Share What You Love Suite

Life got in the way this week so I do not have a card or project prepared to share today. My apologies. Now that I have your attention, I just wanted to let you know that you have an opportunity to purchase the Share What You Love bundle.

You have to go online to see the fabulous bundles put together for you by Stampin' Up! Please go to my online store at sandee904.stampinup.net. I have a new Hostess Code for the month of May. Every order of $75 or more will receive a product share (sampling of several new, current product). The share will be mailed out the first week of June. Reminders:  1) If you are a new customer, be sure that you do not check "no contact" or I will not be able to send out a product share to you and 2) if your order is $150 or more be sure to place your own order and take advantage of the Stampin' Rewards of your choice. Make sense? Of course, if you have any questions, please message me.

Coffee Break Designer Series Paper Follow Up

Just a quick follow up to my post on Wednesday. In yesterday's blog hop, I shared my Coffee Cafe' Card version 2.0 where I mixed up the Coffee Break Designer Series Paper (DSP) to make a new card out of leftover packets from a previous card. I hope you enjoyed the blog hop. What a fabulous group of demonstrators I have found that love to share everything Stampin' Up!

As promised, today I am sharing my template and instructions for cutting the DSP to make this card.

The Crumb Cake card stock base is a standard A2, 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored at 4 1/4" (envelope size - 4-3/8” x 5-3/4”). The next layer is Soft Sky card stock, 4" x 5 1/4". This will be the base for layering our cut pieces and the new background for our cute, cute coffee cup embellishment.

Instructions for cutting DSP:

The original size of the DSP from the previous pack was 3 7/8" x 5". The first step is to cut 1/8" off both the short and long sides (Cuts #1, #2 grayed out with a Tranquil Tide Stampin' Write Marker, of course!). The new measurement of the DSP is 3 3/4" x 4 7/8". (Pardon my rudimentary drawings, but cute balloons, right?)

Next cut a 1" strip from the long side (Cut #3). You can chose either long side. I picked the left side to take advantage of the numbers along the edge for this picture.  Place both pieces together and cut at 3" (Cut #4) so that there is the nice, big piece of your "favorite" side of the DSP for the bottom left of your card front.

That is really all there is to it. However, if you are starting from all scraps, the sizes are (top left, clockwise, from the photo of the card, not the template.):

1. 1" x1 7/8'
2. 2 5/8" x 1 7/8"
3. 1" x 3"
4. 2 5/8" x 3"

Shameless plugs:

Last Chance for Retiring Products:
Select products from the 2018 occasions catalog and 2017-2018 annual catalog are retiring—and this is your last chance to get them before they are gone. IMPORTANT NOTE: A lot of the bundle products will carry over to the new 2018-2019 annual catalog, however they will no longer have the bundle pricing (10% discount). You can find more details in my online store. Use the shop now button, and be sure to use the April Hostess Code NE24A473. Do not use the hostess code if your order will exceed $150 so you will earn the Stampin' Rewards!

Stampin' Up! Color Refresh 2013-14

Stampin' Up! fulfills its promise and announces new colors and retirement of several favorites :< with its Color Refresh for the 2013-2014 catty. 

In 2010 we did a big color renovation and shared our plans for smaller color refreshes every three to five years to keep our colors on trend. Well it has been three years and we are excited to announce that the upcoming 2013-2014 annual catalog will include 10 new colors (most of which are returning In Colors from previous years)! We are welcoming back some of your favorites, moving some colors around, and introducing one brand-new color.

Retiring colors (10) include: Regal Rose, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red, Bravo Burgundy, Not Quite Navy, More Mustard and River Rock.  Get yours while supplies last. Plus, FREE shipping on EVERYTHING April 6-8 (excluding expedited orders)! That's right. There are no minimums or limits and all order types qualify (customer, workshop, online). Did we mention that the free shipping is on everything?

The one new color is called Smoky Slate. The nine returning In Colors as core colors are Bermuda Bay, Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Island Indigo, Pear Pizzazz, Pool Party (YIPPEE), Soft Sky, and Wisteria Wonder. New Color Kits will be available May 31 and FREE My Digital Studio download on June 1!!  Can't wait to show you more so stay tuned for details.

Sale-A-Bration was a huge success...I hope you were able to get one of each!

The April "Best of" stamp set is ...Butterflies.

 

These are clear mount stamp sets and you will need to purchase clear blocks separately.  With each Best of set, there is a collector's card and 25-year proof of purchase sticker.  Collect six stickers, and send it in to redeem a FREE set of your choice valued up to $14.95! Free sets must be redeemed no later than April 30, 2014.

Still working on the card kit for April and I hope to be able to post it this weekend.

Please be sure if you place your order online to select me as your demonstrator.  I really appreciate it.

Stamp on!
