Bonus Days End

Bonus Days end today.  I hope you have had great month earning your coupons for September.  Stampin’ Up! had a good idea to make the Bonus Days the month before the Holiday Catalog came out.  This way you can utilize the coupons with the Holiday Catalog. You still have some time to earn a $5 Bonus Days coupon for every $50 you spend (before shipping and tax). There is no limit to the amount of coupons you can earn so that means grab them while you can.  You can order til 11:50 PM (MT) tonight.

Bonus Days End

Bonus Days End wtih a Bang

These coupons will come at a great time because as you know, starting next week the Holiday Catalog will be live. There are so many products to choose from in this new catalog.  I’m excited to get started on my Halloween projects with the products from the Holiday Catalog.  You can shop my online store with your coupons all month long. 

Finally, remember that the coupons must be used by September 30th.  Therefore, it’s a great way to kick off your holiday shopping with new stamp sets and accessories.  As with every new catalog, there are also some new Bundles and Suites to choose from.  If you received your catalog already, you know what I’m talking about. The anticipation of the Holiday Catalog always keeps me going and now I am even more excited about using my coupons.  Furthermore, the Color Your Season products were an added bonus.

If you have any questions about the Bonus Days, or any of the Stampin’ Up! promotions, please let me know.

Focus With Coloring

Remember the fun as a child to use crayons and a coloring book?  In this month’s card class,  it was designed to focus with coloring.   The coloring being the use an image from the Blended Seasons bundle in the current Color Your Season promotion which is a limited-time offering.  Included in the bundle is the Blended Seasons Stamp Set and the coordinating Stitched Seasons Framelits.  Plus being offered is a new Watercolor Pencils Assortment of ten pencils in popular colors.  The Watercolor Pencils Assortment 2 is full of colors that compliment the existing Watercolor Pencils in the Annual Catalog.  The Blended Seasons stamp set provides the perfect base for focus with coloring and the watercolor pencils.  Attendees are also able to create cards and a treat hold using all the limited-time products.

How Do You Focus With Coloring

The card below features the Blended Seasons flower stamp.  Jet Black Stazon Ink was used to stamp the image and sentiment onto Shimmery White Cardstock (note – this is probably a great time to use your Stamparatus!)  The images were colored using the Flirty Flamingo and Garden Green watercolor pencils from Assortment 2 along with an aqua painter to soften and blend the coloring.  The Daffodil Delight Watercolor pencil from the original watercolor pencil set was used to color the flower centers.  The middle flower was also stamped on a scrap piece of Shimmery White, colored and fussy cut to attach to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Leaves are cut from Garden Green Cardstock using die from Stitched Seasons framelits.  

Finally, to finish the card, add a touch of bling with several Basic Rhinestone Jewels also randomly added to the card front.  Flirty Flamingo cardstock was used for the card base and a Basic Black cardstock layer was used to create a small frame around the Shimmery White stamped layer.  Giving it even more dimension and another layer.

It keeps Getting Better

Use the Gift Bag Punch Board to cut the Cajun Craze cardstock.  After cutting and scoring the Cajun Craze cardstock, the leaf stamp from Blended Seasons was also used to randomly stamp the paper using Cajun Craze classic stampin’ pad.  The Stitched Seasons framelits were used to cut the tag components.  Cut orange hue leaf using watercolor paper and a blend of Brusho Crystal Color.  Behind the tag, the white side of a Pealized Doily was sponged with Mossy Meadow ink.  Because the gold binder clip used as the bag closure has been discontinued,  I recommend using the Gold Library Clips.  The Thinking of You sentiment is from the Treat Time stamp set, stamp using Mossy Meadow ink.  Substituting for another favorite sentiment is another way to go.  Finally, It was completed by adding a triple bow of Linen Thread.  See the full list of project materials below.  

Blended Seasons

Finally, be sure to order your Blended Seasons Bundle and the Watercolor Pencils Assortment 2 soon…they are only available until August 31st or while supplies last.  Because it has been so popular, it will probably sell out before the promotion ends.
