Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Bration Sneak Peek
Today we're test driving another new stamp set from the Sale-A-Bration brochure, which I understand many of you received just before Christmas. We're using So Hoppy Together stamp set. This is one of the free selections from the Sale-Bration Brochure with a $50 Stampin' Up! order beginning January 3. This set was a smash hit at the November OnStage event, when it was demonstrated on stage with a bit of a, uh hum, positioning issue. (Ask someone who was there...). I'm for-sure going to recreate the card for my husband for Valentine's Day. It brought the audience to a standing ovation after it had most people rolling in the aisles for about 15 minutes. No body cared that the demonstration went way over time allotted. Definitely had to be there live to appreciate it.
Before my customers begin calling, YES, the new Occasions catalogs are also on the way. They were shipped within a few days of each other, so it should be in your mailbox soon. If you don't have a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, and you need the upcoming catalogs, just let me know.
Sale-A-Bration is a special sale Stampin' Up! holds during Jan - Feb - March, where each $50 or $100 purchase earns you free selections from Sale-A-Bration merchandise from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure. This year, during Sale-A-Bration, there is also THE BEST SIGN UP BONUS I have ever seen during my 12 years as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator.
If you've thought about joining Stampin' Up! as either a hobby demonstrator -just for the 20% discount on your orders-- or if you've always wanted a side hustle to earn a little extra money while having a ball with your crafty friends, beginning January 3, you'll be able to sign up for $99 and pick $175 -- YES $175-- worth of merchandise from any of the current Stampin' Up! catalogs as your starter kit. This is THE Best Offer I've ever seen Stampin' Up! offer new demonstrators. Be sure to wait until January 3 to get the $175 offer, and then, click this link to sign up, or contact me with your phone number and we'll work through a Starter Kit order to get you the most for your money.

| So Hoppy Together stamp set. A free Sale-A-Bration Selection with a $50 ordering beginning January 3, 2019 |
I used a basecard of Granny Apple Green, then a layer of Basic Black. Then a layer of a print from the Tea Room Specialty designer series paper that I remembered had flies or bees as part of its background -- perfect for my little green froggie.
I die cut a stitched Whisper White rectangle using the new set of Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies (bottom of page 28 in the new Occasions catalog). Then I set up my Stamparatus with the little bugs images, the frog image and the sentiment stamp, all on a single Stamparatus plate so that I could stamp all three at one time in Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Then I used the light and dark Granny Apple Green Blends alcohol-based markers to color the little bugs and the frog.
The 1/2" Granny Apple Green Textured Weave Ribbon is tied across the image block. I'm pretty sure that this stamp set is going to be extremely popular as a free selection, and I encourage you to place your order early if you want to select this stamp set as your free selection. I know I've already ordered 5 of these stamp sets. Hope there's some left for you. :-)

Organize your 2019 for Maximum Productivity
Are you ready for 2019? One more item you won't want to overlook on the Clearance Rack -- especially as you begin planning your 2019 -- is the Love Today Planner. To organize yourself in 2019, you'll love that you can customize your planner with your stamps, stickers that come with your Planner, die cuts, and photos, while planning to achieve your goals more easily than ever.
While your phone has taken over most of the tasks of a Planner, there is research that suggests that writing things down by hand helps you retain information better. Also, a paper Planner keeps everything in one place, instead of bouncing from app to app. You can have it in one place rather than bouncing from one app for calendar, a separate to-do list app, and yet another app for notes and lists.

Organize your time. Spend it with purpose
Focus on the goals you care about. List reminders for your greeting card needs each month, schedule your blog posts, Facebook videos, and stamping dates along with all of your ideas, goals, tasks, and every-day to-dos. You might turn your planner into a memory book where you can use it to capture thoughts, doodles and photos to scrapbook. Just add a few 6" X 8" Memories & More photo pages from page 194 in the Annual Catalog.
Treat yourself or a loved one, your Mom, Coworkers, BFFs and siblings to this organization essential for 2019. No dates are printed so your can start using the Love Today Planner anytime you want. Pick up several and you can use them as gifts throughout the year!
