More Big News
Our ink pads are getting a new look which is why all of our current ink pads are on the retirement list! With the new design comes an improved foam pad! The new pads will give even better coverage! Edited to Add: The foam pad hasn’t changed in design but defoamer has been added to the ink ingredients. Stamped images will have a smoother, solid look.
Bundle Prices
All of the bundle prices in the Occasions and Annual Catalogs will go away on May 31st. Some of the products in the bundles are not retiring but the bundle prices are. So if there are any current bundles you have been thinking about, be sure to get them now and save 10%.
All products on the retiring lists, except stamp sets, are while supplies last! Once they’re gone, they’re gone!! Stamp sets can be ordered up to May 25th and then will be while supplies last. If you have any questions, please let me know!

This past weekend I was in Las Vegas attending OnStage, a Stampin’ Up!, one day event. My husband and I arrived a day early before I headed to the convention early Saturday morning. Stampin’ Up! really knows how to put on a good show and it was so much fun meeting new people, seeing upcoming new products and getting my hands on the new catalog (months before it’s released to the public)! If this sounds fun, considering joining Stampin’ Up! The Starter Kit is $99 and you can choose $125 in product. Once you join, you’ll enjoy all the perks that I enjoy and you’ll start out with a 20% discount on everything you purchase! You’ll even be able to preorder new products, a month before the catalog goes live.
It’s Stampin’ Up!s 30th Anniversary this year so they’re celebrating in a big way. My friend, Rita, and I took a picture together to remember the fun we had. Look at the delicious cupcakes we were treated to in the afternoon with a 30th anniversary white chocolate decoration on top! (more…)

It’s time for the Glitter Queens Blog Hop and today it’s all about birthdays! I hope you’ll hop around and visit everyone’s blog!
My birthday card is very similar to one I posted on Monday but this one has a little twist – inside there’s an envelope for a gift card! I have to credit Caro Van Der Straaten from the Netherlands for this cute idea to put an envelope inside the card using the Envelope Punch Board.
The video below will show how easy it is to create this type of card. When I showed the card to my husband, his first comment was that it looked hard to make but it really isn’t, honest!! I used Picture Perfect Party 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Berry Burst, Whisper White & Basic Black cardstock as well as Berry Burst Crinkled Seam Binding ribbon. For the version below, I used the same products but switched out the Berry Burst for Bermuda Bay and added Bermuda Bay Stitched Satin Ribbon. The sentiment is from the stamp set Picture Perfect Birthday. (more…)

Every year Stampin’ Up! releases five new colors called In Colors. The In Color collection lasts for two years and then all five colors retire. The 2016-2018 In Colors (Dapper Denim, Emerald Envy, Peekaboo Peach, Flirty Flamingo and Sweet Sugarplum) will be retiring at the end of May. 
If history repeats itself, and I’m sure it will, most of the products in these colors will be gone very soon!! Early next week, the Last Chance List will be published and everything retiring from the Annual & Occasions catalogs will be listed and the In Colors products are always while supplies last. Ink refills for the stamp pads are always the first to go and in some years, they’ve been gone in a matter of days. Yes, hard to believe, but days!
If you love any of these colors, I highly recommend purchasing what you want today! If you already have the ink pads, be sure to stock up on the ink refills. Once in a blue moon, some retiring In Colors make it back into one of the regular collections, but it isn’t often. Speaking of blue moons, did you know we had one last week? A blue moon is a second full moon in a calendar month. My husband loves this stuff which is the only reason I know this trivia fact!
Listed below are the 2016-2018 In Color Products. Click on any of the images and you’ll head over to my Stampin’ Up! online store.
Please come back tomorrow for the Glitter Queens Blog Hop! Have a great day!
