Beautiful You Workshop by Mail

Hello stampers!

I have an update from Stampin' Up! on the inventory issues I first reported a couple of days ago.  The Mini Egg Cartons (142776) that are currently on backorder will go to "Non-Orderable" at noon on February 1.  However - and this is good news - Stampin' Up! is having the replenishment order sent to them by air freight and is expected to arrive by March 27, 2017, which is prior to Easter.  So, don't scrap all those projects quite yet!

Since this is Birthday Week, and it's time to share the details of my next Workshop by Mail, so today I'm sharing a card that is not only a birthday card, but it also uses the Beautiful You stamp set for this month's workshop!

First up, here's my card:



And now the details for this month's workshop by mail!  The workshop will include all the materials and instructions to complete 5 cards and a project.  I am so excited by this one!  The cards and project will all feature the Beautiful You stamp set.

It's Birthday Week

Hi everyone!

This week I am featuring birthday cards all week.  To start the week off, I will share the remaining swaps I recently received.  While technically a couple of them aren't birthday cards, they could be easily changed up to meet the need.

Before we get started, I want to update you on a couple of out of stock items and their due date for stock to be replenished:

#142776  Mini Egg Cartons  4/17/2017
#142752  Love Note Framelits  2/27/2017

If you were planning projects using either of these products, and you don't already have them, please check to see if they are back in stock, or plan a different project.

Now, on to the cards for today!

Valentine's Day Packaging

Hi everyone!

I have something a little different to share with you today.  After the January Paper Pumpkin kit arrived recently with those adorable Valentine treat holders, I started thinking about other ways package treats for Valentine's Day.



Here's a closer look:

gift tag

window box

embossed plastic box - I got this idea on Pinterest, and I wrote down the name of the creator.  But, I cleaned my desk - and yep, I have no idea what happened to my note.  But what a great idea!
Run the Clear Tiny Treat Box through the Big Shot with an embossing folder.  Great affect!
Note:  When embossing with a pattern that has a direction, be sure to emboss the lid separately do the pattern flows in the right direction.
