Spring Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration Begin

| Rhonda Kleiman

Hello!

The January-April 2024 Mini Catalog, also known as the Spring Mini Catalog, along with Sale-A-Bration, began yesterday, January 4. This is always an exciting time of the Stampin’ Up! year! I lost Internet service most of the day and evening yesterday so I’m a day late with this post!

Click on the images to view the Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration brochure. You can also click on the images on the right side bar on the home page.

Sale-A-Bration runs from January 4-February 9. With every $50 or $100 purchase that you make (before shipping and sales tax) you earn free gifts! There are many wonderful products to choose from and some of them coordinate with products in the Mini Catalog.

Join Stampin’ Up! and Get This Free Glass Mat Studio

During Sale-A-Bration, when you join Stampin’ Up!  you can choose $125 of products for only $99, which includes shipping.  You get to choose from two FREE bonus options – either this Glass Mat Studio (a $60 value) or your choice of an additional $30 in FREE products.  The Glass Mat Studio has been creating quite a buzz!  I was able to purchase one during demonstrator pre-order and am still playing with the many different ways to use it.

The Stampin’ Glass Mat Studio is a paper crafter’s dream! The heavy-duty glass mat comes printed with a ruler and grid lines for easy measuring, while the large surface space gives ample room for spreading out while paper crafting. The safety-tempered glass has a heat and scratch resistant surface that wipes clean with the included cloth and water—no chemicals needed. The reusable cloth also cleans ink off your stamps! The nonslip, heat resistant, waterproof silicone mat features four palette squares for mixing custom ink colors or for holding small ink spots in place while crafting. Each component can be used separately or you can use all three items together for a multipurpose paper crafting studio that’s both functional and elegant.

The Stampin’ Glass Mat Studio includes:

GLASS MAT
* 5 mm thick
* 17″ x 14″ (43.2 x 35.6 cm)
* Safety-tempered
* Heat and scratch resistant
* Wipes clean with water or alcohol

This month’s Paper Pumpkin is designed to coordinate with the new Perennial Lavender Suite in the new Mini Catalog as shown on pages 22-25.. The kit includes supplies to make 8 love themed cards, 4 each of 2 different designs with 8 coordinating envelopes; 4 bonus tags that punch out from the card front; precut paper pieces and linen thread; Berry Burst Stampin’ Spot.  Coordinating colors are: Garden Green, Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon, Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape. In addition, the occasional add-on dies have become so popular that this year there will be a new add-on die set that is designed to work with three kits each quarter.  The Love of Spring Dies, Item #164396 will be available for purchase in my online store.  Click here to learn more about Paper Pumpkin subscription options.

Paper Pumpkin Hope Box

| Rhonda Kleiman

Hello! Today I’m featuring the August 2021 Paper Pumpkin Hope Box kit that was designed by Shelli Gardner, co-founder of Stampin’ Up! I purchase a few kits every year, and I must confess that I seldom get around to making most of them so I have quite a few boxes piled up! However, I loved this kit as soon as I opened the box so I intentionally set a few hours aside this weekend to make the projects, along with a few alternative projects. The items in the kit are pretty and include some of my favorite colors. Normally, the subscription period for Paper Pumpkin ends on the 10th of every month and then some of the kits are no longer available. This month is an exception. Due to a glitch in the ordering system, customers were unable to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin’s Shelli Hope Box between 31 July–5 August, so Stampin’ Up! is offering the Shelli Hope Box to all North American customers, regardless of subscription from 24 August–31 August! The kit can be purchased through the Paper Pumpkin Refills and Past Kits section of my online store until 11:59 PM (MT) 31 August. Click here to order the kit. Hope Box refills will continue to be available to subscribers only. After this limited offering, the full kit will only be available on the regular past kit schedule for subscribers only.

The kit is loaded with a stamp set, ink spot, cards, envelopes, embellishments, adhesives and a color brochure with photographs and instructions for how to put the projects together. You can make the projects as shown or create your own alternate designs.

The kit also contains everything you need to make a beautiful belly band for the box – so pretty!

These are the three cards I made following the instructions given.

These are three alternative cards I made with the supplies in the kit.

Here are separate pictures for each of the alternative cards. I chose some stamp sets with different greetings in my collection so that I could use the cards for other occasions. The DSP on the card with the hello friend tag is actually one of the envelopes that I cut up to use as a background.

Monthly pay as you go subscriptions are available for $22.00 per month including shipping by going to my Paper Pumpkin website. Prepaid three, six and twelve month subscriptions are also available by going to my online store.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Paper Pumpkin-Winter Wonders

| Rhonda Kleiman

The holiday season will be here before we know it. And along with putting up the Christmas tree and spending snowy nights by the fire, many of our Paper Pumpkin subscribers will be looking forward to opening their holiday kit. Christmastime papercrafting with Paper Pumpkin has become an annual tradition!

This October and November we are offering back-to-back coordinating kits, one with Christmas cards, the other with Christmas tags. While the kits have been designed to coordinate with one another each one is all-inclusive and can stand alone. Both kits make it easy for you to add a handmade, personal touch to your holiday giving—without a lot of fuss. It’s Christmas made easy with Paper Pumpkin!

The October kit includes supplies to make ten 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ cards and the coordinating colors are Early Espresso, Pool Party, Poppy Parade and Shaded Spruce. Subscribe now through October 10th by going to my Paper Pumpkin website here. The kit will arrive in your mailbox by the 20th of the month. The November kit includes supplies to make 24 holiday-themed gift tags of four different sizes and designs and the coordinating colors are the same as the ones in the October kit. You will be able to subscribe to the November kit from October 11- November 10th.

If you are new to stamping or to Paper Pumpkin, this would be a great time to give it a try. If you have subscribed in the past, you too might want to re-subscribe to get a jump on your holiday papercrafting.
