Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Motifs Spotlight

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you weekend is going well. Yesterday was a long day, but a very enjoyable one celebrating my son’s engagement. By the time I got home, I just wanted to crash.

Before I get started with my card, I want to thank all that participated in my fundraiser. Unfortunately, we did not make the goal of $500, but we did donate $235. Thank you so very much for being a part of raising money for the Texas flooding.

I did a fun technique for today’s card called the Spotlight Technique. I love doing this technique, it’s so easy and it brings your eye to one focal point. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

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!

Here is the list of states having sales tax holidays, what the dates are and what supplies will be tax free during the holiday (click on the image to download a full-size printable page):

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.
