Here are the 25 stamp sets and the 25% off prices (in red)! W=Wood mounted and C=Clear Mount

But wait, there’s MORE!
Kids (and Grandmas) LOVE the Sweet Pressed Cookie Stamps: Fun for cookies or playdough, and they fit perfectly in a Christmas Stocking (hint, hint)
Annndddd…don’t forget there will be a Thursday special (one day only) so the best day to shop this week will be Thursday 🙂 Put it on your calendar, set an alarm on your phone, stick a post-it to your computer with your wish list, tie a string on your finger to remind you! 
(Just in case you missed it, the $25 starter kit special has also been extended for a few more hours…until 11:59 MST tonight, October 22…
there is always room for more friends in my Stampin’ Family)

$25 or 25%?

Leave a comment
Today, you may teeter between two decisions….

The choice is yours: 
Join my Stampin’ Up! Family for just $25 (ends TODAY, October 21, 2013)
~OR~
Choose from 25 different stamp sets at 25% off (starts TOMORROW, October 22, 2013)

Ideally, you could choose BOTH ~ Join today and get an additional 20% off the discounted stamp sets as a demonstrator tomorrow 🙂
Whichever way you tip, it’s guaranteed fun for the ride!
10/22/13: GOOD NEWS UPDATE! If you couldn’t make up your mind, you’ve been given a few more hours to mull it over…try Stampin’ Up! for $25 through October 22, 11:59 p.m. (MST)

Employees, Envelopes, Autumn & Miracles

Leave a comment

When there is a holiday at the beginning of the month, I seem to start off slower than usual! It was a lovely Labor Day, and it got me thinking about workers that often go unthanked…so here’s a shout out to a few of the people who keep things running smoothly so my life is easier: To those who work in Utilities (including waste management, keeping us clean) THANK YOU! People who keep my lights and internet working, WAHOO! And those unsung heroes that plant, weed and harvest so I can eat, YOU ROCK! Seriously, my life would suck without you (hmmm..that could make a great song…)

On to September Stampin’ New & Noteworthy!

Envelope Punch Board

And here is the “Best Of” Autumn stamp set available now:

Butterfly Bundle

You may have heard that our beloved CEO and co-founder of Stampin’ Up! Shelli Gardner was in an accident last week. I am so grateful that it wasn’t worse and that she is on the road to recovery! Her husband has “hacked” into her blog and you can follow the story HERE (starting on August 31, 2013)
It always amazes me how small miracles add up and reveal the arm of the Lord in our lives. As a whole SU! community, we are appreciative that her life has been spared and pray for her speedy healing.

A Shapely Birthday

8 Comments

I’ve needed to make birthday cards for my Stampin’ Family, and the sketch over at Create with Connie & Mary inspired me to make this simple, shapely and cheerful greeting (with a little embossed bling on the birthday)!

Don’t be afraid to take a sketch and turn it on it’s side, like I did with this one:

Card Recipe (all supplies from Stampin’ Up!):

Stamps: Blue Ribbon (wood~131964 or clear~125981)
Ink: Bermuda Bay (131171) and Raspberry Ripple (126859)
Paper:  Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, Very Vanilla card stock, Birthday Basics DSP(130145) 
Accessories: Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder (131930), Heat Tool (129053), Big Shot (113439), Oval Accent Bigz Clear die (127055),  Ovals Collection framelits (129381), 2-3/8″ Scallop Circle punch (118874), Occasions Paper Piercing Pack (129387), Paper Piercing Tool (126189) and Stampin’ Pierce Mat (126199).  

As always, you can order supplies HERE and don’t forget that Designer Series Paper (DSP) is Buy 3, Get 1 FREE this month and if you order on my website during July 2013, enter hostess code JF3KWJT7 because someone will be the “Mystery Hostess” and get some fun goodies this month!

I’m going to make a bunch of these cards with the other papers in the same pack and I’ll post a picture on my FB Fan Page, if you want to see samples in varying colors and designs 🙂
