May Stamp-A-Stack (SAS)

Woohoo, we have a new Annual Stampin’ Up Catalog, a new Color Refresh, and a new Stamp-A-Stack (SAS) Class this month, so it’s a great time to be crafting and creating!!  Here are this month’s new card designs using some of the new stamps, dies, and Designer Series Papers (DSP) available now! 

·                Each SAS set is pre-cut and ready to assemble, includes printed color instructions, premium SU envelopes, scored card bases, and all the Foam and glue dots you’ll need per card. (*Die-cutting/embossing option below.)

·                For in-person classes, it is recommended that you bring a tube of green Tombow Multi-Purpose liquid glue for those fine die cuts and permanence plus a roller-type adhesive for neatness and speed.

·                Making 3 or more different Design Choices or more than 12 cards may require only making one completed sample of the card, then stamp/emboss/die cut the other parts and complete your cards later at home if needed.

·                Many supplies are limited, and orders will be taken in the order they are received. (If a substitution is needed, I will contact you first.)

#1 Beautiful Balloons

·                Sessions will be limited to a minimum of 2 and maximum of 8 attendees. I will try to space you apart as much as possible. Please do a Rapid COVID test on the day before you come, masks are optional if everyone present is COVID negative.

• Please bring your own Big Shot/die cutting machine (if you have one) for your personal use to speed things up and reduce the need to share mine. 

  

  #2 Zany Zoo

DESIGN CHOICES: (if multiple paper patterns are shown, ALL are included in that card choice.)

1.    Beautiful Balloons – a spring collection of colors to suit many of your birthday needs! Shaped dimensional balloons plus a clear acetate “window” with gold accents in a unique design makes this card really fun and special! (Note: you will need a roller-type adhesive or double-sided tape to complete this card.)

#3 Sending Smiles

2.    Zany Zoo –the crazy fun animals celebrating “you” is perfect for ages, both the young and young-at-heart! These cards will bring a smile to everyone, sender and receiver alike! (Animals are partially colored in the DSP, see catalog pg. 132)

3.    Sending Smiles – These are really versatile landscape-gatefold cards where you can match the embossed white panel (birthday, celebrate, hello, or thanks) with the many stamped sentiment choices available, it’s up to you!

4.    Gingko Branch –Elegant and subtle in slate gray, white, and gold, this Easel Card can stand up for display to be admired after it’s opened. Texture, glitz, one gorgeous die cut, and simple to make, it’s got everything! Update: this has been by far the most popular card choice, and the original DSP's are no longer available. Alternate papers shown are the same coloring and can be used for either top or bottom panels. 

#4 w/alternate DSP

Hooray, it's one of my personal favorite promotions!  On Wed., April 19th, Stampin' Up is  offering FREE shipping on all orders subtotaling $75 or more!  It's like getting another 10% off of your order, and if you're getting Last Chance bargains already, that adds up to a really sweet deal!

Catalog Price increases

As with so many things these days, the prices in the Stampin' Up catalog will be increasing on many items when the new Annual Catalog goes live on May 2.  There will also be a "color refresh" occurring, with some current colors being retired and new ones revealed in addition to the new 5 In-Colors that are introduced each year, (which generally have a two year lifespan).  I'll know more on Mar. 29 when Demos are shown a "Color Reveal". 

Below are the categories where the price increases will occur, so if you'd like to stock up on your favorites now, do so quickly while the inventory is available. Retiring colors will only be available while the current supplies last.  

If you order, please use the current Host Code GGVJR4WF until after Monday 3/27.  I will post a new Code on the stamp blog when that one expires. 

Many thanks for your support!
