Retiring List Announced!


It's that time of year again! Time to say good bye to some of our old friends so we can make room for some great new friends.

The Retiring List of Accessories and Stamp Sets has been announced. Some items are reduced as much as 60% off. Accessories are available only while supplies last, so don't hesitate! Grab your Wish List, your favorite beverage and head on over to my website to check things out.

Here's a quick link to get you there even faster! Retiring Products

I do have a card for you today. This one is pretty simple, and used the two fabulous Butterfly Punches. The larger Elegant Butterfly Punch is in the Annual Catalog, and the small Bitty Butterfly Punch can be found in the Spring Catalog.


The patterned paper is from the Print Poetry Designer Series Paper Stack in the Spring Catalog. I'm addicted to these little guys! They are such a great value. You get 48 sheets, 4 each of 12 double sided designs in each pad. They measure 4-1/2" x 6-1/2" inches, making them perfect for card fronts or mounting photos in your scrapbooks.

Hurry on over to my website to check out what's retiring, and don't forget, there are only a few more days to take advantage of these promotions.

Thanks for stopping by! Contact me with any questions concerning any of the current promotions, the retiring product, or just to chat about Stampin' Up!

Seriously Cute!

Paper Pumpkin Kit #2 arrived at my doorstep on Saturday! I was so excited because this month was a total surprise. I already knew what the first kit looked like before it arrived. When Stampin' Up! announced the new Paper Pumpkin program at Leadership in January, they surprised everyone there with a kit! A wonderful perk of being a Demonstrator. Everyone who signs up will receive the Welcome Kit as their first kit. This kit contains your free Clear Block that you will then use in the kits to follow.


These kits are fabulous! They arrive at your doorstep, or in your mailbox, once a month and contain everything you need to complete your project, except for adhesive. You'll receive pre-cut cardstock, stamps, ink, embellishments, and instructions on how to assemble your project. As a Demonstrator, I enjoy receiving a kit with the card stock already cut, the project designed, and the embellishments all packaged and ready for me to take just a few minutes and escape to create! Visit the My Paper Pumpkin website now to check it out.

When you decide that you too want a creative escape, and sign up to receive your Paper Pumpkin once a month, I will send you a Snail Adhesive free! Then you'll have everything you need to complete your project when it arrives.

*Be sure to choose me as your Demonstrator when signing up for your Paper Pumpkin to receive your free adhesive.

Thanks for stopping by ~

*Since I posted this, Stampin' Up! updated the Paper Pumpkin website. Now, when you click on my links, it will automatically choose me for your Demonstrator ~ easy peasy for you!

Honeycomb Love!

That could be my title for almost every product in the Stampin' Up! catalog. I do Love it all!


This Honeycomb Textured Impressions Embossing Folder found in the Spring Catalog is definitely a favorite and a great way to add texture to any project. I embossed small pieces of Whisper White, Soft Suede, Summer Starfruit and Pool Party Card Stock, a good way to use up some scraps, and hand cut the layered honeycombs. The little bee from the Collage Curios Stamp Set, also found in the Spring Catalog, is the perfect addition. For a little more texture, I scattered some Basic Pearls around my card.

I used the Happiest Birthday sentiment from the Apothecary Art Stamp Set, but any sentiment would work for this card.

Don't forget about all the great promotions going on right now ~

Wild About Washi Tape!

Have you purchased the This & That Bundle yet? Oh my goodness ~ These products are fabulous! I have found a new Love ~ Washi Tape. I have seen it around, used on cards and scrapbook pages, but I had never actually used it myself.


Here are the 3 colors of tape that come in the bundle. It's kind of hard to see here, but the Crumb Cake stripe has numbers on it, and the Calypso Coral stripe has a honeycomb pattern on it. Very cute! This tape is self adhesive, and very forgiving, so if you need to adjust it a little, you can without messing it up.

The little Best Wishes stamp is from the Rotary Stamp included in the bundle. This stamp has 12 sayings, dates up to 2023 and sells individually for only $5.95!

Visit my online store to order your This & That Bundle before April 30 and get all five products for 15% off! These products will be available in the new 2013/2014 Annual Catalog, but not in the bundle, and not at a 15% discount.
