I'm really sorry this is so late!!

I missed Saturday. :/

I have LOTS to share with you, so this could be a long post!

1. Exciting news!
2. Details on NEW exclusive products--November only/while supplies last
3. Sad/unavailable product news
4. Birthday offer

Ok, so first, here's my BIG NEWS!!

I found out Thursday that I was ranked in the top 200 US Demonstrators Overall!

I am #143 out of 33,000!!!!!

I am in total shock!!!

There was a reveal Thursday, which I honestly kinda forgot was happening.

But at the same time, I honestly wouldn't have looked for my name!

One of my new local demo friends messaged me and said, "MY FRIEND IS A ROCKSTAR!!!"

My response: "Uuuhh thank you???"

(I thought maybe she watched my Facebook Live! and really enjoyed it or something!)

She said, "You'll see." So I went looking.

Still in shock that I found my name!

So I have to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! to all my customers, my Dazzling Demos Team and my family--especially My Love, of course--for ALL YOUR SUPPORT, encouragement, hard work (for some), and orders, too! ;)

I APPRECIATE YOU!!!

Obviously, I could not have done this on my own!

So THANK YOU!! SO MUCH!!

2 of my Dazzling Demos Team and I are leaving for Orlando OnStage Live! this coming week to celebrate our achievements and have fun with thousands of other Demonstrators!

We're ALL celebrating Stampin' Up!'s 30th Anniversary!

We'll get new product, the Occasions and Sale-a-Bration Catalogs, training and SWAPS!!!!

CAN'T WAIT!!!

Stampin' Up! has an exclusive suite of products available November 1-30--or while supplies last!

Both stamp sets are photopolymer AND they both coordinate with the Snowfall Thinlits! :)

Here's a video Stampin' Up! made for us:

Here's another sample I made:

Here's all the links for all the products:

Snow is Glistening 149742 $21.00

Happiness Surrounds 149744 $17.00

Snowfall Thinlits 149692 $39.00

Snowflake Trinkets 149620 $8.00

White Velvet Sheets 149619 $5.00

Don't miss out on these amazing products!!

They're only available THIS MONTH...OR WHILE SUPPLIES LAST!!

SPEAKING OF WHILE SUPPLIES LAST....

Unfortunately, there are a few Holiday Catalog items that are NO LONGER AVAILABLE TO ORDER. At all.

The popularity of these far exceeded Stampin' Up!'s forecasting.

If you ALREADY ordered the items--even if they are on back order--you will still receive them; but I still have no set time of when they will arrive.

Here's the list of products NO LONGER AVAILABLE:

147816: Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper 
147890: Festive Farmhouse Elements 
147811: Santa’s Workshop Enamel Elements

As another option for ordering Designer Paper, Stampin' Up! is making the (Hostess Incentive) Dashing Along DSP available to order:

149903 $11.00

 I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused!

BIRTHDAY OFFER

That's right--this month is my birthday!

AND I'm turning 50!!

So I'm celebrating and offering you a deal!

EVERY order that is at least $50 in November will be entered into a random drawing for a $50 Stampin' Up! shopping spree from me!

ALSO, if you apply my hostess code Z7R6K6VF to your online order, you'll receive a free package of Basic Rhinestone Jewels!

Free items will be available or mailed early in December.

Good luck winning a shopping spree!!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Yesterday in my Facebook Live! I showcased new products that will be available ONLY THIS MONTH--November 1-30.

They're amazing!!

I meant to share everything here today, but I ran out of time.

So here's the card I made on the Live!

And here's yesterday's Live!

I'll share more stuff for closeups later.

Have an amazing rest of your day!!

Hey stampers!

I had an extra Facebook Live! yesterday--JUST because Stampin' Up! is getting ready for Christmas with an adorable Christmas kit.

As I said in my Live!, I have NO IDEA what's inside--it's always a surprise--but if the BOX is this cute......

C'mon!

You'll just need to subscribe by November 10.

Click here to subscribe.

So, since I don't have a clue what November's kit will be, I showed September and October's.

Here's the quick SU! Paper Pumpkin video for September:

And here are a couple alternate ideas I made with the leftover supplies, a little DSP and some Notecards & Envelopes:

I'll show the October kit sometime next week.

Have a great night!

Be safe!!

Happy Monday!!

How was World Card Making Day for YOU???

I had a blast!!

But I don't have pics to share with you yet.

It's been kinda rainy for taking pics of projects.

Hopefully I'll have some for you tomorrow.

TODAY--I'm sharing some videos of product in the Holiday Catalog.

We've had the catalog for awhile, but YOU know sometimes you just have to see it in action!

Grab your coffee or your popcorn and enjoy!!

Below is the kit that is NON-orderable right now--BECAUSE it's so popular!!!

I just finally put MY kit together this weekend, and it's ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!

It should be back in stock and orderable the end of this month, I believe.

And I'm having my kit class the end of November!

RSVP here:    morning class        evening class

So this video is just to tempt you a little bit. ;)

Have a fabulous week!!!

Hey stampers!

My Facebook Live! was yesterday, and I featured the Sincerely Santa (tags) Project Kit!

It's SO MUCH FUN and includes a cute tin to hold all your tags!

You get to make 6 of each of these!!

