The new catalog is hours away! There are all sorts of wonderful new stamp sets, accessories and colors.  If you’d like a new catalog just give me a call or send me and email and I’ll arrange to get one to you.

Additionally, there are some hidden gems that aren’t in the new catalog but you can still order them. You can see the dormant list on my section of “handy stuff to download.”

Enjoy

I’m back.  On 24 Dec my Mom has a stroke and thank goodness she has made a remarkable recovery.  My life has changed significantly since then but I feel I’ve finally got all the various facets of my life in control to resume blogging.  So stay tuned for updates.

10% off Retiring Stamp Sets until Dec 23

 

It is that time of year when Stampin’ Up! announces the stamp sets that are retiring. It is both a sad and an exciting time. Sad because some of my favorites are always on the list and exciting too as we await the new stamp sets coming out mid January.

Big news this year is that the retiring stamp set are 10% off from Dec 9-23. So if you are thinking about getting any of them don’t delay.

Even bigger news is that all orders over $70 will get free shipping!

I know I mentioned that I’d post the retiring accessories list up on my blog and my plan was to update it daily so you could see what was still available. The list is constantly being updated and it is just too crazy to try to keep up with it. So my suggestion is that if you want an accessory from the current catalog you give me a call and I can tell you if it is available at that moment! Don’t delay as each day there is less and less to choose from.  (623)203-4489

We are going to a wedding in September and I thought I’d give a card portfolio to the bride with thank you notes.

Here is a what I made my Mom for Mother’s day. It is a mini scrapbook. Inside are pictures of my brothers and sister when we were little. I’m the oldest and over 60 so you get an idea of how old some of these photos are.

CASE from Andrea Bowden

Thought I’d share a card I made today. I CASEd it from Andrea Bowden who had it published in Cards magazine, May 08 issue. I thought it was such a clever use of the die cut blossoms and A Perfect Day Rubons I just had to do it. I’m such a hoarder of my stash of Stampin’ Up! Supplies. I think if I could make myself make two of everything at least I’d be able to send some of these out. Wonder what percentage of stampers are collectors rather than senders.

I love getting handstamped cards, so I really need to be more diligent about sending them out.
