Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends!! I hope your week has started off great. I had a very short day of work yesterday and got home much earlier than I expected to. I figured I had plenty of time to get my card made and blog it. THEN, I got started pulling out all the items that will be retiring, stamp sets, bundles, dies, embossing folder, inks, punches, embellishments, ribbon etc. You get the drift. This is such a bittersweet time of the Stampin’ Up! year. I hate to see things go, but I’m excited to see the new things coming. It took me a few hours to reorganize my area once I got things pulled. Then a salesman came over to talk to us about replacing windows (which we are planning on doing). He was here for over for 3 hours. Needless to say, by the time he left, and I finished cleaning up, I was too tired to make a card. I promise I’ll have one for tomorrow.
TODAY IS THE DAY!!!!
Don’t wait to order those retired items you’ve been wanting. Once they are gone, that’s it. Get those orders placed and don’t forget to use my Current Host Code XMVFTAU4. I got up at the crack of dawn, or before that, and got my preorder placed. I can’t wait for all my goodies to arrive. I’m really excited about seeing all the new colors in person.

Stampin’ Up! let us know that some of the items in the new catalog will have higher prices when the catalog is launched on May 2. The prices for all items that are carrying over will continue to be the current catalog prices through May 1.

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS: XMVFTAU4
Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog! Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials. Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.
Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards!
Happy Stamping, Karen

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well. I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.
Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater. And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!
But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:
- You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly! OR….
- If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
