Free Silver Glimmer Paper!

Do you know you can earn a pack of FREE glimmer paper during Sale-A-Bration - in addition to the other freebies you receive at increments of $50 merchandise?  I am working on a challenge set by my upline and I'm just a little short this month, need anything?  No order is too small.  I have 8 more days to go!! I'll place an order at 12pm on the 31st!

I love this monochromatic card with just a bit of sparkle :) 

Sweet Deets (all supplies Stampin' Up!):
Stamps: Secret Garden
Ink: Basic Gray
CS: Basic Gray, Whisper White, Silver Glimmer Paper
DSP:  Patterns Stack - Neutrals Collection
Accessories: 1/8" mini brad, dimensionals, big shot, honeycomb embossing folder, scallop trim punch

S-A-B is here!

Let's get this party started!  Sale-A-Bration allows you to EARN FREE STUFF.  Does it get better than that?  Nope!  If you've been around here, you know my favorites are Rich Razzleberry, Linen Thread, Early Espresso and NEW this year:  Summer Starfruit.  This uses three of the four!  The awesome DSP is from the SALE-A-Bration Sycamore Street DSP.  No price tag - you can't buy it - you can earn it free with a $50 merchandise purchase!  Let me know if you have any questions about the SAB promotion.

Another favorite of mine?  Embossing.  That sweet button is also a sale-a-bration exclusive in the Sycamore Street ribbon and button pack!

The butterfly is giant, but it looks great with just half of it.  Thanks to my upline, this butterfly is now on my wishlist :) Janet Wakeland designed this card.

Happy Shopping!
Have a great Tuesday!

Sale-A-Bration starts tomorrow!

It's the most exciting Stampin' Up! time of the year.  Sale-a-bration!  You can EARN exclusive FREE supplies for each $50 merchandise purchase.  This card shows three options:  the DSP, the ribbon and the stamp set.  If you don't have a demonstrator, I'd LOVE to send you a SAB catalog.  It's amazing. The colors are great and the artwork is what you'd expect from Stampin' Up!

This card was inspired by a swap card I received.  I HAD to recreate it.  I love cards that use scrappy DSP.  Here's a couple other scrappy DSP cards.

Thinking of hosting a party? Now is a GREAT time.  As the hostess, you're also earning MORE stuff!

I'm sorry if you like looking at the sets and things I post here, under the card.  I can't show you the catalog images until Tuesday :)

Have a great Monday!  And be sure to check back, posts will be more frequently; I have a LOT of things to show you!!

Thinking of Joining the Stampin' Up! family?

Stampin' Success is a demonstrator-only publication delivered to my mailbox every two months.  Today, I have a SNEAK PEEK inside for you.  

Like what you see? This is just a small sampling of the magazine our demonstrators receive every other month.Our bimonthly Stampin' Success magazine is filled with project ideas, business ideas, advice, and recognition for our demonstrators. If you want to see more ideas call your demonstrator and plan a party. You can gather your friends for a girls' night out. And if you want to receive the full magazine in the mail every other month I can help you join. Just ask. 

At Stampin' Up! we're all about creativity. Try us out.

Single Stamps

Today I am off to a workshop with Hostess Kim who's going to have a great afternoon with her friends, complete great cards and earn FREE product!  

You wanted more? You got more! We've had a great response so far to our experiment with single stamps. So much so that we are making ten more never-before-seen images available as single stamps available through March 31, 2013.  These are great add-on items if you need a little something to help you earn hostess or sale-a-bration rewards!

Best of 25 years!

Stampin' Up! was founded in 1988!  This year is a milestone celebration and the artists have been busy creating a once-a-month celebratory set!  

As part of our 25-year anniversary celebration, we're bringing back some of our favorite stamp images from the last quarter century and combining them into 12 sets, which will release one set per month during 2013. Even better, along with some great classic images, each "Best of" set will also include a never-before-seen image!  And lookie who was lucky enough to WIN this set!  

Some things to remember:

• All Best of stamp sets will include 3-5 images, including a never-before seen image, and will be priced at $14.95.
• While we are releasing just one Best of stamp set per month (with a new theme each month), all of the Best of sets will be available until March 31, 2014.
• I will post the new flyer each month.  To see all the flyers, click on the BEST OF 25 label below this post!
• All Best of stamp sets are available in Clear-Mount only.

While we are releasing just one Best of stamp set per month, all of the Best of sets will be available until March 31, 2014.

As a special incentive to collect the Best of stamps, starting in February we're including a collector's card and 25-year proof of purchase sticker with every Best of set. Collect six stickers, and send it in to redeem a FREE set of your choice valued up to $14.95! Free sets must be redeemed no later than April 30, 2014.

Happy anniversary!

Making a Difference, supplies to art teachers

Leadership 2013 was an amazing time.  I 100% planned on blogging from the event (and I envy those bloggers that found the time and energy to do so from Orlando!).  One of the first events was the PACKING PARTY!  While in Orlando, Stampin' Up! donated bags stuffed full of products to Orlando schools and they let US help stuff the bags.  It was so much fun to place the items in the bags and then leave a note for the recipient   Our group had so much fun we went thru line several times!!  The bags were H-E-A-V-Y (loaded with lots of goodies!).

Here's my roommate Susan.

These bags are at the end waiting to be boxed up! Each bag contained over $375 worth of supplies!

Pretty bags! 

Bags in boxes!
