This has been a roller coaster week. While demonstrators have been excited to flip through Stampin’ Up!’s 2021 Annual Catalog (and it’s AMAZING), we’re also mourning the loss of many of our favorite products. The Retiring Products List has been posted – and I’m showcasing THREE of my favorite retiring products in today’s card for the FabFriday color challenge that launches today. Can you name all three?! Here’s my card: And here’s the banner for…
It’s a fact of life that we have to let go of some things we love to make room for other things we love. No one has unlimited space. While some of you have HUGE, well-organized craft rooms (I have gasped in awe at some of them), each one has a limit before the floor gives in and punctures the Earth beneath. As we are introduced to all the new and exciting products that are…
Stampin’ Up!’ demonstrators have been given our first look at the AMAZING 2021 Annual Catalog – I’m over-the-moon about these new offerings. We can’t begin ordering from this new book yet, and I’m excited to place my first order and start sharing some of the goodies from this new book! As we make room in the new catalog and warehouse for these brand new products, some products have to go away. I’m pulling together a…
Before I share today’s post, I want to give you a heads-up about a big sale that’s kicking off today. As Stampin’ Up! rolls out the new 2021 Annual Catalog to demonstrators, the company kicks off a Last-Chance Products Sale. Between today and May 3 2021, retiring products from the 2020 Annual Catalog will be offered on a “while supplies last” basis with some great discounts. Please come back this afternoon to check out the…
This year is flying by, and Easter is just around the corner. This is the first card I’ve made for Easter 2021, and it was such a sweet card to make. Not only do I love these bunnies from Stampin’ Up!’s 2020 Annual Catalog, but I created a soft, delicate background pattern with the a stamp from Stampin’ Up!’s January – June 2021 Mini Catalog. Here’s my card: I restrained my desires to add layers…
Yesterday I shared some details about April’s Paper Pumpkin kit that centers around summer sweet treats. If you missed that post, you can see more here. If you receive Paper Pumpkin each month (but your demonstrator has since left the company or you were a demonstrator but still receive the kit), I would LOVE for you to consider adding me as your demonstrator. ♥ Because that kit coordinates with the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series…
Today I’m sharing a little bit about April’s Paper Pumpkin kit – what’s included and what to expect. I love that Stampin’ Up! has started to give us some sneak peeks at the kits (we don’t see the entire thing, but we see enough to whet our appetites). Love! Here’s a sneak peek of what we can expect in April’s Kit: Before I share a little bit more about this sweet and cool kit, I…
If you stopped by yesterday morning to see what I was sharing, you might have missed my I Miss You card with the Wrapped Bouquet Bundle. Because of some [incorrect] edits I made to the configuration of my blog, the email for my post didn’t go out until late afternoon. Way to go, Brian! If you missed that post, you can see it here. I rarely take the easy way out. Today’s project started as…
Before I share today’s project, I have two quick things to say (and if you are visiting with me, I hope you don’t mind listening): After lunch yesterday, I checked my emails and wondered why I’d received no comments on my sand dollar-filled card. None. That’s when I realized my post never went live. Oops! If you missed my “totally nautical” card, you can see it here. I want to thank Jen Mitchell on the…
I was raised by the beach. We lived off the coast of Georgia for much of my early childhood, and my parents owned a couple of seafood restaurants on nearby islands. We moved to the coast of South Carolina after that, where we lived through my teenage years. I never (not once) enjoyed the beach in the daytime during the hottest days of Summer, but I’ve always loved the peacefulness of the beach in the…
