Global SU Share Fair Facebook Event going on now

March 18, 2023Leave a comment

There are a few presentations left in my Global SU Share Fair Facebook Live Demonstration Event for this weekend. All videos from this event and the past events for this annual catalog year are available on replay!

This group gives you lots of ideas to re-create using your stamping supplies. It’s a great perk for being on my Super Awesome Stampers Team (which is a person that signed up to be a demonstrator under me) or being a customer of mine.

We have created a pdf of all the projects demonstrated this weekend which you can earn with any size order using the host code HPC3B4MX. You also get a copy if you are on my Super Awesome Stampers team, another nice perk!

Offer ends March 23rd so place an order or join my team now to get the pdf!

We have a few extra special posts in the Global SU Share Fair Facebook group during April to celebrate our 3 year anniversary of collaborations! Looking forward to seeing what my fellow demonstrate create to celebrate!

Paper Crafting Blog Hop Queen Bee My Favorite Bundle

March 15, 2023March 15, 202315 Comments

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the globe. We have a wide array of projects created with current catalog products to share with you featuring our favorite bundles. You may have arrived from Traci Gardner’s blog. Hop all the way around until you get back to me so you see it all!

Queen Bee bundle is my current favorite as I love the shabby chic look that can be created with the stamps. I am also a honey beekeeper;) I opted for a repetitive pattern for this design, using Rustic Metallic dots to accentuate the floral springs.

The inside is decorated too…

Thanks for hopping with us each month. Now click here to hop to Tracy Held’s blog to see what fun project she has created.

Here is a list of the hop stops:

The Latest and Greatest News from the Stampin’ Up! home office is that a Color Refresh is planned with the introduction of the new annual catalog on May 2nd. We will know towards the end of March just exactly what colors are retiring and what the new colors are when the digital catalog is released to demonstrators. It’s a great perk for being on my Super Awesome Stampers team to receive early access to all catalogs!

Here is the marketing info SU provided:

We’re all about creativity and sharing what we love. And that means providing a compelling selection of high-quality craft supplies in coordinating colors and designs. We’re always working to not only meet trends but set them. That means evaluating and even refreshing our current products—and this year we’re refreshing our complete color collection!

You’ll find some new friends and returning favorites among our Brights, Neutrals, Regals, and Subtles. And you won’t want to miss our new 2023–2025 In Colors. We hope you’re as excited as we are to start crafting with these fresh new colors!

I’ll let you know as soon as I know what is retiring. Please be advised that all products pertaining to the color refresh are will supplies last. So if you are missing a refill ink bottle or what to stock up on your favorite colored cardstock, do that now! Here is a link that will zoom you to my online click here to experience the zoomies

Looking forward to some fresh color!
