Stampin' Up! Tea Together


Ready to bring some style to your card?  Have a friend or favorite aunt who collects tea, tea pots or tea cups.  Then the new Stampin' Up! Tea Together stamp set is going to be a fun addition to your stamp shelf.  This Occasion set includes both a tea pot and a tea cup image, plus several lovely flowers and buds to decorate your sets. While this set is in the Occasions catalog, you can earn the coordinating Tea Time Together Dies for free with a purchase of $100 from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure.  And to ensure your investment lasts, these dies will carry over beyond the Occasions catalog. 




The background for this card is Petal Pink.  Then a layer of Gold Foil Sheet die cut with the Delicate Lace Edgelit Dies from the annual Stampin' Up! catalog.  Then a layer of one of the prints from Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper.  

  




The tea pot image is stamped in Crumb Cake on Very Vanilla and die cut using the Tea Time Framelit dies from page 17 of the Sale-A-Bration brochure.  The sentiment is from the Tea Time Together stamp set and stamped in Soft Suede on a circle die cut using the Stitched Shapes Framelit Dies.  

The ribbon is is the 3/8" Gold Metallic edged ribbon from the annual Stampin' Up! catalog.        




The flowers stamped on the Very Vanilla tea pots are colored with Light Flirty Flamingo Blends Markers.  This set includes a number of different floral images, like the rose buds below, to use in enhancing your designs.  




Below is an additional floral image included with the Tea Together Stamp set.  The coordinating Tea Time Framelits Dies includes a die for this flower image, which means less fussy cutting for you! 



You'll love playing with new set and creating fun cards that match the personalities of the loved ones who will receive it.

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Gala Stamp Set

  • Stampin' Up! Butterfly Gala stamp set 
  • A card class to Jump Start your January
  • Join Stampin' Up! for $99 and get $175 in merchandise

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Gala


I love butterflies.  Stampin' Up! has given us a Spring Occasions and Sale-A-Bration chock full of butterflies.  Butterfly punches, butterfly paper. butterfly dies, butterfly accessories, and, of course, butterfly stamps.  Today I'm using the butterfly Gala to help finish my Christmas Thank you cards.  Are you done with your Thank you card? If not, grab some of these new butterfly items you'll be done in no time.  Today is the first day customers can order from the Occasions catalog and get a free product selection with each $50 or $100 you order




The background for this card is the Gingham Gala 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper that I lined with a Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Write Marker, giving the gingham paper more interest.    

I used a basecard of Lemon Lime Twist, then a layer of Lemon Lime Gingham Designer Series Paper. The sentiment block includes a die cut circle of vellum, then a layer of Whisper White, then a 5-1/2 inch piece of Whisper White  5/8" Flax ribbon, and then a layer of Daffodil Delight stamped with a sentiment from the Butterfly Gala stamp set in Gorgeous Grape. 

  




The three butterflies are from the Butterfly Gala stamp set.  They are stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento in and then colored with a Light Gorgeous Grape alcohol-based Blends Marker. Then the butterflies are punched out with the  Butterfly Duet Punch.  It punches both the large butterfly and the small butterfly at the same time.  That speeds up your card-making process.  Then I accented the card with adhesive-backed sequins.        




Take a look at this 60-second Stampin' Up! Butterfly Gala Project video that I used for the inspiration for today's card.  
  




  

Isn't this a gorgeous card?  You'll love this new Butterfly Gala bundle that you can purchase at a 10% savings, when purchased together.

Need inspiration for using Occasions catalog and Sale-A-Bration Products?  join us for our January 6 class in Houston, TX.

My customers who have placed an order through me in the past six-months and have not changed demonstrators, should receive both your catalogs in the mail.  They arrive separately and catalogs were sent to the mailing address listed in your Stampin' Up! profile as of November 30.  I've heard most of my customers have received the Sale-A-Bration brochure, but not everyone has received the Occasions catalog yet.  It should arrive in the next few days.  Let me know if it doesn't and you've verified that your mailing address in your Stampin' Up! account profile is correct.  Until they both arrive, download your catalogs by clicking the images above or by visiting the catalog download page.  Then place your orders at my online store.  

You'll love creating cards and projects with these new items, and then sharing your creativity with others when you need to send special cards in January.  Below are several stunning projects made with the new Floral Romance suite of products from page 10-11 of the new Occasions catalog.  Available beginning January 3.  See it in the Occasions catalog you download above.

Introducing new Cling Stamps

Stampin' Up! is introducing a new stamp type in the 2019 Occasions catalog, and we're super excited.  These new stamps are called Red Rubber Cling and these new Cling labels makes our Red Rubber Stamps better than ever.  Why?  Because with these labels on your red rubber stamps, your stamps won't fall off your clear blocks or your Stamparatus plates.



Beginning with the 2019 Occasions catalog and Sale-A-Bration brochure, new Cling stamps are being offered on a broad basis, after being tested in select markets.  Stampin' Up! will be transitioning to Cling mount sets beginning with the 2019l catalog.  Wood-mount and clear-mount sets in the annual catalog that will carry over will transition to Cling-style stamps with the 2019-2020 annual catalog.  In the 2019-2020 annual catalog, clear-mount and wood-mount stamps will no longer be available, except for background stamps in North America.  

During the transition each stamp type (photopolymer, wood-mounted, and cling stamps) is identified with an icon, which you'll want to be sure to view when placing your orders. Take a look at this video to hear more about these stamps and tips for assembly and careful removal.   

The cling is so strong you won't have to worry about it falling off your block.  Because of the super sticky labels, you'll want to hear the tips to avoid tearing the foam backing from the stamp during removal, Also note:  Once you place the label on the stamp, it is adhered permanently. Attempting to remove or adjust the label will damage the stamp's foam removal.         





Use Stampin' Mist  with the Stampin' Scrub or the Simply Shammy to clean your Cling Stamp.  Avoid using alcohol-based cleanersAlcohol will ruin the Cling Adhesive on the stamp.  If your label gets dirty, you can clean it with water, Stampin' Mist or very mild detergent.   Avoid using cleaning wipes as it will leave behind fibers.  We don't recommend using Staz On Cleaner.  If Staz On Cleaner comes in contact with the label, it should be cleaned with Stampin' Mist.  For additional information on how to label your Cling stamps, click here.  Instructions for applying your labels to your Cling stamps are included in every Cling stamp case.

Sale-A-Bration is the best time to join Stampin' Up! as a Demonstrator
