Stampin’ Up! Thankful Garden Friendship

Good Sunday morning stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? There was a little bit of plan changing for me this weekend. I’m still working both days, but alone. All my cashiers are sick. One offered to come in saying she wasn’t that bad, I politely refused since I don’t want to get sick. Luckily, I trained one of the salesmen to do a basic charge sale, so he hopped on a couple times yesterday when my line got too long. By the time I got home last night, I didn’t want to do anything. Hopefully everyone gets better soon.

For today’s card, I was playing with the new set coming in March. You may see a few cards this week using it since I was playing around with different colors. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Thankful Garden Friendship 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Thankful Garden Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Textured Notes Dies. Both of these items will be available starting March 4th.

Stampin' Up! Thankful Garden Friendship 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Start by masking off 1″ on either side of a Basic White card front using pieces of sticky note tape. Start at the top by applying Petal Pink Ink using a Blending Brush. Add Soft Sea Foam Ink below the Petal Pink using another Blending Brush. Add Highland Heather Ink to the bottom using a Blending Brush. Remove the sticky note tape.

Stampin' Up! Thankful Garden Friendship 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the flower image from the Thankful Garden stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink over the blended area. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Thankful Garden stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the longest die from the Textured Notes Dies.

Stampin' Up! Thankful Garden Friendship 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Marker, color a piece of White 1/2″ Woven Ribbon. Adhere the ribbon to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Brushed Brass Butterflies to the card front. Adhere the layered card front to a Soft Sea Foam card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

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.

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:

  1. 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….
  2. 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.

Good Friday morning stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. It was a messy, snowy, icy, rainy day here yesterday. I don’t mind the snow, but I really dislike the ice. Because people around here don’t take care of their sidewalks, I didn’t want to take the pup for her morning walk Are you all getting ready for the weekend yet?

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.

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:

  1. 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….
  2. 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.

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.

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:

  1. 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….
  2. 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.