(I realized the color in the pic is a little funny...the metallic tree is silver AND all metallic snowflakes are silver as well.

However, bottom middle IS GOLD metallic.)

I'm having a morning and evening class with this kit TUESDAY, 10/30.

RSVP by 10/20:    morning class        evening class

Here are a couple other things I did with the kit and coordinating stamp set:

Here's my Live! video:   

You might wanna watch it to see a sneak peek at my Christmas Stamp Camp, too! (Saturday, 10/20, 10am)

REGISTRATION DEADLINE IS THIS SATURDAY!!!

RSVP HERE

Have an amazing day!!

Just wanted to give a quick bit of info...

There are a few items in NON-orderable status right now and the Timeless Tidings Project Kit is dropping there on Monday.

Stampin' Up! occasionally has items that are COMPLETELY POPULAR--FAR BEYOND their extensive forecasting!

When this happens and the leadtime to get them back in the warehouse is too great, it causes huge back orders that are EXTREMELY costly--and frustrating to all involved.

In these situations, SU! makes the hard decision to drop the item to NON-Orderable Status.

That means--until that status is lifted--you are UNABLE TO ORDER; the computer won't even take the order for that item.

THESE items are already NON-Orderable:

Santa's Workshop Memories & More Card Pack

estimated availability: Oct 22

Santa's Workshop  You Make It Collection

estimated availability: TBD (other items in the collection are back ordered) 

Chicken Wire Embellishments

(Yes, Lisa, YOURS came in!)

estimated availability: Oct 1 

This Kit is dropping there Monday:

Timeless Tidings Project Kit

not expected for at least 30 days

This is an all-inclusive kit, and I've heard many demonstrators say this is the BEST KIT SU! has ever offered!

I have a Class scheduled around this November 27.

If you want to come and are ok with my ordering your kit (on your card) NOW, please RSVP NOW.

RSVP, 11/27, morning class

RSVP, 11/27, evening class

Then we can get our names on the back order list.

If you wanna wait until it comes back up for good, that's fine. 

Here's the video for this kit:

Have a great day!

Hey stampers--

I've been featuring the Notes of Kindness Card Kit on Facebook this week.

It's another amazing month of deals!!

I'll share in a sec, but first I have to share a fun event!

We had Shannon West, our Demonstrator Development Manager from SU! visit us last night for a simple Meet & Greet.

I went to a dinner beforehand with other leaders in the area; somewhere there will be pics of that, but I don't have them yet.

It was a simple, fun night to get to know Shannon and other demos in the area!

Here's Shannon and all of my team that could make it:

Arlene, Diane, Nadine, Shannon, me

I had to share a story with Shannon, because SHE'S the one that made the adorable chick card at OnStage (with the honeycomb embellishment belly?) and showed us her technique of how you could mail it?

You know--the one I copied at a Hostess Appreciation Party a few years ago?

She enjoyed hearing my story--but I didn't have her laughing/crying for 10 minutes like she had me when she did it! ;)

When Todd heard who our DDM was/who we were meeting with (the chick story), he said, "oh SHE'LL be fun." 

I have a sample pics from there, too, but I'll share those later.

Before I share my project with you, I have fabulous news!

Yesterday I earned enough points for NEXT YEAR'S CRUISE to the Greek Isles!!!

SO EXCITING!!!

Thank you so much for YOUR part in helping me earn it!!

And.......we are 33 days from our Alaskan Cruise!

It seems so unreal!

Ok, so back to the real world. ;)

I had a fun New Catalog Open House last week!

As promised, we used the amazing Broadway Birthday bundle--in colors specific to the suite:

We used the thinlits a little differently here--simply embossing with it for one piece, in addition to cutting another one out....

Here's the thinlit we used, along with the outside frame that's cut out.

(We stamped the inside white piece for our card.)

We EMBOSSED the Basic Black cardstock with the new Embossing Mats.

So the black frame has embossed circles rather than circles cut out of it (like the white frame).

We cut around the outside frame with our Paper Snips.

Here's a video to show you how it's done--with the new Embossing Mats from Stampin' Up!:

(It makes our thinlits so versatile!!)

I have one more quick mention for you.

We ALSO used the Stamparatus for this card--the dots on WISH.

It's so great!!

But I have to be honest that I really don't think the Stamparatus is needed for it!

WISH is so big, and the set is photopolymer, so it's pretty easy to line up!

Here's my supply list for this card:

Broadway Birthday Photopolymer Bundle [148321] $41.25

Lemon Lime Twist 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [144245] $8.50

ps: Does everyone realize the Fourth of July is a week from today????

That's just shocking to me!!

Somehow I keep thinking there's another week in there!

With that in mind, our next Craft the Night Away is also next week: Saturday, July 7, 6pm-midnight. RSVP HERE. 

As I mentioned last week, the bundle that REALLY caught my eye in the catalog this year was part of the Broadway Bound Suite (pg 68-69.)

I mean who can resist this page???

I keep thinking that's Melon Mambo; but it's Lovely Lipstick.

Here's what I did with the set and a little of the DSP:

Remember I was telling you (in person, at least) about using the Stamparatus to stamp thank you, thank you, thank you?

Well, I used it here for my WISH.

SO MUCH FUN!!!
