Saying Goodbye to Some Favorites

I want to take a moment and thank you for your continued support of my small business. It is truly appreciated, especially during this time of COVID 19 where we are unable to gather in person for classes and events. I’m not sure what my business will look like in the coming months, but know that I am here and working on ideas to serve you as best as I can. Part of that is trying to keep you updated on products and coming up with creative ways to do online classes and events as well as videos and Facebook lives. Make sure you are following my Stamp With Anita Facebook Page so you don’t miss out on anything.

One of the most exciting updates – a NEW Stampin’ Up! CATALOG COMING SOON!

Every year we have to say goodbye to some of our favorites to make room for the new.
Stampin’ Up! announced last week the products that are retiring by June 2nd (available only while supplies last). If you have favorites on the retiring list you will want to order them as soon as possible as you know, some sell out quickly.

Take a look today & shop with me by clicking HERE
Use Host Code: ZTUMVHSXwhen your order is under $150.00. It’s not needed if your order is over $150.00 (before tax & ship so you receive Host Rewards). While your’e shopping the retired list make sure you check out the clearance rack for more last chance deals.

Some Retiring Product Tips…

Many of the retiring items are discounted. YAY!
Stampin’ Blends are NOT going away- Stampin’ Blends will only be available as duo’s in the new catalog. Scoop up the single blends in the colors you love now.
BUNDLES – not all bundles are retiring – instead they will just no longer be available at a 10% saving bundle. (Check the **** at the bottom the PDF”s to see what products are being repackaged, offered separately).
All retiring products are WHILE SUPPLIES last – don’t wait.

RETIRED LIST – Annual Catalog
RETIRED LIST – Spring Catalog

I cannot wait to share the NEW Catalog that will be available June 3rd! I have seen it and Stampin’ Up! has knocked it out of the park!!! It truly is one of their best catalogs to date!

How to Get a New Catalog…
All my current stamp club members and anyone who has shopped with me in the last 6 months will automatically receive a complimentary catalog from me shipped via Stampin’ UP! in early May.

Please make sure I have your most current address.
If you have not shopped in 6 months or are new to my mailing and do not have a demonstrator you work with and would like a catalog please contact me via email right away with your mailing address.

Do you wish you could see the new catalog early, and order early? Plus get an additional 20% off everything? I haven’t paid full price in 17 years! I’m happy to answer any questions you may have. Join my team today: CLICK HERE to learn more!

As I mentioned, I am working on online class ideas as well as kit ideas that you can do at home. I also want to make use of this space and my Facebook Page more. If you have ideas or suggestions you’d like to share with me I encourage you to do so.

Together, we will get through this. Being creative during this time is more important than ever. Stay home and stay safe.

💖 Once again, thank you for your continued support and I’m looking forward to the day we can gather and stamp together in my studio.

Blessings and Happy Stamping! Anita

Above the Clouds

One of my favorite new stamps sets from the 2019 Stampin’ Up! Catalog is the 2-step stamp set “Above the Clouds” (#149404). I am not only drawn to the beautifully hand drawn images but also the inspirational words it contains.

“Let you dreams soar.”
“We rise by lifting others.”
“Life is a beautiful ride.”
“Hi, friend”
“You’re off to great places!”

Who wouldn’t want to receive those beautiful words of encouragement! And I also love that this stamp set has a coordinating punch! “Hot Air Balloon Punch” (#149520). AND… you can get them as a BUNDLE including the stamp set and the punch and save! (#151135).

The “Above The Clouds” stamp set along with the “See a Silhouette” DSP (#149443) bring a fun artsy feel to these cards. After applying a simple ink color wash on the background and stamping the images I gave the background some texture with the “Subtle 3D Embossing Folder” (#151775). If you look closely you will see that I also ran the strip of DSP through the same folder. This technique really does make this DSP look like it’s painted on an artist canvas.

And no card is complete without accessories. I finished up by adding “Pearlized Doilies” (#146936), a small folded piece of “Granny Apple Green Textured Weave Ribbon (#146920), “Silver Metallic Thread” (#138402) and “Rhinestone Basic Jewels” (#144220).
