Open House!

 

 Finally, the moment many of us have been waiting for......the NEW STAMPIN' UP! 2012-2013 catalogs have arrived! The new look and feel is wonderful! It's easy to follow and transitions very well from one section to the next. The photography of the projects are very inspiring and I hope you are enjoying paging through all that goodness as much as I am!

If you don't have your catalog yet, make sure to contact your local demonstrator for one. You are also welcome to contact me to get your copy.

Click on my link to the right to view the digital version of the catalogs in addition to the Stampin' Supplies .pdf (contains all supplies used for each project shown in the catalog).

To kick off the new catalog, my fellow stampers created a simple but cute make n take using the new IN-COLORS and new stamp sets (Betsy's Blossoms on the left, Bright Blossoms on the right). We made a small "gable box" which was passed on to me by one of our own, Mary B., whose husband was very kind to produce the template below.

The gable box below is the one that Mary created.

This is my version of that same box.

The major supplies used to make this project include:

• Cardstock: summer starfruit, whisper white
• Inks: summer starfuit, raspberry ripple, midnight muse, gumball green
• Stamp sets: Betsy's blossoms, Bright blossoms, tiny tags
• Punches: 1" square , 3/4" circle, postage stamp
• ribbons: linen thread 

RETIRED LISTS

Hundreds of stamps, wheels, and accessories are retiring, and this is your chance to get them before they're gone. Many retiring products are only available while supplies last, so don’t miss your chance—place your order today in my Online Store!

There seems to be a concern for those that have noticed that the current inkpads are retiring. You need not be concerned......Stampin' Up! is simply revamping their pads for better ink coverage. The core colors are staying. The only colors that will be retiring are the 2010-2012 In-Colors, but those will be replaced with some new In-Colors!

I also realize that the list is so long and overwhelming to you. Of course people can't afford to purchase everything they want before it's gone but please keep in mind that this will make room for more FABULOUSNESS! A whole year of it!
