August 31st -Big Shot Bundle Deadline!

For those of you that have been thinking about the Big Shot Promotion - don't think any longer!  Today is the last day to place that order and get some amazing deals.

So I decided to pop in one more time to remind you that today is the last day of August’s amazing Big Shot promotion – where you can earn one of select bundles for FREE when you buy a Big Shot.  BUT…

You don’t have to buy a Big Shot to take advantage of this amazing promotion.  If you already have a  Big Shot, you can purchase any of these bundles at 15% off.  You love these products and love them even more so with amazing bundles!  So I'm pretty sure this promotion is calling your name. 

Here are the options (click on the picture below to shop the options in my online store):
choices for discounted bundles on BS promotion

These are great deals – earn them free when you buy a Big Shot OR purchase them at 15% off.  Woo hoo!  It’s a great time to throw in a few Holiday Catalog items.

Thank you for stopping by today!

Have a Blessed Sunday!

Christmas in August?

It feels SO GOOD to play with my stamps and inks and pens, oh my!

This past Tuesday was Arizona's Primary Election and working for the County Elections Department has had us all working long hours.  Needless to say, there wasn't any stamping time (or sleeping time!)  Hopefully this weekend I can do some serious catching up and play more!

It is a little hard to think of Christmas when we have triple digits here in Phoenix, but I love Christmas and all the fun and beautiful cards that come this time of year, so here is my first one and it's not even September yet! 

When I first saw this set, I immediately fell in love with it.  So cute and the best part, it's a Photopolymer CLEAR set which makes placement of the car, tree and snowman so perfectly easy!

What items do you get to choose from to fill your Starter Kit?
  • You choose $150 worth of absolutely ANY Stampin' Up! items that you want!
  • Choose from the Annual Catalog…the Clearance Rack…Weekly Deals…New Arrivals…Project Life…Blendabilities…online only Photopolymer Stamp Sets…
  • AND ITEMS FROM THE UPCOMING HOLIDAY CATALOG!!!
  • That’s right – if you want to, you can pop Holiday Catalog items into your Starter Kit – how cool is that?
  • You can’t order them as a customer yet, but you can add them to your Starter Kit!
  • And once you have joined, you can order more from the Holiday Catalog because we are in Demonstrator pre-order right now!

Will you have to sell any Stampin Up products or can you just join to get a fabulous discount?
  • NO – you do not have to sell anything to anybody EVER!
  • You can be whoever you choose – most on my team are ‘hobby demonstrators’ meaning they join just for the wonderful personal discount on their personal purchases.
  • Stampin’ Up! does not put any pressure on any demonstrator to do anything EVER – it is a wonderful company to be a part of.
  • You can join simply to get a fabulous discount on your favorite crafting supplies and only ever make purchases for yourself.

What are the big Perks?
  • You will get a ONE TIME 30% off of your first Demonstrator order of $150+ that you place in the first 45 days of joining.

  • Quarters run Jan-Mar, Apr-June, July-Sept, Oct-Dec
  • BUT the quarter you join in is WAIVED – meaning when you join in August – NOW – you have until DECEMBER 31st to do this!
  • And on December 1st you will be able to take part in the Occasions Catalog pre-order – that catalog will go live to customers in early January so you get to order from it a full month early!
  • If you did not make your minimums on December 31st, you will have a ‘pending’ month that gives you a chance to make up that shortfall.
  • If you do not, your pending month would end on January 31st – and on February 1st you will no longer be a demonstrator.

If you used to be a Demonstrator but dropped, can you re-join to take advantage of this great offer?

Bloom With Hope Thanks

 
It's Thank You Time again!  Saturday's workshop order was delivered and has been sorted and inside each package is a little thank you from me to the girls!

I have so much fun making these each month and I hope the girls like them too.

 
 
Each card is 3" x 3" and fits nicely inside the sleeve of a stamp set or package of bling.  Today's card starts with a base of Basic Black cut at 6" x 3" and scored at 3".  The first layer is Baked Brown Sugar cut at 2 7/8" x 2 7/8" and then Very Vanilla at 2 3/4" x 2 3/4".
 
 
 
 

I stamped the large flower from the Hostess Set - Bloom With Hope with Momento Ink and then colored it with Rich Razzleberry Blendabilities and Daffodil Delight. 

Using Gorgeous Grunge, I stamped the small splotches with Old Olive. I then sponged the edges with Baked Brown Sugar.

 
The Thank You is from Blooming with Kindness.  It's a perfect fit!  Inside I put another piece of Very Vanilla cut at 2 3/4" x 2 3/4" to write my thank you notes inside.
 

It turned out pretty nice, don't you think?  I'm still just crazy about coloring with my Blendabilities!  If you haven't tried them yet... you should check them out and give them a try.  Nothing more relaxing that coloring.  Remember those days as a kid when coloring was you dream job!?  Great Fun!

Thank you for looking in today.  If I can help you with anything you see here, please let me know!

Classic

Before I share today's card, I have a question for you.  Did you receive your Holiday Catalog in the mail yet?  My regular customers began getting theirs today! 

If you don't have a demonstrator and would like to have one (a demonstrator and a catalog), please email me with your information and I will be happy to send one to you!

I'll soon be sharing it on my blog, so you will be able to see it online as well.  Email me:  StampsWellWithOthers@gmail.com

Now, on today's card:  Happy Birthday to My Brudder!

It's time to dig out this great photopoly set for a birthday card for my brother.  This sentiment is so perfect for him because he's SOOO much older than me.  So much so, that I felt like an only child most of the time!  LOL 

He's eleven years older, so I can certainly rib him about this - don't you think? 



 
Thank you for looking in today.  Have a happy hump day!
 
~ Donna
