I'm getting set to run out the door….well okay, not run, but hobble (more on that later) for my appearance on CH Morning Live today. I'm sharing a number of ideas that you can make for Mother's Day – and this was my favourite that I came up with – a photo bouquet of flowers that need no watering! I'm planning on showing how to make this today, so if something happens with timing and I don't get the details in, I'll be sure to share it here on my www.yamstamps.com blog later on.
Regarding the hobbling – well, I'm moving a little more slowly today as I finished my second marathon yesterday! Happy to complete the Mississauga Marathon and beat my time from my first marathon last year (albeit on a totally different course…).

Apr 30, 2012 | Announcements, Seasonal Catalogue
April 30 is the last day to order from Stampin' Up!'s Occasions Mini Catalogue – however, there will be some items still available after today! Click HERE to download a copy of the list
The Blossom punch is one of the items on the list – but the Mixed Blossoms coordinating stamp set is NOT, so don't miss out on that one!! If you're in Canada, you can place your order here for delivery right to your door. Contact me if you have any questions.
Apr 25, 2012 | Announcements, Retired List
Stampin' Up! has let us know that the Paper Snips and Craft Scissors are NOT retiring, and were included on the list by mistake. These WILL be available in the new catalogue, so cross these off your lists! (Please note that there is no discount on the paper snips, either, since they are not retiring).
I will keep you posted as I'm able regarding availability of accessories.
Apr 25, 2012 | Announcements, Retired List
Stampin' Up! has published the list of retiring accessories. Please note that all these items are available while supplies last – I would recommend purchasing them through my online store HERE so you can be sure to get what you want before supply runs out! You can shop 24/7 anywhere in Canada and the items will be delivered directly to you.
Please note – there are INK PADS on this list – Stampin' Up! has revealed that there will be new a new ink pad style (well, the foam at least) in the new catalogue. A few colours are undergoing a slight formula change, so if you'd like re-inkers for your current ink pad of these colours, get them now. Colours affected are: Basic Black, Basic Gray, Marina Mist, Perfect Plum and Tempting Turquoise. As well, only Basic Black and Whisper White craft ink pads will be carried.
As well – individual Stampin' Write markers will only be available for a select colours, but will still be available to order as colour collections – again, if you need to complete your marker collection and are only missing a few colours, you might want to get shopping.
12" x 12" textured cardstock will no longer be available, and individual packages of smooth 12" x 12" cardstock will be limited to select colours, but will still be available in colour collection packages.
*Phew* – here's the list, in .pdf (need Adobe reader) and sortable excel files for the accessories, and .pdf for the Definitely Decorative items.
Please contact me if you have any questions.

Apr 20, 2012 | cards, Retired List
Upsy Daisy is one of the sets on Stampin' Up!'s Retiring List this year. I really like silhouette images because they can be done in any colour you wish. On this card, the combination of Very Vanilla and Elegant Eggplant is rather elegant, don't you think?! Again using the Labels Collections framelits with the Big Shot, and also using the Adorning Accents Embossing Folders plus coordinating Adorning Accents edgelits to cut and emboss the edge of the front of the card. Dazzling Details adds a finishing touch to the image. We did this in a recent card class. I must remember to take photos _before_ the class because sometimes my samples get a little beat up!
Don't forget to pick up these favourites from my online Stampin' Up! store – you can access this 24/7 with delivery anywhere in Canada!
