In like a lion...

 I wouldn't say the weather was particularly "lion-like" yesterday, but it wasn't as nice as Friday or Saturday.  It continues to be bipolar in my area with spring rains in the forecast for later in the week.

Check out the new products this month (starting 3/2) under the "Secret Menu," aka Online Exclusives.  I'll be showing some of the new items in my Feature Friday/Spotlight Saturday videos.

As always, new Kits Collection products are also available.  You can find them under the SPECIALS tab here, or by clicking the KITS icon on my website shopping page.


The March Product of the Month is a stamp set called "Notes of Spring."  It features a number 2-step stamps along with several sentiments.  Remember:  the POTM is only available while supplies last!

COMING SOON!

It's time for me to order the next catalog.  If you are interested in a paper copy, be sure to let me know ASAP so that you can receive it in a timely manner. 

Speaking of catalogs, the style and content is being revised so that there will be three issues, one every four months, with each one containing BOTH core SU! products and new seasonal offering.  The schedule is essentially the same as it was with one core and two mini catalogs, only the content will change.
  • May-August
  • September-December
  • January-April
April/May marks the end/beginning of the Stampin' Up! years.  The 2024-2026 In Colors will soon retire.  If you need any of these items to complete your collection or to use in projects, be sure to order them now.  Some items are already listed as "low inventory."  I have created a shopping cart that includes all of the 2024-26 In Color core items.  If you would like it emailed to you, just let me know.


Surprise!  The 2026-28 In Colors have been announced early, and with exciting news:  The ink pad style is changing to the magnetic style we all loved at CTMH!!  


Next year (2027) there will be a color re-vamp and the full transition to the new style.  Just a note:  the current style pads and new style are different ink formulas.  So if you purchase, or own for example, Misty Moonlight, you need the current ink refill.  The refills for the magnetic, felt pads won't be compatible.

If you are interested in a Color Club featuring the new 2026-28 colors, let me know.  I tried this before but there wasn't much interest.  Prices, etc. depend mostly on shipping.  If everyone's local, I can split packs of cardstock, do ribbon samples. etc.  Not enough interest in your area?  Talk to your friends and see if you can start a local group!

Things are thawing!!

 Is it warming up at your house?  It has been nice enough to go out without looking like an Eskimo!  The weatherman still says we're in a drought though, despite the higher snowfall.

Just announced:  three days of FREE shipping!!

REMINDER:  Use your bonus coupons this month!


There's another amazing Join Special this month!  Remember joining doesn't require selling.  Several of my October recruits took the starter kit deal and did nothing else.  Some are enjoying the discount on their own purchases.  Click on JOIN MY TEAM tab for more info.

The Wayne Crop is running about every other month.  I also go to one in Canton, MI every month, which you're welcome to attend as well.  Details are under UPCOMING EVENTS.
