Good Friday morning stamping friends. We’re back to our hot and humid days with an air quality alert. It has been by far, the hottest summer we’ve had in a while. It’s been hot in the past, but I don’t remember it being this hot for this long in quite some time. The air quality is not helping at all. Are you getting ready for the weekend? Last I saw, it’s supposed to be a rainy one here in NJ, but we’ll see what happens. They’ve been saying thunderstorms all week and we’ve had nothing.

It’s time to redeem those Bonus Days coupon codes that you earned from Stampin’ Up! in July!  You can redeem them on any order(s) placed during the month of August!

Redemption Period: August 1-31, 2024
Ordering Deadline:  August 31, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. (MT)

• There is no limit to the number of coupon codes you can redeem on an order during the redemption period. If using multiple codes, they must be separated by a space. 
• Coupon codes may be redeemed one time only. They cannot be redeemed after the August 31. 
• Coupon codes may be redeemed for any product (excluding Starter Kits). They cannot be used on exchanges.
• Bonus Days coupon codes can be applied to month-to-month Paper Pumpkin subscriptions and new prepaid subscriptions.

To redeem your coupon codes, simply add your item(s) to the shopping bag and look for the words “coupon code” under the pink checkout button.  Click on the little “+” sign next to coupon code. A box will appear, where you copy and paste your coupon code(s).  Be sure to leave a space between the codes if you have more than one.  ***Don’t forget to press the “apply” button or your codes will not be added to your order! You’ll see the merchandise total decrease by the amount of your coupon codes.  Then proceed through the checkout process like you normally do!

Let me know if you have any questions.
