My Stampin Friends… (part 5 ~ Stampin’ Friends)

So much news, so many updates and a lot of fun filled days on the horizon!!

First, here is a recap of where we’ve been, and what is still coming:
1.    Planner Friends Read Here
2.    Crafty Friends Read Here
3.    My Handmade Shoppers ~ Read Here
4.    My Stampin’ Up! Shoppers ~ Today, read below
5.    My Giveaway Subscribers and Winners!! ~ Still to come…

Bonus Days are Ending Soon ~ August 3, 2020, is your LAST DAY to Earn Bonus Bucks! Remember this is like FREE money! The concept is similar to Kohl’s Cash, you earn $5 in Bonus Bucks for every $50 you spend. Collect your Bonus Bucks Coupons and redeem them in August for anything you want!! See full details here.

New Website Coming ~ Stampin’ Up! has been promising a new Demonstrator website for a while now and it looks like it will be ready to launch soon! I cannot wait to share it with you ~ so you will be the first to know as soon as it is complete! So exciting!

Holiday Catalog Coming Soon ~ August 4, 2020, the Brand New Holiday Mini Catalog Launches. 

Paper Share Sign Ups are Coming ~ In honor of the new Holiday Mini Catalog launch I will be preparing a fabulous Paper Share for you. Sign ups will be ready soon and you will have the opportunity to receive ALL of the amazing new paper at a discounted price!! Stay tuned and get ready to sign up. You won’t want to miss this share. I’ve seen the new designer series papers and they are probably the best ever!

Card Swap ~ When is the last time you participated in a Card Swap? Or maybe you’ve never tried it? This is a completely free event (you just pay for mailing your cards to me for swapping.) If you’re not familiar, it is something that Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators do all the time. I thought it would be fun to open it up to EVERYONE. So, anyone who would like to participate is welcome!

The concept is simple. Everyone makes 10 cards (all the same.) You mail them to me, I sort them and then I will mail back to you a packet of 10 cards that were all handmade by your fellow participants. So you will receive 10 beautifully handmade cards from friends around the Country. If this sounds like fun to you, be on the look out for the sign up in late August.

So, that is a LOT of Good Stuff!

Also, if you missed the Brand New Annual Catalog Release you can still download a copy here. Just click on the photo of the new catalog in the right sidebar to begin your download. 196 pages of goodness is waiting for you!

Launched in June, I have been ordering some of the new stuff and it is just amazing. I am committing to share with you all of the New Colors, New Stamps and New Ideas I’ve been playing around with.

I will also be sharing upcoming Special Events, Online Tutorials, Special Sales, Product Giveaways and Discounts unique to members of my newsletter, and all the best Stamping news as it breaks. So you will be seeing a lot more good stuff in the stamping world!!

Keep Livin’ Lite!

HSN’s 24 Hour Craft Day Event

by In Card Making, Crafty Things, Cricut, DIY, Greeting Cards, HSN, Organization, Planner Addicts, Shopping, Stamping Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Starts TODAY ~ 10pm EST or 7pm PDT, July 15

If you’re not familiar with shopping HSN.com (Home Shopping Network) well, I have some great news for you! It seems back in the day, televised shopping channels were more of an annoyance, silly items that only your grandmother would consider buying. Over the years I’ve found much respect and LOVE for HSN.com and QVC.com. Sister stations that have evolved into something quite fun, with amazing prices on products I love! Did they truly evolve or am I just closer to my grandmother’s age? Hmmmm…

Anyhow, every few months, it seems quarterly now, HSN hosts an amazing 24 Hour Craft Day event. They have great prices, exclusive bundles you cannot find anywhere else and some of our favorite and most popular brands for crafting.

HSN 24 Hour Craft Event

Here are some highlights:

  • There is always a Today’s Special that is the best price and usually a bundle of great products.
  • The Today’s Special is usually brand new to the market and you can only purchase through HSN, the manufacturer’s haven’t even released the items for sale yet. So this is your very first chance to get your hands on Brand New Products.
  • HSN offers Flex-Pay, which is like “layaway” with no interest or fees and the item ships to you immediately, while you can make payments over time, often up to 6 months.
  • During their 24 Hour Craft Day Events you save a TON on shipping!!! Anything you order will be shipped for $5. That’s it. Even if you submit several different orders, as many items as you like, everything ships for one flat rate of $5 (assuming you complete your orders within the hours of the event.)

HSN features some of the Best Brands including:

  • Cricut
  • Anna Griffin
  • Crafter’s Companion
  • Art Bin
  • Brother
  • Copic
  • Diamond Dotz
  • Fiskars
  • Heidi Swapp
  • Janome
  • Silhouette
  • Sizzix
  • Spectrum Noir
  • Spellbinders
  • Tim Holtz
  • We R Memory Keepers
  • Xyron and MORE…
HSN Craft Event Brands

Highlights for July 16, 2019

Today’s Special is scheduled to be a Cricut Maker Bundle with all of the NEW ADAPTIVE TOOLS we’ve all been waiting for! The new Adaptive Tools (only available for the Maker machines and do not work with the Cricut Explorer machines or previous models) are:

  1. The Wavy Blade
  2. Debossing Tip
  3. Engraving Tip
  4. Perforation Blade

Check Out the New Adaptive Tools for the Cricut Maker Here

Crafter’s Companion Offers a Free Booklet

Crafter’s Companion is always a hit on HSN Craft Day and Sara Davies shows up throughout the event, I don’t think she sleeps, and runs through an amazing array of new products which tend to sell out quickly.

They even offer a Free Online Booklet as a Shopping Tool featuring the products available during this HSN Craft Day Event. Download a copy here:

Crafter's Companion HSN Craft Day Event

Take a nap after work tonight, stay up late and get ready to shop some of the best new products, exclusive bundles and great pricing tonight. Or just set your DVR and plan to shop before you leave for work tomorrow LOL

Enjoy your shopping! Leave a comment and share what you couldn’t live without and what magically landed in your shopping cart!

As always… Be Thankful, Be Kind, and Keep Livin’ Lite!

Beach Happy

by In Card Making, Crafty Things, DIY, Greeting Cards, Occasions Catalog 2019, Stampin' Up!, Stamping Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , 2 Comments
Beach Happy Larris Livin Lite

Today I am sharing a card I made using the super fun Beach Happy stamp set from Stampin’ Up! I just adore this stamp set and thought I would even share it with Kylie’s International Blog Highlights for April 2019. You can find this stamp set in the 2019 Occasions Catalog pg 37.

The theme is “Encouragement” so I used the sentiment Wishing You Sunny Days, included in the Beach Happy set.

The colors I chose were Lovely Lipstick, Powder Pink, Soft Sea Foam with a tiny bit of Crumb Cake. I used some glycerin with my sponge daubers to blend the background using the Soft Sea Foam for the sky and some Crumb Cake for the beach sand.

I also pulled in the Seaside embossing folder for the look of waves on the layer of Soft Sea Foam cardstock.

So, what do you think?

If you like this note of encouragement as much as I do, please Vote for Me here in this awesome International Blog Highlight. If I receive enough votes I may be able to participate in Kylie’s upcoming Blog Hop!! Whoot Whoot!

Vote for my Beach Happy Card if you LOVE it!

Feel free to email me with any questions and if you would like to shop my Stampin’ Up! store you can click here!

Hope to see your vote today and I will catch you in the next post!
