Happy Mother's Day! (read onto the end for our special quick video.) Our newsletter readers know, but now YOU can know too! Ann is moving me to a new dog house tonight. It will take some time. I'm sure there will be lots of interesting comments made during the process. But it's all so that I can give you top quality Stampin' Up! eye candy. So stamp a little post it note for your forehead to come back on Wednesday and see how we're looking. We might have it done early, but just in case, by Wednesday, Ann should have... Continue reading

Want soemthing you can easily make for a gift? Just make a handful of these notecards for your favorite friend. It's the perfect bridal gift or even for the first time mom that will be sending lots of thank you notes for all the baby gifts she'll get. This one's made with the retiring Broadsheet Alphabet, but it looks even better with the Lovely Letters alphabet. Make it in their favorite color and it will really be a hit! Here's a shopping list so you can get them before they all go away! Broadsheet Alphabet 1-1/4" Circle Punch 1-3/8" Circle... Continue reading

Today would be a good day for Ann to clean her stamp room. Yep. I'm convinced of it because it's National Clean Your Room Day today! And we're starting by using up some of our retiring ribbon and stamps. And she'd better clean it now because starting Sunday night, I'm closing the blog for a few days so that I can get a whole new look ready for you. I'll have something special going out to Ann's newsletter readers so that they've got up to the minute news. So if you're not hooked up, get on our mailing list here.... Continue reading

Ann and I took a few minutes to peruse the new catalog. I think you're going to like it. OK. I think you're going to LOVE it. While Ann wasn't looking I sneaked a little something new onto this card that features some cool stuff that's going away in just a few weeks. Ann released a list in the newsletter yesterday of several cool things that aren't going to be in the next catalog. One thing that was listed incorrectly was the Woodgrain Embossing Folder. That IS in the new catalog. When you get yours, you'll see why we missed... Continue reading

We love to see your projects. Donna's helping with a family wedding and these are the tags that she's making. What a great way to adorn a gift bag! I thik I'll have her make some for me when I get married. She used the Hearts Collection Framelits for the folding part and the Full Heart Punch for the Glimmer Paper.

Ann and I feel that the best card is the one you have in your hand. That's why today's card went out to all our April online shoppers. My gal pal, Doodles, helped me mail the April thank you cards while Ann was away so that you'd get them right after May 1st. They're all mailed except for Sherry's which is going out now that Ann's back. Just about everything on this card is going away the end of this month: the Perfect Punches stamp set is retiring and the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder won't be in the new catalog....

With Mother's Day this week, I'll bet that you already have a nice little gift. And if it's little, we have the best little packaging. I'm going to miss the Fancy Favor Box we used in this project. It's going away this month. Even if you don't use it for Mother's Day, it'll be perfect for ANY gift for ANY reason on ANY day. And the perfect thing to say to your mom is Thank You! I'll tell you a little secret. Ann took a couple pictures of this bag just moments apart. The other one makes the stamping look... Continue reading

Ann is back! But she's not totally awake yet. i don't know how she does it, but many of you have started to receive our thank you cards for shopping online with us in April. Glad you like them! Those of you shopping today will get a new catalog in the mail soon when your order is over $50. Many thanks to Mike and Donna for making sure everyone got back home in one piece. I can't wait until we do our 24/7 Stampers online gathering on Wednesday. And the Master Stampers will be able to see some things up... Continue reading
Dear Stamper and everyone: You don't know how much I tried to send you something from Fiji. The camera on my phone worked, but I couldn't post. I could write on my tablet, but there were no pictures. I'll have lots to share tomorrow but just wanted you all to know I was thinking about you. Be sure to get your order in so we can send you a catalog. Love, Ann Continue reading

Sometime this week, Ann is going to a Pajama Party without me. She'll be laughing and swapping and sharing and probably looking at the new Stampin' Up! catalog without me. Hard to believe. I know. But I know that she's thinking of me. And she's thinking of you too! In fact, those of you who bought from us in April should be receiving your reusable green cards. (Get it? Green Cards because they're reusable!) All these 26 cards were lovingly stuffed into a bag to take with her. And then she'll come back with at LEAST 25 different ideas. (You... Continue reading

I'mtaking this time to remind you about some cool cards we've featured in the last year that are on the chopping block. If you know someone graduating soon, this card can be made now, but soon the Friendly Phrases stamp set will no longer be available. If you're wondering about how to make that Graduation Cap, here's a quick video that will help. Here's some of what we used to make this card in Ann's high school colors.

