How to Reserve yours?
You’ll need to email me ([email protected]) or call me (706 754-7124) to hold your spot ASAP, since there isn’t a lot of time before I need to place the order on May 3rd so you get yours as soon as possible after the catalog goes live.
EMAIL me directly at [email protected] with your information listed below to save your spot in the share: (Note: For multiple shares and/or swatch books – contact me for a shipping quote… Flat Rate packaging can hold quite a bit).

When your shares/swatch book order fills, I will email a PayPal invoice for payment process (around April 26th). I will then place my order with Stampin’ Up! once payment is received for the shares/swatch book.
PayPal is easy — and a PayPal account is not required to make your payment. Just an email address and credit/debit card. When you receive your PayPal invoice by email, you can choose to pay using your PayPal funds or by a credit/debit card. Simply follow their instructions to make your payment via the method that is most convenient for you. It should be simple!

Are you big on games? I can’t remember a time when I didn’t play cards or board games. As a child my sister and I played Chinese Checkers for hours, as a teenager Gin Rummy and Sheepshead became a way to keep busy while we waiting for the meets to begin and later on the weekends when visiting friends in college as we watched the newest fad MTV, something everyone could agree on in the common room. As an adult I loved to play games with my own children, our daughter has been come quite a shark at Gin and was the only one who could best my Mother-in-law. How about you? Do you have have fond memories of playing games too?
Today’s cards all highlight games and were stamped with our retiring stamp set Game On (152646).
This first card is a fun easel fold using a classic color combination of Basic Black and Reeal Red.
And this next card is done in Rich Razzleberry with a pop of gold coming from the Metallic Pearls (146282) used on the sentiment that has been punched out using the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch (152883).
And finally this classic Basic Gray and Very Vanilla chess card
The Game On set is only available until May 3rd or while supplies last since it is part of the Retirement List and then it will be gone forever. So why not check it out today?
And as promised here is another sneak peak at the
2021 In Colors Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen
Let’s take a look at these 2 new greens that are part of our 2021-2023 In Colors. I really like them by themselves, and love them teamed up together! The colors this year I think have a subtle grey undertone which gives them a more vintage feel. Check out the Soft Succulent here with some of our other greens.
This next group shows you our 2020 In Color Just Jade for a comparison of the 2 together
Totally different, right? Which is why I’m excited about this addition of green. And now for the Evening Evergreen. I’ve given you a grouping with our darker greens for comparison.
I think you are really going to like the Evening Evergreen and think it will make a nice addition to our more neutral colors for basic stamping too.
So what do you think? Like the new colors? If you missed yesterday’s post you’ll want to check it out since I gave you a look at first two In Colors Fresh Freesia and Polished Pink. And don’t forget and make sure to stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing the last of the 2021-2023 In Colors Pale Papaya with you and some more comparisons too.

If you have a hard time creating for the guys in your life the Well Suited Suite might be just the thing you need to have for creating great cards. While the Handsomely Suited stamp set (154444) is great for the guys the Suit & Tie Dies (154322) that are part of the Bundle (156240) are great for creating all kinds of projects – the choices are endless simply by mixing and matching.
Today I’ll be sharing some cards for the guys in our lives using this suite. This first one uses the fun Well Suited Designer Series Paper (154562) for a fun fold birthday card.
And this next one creates a great card for Father’s Day that’s been done in the classic color combination of red and black.
And this final card uses the Classic Label Punch (Retiring 141491) for the sentiment. Can you see the added texture in the background?
The Absolutely Argyle 3D Embossing Folder (Retiring 151590) was used to create some texture. Choose the Suite Collection (155983) and you’ll get everything in the suite in one easy number that includes a 10% discount on the Handsomely Suited Bundle too.

2021 Annual Catalog Sneak Peek
The NEW Annual Catalogs are in the mail and are starting to arrive. If you are a current customer of mine you’ll be getting yours soon. So today I thought I’d share my unboxing for some of the great items I was able to PreOrder from the Annual Catalog.
2021 Annual Catalog PreOrder Sneak Peek Video
Of course, the In Colors are always my favorite place to start looking when I get the catalog – nothing like new colors! And this is the first year I think I’ve LOVE them all, typically there is one color that takes me a bit to fall in love with, but not this year. Here is a preview.
Fresh Freesia, Polished Pink, Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen, and Pale Papaya!!!
There is nothing like them in our color families – so over the next few days I thought I’d share some color comparisons with you. Today I’ll be highlighting Fresh Freesia and Polished Pink for you.
Fresh Freesia is a lovely shade of purple that will bring a smile to your face – I just love purple and am so happy we have this option. I’ve included the retiring Purple Posy for you in this first comparison so you can see its nothing like the Purple Posy that is retiring.
And Polished Pink is cheerful and a perfect shade of pink! A bit softer feeling than our Magenta Madness and Melon Mambo, but bolder and more of a true pink feeling than our Flirty Flamingo
So what do you think? Like the new colors?
Don’t forget and make sure to stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing the 2021-2023 In Colors Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent with you and some more comparisons too.
