Happy New Year!

Hello Friends!  This week has been a busy one getting back into routines and jumping back into work. 


I am so grateful for holiday moments with my kids and hubby and grateful for releaxed days when I could play in my craft room.  









Just thought I'd share some photos of things I've made recently and the fun from the Appreciation Event I held on January 1st. 

This was a card I made over the holidays and shared on a recent weekly live video using the Peaceful view stamp set


I thought it could work as a lunar new year card. 

Check out the video replay HERE

I also had so much fun making this cute decoration which is perfect to add a little valentine cheer in your space. 
You could also drop some photos in the squares and make it a family photo page too! 



This is one of the possible projects you can make at the next Crafty Kit and Cozy Sips Class at Rouge River Brewing Company.

Product of the Month Bonus from Me!

I know I need to turn off my computer and focus on cleaning my house for the holidays but I just had to check in to make sure you knew about the Product of the Month program? 


It's an amazing program that involves new product every month at an incredible price! 
The December product is the True Blue Florals Designer Series Paper




I'll share more details to know below but here's a special bonus from me! 

When you place an order with me $100 or more, you'll receive an exclusive Product of the Month tutorial bundle! 
That's 12 tutorials featuring the product of the month to inspire you to create! 
I'm working with talented designers to bring you this bonus and you're going to want to shop every month so you don't miss any one of these monthly tutorial bundles! 
(p.s. my Team STIC stampers get the tutorial every month as a perk of being one of my team members!) 


For the month of December, here's a sneak peek of the tutorials you'll receive: 



You want to know a super easy way to earn this Tutorial bundle (and gain access to getting your True Blue paper for just $5?) 

Get the Virtual Card Retreat Kit! ($225)
Buying this kit gives you access to two days of cardmaking instruction geared toward those who want to learn, make wow cards and experience a super virtual experience. 
Don't forget the kit itself includes loads of product that you'll use during the Virtual card retreat experience. (like two stamp sets, dies, basic white paper pack and more!)
Check out the information and get your kit HERE



Okay, here's the nitty gritty details you need to know about the Product of the Month promotion: 

A New Product Every Month. We’ll release a new Product of the Month item every month. The Product of the Month items will be available at midnight sometime near the beginning of every month. (usually the first Tuesday of each month but keep an eye on the website to confirm)

Qualifying Amounts. You can purchase the Product of the Month item for only  $5 CAD when you spend $100 CAD or more in a single order. Your cart total MUST be $100 CAD or more at checkout to qualify. You cannot add the Product of the Month to your cart until you’ve reached the qualifying amount. If you use Stampin’ Rewards, coupons, or discount codes on your order and your cart amount falls below$100 CAD, you’ll need to add items in your cart to get the total at or above the qualifying amount again. If you reach the qualifying amount, add the Product of the Month to your cart, and the Product of the Month sells out before you’re able to check out, you won’t be able to complete your checkout until you remove the product from your cart.

Product of the Month Price. Currently the Product of the Month is $5 CAD. This is a special introductory price until April 30th. After that the Product of the month will be $7

Product of the Month Purchasing Limit. The Product of the Month is limited to one month’s product per Stampin’ Up! account. Additionally, the Product of the Month items are only available while supplies last, so once they’re all sold out, they’re gone for good. So, if you purchase the January Product of the Month, you cannot purchase another January Product of the Month. However, you could purchase the previous December Product of the Month or the new February Product of the Month, provided those products are available for purchase and you meet the qualifying amount once for December and again for February. If you don’t meet the qualifying amount in January until later in the month and the January Product of the Month sells out in the first two weeks, you won’t be able to purchase it. Product of the Month items that are still available for purchase after the month they’re released will have an “exclusive” product tag.

Stampin’ Up! Account. To participate in Product of the Month, you MUST have a Stampin’ Up! account. 

Ask Me!. Do you still have questions about Product of the Month? Check out the informational video on this page or reach out to me, your demonstrator! 



I'm so excited about the New product of the month program! 
I'm also excited to be able to offer you an exclusive thank you gift of tutorials featuring the product of the month when you place a $100 or more order with me. 

Thanks for dropping  in!

Last Chance! My favourite!

Just thought I'd drop in quickly to share the card I made yesterday.  I loved it so much I feel like I need to share it with the world (hence this blog post) 

It's using the Last Chance suite: Lights of Aurora

I love everything in this suite! 


Even though it was first featured in our September to December mini catalogue it's not just for Christmas! 
I could see so many ways to use it! 

You may have remembered the VIP party in September where I featured cards using this suite: 




Then yesterday I had fun playing again and created this beauty: (Check out the supply list at the bottom of this blog post) 


The dies for this suite are really incredible! Look at the details


You can watch the video replay of my live yesterday HERE
Did I mention this suite is Last Chance? 
Don't miss your chance to nab it! 
Especially while free shipping is on today until the 12th! 

And don't forget when you qualify for free shipping with your order of $100 or more, it also unlocks access to the Product of the month for December (True Blue Florals) for just $5! 


Here's a sample made with that gorgeous paper! 



And that's not all!!! 
Anyone who places a $100 or more order with me in December, will receive a tutorial bundle using the new True Blues exclusive paper! 
So it's a perfect excuse to shop for last chance items like the Lights of Aurora Suite, or crafty basics or favourites!
