MIA

Sorry to have been gone so long but life has been crazy the last year. I got engaged in November of 2008 and am now preparing for my July 11th wedding. I recently just dropped my demonstratorship (Is this even a word?) with Stampin' Up! because it really got too much for me and it just wasn't a priority anymore. Even though I've been out of it for a month now, I do miss it a bit because of the new catalog chatter but no time to really do classes now.

My hope is to continue sharing things I make. Of course, now it will be stuff I make for myself and not having to get ready for classes. I've joined a few swaps and will share my final projects here so I hope you'll come back.

Thanks for sticking with me for the last couple of years! It's been fun and I can't wait to see what the future holds as I continue the journey of life with a new companion.

Happy stamping!

Three Easy Payments Option for the Starter Kit
During economically challenging times, most of us tighten our budgets. Some expenditures that were once comfortable might now stretch a budget thin. We don't want anyone's efforts to budget wisely to become a barrier to joining Stampin' Up!, especially considering the wonderful benefits--personal and economical--being a demonstrator can bring. This is we've introduced a Three Easy Payments option for the Starter Kit. For a limited time, (March 13-April 30, 2009) with a partial initial payment, when you sign up to be a demonstrator, you can receive the Starter Kit right away and get your business running. Two subsequent monthly payments take care of the rest.

For more information about this, click here or click the Starter Kit link on the right under specials.

Thanks for sticking with me and I hope to be able share more.

Happy stamping!!

Retired Accessories List

I am so sorry I have been MIA. I had hoped to be better in keeping up my blog but have failed to do so.

A couple of things...

The new Spring-Summer catalog becomes available January 19th. If you haven't reserved your copy yet, do it today. The list of stamp sets that are retiring is located under Stampin' Up! specials. The last day to order will be January 18th but don't wait until then!

The retired accessories list is located below. Items on this retired accessories list will be available at regular price while supplies last or through January 18, whichever comes first.

Products are marked in red are no longer unavailable. If an item is unavailable, our supply is exhausted and the item can no longer be ordered. This list will be updated every day through January 18.

Visit this post for the most current list. Keep in mind that the status of any retiring product may change quickly based on demand.

With most catalogs, some accessories are completely retired while others are redesigned or reconfigured for the new catalog. Sometimes popular items are "retired" in their current packaging or style to come back with improved packaging or added product features. This year, no accessories are being reconfigured.
