Watercolor pencils back in stock, but won't last more than 2-3 weeks

Stampin' Up! watercolor pencils have been extremely popular and orders are out-packing projections. This is such a great set of quality pencils.

Today we got word from Stampin' Up! that they are in stock and filling back orders. However, due to high demand, they expect this batch to only last 2-3 more weeks. The next order is not expected to arrive in the Stampin' Up! warehouse until mid-April. I wanted to give you all a heads up and an opportunity to order them before they run out again. Order number: 141709

Happy Valentines Day!

Phew! Made it through another holiday with lots and lots of great Valentine's Day projects and very productive and fun classes! I believe the Valentine's set were outstanding this year and hope some of them carry over to the June catalog. Plus there were so many additional sets that could be used as Valentine sets -- it wasn't all focused on heart images.

No new projects today. Just a look back at all the Valentine projects completed!

We made plenty of cards and lots of treat packaging for the holiday. Click for a large image. I decide to let my mom know how much I loved her and sent her a Valentine a day for 12 days in a row. We spoke today and she had just received the latest card and was tickled to display cards that spoke of how much she was loved. What's the most unusual way you've sent cards to those you love?

This week we start Easter projects. Yes, its coming up faster than you expect. The Occasions catalog is filled with projects I'm itching to start. And there are some gorgeous stamp sets for Easter and Spring in the main catalog. (See below to download your free copies).

Stampin' Up! mini egg carton (142776) and Basket Bunch stamp and die bundle (144731)

These Mini Egg Cartons are so cute. They can be left plain, or use a few drops of your favorite reinker color, some alcohol and the Stampin' Spritzer (126185) to color your cartons to match your projects.

On another note about low stock: I heard today that the mini egg cartons are on back order until March 20. Stampin' Up! has been hitting home runs with new products that we love! So much so that we're ordering in much larger quantities than they projected. I've got a class planned in a couple weeks using these mini egg cartons. If you're thinking you'll order mini egg cartons for your Easter projects, you'll want to get them on order as soon as possible. Order number 142776
