Today’s the day!!! You can now order from the Stampin’ Up! January-June 2021 Mini Catalog! If you haven’t yet received your catalog, you can look through it by clicking HERE or click the image of the catalog below. A new catalog is always fun and exciting but it’s also time to Sale-a-Brate! Sale-a-Bration is that time of year when you earn free gifts with every $50 purchase you make (before shipping/tax). Click on the Sale-a-Bration brochure below to look through the catalog or click here!

The Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine is now available! Just like the name implies, it’s a mini version of the regular Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine! It’s small enough to sit right next to you as you craft (it’s downright adorable)!
My current Card Sampler was created using one of the FREE Sale-a-Bration gifts you can earn with your order, Flower & Field Designer Series Paper. Place a minimum $50 order using the host code 2TGDWVB4 and I’ll send my Card Sampler to you. For all the details, please click here!
It wouldn’t be Sale-a-Bration without a Starter Kit special! The Starter Kit is always a great deal. It’s $99 and you’ll receive $125 in Stampin’ Up! product that you choose, plus it ships free! During Sale-a-Bration, when you purchase the Starter Kit, you’ll ALSO receive FIVE** packages of 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. That’s a $57.50 value for 200 sheets of paper! After purchasing the Starter Kit, you’ll be able to shop and enjoy at least a 20% discount on your personal purchases. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me! For more information about the Starter Kit, click here! To purchase the Starter Kit today, click here!
** The printed Sale-a-Bration brochure contains a mistake on the Join page. It incorrectly states that you ‘ll receive six package of paper. The correct amount is five.
Edited to Add: Basic White products are now available!

It’s Friday Tutorial day but first, I’d like to give an update on our new catalogs. If you’ve placed a Stampin’ Up! order with me within the last six months, I ordered a Mini Catalog & Sale-a-Bration brochure for you at the end of November. On December 9th, Stampin’ Up! shipped all the catalogs. With the unprecedented amount of mail going through the USPS system, many of your catalogs haven’t arrived yet and for that, I’m truly sorry but please know they are on the way to you!!!
Stampin’ Up! policy does not allow me to post the link to the online version of the catalogs until they have released the catalog online to the public, which will be January 5, 2021, no later than 3:00 am Mountain Time, which is also when you can start ordering from the catalogs. In my blog post on the 5th, I will include the links for you and if you still haven’t received your catalogs, you’ll have full access to them online. Fingers crossed they arrive tomorrow or Monday!
Today I’m sharing a tutorial for a card that contains several products available on Tuesday, January 5, 2021.
The new products are:
- Sweet Strawberry stamp set* (#154394) – available in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog
- Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper (#157613)- available as a FREE Sale-a-Bration gift with a $100 order (also includes the Berry Blessings stamp set)
The Sweet Strawberry Bundle (#156214) includes the Sweet Strawberry stamp set & the Strawberry Builder Punch.
You can access your free tutorial below the Supply List.

Sale-a-Bration – January 5th – February 28, 2021
Sale-a-Bration is coming!! It’s such a fun time of year because you can earn free product! In the past, Sale-a-Bration lasted for three months but this year there will be two Sale-a-Bration events! The first one will take place from January to February and the second will be in July and August.
Choose a FREE Sale-a-Bration product with every $50 or $100 you spend (before tax and shipping). For instance, if you place a $50 order, you’ll be able to choose one of the $50 products. If you spend $100, you can choose a $100 product or TWO $50 products. There’s no limit to how many items you can earn!

Happy New Year!!
On this first day of 2021, I want to say thank you for being here. This past year is one we won’t soon forget. It brought many challenges to everyone and heartache to so many. But there were also moments to cherish.
In April, I shared that my mother-in-law had passed away. I was floored by the number of emails and comments I received showing nothing but kindness and understanding from so many of you. You have no idea how much that meant to me.
In this past year, I’ve received so many nice comments about the cards I share. I read every single comment & email and am always so touched. I feel that I’ve made so many new friends this past year through my blog and that is a definite good thing to come out of 2020.
Thank you so much! I wish you nothing but happiness, joy, and good health in 2021!
P.S. I will be back later today with my Friday Tutorial.
by Tracy | Dec 30, 2020 | Die-Cutting, Embossing Folders
Are you ready for another sneak peek of the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog that debuts on January 5, 2021? There are 27 new dies in the catalog (yes, 27!!!) and today I’m sharing a card I made with the brand new Flowering Vine Dies (#154332) and the new stamp set, Oval Occasions (#154477).
I started with a piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock and then added a layer of Whisper White cardstock. Before adhering it to the card front, I placed it inside the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I also ran a piece of Highland Heather cardstock through my die-cutting machine using one of three large flowery dies in the Flowering Vine Dies set. Using my Multipurpose Glue, I added glue on the larger parts of the die cut piece and then adhered it to the front of the card (you could also use one of our adhesive sheets but I found the glue easier).
The sentiment was stamped onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock using Gorgeous Grape ink and the stamp set Oval Occasions (debuting on the 5th). I cut it out using the Classic Label Punch. I added Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back before adhering it to the flowering vine design. To complete the card, I added small pearls to the flowers.
You can purchase the Flowering Vine Dies beginning on January 5th. It can also be purchased in the Vine Design Bundle (#156266) and includes the stamp set, Vine Design.
Supply List
If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your demonstrator! You can place an order by clicking any of the images below to go to my Stampin’ Up! online store. If you have questions about products you’re considering purchasing or ones you’ve already purchased, I’m just an email away (click the Email Me button on the sidebar of my blog).
Measurements
- Gorgeous Grape cardstock: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ score at 4-1/4″
- ** Whisper White cardstock: (2) 5-1/4″ x 4″
- ** Whisper White cardstock: scrap for sentiment
- Highland Heather cardstock: approximately 3-1/2″ x 3-1/2″
** Unfortunately, Whisper White cardstock is no longer available. If you haven’t heard, the mill that produces our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. This news is sad in so many ways.
Stampin’ Up! didn’t have much notice before receiving this news but they have worked on a new replacement for all Whisper White products which will be called Basic White. In the last few days, Whisper White cardstock and Whisper White envelopes have sold out and Basic White products are not yet in stock. No information has been released as to when we’ll be able to order these new products but I’ll keep you informed as I learn more.
