It's here! The New Stampin'Up Catalog is here. I am soooo excited!! I must say, it is the best catalog ever. I am not just saying that either. I really wasn't looking forward to this one. I liked the last one but was just kind of getting used to it and liking some things I wasn't all that keen about in the beginning. So just wasn't looking forward to this one. But, the very first time I looked through it I said to my husband, Ohh are you in trouble. I just love this catalog. And Everytime I go through it I find more things I just have to have. I have catalogs available. If you need a catalog, please contact me. I will sell you a catalog for $5.00 and you will receive a $5.00 off coupon that you may redeem with your first $30.00 order. So,essentially your catalog is free. My regular customers receive their catalog's free.
One of my favorite sets for this catalog is our new "Buzzin' By" Here is a sample from that set


I am going to make every effort to update my blog a few times a week and share samples for all of you. Please leave your thoughts on the samples I share. Share if there are other things you'd like to see that I'm not showing. All comments are more than welcome!!!
By the way, I keep promising to post my upcoming classes. This has been a process that has been slow in happening. My husband and I are in the process of moving my stamping area again, as I just don't have enough room. I am hoping to have that done by February. Please don't give up on me - Classes are coming!
Happy Stampin' and Enjoy the new catalog. It will be available today at 2pm EST.

Hi Everyone,

I hope that everyone's New Year is starting off well. I have several things I want to share with all of you. First - please check either my Stampin Up site or the company site as we have several things I don't want any of you to miss.

The Retired Accessory list was announced yesterday. But they added something new - An Inventory Blowout Sale! There are items that have been retired, will retire as well as current items for as much as 50% off. Please check these out as there are some great deals.
This sale ends on January 18th and retiring items are only while supplies last. If you want something, please contact me ASAP or order on line...which you can access from my blog.

The second thing I want to share with you is some monogramed note card sets I've been making. I love these. They are fast, easy and either elegant or whimsical if you want. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed making them.





I also made this matching box

For these sets I used Riding Hood Red, Baja Breeze, Whisper White and Ski Slope DSP for the Red & Blue Set. For the second set I used Kiwi Kiss, Riding Hood Red, Whisper White and Bella Rose DSP. Both sets are made with Lovely Letters Stamp Set, Scallop Punch, 1 3/4 Circle Punch and 1 1/2 circle punch. I had the best time making these. I gave them both as gifts and they were really well received. Martie Shea was the inspiration for these. Thanks Martie. If anyone would like the patterns, email me and I'll be happy to share them. I will be sharing more very soon.
Happy Stampin!
