Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip & Horse Frontier!

Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip & Horse Frontier!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! I've been quiet for a few days because I've been prepping and packing for the Stampin' Up! 2014 Worldwide Incentive Trip! My son and I leave today!

10255206_10152389575808428_6199303124897837082_n

With all the preparations needed I haven't even done my pre-order yet, can you believe it? I HAVE placed a big order for new catalogs, so don't worry, they will soon be on their way! My New Catalog Premiere Open House will be May 30th & 31st!

Here's a quick card I haven't shown you yet, using Horse Frontier, another Retiring Stamp Set which unfortunately has already sold out:

Stampin_up_horse_frontier_1 - Copy

And the inside:

Stampin_up_horse_frontier_2 - Copy

I really loved pairing the Harwood Background with the Soho Subway Designer Paper for this one!

Well, I've got to get a move on. Troy & I leave for the airport in just a little while! I hope to post my Sunday swap day before we get on the boat tomorrow, and hopefully schedule a few more posts for you before I leave, we'll see!

The Retiring Stamps and Accessories Lists are still available. Go to my Online Store HERE to shop the Retiring Lists, updated Clearance Rack (lots of great Holiday Catalog items just added this week!), Weekly Deals, and more!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sweetie Pies & Flower Shop!

Stampin’ Up! Sweetie Pies & Flower Shop!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Busy day today around here! LIam is here for awhile until his daddy picks him up after he is done at school today, so things are really hopping! I'm working diligently on my packing and prepping everything I need for the Stampin' Up! Western Caribbean Cruise. We leave for Ft Lauderdale Friday afternoon. Yikes!

I love the card I have to share with you today, but I'm also a bit sad because the photopolymer set I used for the focal point, Sweetie Pies, is out-of-stock already! ugh! The new Annual Catalog has new photopolymer sets in it that will not sell out because Stampin' Up! will be manufacturing their own photopolymers from now on! yay!

Here's the card:

Stampin_up_sweetie_pies_1 - Copy

I've been using a lot of my retiring designer paper, getting ready for all the beautiful new patterns that are in the New Annual Catalog, so this card uses three of the designs from the Gingham Garden Designer Series paper. I also used the retiring Square Lattice Textured Impressions Folder on the Basic Black strip across the center of the card. The flowers are stamped with the Flower Shop stamp set and punched with the Pansey Punch, which are NOT retiring, but the Bundle that saves you 15% off the combination of the stamp set and punch IS retiring. I will include the images for those in my supply list below so you can go right to my Online Store to order before the bundle sells out! The Wish Big greeting is from Delightful Dozen, which is also carrying over to the new catalog.

Stampin_up_sweetie_pies_2 - Copy

Inside and on the envelope I continued the Flower Shop theme, stamping with Melon Mambo, Island Indigo, and Daffodil Delight to match the Gingham Garden paper. The inside sentiment is from Really Good Greetings with is NOT retiring.

That's all for now. If you have been thinking about ordering any of the retiring stamp sets I would advise you GET THEM NOW before they are gone. Go to my webstore HERE or click on any of the pictures in the supply list below to start your order.

BTW! Stampin' Up! also just re-stocked the Clearance Rack with new discounted items from the last Holiday Catalog, so there's lots new there too!

AND all orders of $25 or more receive Bluesox Tokens from me, good toward free stuff from any Stampin' Up! catalog!

 

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Here's a short list of new products and announcements from last night:

  • Blendabillities: The first 6 sets of the Stampin Up Blendabilities alcohol markers will be available to demonstrators may 1, and to customers June 1!
  • New Fast Fuse adhesive. Think ‘sticky strip’ in an applicator like Snail adhesive. (both Snail and Sticky Strip adhesives are still available)
  • Dazzling Diamonds Glitter IS NOT DEAD! There was a scare on the retiring accessories list, but Dazzling Diamonds was actually only being re-configured, it is not going away!!!!!!WHEW!!!!!
  • Stampin Up Leadership 2015 will be held in Orlando, FL. January 29-31, 2015. All levels of Demonstrators will be able to attend. Join my team of Yes Mam! Stampers and take a trip to sunny Florida with me next January! You will never regret it!

The second thing I am excited about in this Weeks' Weekly Deals are the Dress Up Framelit Dies! These are the dies I used to make this card for my Girly Girls Class last week:

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's a beautiful Sunday morning! I get to go to church today! yay! I will be missing church for the next two Sundays because I will be on (and coming home from) the Stampin' Up! cruise, so I'm especially glad for today!

I hope to be able to schedule posts for while I'm gone, so keep checking back! We leave on Friday!

Today I have  three fun swaps to share! The first one is perfect for Mother's Day, which will be coming up in just TWO Sundays, can you belive it?

Mary waring 1

Mary Waring created her card with Gingham Garden Designer Paper for the flower pot base, Gingham Garden Designer Washi Tape to seal the sides of the pot, and Delicate Details Lace tape for the flower pot rim embellishment. (ALL three of these products are on the Retiring Accessories List but ARE still available) You can access the lists by clicking on the links:

Download US_Retiring_Stamps-3

Download US_Retiring_Accessories-4

Mary waring 2

The pull-up portion has Flower Shop and Petite Petals flowers, both punched with the coordinating punches, and pearls for the centers. I love this type of card! I haven't made one in awhile!

Deb McCahan used a tutuorial she found on Splitcoaststampers to help her create this unusual pop-out card with Happy Watercolor, Secret Garden(retiring and now only available in Clear Mount), and Mixed Bunch:

Deb McCahan1

Opening . . . then open just a liiiiitle more . .

Deb McCahan 2

Pop! Deb used the "pedestal pop up" tutorial in case you want to go look for it!

Deb McCahan 3

Finally for today, an adorable punched puppy card by Nancy Hall!

Nancy hall 1

Nancy used the Heart Framelit Dies for the puppy's face and ears, then used the Full Heart Punch (retiring), Small Heart Punch (retiring), and circle punches for his face and tongue.

Nancy hall 2

Inside she stamped the numbers image from Bring on the Cake, (also retiring and already SOLD OUT), highlighting the age number with a Real Red Stampin' Write Marker!

That's all for now. I need to get my Sunday dinner in the oven before I'm off to church! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Here are the products used today that are retiring but STILL AVAILABLE:

Stampin’ Up! Free Shipping, Retiring Lists, Weekly Deals, and Secret Garden!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Just posting quick today. I have a workshop tonight and tomorrow night that I am prepping for, so I'm a bit time crunched today. I've been trying to add a few non-stamping additions to my day that take bites out of my prep (and blogging!) time, coupled with the dratted Typepad downtime that we experienced for almost 5 days, it's really gotten me out of my blogging routine! I'm trying to exercise more and eat healthier to try to relieve some inflamation and joint pain I've been experiencing. It seems to be helping, but I just don't have my new routine figured out yet. I'm so sorry!

If you get (and open) my  newsletter emails you know about the FREE SHIPPING that Stampin' Up! has going on right now, but just in case you missed it:

Stampin_up_secret_garden_kathy_johnson

A pretty little thinking of you card by Kathy Johnson from one of my past monthly swaps! Cathy stamped the Secret Garden image on Whisper White, then ran the layer through the Big Shot in the Square Lattice Textured Impressions Folder, giving it an embedded look! The greeting is from Thoughts & Prayers, and she cut out one of the Secret Garden blooms with the Secret Garden Framelit Dies.

Secret Garden stamps and framelits, as well as the Square Lattice TIEF are both on the Retiring List. Don't delay if you want them for your collection, and shipping is still free through tomorrow!
