Registration for Cheers & Sips Online Zoom Class Open

Good afternoon stamping friends. This is my 2nd post today. If you are looking for my card, you can find it Here.

Tara and I are offering an Online Class on June 29th using the Cheers & Sips Bundle. If you are thinking about signing up for this class, I’m hoping you will sign up sooner than later. With the upcoming Buy 1 Get 1 at 50% off sale coming on June 3rd, I don’t want to be worrying about them selling out of any of the products from this suite. Once you sign up, if you are purchasing anything extra, I will send the invoice out right away. I’m planning on placing my order Monday night for any bundles that are ordered through me along with the ribbon and embellishments to ensure I get them. If you are ordering any of the products on your own, I highly suggest that you get your orders in early Tuesday morning.

Tara Carpenter and I are teaming up to offer a fun online class using Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Cheers & Sips Bundle.  We will be creating 6 different cards during the class including 2 fun folds.

The class fee includes:

  • Stampin’ Up! Holographic Resin Dots (full pack)
  • Stampin’ Up! Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon (full pack)
  • Pre-cut card kits to complete each card
  • Zoom class with complete instructions to complete each card
  • PDF with detailed directions

During sign up you will have the option to add additional items to your order that you can take advantage of at no additional shipping cost.  These items are optional, however if you want to recreate the cards you will need them.

The class will be held Sunday June 29th from 1 to 5 pm Eastern Time via Zoom.  This allows anyone in the United States to participate live!  Can’t join us live… no worries, we will record the session so it can be replayed at any time.

We will email written directions that will include directions, cardstock cuts as well as photos to help you create each card.

We are not including the bundle in the price of the class.  You can purchase the bundle through me at an additional 10% discount of the Online Exclusive price (see below).

Class Cost $35 + $9 (Priority Shipping) 

Additional purchased items will be included in the above shipping price.  We will invoice you through PayPal by June 15tth to insure we can get the products delivered, packaged up and out to you with enough time.  

Deadline: Saturday June 14th  (this is so we have time to order all the bundles, embellishments and DSP being used)

Click Here to register for the class now!! Let me know if you have any questions.

Stampin’ Up! Poppin’ By for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday afternoon stamping friends and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. I hope you all had a wonderful week and are starting to look forward to the weekend. We’re having some nasty thunderstorms here today in NJ and we’re supposed to be getting more tomorrow.

I played with a new bundle today from the Online Exclusives. This bundle screamed my husband’s name. He’s a popcorn and movie lover, so it fits him to a T. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Poppin' By Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Poppin’ By Bundle for my book fold card today.

Stampin' Up! Poppin' By Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Add Liquid Glue to the inside of the Real Red card base between the 4 1/4″ & 5 1/2″ score lines to create the book fold card. Randomly stamp the popcorn images from the Stampin’ Up! Poppin’ By Cling Stamp Set in Lemon Lolly Ink on the card front and side panel of Basic White. Stamp the sentiment from the Poppin’ By stamp set in Real Red Ink around the popcorn images. Adhere the Basic White panels to the Basic Black mats with Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panels to the Real Red card base with Stampin’ Seal.

Stampin' Up! Poppin' By Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

From a panel of Basic Black, cut the movie reel pieces, glasses and shoes using the Poppin’ By Dies. Adhere the die cut movie pieces to a panel of Gray Granite. Adhere the layered panel to the side panel of the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Poppin' By Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the popcorn bucket image from the Poppin By stamp set in Lemon Lolly and Real Red Inks. On the Lemon Lolly image, draw over the legs/feet with Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker. On the Real Red image, draw over the eyes with the Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker. Cut the images out using the Poppin’ By Dies. Fussy cut the Real Red bucket using Paper Snips. Adhere the fussy cut bucket to the Lemon Lolly die cut image using Glue Dots. Adhere the die cut glasses and shoes to the image. From a panel of Basic White, cut the 3 popcorn dies using the Poppin’ By Dies. Adhere the die cut popcorn to the card front with Glue Dots. Adhere the popcorn bucket image to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Stampin' Up! Poppin' By Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from Poppin’ By stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Randomly stamp the popcorn images from Poppin’ By stamp set in Lemon Lolly Ink around the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Basic Black mat then to the inside of the Real Red card base.

