Happy New Year!!!

This is Stampin Up's 25th year anniversary and you can feel their excitement and pride in the recent two publication, the Spring Mini Catalog and the Sale-a-Bration Brochure! 

Spring Mini Catalog – You can begin ordering from this catalog now until May 31. I don't know how SU does it… they constantly come out with new GREAT stuff!  Our January projects are focusing on the products from the mini catalog. 

Flowers:

Notice the new natural ribbon?  It's a perfect compliment to this boquet.  The flowers are made using shimmery white paper, embossed with white powder and then we'll water color.  The process is facinating.  I find myself making far too many flowers for just one card… you'll see!   We'll also use the new stamp set Secret Garden AND the perfectly fitting framelits!  NO CUTTING (Nancy!)… 

Valentines:

Valentines Day is right around the corner.  You will have your choice of a manly type card, or a girls card.  The man card gets a wood button and an extra oval layer.  The girl card gets a hand made flower and paper doily. 

Sale-A-Bration - begins January 22nd.  What a great time of year!  For every $50 you spend – Stampin Up let's you choose a free stamp set or item from the SAB brochure.  Spend $150 get 3 free items PLUS free pack of "glimmer paper" + $25 hostess dollars! Nice!  You should have received a brochure in the mail.  If not, they will be available during class.  This promotion ends March 22nd.

TWO Valentines Day Promotions: "Happy Valentine Heart Bundle" and "My Little Valentine" are exactly what we need to score on supplies for our Valentines Day projects.  The promotion runs January 3rd – 21st.  Details and photos of the promotions are on my website (left sidebar under Promotions).
