Time for Goodbyes!

We're saying goodbye to retiring products from the 2014-2015 annual catalog, but before we do, Stampin' Up! is giving everyone an opportunity to order their favorites with discounts up to 50% off retail. 

Retiring products will only be available until June 2, or while supplies last, so you need to get them before they're gone! 

My Digital Studio will is going away too so Stampin' Up! is also including the My Digital Studio list, with all products discounted 30% off retail. 

*Note: Due to high demand for retiring stamps, we'll keep producing retiring stamps until May 26 (not accessories-accessories are only while supplies last). 

Here are some different ways to view the retired lists:

• Retired List PDF

• Retired List - Online Store

• My Digital Studio PDF

If you want to place an online order - USE HOSTESS CODE 2HMN9S7K at checkout for a $5 off coupon towards your next class with me!   Remember, online orders ship directly to your door.

Or, you can simply contact me directly and I will place your order for you!

Don't miss out on your favorites - especially any 2013-15 In Colors and DSP as those are all going away!

Happy Stamping!

Bloom with Hope

One of my favorite reasons for making a card is a friends birthday! I thought I would share one of my latest creations.  I always like to add dimension and or ribbon to most of my cards and this one was no exception.

For this card I used the Bloom with Hope set that you can purchase with hostess dollars when you hold a class and have orders totaling $150 or more.  It's a lovely set that is versatile and comes with birthday and sympathy greetings.

Cased from Annette Elliott

Card Supply List:
Stamps: Bloom with Hope (Clear mount #133952, Wood #133949)
Paper: Lost Lagoon (#133679), Hello Honey (#133678), Whisper White (#100730), Moonlight DSP Pack (#133701)
Ink: Jet Black StazOn (#101406) or Tuxedo Black Memento Ink (#132708), Lost Lagoon (#133644), Hello Honey (#133643)
Accessories: Blender Pens (#102845), Bermuda Bay Sequin Trim (#137910), Hello Honey Satin Stitched Ribbon (#133671), Circle Framelits (#130911), Polka Dot Embossing Folder (#133739), Dimensionals (#104430), Glue Dots (#103683)


To add more dimension to this card, I stamped an extra set of flowers to color with my blender pens, then cut out one flower to pop up on a dimensional.  So easy and fun!  I also took some of the sequins off the trim and added them on the page with glue dots.  For the greeting, I simply stamped the happy birthday and cut it out free hand to get the swirl effect.  This would also be a great layout for a Sympathy greeting as well.

Contact me today to schedule a stamp party, or class so you can earn this set too!

And don't forget - only two more day of FREE SHIPPING!!  Don't miss out!!

Happy Stamping!

Don't Wait!  Get The Retiring 2013-2015 In Colors Now!

The official Retired Stamps & Accessories Lists will be released in just a few weeks on April 21, but if you want anything in the retiring In Colors...DON'T WAIT! 

In Colors Will Sell Out FAST!  It's a fact that the outgoing In Colors are some of the first items to sell out—sometimes in less than an hour!  I believe this will especially be true this year because this set of In Colors is probably the most popular ones Stampin' Up! has ever had.  I highly recommend getting what you want and stocking up while they are still readily available!  

In Color Items That Will Retire—Anything that is in Baked Brown Sugar, Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding & Strawberry Slush colors will be gone, probably soon after the Retired Accessories List is published on April 21.
