More Photopolymer Stamps!

show-tell

Stampin’ Up is releasing two more photopolymer stamp sets.  Show & Tell 1 (#133450) and Show & Tell 2 (#133481).  They were both inspired by fashion and by chevron, arrow, and geometric shape trends that coordinate with one another beautifully.

show-tell-art

These sets are so trendy and will be so fun with which to build images.

To go with these fun sets, the downloadable PDF, Seeing the Possibilities Online Class (#134532), stages 15 projects using both of the Show & Tell Stamp Sets. The online class features a collection of enjoyable ideas showcasing topics such as backgrounds, building, layering, versatility, gift-giving, and memory keeping inspiration! You can also bundle (#134533) this class with both of the Show & Tell Stamp Sets and save 15 percent! How fun is that?

You can always order these items from my on-line store.  Enjoy your Thursday!  Thanks for stopping by!

A Color Refresh & Free Shipping Offer

Stampin’ Up! made an exciting announcement this morning that it is making some changes to its color lineup in the next couple of months.  In order to stay up to date with color trends, they will be retiring some colors and adding new colors (or old retired favorites).  Here’s a chart with the new color lineup:

Color Refresh copy

Beginning on April 4, 2013, all retiring/discontinued color products (i.e. ink, paper, ribbon, accessories, etc.) will be available only while supplies last.  So you’d better stock up now on any of the retiring colors which you will miss.  The new colors will be available on May 31, when the new catalog goes live.

Additionally, Stampin’ Up! announced this morning that they are offering FREE shipping on ALL orders (April 6-8) There are no minimums or limits!  So start planning your order now.

Have a great Thursday!  Thanks for stopping by!

I noticed that this week the blog counter on my blog hit 100,000 views.  Wow!  I started blogging at the end of July last year, and I am still amazed to see how global the stamping community is.  I’ve had visitors from countries of which I’ve never even heard.  I’ve also been amazed by how many of you leave kind and encouraging comments and messages, and subscribe to this blog.  It really means a lot to me, and I am thankful for each comment as I know that takes precious time to do.  So, as a thanks from me to you, I’d love to share some blog candy with you.

blog candy

The blog candy includes the Moving Forward stamp set (wood mount), Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Gumball Green 3/8″ Satin Stitched Ribbon, and Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons.  Unfortunately, I can only offer this to those in the U.S.

To be entered in the drawing for the blog candy, please leave a comment at the end of the post and let me know what kinds of things you’d like to see on this blog.  I’ll draw the winner on the evening of Monday, February 4th.  You will need to check back on Tuesday when I’ll share the name of the lucky random winner, who will then need to email me his/her mailing address.

Have a great Saturday!  Thanks for stopping by!