No watering, just enjoying! It's a perfect Baker's Dozen of flowers for your favorite friend or relative - or maybe yourself! Get yours here while supplies last. Stuff like this doesn't last long.

I wish I could keep up on all the Accessories that are being sold off. But here's something you should get. It's great even if you don't have a Big Shot, but even better if you do. And if a DOG edorses it, you know it's good. It's a grrreat carry-on. Ann said that someone on the plane to convention with her brought their Big Shot to convention in it to finish her swaps! Or you could get one for YOUR dog to go styling in! Get your Big Shot Doctor's Bag here. Maybe Ann can smuggle me on the... Continue reading

PLUS we'll include a small sampler of all the new colors from the Color Refresh AND the new IN Colors. We're happy to put a catalog with all this cool stuff in your mailbox, we'd just like you to help us with the postage. Send Ann an email with your delivery address & phone number.

We've got TWO winners to announce today! First, our Mystery Hostess winner from yesterday is L. Camacho of Kansas! If you want to be a part of today's Mystery Hostess opportunity, please shop here and use the Hostess Code 7XDUGMHK. Let me show you our retiring inspiration piece. The Petal Cone Die is going away and so is the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing folder that we used for this project. Gotta love cards with shape!

We stayed up waiting patiently by the computer until the clock struck 11pm. That meant that it was midnight in Stampin' Up! land. The good news is that I had Ann redo the hard to read version of the retiring Accessories list. She made a special one just for my favorite stampers. And before I bark any farther, let me remind you that Stampin' Up! will make ALL the stamps you want until June 3rd. BUT when the accessories are gone - they're GONE! You can download the retiring accessories list here and save up to 60%! Use today's code... Continue reading

We haven't been using this set enough! Well, ANN'S been using it, but not for the blog. What is she thinking!?! She should share EVERYTHING with me! So to spice it up, I had her throw in some of that new Epic Day Designer Series Paper that was released this month as part of the This & That collection. And you can get it as part of this limited edition bundle AND save 15%! Sure! You can wait to get it when the new catalog comes out, but you won't get the bundle with the cool journal! Are you on...

Tonight at midnight Pacific Daylight Time is your last chance to play and win ANY STAMP SET IN THE NEW CATALOG! All you have to do is submit a Baker's Dozen to predict what stamp sets (other than hostess sets) will be missing from the new catalog being released in late May. You don't have to be psychic!

Yes, I'm going to miss Baja Breeze. It's a very good color for this dog. I wish we'd have stocked up on the card stock while it was still here. And I'm going to miss that little splash of Riding Hood Red too. But there are still some Baja Breeze & Riding Hood Red things in our online store - but not for long because once they're gone, they're gone! Speaking of color - what's YOUR favorite color combo? I'm meditating about what color I'd like to change my blog to. I'm just dreaming, but what do you think it... Continue reading

Put your sunglasses on for this bright and blingy gift tag! You might recognize the card base. It was shown in the video on how to use wheels that we showed in this post. Those Unmentionable Videos are so fun! And this one has the BEST introduction AND ending! So we cut the card down to 4-1/4" square and used some of the Pop Up Posies Designer Kit that Ann hsared with the Master Stampers during their live online classes last week. Being a true crafter, I frequently cruises the stamp table to see if there's anything left behind to... Continue reading

Ann's been holding out on me. She stashed this set away and didn't want me to know she had it. She knows how much I like nature! Especially trees! But are either of these sets going to be on the chopping block when the Stampin' Up! Retirement List is released on April 24th? What do YOU think? If you haven't put your entry in for the Crystal Ball Contest, you need to do it now. Find out all the details in this post and submit your best guesses. Who knows? You might be psychic! Like it? Share it! You can... Continue reading

Oh, this is my favorite time of year! ONE WEEK FROM TODAY, the official Stampin' Up! Retirement List will be released. And my loyal fans know that can just mean one thing! It's time for my 8th Annual Crystal Ball Contest! And the winner will get to pick ANY STAMP SET OF THEIR CHOICE IN THE NEW CATALOG. Now with every contest, there must be rules. Ask my gal pal Doodles. She's an Agility Champion and has to tow the line every time she runs the race! But I digress. This is one of our most popular events here at... Continue reading
