Online Exclusives !

Good News!  Stampin' Up! has just launched a new line of products that are available only online.  Our Online Exclusives are never before seen products that you won't find in any catalog.  These will be released every month for you to browse and enjoy.  They will spark your creativity and expand your crafting collection and you can shop at your convenience.  As part of our new product release strategy, Online Exclusives will better utilize digital resources, allowing us to respond more quickly to relevant trends and the needs of our customers.  

Starting now, you can see all the items that have been added for March.  Click on my SHOP button on the lower right side, or the SHOP ONLINE link above. Be sure to see all 3 pages so you don't miss a thing.  Also note, that some items may be offered in other languages, not just English, so be sure to review carefully. And the other exciting part? There is NO END DATE for the sales period.  Some products will be reordered when inventory is low, and others will only be available while supplies last.  This way, we can offer even more new products throughout the year.

BONUS!  If you place an order in March and USE MY HOST CODE (in red on the right), you will receive a FREE GIFT from me, and I will enter you into my drawing for a FREE stamp set of your choice! 

Thank you for your support. If you don't already have a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, I would love to be yours.  

Enjoy your day! 😊

Now, I'm sure you probably have questions, and I have the answers.  Here's some you may have:

• Do I have to do classes as a demonstrator?  Answer: No, absolutely not. You can join as a hobby demonstrator and just join for the 20-25% discount on products you love.
• What perks do you have for joining?  Answer: Besides getting $175 in products of your choice, you also get 2 additional options to add the Boho Blue or White Stamp & Emboss Machine. All this for either $ 99 or $ 129, depending on the option you choose.  Plus, as a demonstrator, you'll have access to new catalogs a full month before they are available to customers, and you'll get to pre-order your favorites to play with and show off. 
• Are there classes or help I can get to learn techniques?  Answer: You bet! Stampin' Up! has an entire library of techniques, ideas and information, whether you choose to do classes or not. You don't have to do workshops at all, and our term CASE (Copy and share everything) is perfectly acceptable in this craft. See an idea?  Perfect! You can CASE it, and/or add your own spin on it. There are no rules; just sharing and enjoying the fun and new friends you'll make along the way. 
• Do you have a Facebook group I can join?  Yes, Stampin' Up! has a Demonstrator only Facebook group where ideas are shared, along with photos of projects made by others. There are many other demonstrators that have their own Facebook groups, where you can visit and post comments, and even follow others' pages. 
• What about training? Stampin' Up! has many online training classes for free, including how to get customers if that's what you're looking for.  In addition, your upline (the person that you signed up under) can guide you through whatever you need to be successful.
• Is being a demonstrator fun? Oh yes! Meeting people who enjoy having fun, while creating beautiful projects, is the best! You can share what you love, while making new friends for life.

Irresistible Blooms

Happy day after the Super Bowl!  Did your team win?  Mine did!  Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs.  Boy, what a game that was.  A real nail biter for sure. 😟😟

Today I have a surprise for you.  Online only exclusives! Yes, get ready because starting March 1st, you will have exclusive ordering opportunities to a whole new world of creativity.  Read all about it below; this information comes straight from the Stampin' Up! home office.

Online Exclusives are all about the future of shopping and selling. And a great opportunity for new experiences! You won’t find these products in any catalog, which means you own fresh, never-before-seen products to spark your creativity and expand your crafting collection. All from the convenience of my online store.

As part of our new product release strategy, Online Exclusives allow you to better utilize digital resources and platforms in an ever-changing world. This new strategy also helps us respond more quickly to relevant trends. 

What does this mean for you? First, there will be no ending date on how long these products can be purchased.  In some cases, it may be "while supplies last" and we will be notified if that happens.  In most cases, when supplies run low, they will be re-ordered.  This also means that we will have more products throughout the year, for you to choose from. 

Now that you know about our new online exclusives, let me show you the first suite that is being offered:  The Irresistible Blooms Suite. As a demonstrator, I was able to pre-order this before it goes live to you on March 1st (at 1 PM Mountain time).  Take a peek at this wonderful suite of products: 

This suite of products is amazing. Beautiful fonts and florals in the stamp set, matching dies, cool embossing folders and gilded papers in gold, silver and copper.  And there's a nice surprise too! For this collection only, TWO of my favorite colors are being brought back:  Pretty Peacock and Lost Lagoon.  To say I'm excited is an understatement. The 6x6 designer series paper is stunning! 48 sheets of 4 patterns, double sided designs.  Want to see? Check out the cards I made:

The reverse side of these papers is just as pretty as the front. You get a patterned design on one side, and a soft, muted watercolor design on the other.  Here's a sampling of this beautiful pack of papers:

Are they not gorgeous?  This pack of papers is sure to make some really pretty cards, scrapbook pages and other paper crafting projects.

If you are interested in getting this suite of products before March 1st, contact me.  If you join my team, you can do so for just $ 99, and receive up to $ 175 in free product as part of your starter kit.  Then you can pre-order this suite or any portion of it, before it goes on sale to the public on March 1st.  Check it all out on my "Join" link. Feel free to also contact me with any questions.  

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope this new suite has brought a smile to your face. Happy stamping! 

Sweet Citrus Birthday

Today I'm sharing a couple of smaller 3-1/2 x 2-1/2 inch card fronts.  I am participating in a swap with some other demonstrators on Facebook.  We received guidelines from the organizer, and we signed up in groups of 5. I'm participating in two of the groups, so I had to make 8 card fronts and mail them to each participant.  Here they are:

While they are similar, the only difference is the designer series paper.  I used the Sweet Citrus stamp set (#160641) found on page 49 in the Jan-Apr Mini catalog. This set does have matching dies and an embossing folder, but I opted to only purchase the stamp set this time. The designer series paper is from the Dandy Designs pack (#160836). This paper is so pretty! You get 48 sheets; 4 each of 12 double sided designs and the colors are amazing.  This paper is available as a FREE item with a qualifying order, but ONLY through February 28, during our Sale-a-bration promotion.  My card base is Mango Melody.

That's it for today. Later in the week I'll be showing you a beautiful new suite of products that will be available next month.  Until then, enjoy the rest of your weekend.  I hope your Super Bowl team wins, as long as it's the KC Chiefs! 😄🏈🏈🏈  #GoChiefs

Beautifully Happy

Beautifully Happy (#160804) is a stamp set that you can get FREE with a qualifying order during our Sale-a-bration promotion.  This promotion ends on February 28, and is just one of many other products being offered FREE during this month.  Here's my card:

Beautifully Happy is a 2-step stamp set; this means that you have an outline stamp as well as a filler stamp to complete the look.  I stamped the main image using Memento Black Ink. Then I used the filler stamps in Balmy Blue, Soft Succulent and Pear Pizzaz inks.  The little bee was filled with Crushed Curry for the body and Pool Party for its wings. A few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#158130) add just enough sparkle.  The diagonal stripe adds interest and movement and can be found in the Country Floral Lane designer paper (#160375).  I cut the main image panel from the Deckled Rectangle Dies (#159173). Hint: To save cardstock, I cut the image panel from the white layer and since the designer paper covers it, no one will ever know. Except now.. 😊 

If this card makes you happy, then my job is complete.  We can all use more happiness in the world, so I hope today's post helps.  To see this and more items you can get FREE, you can click on the Sale-a-bration Catalog link on the right side of this page.  Take a peek at the online catalogs too and don't forget to check my Ordering Specials for February at the top of the page.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day.
