Customer Reward Program

I’m excited to introduce a new Customer Reward program to thank all of my loyal customers. Starting today, you will earn a point for every $50 you spend (before shipping/tax) at my Stampin’ Up! online store. When you have collected 10 points, you can choose a FREE stamp set or Framelit/Thinlit Collection (up to a $28.00 value).

Here’s how it works:

  • You’ll earn one point for every $50 in Stampin’ Up! product that you order (before tax and shipping). Separate orders may not be combined. For example, an order of $49.25 would not receive a point. An order of $101.00, would receive 2 points.
  • All orders must be placed with me, either in person or online.  Look for my name in the upper right hand corner of the shopping page.
  • I will track your points for you. When you reach ten points I’ll contact you and let you know how to redeem your gift.
  • Clearance Rack items can be included in your order
  • Please do not check the box on the online ordering page that says NO CONTACT. If you do, I will have no way of knowing that you’ve placed an order.
  • This program becomes effective on June 18, 2015. Terms and conditions are subject to change.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!

Ideas for Summer

I saw this last night and thought it was too cute not to share!

Sara Douglass, the Stampin’ Up! Interim CEO,  was recently featured on a local Utah morning show called Good Things Utah! She showed viewers how to take just six Stampin’ Up! products to create an entire look and feel for summer parties and get-togethers. You can watch the video here!

Below are some simple instructions on how you can create these summertime projects.

Sara_TV_BBQ_place_setting-40

Water Bottle—Encircle a water bottle with a 2″-wide strip of Farmers Market Designer Series Paper (item # 138448).

Utensil Holder—Make a 2″ cut on either side of a Kraft Tag a Bag Gift Bags (item # 138315) and fold the flap down. Adhere a 2″-wide strip of Farmers Market Designers Series Paper to the front.

Cookie Holder—Take a 9″ x 9″ piece of Farmers Market Designer Series Paper and fold it in half; then take one corner and fold it straight across. Repeat this with the other corner. To complete the project, take the top flap and fold one piece down to create an open pocket (see the video link above).

The products used in these fun and simple projects were:

Cottage Greetings

Another product I ordered and am anxiously waiting its arrival is the Cottage Greetings Card Kit as well as the coordinating stamp set, Cottage Greetings. I love that Stampin’ Up! is releasing videos that make it possible to see exactly what you’ll receive with a product as well as what to do with it once it arrives!  Enjoy the video below!

Thinking of You Butterfly

Thinking of You Butterfly

I’ve certainly been on a butterfly kick. Making them in any color you want can be addicting AND fun!

Using sponge daubers, I swirled color onto my Whisper White cardstock using  Melon Mambo and Daffodil Delight.  I wasn’t deliberately making circles and was surprised with what I created!

Melon Mambo & Daffodil Delight

Once the paper dried, I cut out a butterfly using the Butterflies Thinlits.  I LOVE how the butterfly turned out!  Imagine all the possible beautiful color combinations!  When using this die, I recommend adding a piece of waxed paper between the paper and the thinlit.  This helps all the tiny pieces come out.  Sometimes I also run the “sandwich” through my Big Shot twice just to be sure that it is completely cut out.

I hope you’ll give this a try and if you do, I’d love to see what you’ve created!

The new 2015-2016 Stampin’ Up! catalog is now live! Click HERE to look inside!

2015-2016 Stampin' Up! Catalog

What’s really fun about today is that not only can you order from this new catalog but the Occasions and 2014-2015 Annual catalog as well.  You can order from all three catalogs today but starting tomorrow, you’ll only be able to order from the brand new catalog.

The project that I have for you today has lots of new products but my sentiment is from the Occasions catalog (So You #137165) which means that today is the last day to order it!

Bohemian Gift Bag

I’ve made this cute bag from the brand new Bohemian Designer Series Paper and the Gift Bag Punch Board.  I tied it up with the yummy new Dotted Lace Trim in Delightful Dijon (one of the new In Colors).  It comes in all of the five new In Colors.  It is absolutely beautiful in person!

As you can see in the Product List below, the punch board also makes holes (this part is optional) in the bag so you can close it up.  I had a hard time keeping the bag closed while I made my bow with the lace trim so I just used a clip.  It made it so much easier!

Hello Sunshine Revisited

I posted this card yesterday but haven’t had a chance until now to give you the details about it so thought I would just start a new post.  The flowers come from the set Butterfly Basics in the Occasions catalog. I am happy to say that it will carry over and be in the new catalog.  It has been a very popular stamp set!

Hello Sunshine

I stamped the flower in Memento Ink  onto Whisper White cardstock.  Unfortunately Stampin’ Up! no longer carries colored pencils so I used my Prismacolor set to color in the petals and leaves.  I find it so relaxing to color.  I thought about using my blender pen to soften the colors a bit but I did this while at my mom’s and didn’t have one with me.  My sentiment comes from the set So You, also in the Occasions catalog, but sadly it will not be carrying over.  I wish I had started using this set when it first came out!

I used Blackberry Bliss cardstock, which I felt complimented the purple used for the flowers. I popped up the top layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  All in all, it’s a fairly quick and easy card to make!

Thank you for stopping by today!  As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!

Hello Sunshine and Weekly Deals

Thanks so much to everyone who inquired about my mom.  She is doing great.  She was hospitalized for just a few days but is doing very well now.  I couldn’t be happier!!

I have a quick post today.  Here’s a card I worked on while I was with my mom.  I will add more details about my card later today!

Hello Sunshine

The Weekly Deals are here!  I am so excited that the Painted Blooms DSP is on sale!  I purchased two packs last week (darn it, I missed out on the sale) but I think I will get a few more.  I love this paper and am sad that it won’t be available soon!  All of the Weekly Deals are while supplies last or until Monday, May 30th.

Just Because Butterflies

I wasn’t sure that I would have a post for today.  I’ve been staying with my mom for the past week as she hasn’t been feeling well. Unfortunately she was hospitalized yesterday afternoon but we are hoping that she will be back home in a few days.  She is right where she should be and I know she’s getting excellent care.  I’ll be spending the day at the hospital but before I go, I wanted to post a card that I made a week ago.  You’ll notice that it’s very similar to the card I posted on Monday.  This time though, my background for the butterflies was made using watercolor paper, my Stampin’ Up! ink pads and an Aqua Painter (you can see the background below).

Just Because  Butterflies

I did my watercoloring a few months ago and its been sitting on my desk all this time.  I just haven’t known what to do with it until the idea for this card popped into my head (which I actually made before the one I posted Monday).  When I adhered the butterflies, I used my 2 Way Glue pen.  On the Mother’s Day card I posted on Monday (you can see it HERE), I used Stampin’ Dimensionals and I prefer having them popped up rather than completely flat in that area.  Does that make sense?

I hope to have a post on Saturday, but we’ll see how things are progressing with my mom.  Thank you for stopping by today.