Stampin' Up! Poppin' By Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish the card. Stamp the sentiment from Poppin’ By stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. Randomly stamp the popcorn images from Poppin’ By stamp set in Lemon Lolly Ink on the envelope front and envelope flap

NEW Stampin’ Up! Reward Program Coming in April 15th

Stampin’ Up! will be updating their Reward Program starting April 15th. The current Stampin’ Rewards program that Stampin’ Up! has had for many years will be going away in mid-April.  You’ll soon be able to earn Stampin’ Rewards on smaller orders!  Here are the basics:

This does mean that my $10 thank you gifts will also be going away on April 15 since I used the host rewards to “purchase” those gifts for everyone.  But since you’ll be earning 10% back in rewards directly from Stampin’ Up! with every order of $20+, you’re going to be able to cash in those rewards for anything that you’d like on any order that you’d like to use them on!

You’ll no longer need to place a large order of $150+ to earn free product like you do with the current Stampin’ Rewards system. 

Starting April 15 at 8 AM MT and moving forward, you will earn 10% rewards with orders of $20+!! So if you place an order of $50, you’ll earn a $5 reward to use the next time you shop!

You can save your rewards for up to a year!  So you can spend them on a future order all at once or a little at at time. 

Additionally, the “host code” will be going away, so beginning April 15, you’ll no longer need to apply my current host code to your order.

What won’t be changing:
My Creative Stamping Designs Rewards program will not be changing.  So, no worries there!  You’ll still continue to earn reward points toward free Stampin’ Up! merchandise from me with every order of $50+!  And any points/rewards/gifts that you’ve collected from me up until this point will still be valid.  You won’t be losing out on anything that you’ve earned from me, and you’ll continue to earn points toward free merchandise with every order of $50+ just like you do now.  

What should you know now to prepare for these changes?
Here are a few things that you can do to make the transition to the new program as smooth as possible:

  • You need to have a Stampin’ Up! online store account at stampinup.com so you can earn and redeem rewards.
    • I will not be able to create and manage customer accounts.  I’ll be able to help you with ordering if you need me.  But because of stricter banking policies and data/privacy laws, you need to officially be in charge of your own customer account for earning & redeeming rewards.  So make sure you can log in at stampinup.com.
  • You will need to opt into the program to earn and redeem Stampin’ Rewards.  When you place your first order after April 15, you’ll have the option to opt into the new rewards program.  If you choose not to opt in with your first order, you’ll have the option to opt in at any point when you order after that.
  • If you don’t want a Stampin’ Up! online store account, you can still order SU products through me. You just won’t receive the Stampin’ Rewards directly for your purchases.  I’ll receive the rewards and I’ll need to apply them to future orders for you.
  • If you don’t want to opt into the rewards program, you don’t have to opt in.  You can still order; you just won’t receive the Stampin’ Rewards for your purchases.

Again, these changes will begin April 15th at 8 AM Mountain Time.  I’m notifying you a little early so that you are ready for these changes.  Let me know if you have any questions.  I’m excited for you all to start earning rewards on orders of $20+ soon!

If you haven’t claimed your Paper Pumpkin do so today. Even though you already may have a Paper Pumpkin Subscription, you must go to my Online Store, click on Paper Pumpkin and Manage My Subscription.

Beginning April 11, Paper Pumpkin is increasing its subscription prices to accommodate rising manufacturing costs. All new subscriptions purchased on or after April 11 will be at the new price. 
In addition, starting Tuesday, April 15, Paper Pumpkin subscriptions will qualify for rewards through the new Stampin’ Rewards program.
The first kit at the new price, the May Mountain Majesties Kit, will bill on May 11 at 12:01 a.m. (MT). 

Paper Pumpkin accounts will no longer be managed on a separate website at paperpumpkin.com.  It’s all going to merge with the stampinup.com site!

Starting March 11th at 8 AM MT, you’ll only need to log into your Stampin’ Up! online store account at stampinup.com to start or manage your Paper Pumpkin subscription! 

Initially you will need to “claim” your paperpumpkin.com account in the subscriptions area of your Stampin’ Up! online store account.  So be sure you know and can access the email that your Paper Pumpkin account is currently under (claiming can occur on or after March 11th).  Then you will have full access to all the editing options.

