Sale-A-Bration Product of the Week - a tropical theme!


Sale-A-Bration Product of the Week: Botanicals for You Stamp Set and Botanical Gardens Designer Vellum Stack

During Stampin’ Up!’s annual Sale-A-Bration event, you earn FREE Sale-A-Bration rewards for every $50 US/$60 CA you spend on Stampin’ Up! products, including the very diverse Botanicals for You Stamp Set and Botanical Gardens Designer Vellum Stack—two of our favorite Sale-A-Bration products! 

 



One of the things that makes these products so cool is that they coordinate perfectly with the Botanical Gardens Suite from the 2016 occasions catalog. Throw all of these products together in a semi-organized way and come out with a set of four fantastic cards, as well as a nifty card holder. Life is good during Sale-A-Bration!  See these awesome items and buy them in my online store.

Do you like to color?



Have you checked out the new Stampin' Up Occasions catalog yet?  What a fun way to get motivated to play with some new products and projects, and distract yourself from the winter weather!  There is a versatile stamp set in it that I wanted to share; it is Party with Cake (photopolymer set only $20 for 12 stamps).  It is perfect for coloring with Stampin' Up markers and making a few (or a lot of) cards:
