Stampin' Up! News

Cling Stamps

One tidbit of big news is Stampin’ Up! announced the release of the Cling Stamps. The cling stamp will start  on Jan. 3. They will be in the 2019 Occasions Catalog and Sale-a- Bration flyer. So, in short, the wood stamps and clear mount stamp will not be available in the new catalog. Yes, we’ll still have the Photopolymer but no more wood except for the big background stamps.  We won't have any of the clear mount stamps either.  The wood and clear mount will be replaced with the Cling. All sets in the annual catalog will remain the same until we get the 2019 Annual Catalogs in June.  

If you are interested to see how wonderful the cling mount work, I will have my new sets in December -- I cannot order until December 5th.  We complained about the stamps not clinging to our clear blocks--Stampin' Up! listened.  You are going to LOVE them!  It's amazing how well they cling--they are super clingy, they will NOT fall off the block or stamparatus.  Here's a video from Stampin' Up! about the development of the stamps.  

One of the most important things to remember about caring for your cling stamps is to NEVER, EVER use Stazon CLEANER on your CLING stamps.  We will have to see what Stampin' Up! comes out with to clean them after using Stazon, so more news to come!!

New stamp sets 

Here a few sneak peek of some of the stamp sets that will be in the Occasions and Sale-a-Bration catalogs -- all starting January 2019. 

Lovely Lattice - Sale-A-Bration

Classic Garage

New Bundles

More New Bundles

And there are many more -- check out my Pinterest Board, 2019 Occasions/Sale A Bration Catalog Sneak Peeks

Rectangle Stitched Framelits Die 

This is one of the die sets that got me so excited. It is a set of 13,  WOW!  Thirteen sizes plus each is stitched. Can you wait till Jan. 3 to get them?  

If not join my team now and you can order them starting Dec. 5th. Yes, as a demonstrator, we get a month in advance to order most products. A great reason to join the Stampin’Up! family and my team. 

As if you needed a little more incentive to join my team -- remember this:

Well, you can preorder this as a Demonstrator OR select as one of your items for your Stampin' Up! Kit.  This is only available as long as supplies last for signing up to join our Stampin' Up! family.

Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions!

Coming in January!

Even though I didn't make it to Stampin' Up!s 30th Birthday party, I can and will share a lot of new things with you.  Be sure to add this to your Christmas List!  Save any Christmas gift cards and money you get for these and many other wonderful items.  

Today, I'm showcasing one of the new bags you can get starting in December (5th!).  This is nice if you go to crops or meet with your friends to stamp!

I won't have the details until Nov 12th, and hope to be able to preorder this bag so you can see it in December.  

Remember that you can always join the Stampin’ Up! family and for $129, you can pick $175 worth of product AND get this tote! Sounds like a win, win. 

I've also created a Pinterest Board, 2019 Occasions Sneak Peek, so you can see some of the new product coming for Sale-A-Bration as well as the new catalog!  Be sure to check back as I'm updating each day as I can.

Happy Crafting,

Paper Scraps?

Inspiration for this card is from Tammy B., a fellow demonstrator.  Julie came to play and this came across her phone and said, "Let's do this!"  So I gathered scraps of card stock (you know, the ones you save for a special project?) while Julie picked out punches. 

I will tell you that not all the punches we used are current, but that is the beauty of this project . . . use what you have!  We also used vellum pieces from past Paper Pumpkin kits.

Here are our cards:

We had so much fun!

If you want to come in and play, just call or email me to set up a time!

Stampin' Up! On Stage!

For those of you who follow me, you know that Stampin' Up! has a convention, usually twice a year.  I was fortunate to be able to go to the one in April held in Fort Worth, TX, with fellow demonstrator, Rogene C.  It was fun, exciting, and invigorating.

Well, the BIG birthday party for Stampin' Up! is being held in Orlando, FL, and because it is during Veteran's week in Branson, I'm unable to attend.  Another fellow demonstrator, Maurica R., has volunteered to take my swaps to Orlando and swap for me!

So here are some snapshots of my swap in progress. I'm so in love with my Stamparatus!!

I pulled my husband in to help and Julie E., one of my downlines, also volunteered to help me finish up.  Well, they are all done and ready for Maurica to pick up!  

I couldn't make 20 -- had to make 50!  Some demonstrators make hundreds, so 50's not bad, right?

Happy Crafting,

Product information update (note from Stampin' Up!)

Product information update (note from Stampin' Up!)

Holiday Catalog Items No Longer Available in North America:

#147816: Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper-
#147890: Festive Farmhouse Elements
#147811: Santa’s Workshop Enamel Elements

Sales for these products have exceeded our forecast. The numbers for these items have been shut off, since these products cannot be sent from the manufacturer in time for the holidays, these item numbers will not be reactivated.

In order to provide you with another holiday-themed option, we’ve decided to make our promotional Dashing Along Designer Series Paper available for sale- #149903= $11.00.
This beautiful, 12" x 12" traditional Christmas paper has a festive, eclectic feel and is perfect for layering. Coordinating colors are Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green, and Whisper White.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause your customers.

Mini Milk Cartons

Another great gift item that you can make with your paper trimmer, designer series papers, and cardstock is the Mini Milk Carton.  

What can you place inside these?  Well, for one thing, you can put the K-Cups inside these cute little boxes.  I put Hershey Kisses or Nuggets inside mine when selling them in my shop.  

This is also another way to use up those scraps of designer series papers that are laying around!  Here are some close-ups of the milk cartons.

Be sure to stop in at the Branson Mill Craft Village to check out the variety of gift boxes on hand.  And I also have kits for these cute little boxes!
