Beautiful Ride

Hello stampers!

This week is the last week of the Weekly Deals - and there are some great deals to be had!  Check them out this week!!

From Stampin' Up:  We have sold out of the Washi Label Punch (item 138296) and will not be getting any more in stock; this item will remain not orderable. 

As we quickly approach the date for the Retiring List to be released (April 18), I want to remind you a final time - if you want any of the 2014-16 In Colors (cardstock, stamp pad, refill), order them now....they will be gone for good in no time!

Today's card is another card I made for "birthday season".  The "Beautiful Ride" set is so fun and for this card, I paired it with an images from Timeless Textures.

Fabulous Birthday

Hello stampers!

I hope you had a nice weekend!  Ours was nice, but I sure hope Mother Nature decides to let spring return soon!  This was a crazy cold weekend - at least Saturday was cold, Sunday it warmed up nicely.

Anyhow, "birthday season" has started for me, so I have to get busy making birthday cards for the next couple weeks.  Today's card is just a start!  I made a card with the pleat fold.  Have you seen these?  So easy, but so darn cute!!!

The Birthday Bouquet DSP shows off nicely on the pleated fold!  I also used 3 of my favorite stamp sets on this card - You're So Lovely and Endless Birthday Wishes.  And I used You're So Lovely and Happy Happenings on the inside.

Textured Meadow

Hello stampers!

Another week is speeding by!

This is a week of big news on many fronts!

First, some personal news.  Mid June we will be relocating to southwestern Pennsylvania.  Basically we are moving back home.  I am going to have classes at my new house, so watch this space for information about those classes if you are from that area.  We have purchased a home in Elizabeth Township.

But, before we go, I will have a couple more dates here in St Peters.

First is the rescheduled Birthday Bash card class.  That will be held on April 16.  See below for details on that one.

Second will be my annual new catalog open house.  Stop by to pick up a copy of the new catalog, see new products, enjoy some snacks, and make a card using new products.   This is a free event.  Date of the open house will be Saturday, May 21.  Stop by any time between 1 - 4 PM.

Next,  some news from Stampin' Up!



Have you taken a look at the Weekly Deals lately?  To be honest, prior to this week's current offers, they haven't been very exciting recently.  Stampin' Up! is terminating the Weekly Deals program after next week's deals. So, check them out!

Next, and this comes from a representative at Stampin' Up's Demo Support.  I called them last week with a question on a customer's order.  As we were chatting, the rep said to me, "Please remind your customers to order their 2014-16 In Color refills now.  Once the retiring list comes out, they will sell out immediately."  And she's right!  If you want ink refills from the 2014-16 In Colors, call me soon to place your order!

And finally, the previously mentioned Retiring List will be released on April 18.  I will send out a link to the retiring products as soon as I get it.  Once that list is released, when products sell out they are usually not restocked.  So check the list to see if your favorites are coming back or retiring.

Phew, this is a long post, and we're finally to today's card!  Continuing with my theme of projects using my favorite sets from the annual catalog and the occasions catalog, today's card features 2 sets from the Occasions Catalog, In the Meadow and Timeless Textures.

Supply List:

In The Meadow Clear-Mount Stamp Set
$20.00

Timeless Textures Clear-Mount Stamp Set
$20.00

Tip Top Taupe Classic Stampin' Pad

Hello stampers!

I hope you had a good weekend!  Ours was really nice!  Baseball came back on Sunday and it was a beautiful warm sunny day!  DH, the boys, and I spent Saturday working our tails off on chores around the house, but Sunday we kind of took it easy.  All in all it was a VERY good weekend!
