While Stampin’ Up! demonstrators start ordering select items from the 2017 Annual Catalog today (there’s hardly anything more exciting than that!), customers can order items from the Eastern Palace Suite starting TODAY! There are two bundles – a Starter Bundle and a Premier Bundle. While they are both AMAZING, you really, really want the Premier Bundle (this is the one that includes that must-have Thinlits).
Today’s card features the Eastern Beauty photopolymer stamp set, the Eastern Medallions Thinlits Dies and Thick Very Vanilla Cardstock (all from the Eastern Palace Premier Bundle) and a couple of other items that will be available in the upcoming 2017 Annual Catalog:
Tips, Tricks and Reminders
- Eastern Palace Suites. The items in the Eastern Palace Suites (available in these bundles through May 31) are so versatile! How beautiful is this die-cut medallion?! It’s made up of three dies from the Eastern Medallions Thinlits Dies that perfectly cut into the paper without leaving an indention. The focal point of this card is made up of three dies that I ran through together – all at once. Sure, there was a little clean-up that had to take place after the dies were removed, but what an effect! Here are the two bundles that are currently available (you can click on the pictures below to see the items in my online store):
- Color Theory Suite. Two items featured on this card are from the upcoming Color Theory Suite – the AMAZING papers from the Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stack and the Glitter Enamel Dots (now, that’s a glitter product I can get behind!). Stampin’ Up! has released a wonderful video that showcases all of the times in this bundle (including these two products). These products need to be on your list:
- Monochromatic Appeal. While I’m a huge fan of combining colors, this card only features two – Dapper Denim and Very Vanilla. I would normally feel the need to add an additional color (and could have used a different color of ink or base or enamel dot), but I kept this one simple. The various gradients of Dapper Denim give enough color to the card and provide a great backdrop for these delicate dies.
Stamp Sets: Eastern Beauty Papers: Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stack, Thick Very Vanilla, Dapper Denim Inks: Dapper Denim Accessories: Eastern Medallion Thinlits Dies, Glitter Enamel Dots, Precision Base Place, Die Brush, Stampin’ Dimensionals
The options for the items in these bundles are endless! I’m so glad Stampin’ Up! is offering these new bundles early – and I hope you’ll take advantage of the early release. If your order is over $150, I hope you’ll use all of the Host Rewards you’ve earned. Otherwise, I’d love for you to add your order to the current Hostess Code (TF2V6MNU).
Thanks for stopping by today!

Retiring List. Stampin’ Up!’s retiring list was announced this past week – you can see all the items that will soon go away here:
IN WITH THE OLD & IN WITH THE NEW. In conjunction with the Retiring List, I’m excited to share my very own promotion from now until the middle of May. When you spend at least $50 with me and add your order to the current Hostess Code (TF2V6MNU), I’ll happily send you:
- A printed copy of the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog (I send them to all of my current customers) AND
- A Free Product from the Upcoming Annual Catalog. I’ll send you an incredible, new accessory from the upcoming catalog when it’s released in June. While I can’t yet tell you what it is, I’ll tell you it’s valued at $5, and you’ll love it!
If your order is over $150, I hope you’ll use all of the Host Rewards you’ve earned. Otherwise, I’d love for you to add your order to the current Hostess Code (TF2V6MNU).
Only your cards are making me want to buy this suite! Lovely, clean which is how I roll! Not sure if I want to thank you or curse you as there are so many delightful things in the new catty!
Great card, Brian. I love the monochromatic color scheme today. Blue is my favorite color and with this crisp design and sentiment, it makes a lovely card.
Ohhh, how I love this card! And that glitter enamel dot is the perfect addition!
Stunning in its elegant simplicity. You rock!
Simply elegant!
Pretty ! So classy ! I like the Color Theory video and the point made that the colors can be used seasonally . That`s cool !!
Yummy look layered over the shaded DSP!
Right back at ya with that sentiment Brian!
