Yay! Today is the start of Sale-a-Bration, as well as, the release of the Occasions Catalog. There are lots of fantastic products available in the Occasions Catalog and over the next several weeks, I will be sharing projects using some of the products available. The other excitement is the kick-off of Sale-a-Bration. From now until March 31, you can earn free products with qualifying orders of $50 or $100. The free product is just one of the perks of Sale-a-Bration. It’s also a great time to consider joining Stampin’ Up! When you join as a demonstrator between now and March 31, you receive your starter kit at $99 USD/$135 CAD, along with the choice of TWO additional stamp sets in your kit—any stamp set, any price. (Excludes bundles and Sale-A-Bration sets.) Plus, the kit ships for free! Best of all, you will reap the benefit of saving on your future orders. It’s a win-win! Contact me for more details or join the fun now.
One of the free stamp sets available with a $50 order (before tax & shipping) is the Heartfelt Blooms Stamp Sets. Check out the video below to learn about this new “Distinktive” stamp offered by Stampin’ Up!
My set should be arriving soon and I look forward to sharing samples with you.

Happy New Year! Hope that you enjoyed the holidays and that 2018 is off to a good start. We had a wonderful holiday with both sons and their families arriving on Christmas Eve for the night. It was lots of fun watching Alex, who is 8, teach Brooklynn (9 months) the tricks to unwrapping gifts. Naturally, she was more interested in pulling the wrapping paper out of the trash bag! Oh, what fun!
The world celebrates the New Year and Stampin’ Up! kicks off Sale-A-Bration starting tomorrow so I decided to share a mini-treat bag that can be used for all sorts of celebrations. The Birthday Memories Designer Series Paper (DSP) was used for constructing the bag. The Birthday Friends Framelits Dies made decorating the bag quick and easy using the DSP! The “Let’s Celebrate” sentiment is from the Birthday Delivery Stamp Set and a mask was used when stamping to block the “your day!” on the stamp. The Birthday Delivery Bundle includes all of these items offering a 10% savings. I finished off the bag by scattering a few rhinestones on the bag.

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check back this week for Sale-a-bration details. The new Occasions catalog also goes “live” tomorrow, January 3!
While wrapping the last of the Christmas gifts today, I had a couple small gifts needing packaging. Off to my craft room to find something that would work…the Mini Pizza Boxes were perfect and by using a few other items in my craft room, the wrapping was done in record time. Now all gifts are wrapped and stashed under the Christmas tree!
Quick Christmas Gift Packaging using Stampin’ Up! Mini Pizza Boxes
After assembling the pizza boxes and adding the gift, Stampin’ Up! Baker’s Twine was used to wrap around three of the boxes. The center two boxes were wrapped multiple times with the Baker’s Twine, taped on the back and then the strands were separated on the front to appear like a tree. Each was embellished with a tree topper! The other was wrapped on all sides with the Baker’s Twine and then a Stitched Felt Embellishment was added. On another of the boxes, two of the Boxwood Wreaths Embellishments were unwound and then rewrapped to create one larger wreath for adding to the Mini Pizza Box. Baker’s Twine was used to mimic a hanger and a Season of Gifts Mini Gift Bow was added to add a bit of color to the wreath. So if you have some last minute gifts needing special wrapping, be sure to look through your Stampin’ Up! supplies.
Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I’m expecting family to start arriving mid-day so my next posting is planned for later in the week. In the meantime…
