You could get the matching stamp pads that go with all the paper on your list.

Wish I was closer, I'd come to your party. Everything sounds yummy!

Hope it's a smashing success.

Here is a litle tip from a friend: Whenever you have a home sales party, serve alcohol. People will be in a happy mood and will be likely to buy more. I always offer Rum Punch and people really like to drink it.

I hope no one finds this tip offensive, I find it works for me. I just searched the internet till I found a punch recipe that i thought would be good. I don't have the one I used handy or I would have posted it for you.

If I'm not mistaken, Chelsey is underage, so no alcohol at her party....

I would suggest just getting the sets you love, paper (already on you list) and any accessories you REALLY like

This made me LOL for real! For those of us over age it is a great idea - I like to stamp with a glass of wine with friends. There has to be coffee tea or wine when I stamp lol! And treats of course Last night I had gf over for stamping and made lemon yogurt cake and tea. We eat more than we stamp heh.

Make sure you get some ribbon to go with your paper. And designer paper and punchs. You can never go wrong with these.

And here are a few stamp sets that are my personal favorites:

Garden Whimsey
Merry and Bright
Baroque Motifs
Priceless

LOL! Nanaimo bars are yummy. I don't think they are just a Canadian thing. I seem to remember having them at a work party when I worked stateside.

Here is a description from M&M meats... original flavour is a custard filling, layered between a base of coconut graham cracker crumbs and cocoa, topped with chocolate icing
