CHANGE IN STAMPARATUS RESERVATION WINDOWS

The results are in! The first Stamparatus reservation window reached its maximum number of reservations in just 15 minutes, which provided us with some very important information: You LOVE this new stamping tool! We couldn’t be more thrilled; in fact, your response was so amazing that we’ve decided to make some important adjustments to the reservation process.
As was previously announced, the second reservation window will remain open from December 5–30; however, during this reservation period we will take as many orders as we receive (yay!) and not close the window until December 30. So whether the total number of reservations is 100 or 100,000, the window will stay open!

Stampin'Blends-New Markers Coming Soon!!!

 THE NEW STAMPIN'BLEND MARKERS WILL BE AVAILABLE NOVEMBER 1!!!

I know some of you may remember the Blendabilities from a few years ago. They were not great quality and when Stampin'UP! learned about the downfalls, they stopped selling them and in turn gave customers their money back. Stampin'UP! is assuring us that these markers have been put thru very stringent testing and that we will NOT have any problems with the new Stampin'Blends.

I love the fact that you can buy them individually and of course they coordinate beautifully with all of the other products. I will be having future technique classes on these markers and will have videos and How To's.

Gelli Plate Samples

Jean taught us a wonderful class on Saturday and I wanted to post a few of the samples that I created! I loved this technique and it would be alot of fun to include the whole family on this one! I will definitely be doing this again! Thank you Jean! Mwah! These are going to amke beautiful backgrounds for my cards!