Click here for an informative PDF and click here for a video on managing your account(s).

Prepaid subscriptions are also changing a bit.  The One Month Prepaid subscription is going away since gifting will be so much easier (check out the video for the details!).  There will no longer be a slight discount with the 6 and 12 month subscriptions.  But with the new customer rewards program you will earn when purchasing the new 3, 6 or 12 month prepaid subscriptions!

Yay for an easier way to manage your Paper Pumpkin subscription coming very soon!!

*********************************************************************************************************

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.

Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Nature for The Card Concepts

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends and Happy Valentine’s Day. How is everyone doing today? Is anyone doing anything for Valentine’s Day? It’s Wednesday, so I’ll be working.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. We are doing month-long challenges now, so you have all month to enter multiple times.  The inspiration photo #204 is Winter Warmth. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here for my Instagram Reels. Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the new Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Nature Bundle (available March 5th) along with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. I was inspired by the pine trees in the photo along with the color scheme for my Clean & Layered card today. 

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 204.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

I started by stamping the branch circle from the Stampin’ Up! Encircled In Nature Photopolymer Stamp Set on a Very Vanilla card front in Early Espresso Ink. I cut the center of the circle out using the Encircled In Nature Dies. I embossed the die cut panel using the Timber EF.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

On another panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the rounded tree image and the tall tree image from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I stamped the moon and stars image from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Lemon Lolly Ink between the trees. I adhered the embossed card front to the stamped Very Vanilla mat using Stampin’ Dimensionals. From a panel of Mossy Meadow I cut the tree images using the Encircled In Nature Dies. From a panel of Crumb Cake, I cut the foliage image using the Encircled In Natures Dies. I adhered the die cut images to the bottom of the branch circle using Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered card front to a Mossy Meadow card base using Liquid Glue.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

On a panel of Very Vanilla, I stamped the sentiment from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I cut the ends of the sentiment on an angle using Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a double bow using Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine from the Baker’s Twine Essential Pack. I adhered the bow to the sentiment using a Glue Dot. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Cork Rounds to the card front.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. I stamped the tree images from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Very Vanilla mat then to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

To finish my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Encircled In Nature stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Stampin' Up! Encircled In Nature 7 creativestampingdesigns.com

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

Last Day for my “Stuck on You Valentine” Ordering Special!

For all orders of $50 or greater (before shipping and taxes) that have my Current Host Code T9JKA3XQ applied or for individual orders of $150 or greater placed through me between now and Wednesday, February 14, you’ll get your choice of a free adhesive! You MUST remember to add my Host Code to your orders.

This can be anything that Stampin’ Up! sells that could be used as an adhesive!  And for the adhesives that are $5 or under, two packs will equal one choice (see the items with the (2) on the list below) so if you select those, you’ll get double, YAY!!

The adhesive will be in addition to the normal thank you gift that I order for you!!  Plus, since your order will be over $50, you’ll earn Sale-A-Bration item(s) too.  A big double YAY for more free goodies!!

***Please note, if your order is over $150, do not apply a host code.  If you apply a host code to your order, it will take away your host benefits and we don’t want that!  But don’t worry, you’ll still be eligible for the free gift and free adhesive offer!

Here is a list of the adhesives that you can pick from:

  • Adhesive Sheets
  • Multipurpose Liquid Glue
  • Mini Glue Dots
  • Tear & Tape Adhesive
  • Stampin’ Seal
  • Stampin’ Seal Refill
  • Stampin’ Seal +
  • Stampin’ Seal + Refill

  • Stampin’ Dimensionals (2)
  • Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (2)
  • Black Stampin’ Dimensionals Combo Pack
  • Foam Adhesive Sheets

  • Heat & Stick Powder

I’ll be placing the order for the adhesives with my host orders on February 16th, so please be sure to send your selections right away when you order…otherwise I’ll pick one for you and send it out with your thank you gift!

*With Stampin’ Up!’s new backorder policy where numbers are turned off for ordering if they go on backorder, if the adhesive that you pick is turned off for ordering when I place the order on the 16th, I’ll order Stampin’ Dimensionals for you instead.
