I share a weekly Facebook Live and the latest in swap cards received.

Reminder BOGO sale – when you shop my BOGO sale, you get 50% credit to shop in the new catalog.  For example, you spend $50 buying my retired merchandise, you would then have a $25 credit to shop in the new catalog.  You would have until 8/31/2020 to use your catalog credit.

As we continue with different phases of businesses opening, I will host a “BOGO” retired sale this year.  It will be a little different than the past.  If you would like to shop in person, you can sign up for a time slot to shop from tables in my garage.  You will need to wear a mask, practice social distancing and get a squirt of hand sanitizer before entering.   Of course, if you are ill, you will want to skip the in-person.  You just need to message or email me, to let me know the date/time that works best for you.  The slots will be available on a  first come, first serve basis.  Just message me with your top time choices and I will get you scheduled!  Everyone loves a good deal!

Stamps, dies, cardstock, DSP, punches, accessories…clearing out the retiring to make room for the new!!!

Dates/times for BOGO – Sign up for a 30 min. time slot
You would be shopping by yourself (or with a friend if you bring someone)
Sat., 6/6 (9 am – Noon)
Sun., 6/7 (11 am – 2 pm)
Mon., 6/8 (10 am – 2 pm)
Tues., 6/9 (10 am – 2 pm)
Sat., 6/13 (9 am – Noon)

I will follow the BOGO sale up with a Virtual sale on my FB group on Tues., 6/16/2020 at 5 pm.  This one will NOT be a BOGO sale.  It will be priced as is.  Porch pick up will be available or Priority Mail shipping will also be an option.

Thank you for all of the comments yesterday!  It feels good to get back into blogging!!!

#857 – Stepping it Up – Tues., June 2, 2020


I love the soft colors in these cards!!!  All three are beautiful, but each card as a little more detail/embellishment to “step it up”!  These cards were made using the “Gorgeous Posies” stamp set on p. 8 of the new 2020-21 SU catalog.  LOVE them!!!

Little Changes, Big Impact
How can you take a project from simple to stepped up? It’s as easy as adding an embellishment here and a technique there. Here’s the step-it-up story for our samples.
  • Simple (first sample). Use stamps, ink, paper.
  • A bit stepped up (second sample). Add a Crumb Cake Cardstock layer, Flowers for Every Season Gems, and Rococo Rose 1/2″ (1.3 cm) Scalloped Linen Ribbon; spatter the background using a Water Painter and ink.
  • Really stepped up (third sample). Stamp dots and more flowers, and swap the ribbon for Forever Greenery Trim; emboss the background using the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder, and sponge on more color.
You can do the same for any project. Step it up by adding layers, embellishments, and color. What you do is up to you!

Today (Tues., 6/2/2020) is the last day to order from the 2019 – 20 SU catalog!  Be sure to check out your wish list and see if there is anything you want before it is gone!!!

Also, don’t forget my BOGO sale starting this Sat., 6/6.  Pick a time, get you mask on and stop on by to shop from my retired items.  You get 50% credit towards anything you purchase to shop in the new catalog!  Win-Win!  Message me or leave a comment if you would like more details.

Starting Weds., 6/3/2020, in the afternoon we can begin to order from the NEW catalog.  Be sure to let me know if you need a copy.
