination for your family/friends to purchase from me. These have no expiry date and can be used at any time. For your Gift Voucher to be received in time for Christmas, please let me know asap so that it catches the last First Class Christmas posting - Tuesday 21 December 2010.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Bye for now,

Alex
