Vibrant Vases

Today’s card is bright and cheerful – perfect as we just had some beautiful weather here in North Georgia and the early daffodils are starting to peak their heads out of the ground. However, today we’re back a normal winter day.

Today’s card is my February Thank You card that I created to send out to all of my stamping friends who place an order with me.

The two step stamp set, Vibrant Vases is easy to use and because of the bold images you won’t have a problem lining things up when stamping. It’s also perfect for the Stamparatus if you prefer to go that way.

And did you know that this stamp set coordinates with the Vase Builder Punch (147040) found in the Annual Catalog? That makes it a great way to make this punch even more versatile.

I’ve put together a quick video tutorial for you along with a PDF.

Flowering Desert

The Flowering Desert stamp set can be found in the Occasions Catalog and is perfect for those of us who love succulents and cactus.

These plants are beautiful and as some one without a green thumb perfect for me since I tend to forget to water my plants. lol. I remember as a child my Aunt who lives in Arizona gave us our first cactus and I can remember my mother’s excitement as the little babies came along. She would carefully transplant and our collection grew. I’m not so sure my little brother has the same memories tho since he had a run it with her favorite one summer. Ouch!

These cards today use the Flowering Desert stamp set – so why not check them out?

Piece of Cake

Today’s post highlights the Piece of Cake stamp set and Cake Builder Punch found in the Occasions Catalog. This is a great set for multiple occasions since the set contains sentiments for weddings in addition to the tradition birthday options.

Check out these wonderful cards using this set.

I love the way this first card uses our Sale-a-bration Foil Sheets (149712) that you can get for FREE for the cake stand.

And how about Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper used on these first two cards and clearly it’s a big hit.

Add our Sheet Music Background stamp (143967/143970) for a festive feel.

And how about this one for your next special event? It uses our Lace Dynamic Embossing Folder (148530) for a touch of elegance.

And finally this fun card done in Lovely Lipstick using our Oh My Stars Embossing Folder (143710) and NEW Rectangles Stitched Framelits Dies (148551).

Here’s an Important Update:

Stampin’ Up! just put out an announcement today that two punches that are in the NEW Occasions Catalog are about to be sold out for almost two months. If they are on your wish list, I want you to be able to get them while you still can.

Butterfly Duet Punch Item 148523

Ordering is only available until tomorrow, Friday, at Noon EST. It is currently on back order, but after tomorrow you won’t be able to order it for about two months.

This punch can be purchased separately or also as part of a bundle (item 148580).
When they sell out of the current inventory, the bundle won’t be available either until they are able to restock.

Cake Builder Punch Item 148525

This is currently in stock, but not expected to last more than two weeks.

This punch can be purchased separately or also as part of a bundle (item 150579).
When they sell out of the current inventory, the bundle won’t be available either.

The good news is both of these punches will be carrying over into the 2019 Annual Catalog. So you can purchase the stamp set and get the punches later if you miss the cut off.

*When you enter item numbers for either of these products, you will receive a pop-up notification asking if you would like to be notified via email when they are back in stock. This will allow you to find out immediately when the status changes for these items and they are again available for purchase.

Organdy Ribbon – Sale-a-bration option turned off

The Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack (item 149623) may be one of our most popular Sale-A-Bration items ever. It’s been so popular, in fact, that it has exceeded our product forecast and sold out in our North American markets. We have a shipment coming in to fulfill back orders, but because this item has been in such high demand, we have been forced to turn off the Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack.

Once back orders have been fulfilled, a second shipment will arrive at the beginning of March, which will allow us to turn on this item again; it will be available while supplies last only.

We’re so sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Piece of Cake (*148610)

Paper: Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper (148554)

We got an Announcement From Stampin’ Up! yesterday:

The Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack (item 149623) may be one of our most popular Sale-A-Bration items ever. It’s been so popular, in fact, that it has exceeded our product forecast in our North American markets. We have a shipment coming in to fulfill back orders, but because this item has been in such high demand, we have been forced to turn off the Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack for ordering. Unfortunately, this initial shipment will help us fulfill only orders that have already been placed. Once back orders have been fulfilled, a second shipment will arrive at the beginning of March, which will allow us to turn on this item again; it will be available while supplies last only. We’re so sorry for the inconvenience.
