SO.
I usually post about Stampin’ Up! Canada’s Weekly Deals bright and early (ish) on Tuesdays when they come up. This week, the plan was no different. But then it was.
First of all, Alan Doyle, of the band Great Big Sea (and TV & movies…) tweeted about being on Morning Live. I tweeted about being there LAST Tuesday and that it was obvious that they didn’t want me fangirling on set. At one point, Alan Doyle responded to my tweet. That was exciting!
Then I got a message from the producer of Morning Live inviting me to come by the studio to MEET Alan Doyle! I did hesitate for a moment, but then I decided – what the heck – it’s a fun opportunity! After picking myself up off the floor, I ran around to get ready to go. I decided not to take my big DSLR camera (I’m already looking like a dork LOL), but then had to dig through my binder of CDs to grab something to get an autograph! Something to think about in this day and age of so much digital media – nothing to get autographs on! Once I got to the green room (which of course is NOT green), I am very proud to say that I did NOT squeal out loud, and in fact I think I looked rather calm and collected once I was there! He was lovely to chat with and very down to earth. It was a wonderful opportunity – so THANK YOU once again to Morning Live, Don, Annette, Bob, Carla and everyone associated with the show. Oh, and Alan Doyle for putting up with me. I did give him a hand stamped card too!
OK so, after all that preamble…here are the weekly deals. Click on the item links to see them in the YamStamps Stampin’ Up! Canada online store, or see all the deals here at a glance. Please contact me if you need help placing your order or have any questions.

So…..I had about 4 projects prepped for the Morning Live appearance, knowing we wouldn’t get through all of them, but I really did think we would have managed to get more than one done on air! Ah well. I’d rather be over prepared than under prepared. Think of it as a YamStamps Blog Bonus – because I’ll share those projects here and who knows, if I can clear enough space in my stamping area, I’ll be able to shoot a video or two!! LOL.
Here’s the video from yesterday – please come to the YamStamps blog if you can’t see it below (if you’re viewing via email or a reader) – or subscribe to the YamStamps YouTube Channel to receive notifications each time I upload a new video.
Thanks again to the wonderful hosts and crew at Morning Live who make me feel at home each time I’ve made an appearance. It’s always a fun experience!
A reminder that February’s Card Class is happening on Wednesday, February 4th (one week today) – we’re going to have a SALE-A-BRATION KICK OFF! (OK I know it’s actually already started, but better late than never?!). Cards will feature Sale-a-Bration items plus you can check out the samples that I’ve made with Sale-a-Bration goodies! Registration is open now until Monday, February 2nd – please contact me to RSVP and I will see you soon!

Thanks to everyone at CH Morning Live for having me on as a guest once again. I managed to show one project…never mind the fact that I had at least 2 others prepped and ready to go!!! Ah well. TV’s loss is the YamStamps blog reader’s gain – I’ll share all those prepped projects here over the next while leading up to Valentine’s Day. Just a quick FYI – I shared 2 kit projects on air today – the first was the Hello Life project kit and the second was the So You project kit. Both were fun and easy to make. If you decide to join my team of Stampin’ Up! Canada Demonstrators during Sale-a-Bration, you can select one of these kits for free to add to your choice of merchandise in your starter kit. Contact me for more information!
OK here are this week’s deals from Stampin’ Up! Canada. I love using the embossing folders to add texture to a project – quick and easy! Click on the item name to see it in the YamStamps Online store – you can shop 24/7 and have it delivered to your door!

Feb 13, 2014 | cards, Occasions, Sale-A-Bration
Here’s a fun card for Valentine’s Day – nice enough on the outside…
featuring the Tags 4 You set from the Holiday Catalogue that is still available to order, punched out with the Bracket Label punch and accented with a row of hearts from the Adorning Accents Textured Impressions folders.
But open the card and there’s an extra surprise!
Inside, it’s fun with mini banners! These are from the Sale-a-Bration set Banner Blast and the coordinating Sale-a-Bration Banner punch. Remember that you get one free Sale-a-Bration item for every $60 in Stampin’ Up! Canada merchandise ordered until the end of March.
This was one of the cards I took along to Morning Live, but I’m not sure if you got a look at it on screen…and with the travel to and fro I notice now that one of the little banners is a little askew – but hey, as I _always_ say – if the recipient of a handmade card makes a negative comment, then they don’t deserve it!!! LOL Just joking. Kind of.

Oops! I just realized that I hadn’t posted the video from my CHCH TV Morning Live appearance here! I did manage to get it onto the YamStamps Youtube channel….so I’m catching up now! I am always grateful when I’m invited back to be on the Morning Live show – the hosts and crew are fantastic to work with, and we always have fun on air. This past time, I shared some handmade Christmas card ideas – including a fun (and fairly simple to recreate) 3D card. If you have any questions, leave me a message in the comments area below, or contact me.
