Stampin’ Up! Amber Autumn Fun Fold

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you are starting to make some plans for the weekend. The last 2 days were the most perfect summer days you could want. Low 80’s with very low humidity and a beautiful breeze. It was just gorgeous out. I made sure to take advantage and go for multiple walks. Temperatures are going up again starting today.

I played with some new products coming in the September – December 2025 Mini Catalog. This autumn bundle is just gorgeous, and it was a MUST HAVE for me from the first time I saw it. You’ll be able to purchase it starting September 3rd, unless you want to get your hands on it early and join the Stampin’ Up! community. If that’s the case, contact me and we can talk about signing you up. You can add the new products coming in September to your starter kit so that you won’t have to wait.  If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin’ Up! 2025-2027 In-Color Sale & August Technique Online Class Registration

Good Saturday morning stamping friends, welcome to the weekend!! I hope you have some fun plans in the works. I’ll be at work all day today, but we’ll be closing early for a company team building event. For the past few years, we have all gotten tickets to a local minor league baseball game. We’ll all be going again tonight. They got us a couple boxes to accommodate all the employees along with food and drinks for us. When the game is over, we will get to see fireworks. We always have so much fun at this event; we’re like one big family. I think there is more socializing then actually watching the game though. Everyone is so relaxed, talking and not being interrupted by the customers. I’m really looking forward to going tonight.

Sales Tax Holiday

Twelve states and Puerto Rico are having Back-to-School Sales Tax Holidays this year and some Stampin’ Up! items qualify for the tax break in those states!

The states with upcoming tax holidays are:  Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Mexico, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia.  So if you live in one of those states or Puerto Rico, take a second to download the spreadsheet below and mark your calendar!

Please note that you must place your order with Stampin’ Up! during the tax holiday period in your state in order to receive these items tax-free (which is midnight on the first day to midnight on the last day of the tax holiday).  Also, keep in mind that this is a state sales tax holiday; the state statute may not apply to county, city, and special jurisdiction taxes.

For those wondering about Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, New Jersey, and Wisconsin, those states have suspended the sales tax holiday this year.
