Mini Catalog and Sale-a-bration coming soon! 

Look what Mr. Brown delivered today with my pre-order from the spring mini catalog! 

 

Fall Cards

I played with the Gilded Autumn Specialty papers to create some cards using Gold Foil, Gold Embossing Powder and Burlap ribbon. I love how they turned out! 

 

I couldn't resist and miss all my stamping buddies! 

 

Mini Catalog January - June 2021

I  attended an online Stampin Up event this weekend celebrating 20 years with the company.  Lots of cute cards and techniques were shared. Check out these cards made from the Dragonfly Garden Bundle coming to you in the 2021 January - June Mini Catalog

 

HALLOWEEN CARDS

The first card I sent to my family, the second card was received from my stamping buddy Lora Broadhurst and the third card from another demonstrator Cory King.

Perhaps some ideas for next year? 

 

On Stage Stampin Up Event

I got my Swag Bag Box and this is a preview of what I received from Stampin Up for the OnStage at home event next weekend. It certainly wouldn't be as fun as attending this event at some really nice nearby city but better than nothing.  Looking forward to stamping online with other demonstrators around the word.  I have all my supplies lined up!

FALL IS THE BEST TIME FOR MAKING CARDS

HERE ARE SOME IDEAS FOR HALLOWEEN AND THANKSGIVING

 

 I previously posted some of the Paid Tiding cards that I made. I ended up with lots of scraps and decided to use those scraps and others that I have collected over time to make additional cards from leftovers.  What do you think? 

Plaid Tiding strips alternating with coordinating CS and leftover pumpkin shape and orange & white label

Plaid Tiding DSP with space between strips and Merry Moose stamp set.  

 I've been playing around with the Plaid Tidings Suite from the fall and winter Mini Catalog.  These are 3 different cards that I have come up with so far.  Has anyone else made anything with any of these?  If so post them here! 

August-December Mini Catalog Coming Soon!

Are you getting excited about the new August-December Mini Catalog yet?  They should be arriving at your mailbox very soon. You can start ordering August 4th.  Here are some projects made from items for sale in the Mini Catalog to get you excited!!!

CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) UPDATE

SU continues to monitor news of COVID-19 and account for its possible impact to several business aspects that will affect demonstrators (manufacturing, transportation, travel, events, etc.). The health and safety of demonstrators and staff is important to us and we appreciate your partnership and patience as we work to address this global issue.

We are doing all we can to mitigate the impact to our demonstrators and customers, including air freighting products when possible. Each week we will update the list below with the products in your market that we know will be (or already are) affected by these delays:

• 100082: Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker

Memento and StazOn Ink (New information this week)

We received inventory of Memento and StazOn ink products and fulfilled backorders in NA.

Product Production

Our manufacturer of ink refill bottles has been prioritizing the production of medical products, which means right now, our ink refill production is limited to the number of bottles currently at our Kanab facility. We expect production to be limited over the next several weeks, until our manufacturer is able to fulfill our orders for more bottles. In an effort to minimize the impact of these delays, we placed a limit on all the 2020–2022 In Color ink refills. Even with the limits, these colors have all gone into Not Orderable status. We will provide more inventory as soon as we can.

Our manufacturing facility in North America continues to work overtime and operate on two shifts. However, with a delay between shifts, being understaffed, and working to train new workers, our capacity is lowered. Through all of this, we are working hard to minimize backorders of stamps, Classic Stampin’ Ink, and cardstock, but there will be backorders on these products in the coming months—especially as our ability to react quickly to unexpected product demands is hindered due to the current situation. Our production of Classic Stampin’ Ink Pads is particularly limited at this time. We are focusing our efforts on fulfilling individual color ink pads before we move to collection assortments.

We are seeing delays in production from some of our North American suppliers but they are all continuing to produce products and if that changes, we will let you know.

All the factories we use in China are up and running, but the COVID-19 outbreak has caused more delays than usual in our ability to replenish products. Air freight coming from China is also in high demand, making it difficult to expedite products.

Shipping

UPS has suspended all shipping guarantees. This means you may not receive your packages on the days you expect. Even expedited shipments are seeing a one- to two-day delay. 

Our North American distribution center is currently shipping within two to five business days after an order is placed.

Christmas in July!

I don't have my pre-ordered Stampin Up products yet but the new August–December 2020 Mini Catalog is giving me ideas.  I am using my retired products to start making Christmas cards inspired by the pictures of cards in the catalog.  You should be receiving your catalog this month.  How exciting!

MASSive Catalog Kick-Off June 2020

I attended an online demonstrator meeting this weekend via Zoom and Facebook live.  It was really fun and relaxing to work on projects sent out previously and to receive 21 cards visa USPS for several days in a row.  Here are the cards that I received in the mail before the event took place.  Lots of ideas for you on how to use the new products!  Enjoy!
