It's almost time!!

 The *NEW* Stampin' Rewards program starts April 15.   Note:  the website will be down for quite a while on Tuesday while all the new programing is added. Make sure you have a Stampin' Up! account and opt-in for the program via the pop-up when you login. 

The new program awards each individual customer for the purchases they make.  Same name, different program.  When you place an order of $20 or more, you'll receive 10% back in Stampin' Rewards.  This is similar to the VIP program CTMH had.  

You can use your Stampin' Rewards on your next order, or save them to use later.  There is a gift icon in the upper right corner (next to the heart for lists and shopping cart for cart) that will take you to your Rewards Dashboard and show you your balance.  There is also a list of your transactions (orders).

When you're shopping, the Order Summary will show the amount of rewards you are earning on the current order. There will also be a box showing your Stampin' Rewards balance and a place to apply rewards to the current order. 

I'm guessing an email will go out to everyone (if you have a Stampin' Up! account and opted-in for communication) and I have also seen a video.  I will share that if possible.

Any questions?  Let me know.  I didn't put all the fine details here.

New Online Exclusives!

In addition to this month’s Kit Collection premiers, it’s time for Online Exclusives! Although there is not a publication to view these items, you can use this file instead.  You can also view online in the shopping area with this link, or follow the directions below.

Anytime you want to find online exclusive items (not published in a catalog), 

• go to my website Tamara.StampinUp.net
• from the section titles click on SHOP NOW
• click on the “sandwich” lines in the upper left corner
• click SHOP PRODUCTS
• then select ONLINE EXCLUSIVES

There have been many updates to the Stampin’ Up! computer system since last year, mostly on the Demonstrator side, but the latest will be helpful to everyone!

When you view a product, you can now see if is part of a collection, or what is included in a bundle or collection. Furthermore, you can click on those items to see if you want the entire suite, or just individual items, or if you want the entire bundle versus separate items.

Other updates coming soon:  the subscription kits will move from PaperPumpkin.com to StampinUp.com.  That happens this month.  I’ll update my Paper Pumpkin tab with details.  

Next month we will switch from the Host Code format to an individual Stampin’ Rewards program similar to the VIP program Close To My Heart had! In preparation for this, it is important that you have a Stampin’ Up! account and login with me.  If you have the  “invitation” via email, complete the process. If you missed, or didn’t receive this email, let me know, or…

February News

 Here is a great way to earn FREE products with your Paper Pumpkin subscription.

Sale-A-Bration continues through the end of February.  When your order totals $60 or $120, you can select an exclusive product from the Sale-A-Bration brochure (FYI a few current items will be added to the list on Tuesday).

You can purchase a 3 month Paper Pumpkin code for $71 (plus shipping and tax) to earn one Sale-A-Bration item.  This makes your Paper Pumpkin subscription $26.32 plus tax.  However, the month-to-month subscription price of $25 includes shipping, so while it will give you access to Sale-A-Bration items, it doesn't necessarily save you money per month.

If you're already a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, now is a great time to grab those refills, coordinating dies, or past kits you missed.  The refills can be used with other stamps and ink if you didn't get the original box.  A 1 month pre-paid code @ $24 plus two refills and a die set @ $12 = $60.  This scenario gives you 3 months of cards for $22.65 (plus tax).

Let's try something else...If you have never tried Paper Pumpkin, you can purchase a 1 month code for $24 with additional items until you reach $60 or $120 total. If you're in to saving money like me (aka cheap), check out the Last Chance area.  There are several reduced price items from the Kit Collection there in addition to many other items. REMEMBER:  Since February is an even month, the Last Chance section will update soon (Tuesday I think)!!

Remember, at $150 total, your order earns Stampin' Rewards!  If you're ready to go "all in" with Paper Pumpkin, purchase a 6 month AND 1 month codes and you'll not only have $120 for Sale-A-Bration, but you'll be able to select $15+ in additional FREE product for Stampin' Rewards. In this example, your monthly rate is less than $25 (plus tax).

One more tip, order with a friend to save on shipping. 

It's Sale-A-Bration time!!

It's a new year and there's a new mini-catalog, that also means it's time for the biggest Stampin' Up! promotion of the year!!

Promotion Period:  Sale-A-Bration runs for nearly two months from Tuesday, January 7 through Friday, February 28.

How it works:  With every $60 or $120 you spend on Stampin' Up! products (before tax and shipping), you can choose a FREE Sale-A-Bration product from the designated flyer!

Plus, if you join Stampin' Up! during Sale-A-Bration, you can build a Starter Kit full of products you choose.  And you get to select one of two FREE bonus options!

If you didn't receive the new brochures in the mail, links are below.  The Scrapbooking flyer is digital only.  (This is the last time...the new annual catalog will include the scrapbooking products!)
