Updates from my Social Distancing Corner of the World…

How are you holding up? Since my travel plans were cancelled, I’m hanging out at home. I did manage to get out for a run with some friends on the weekend, and because I don’t run as fast as they do, I maintained social distancing for most of it LOL.

I am thankful for the number of artists who are sharing their talents online – today alone I watched Live streams from the Arkells and Jann Arden. I loved this break from the constant news feed. I managed to do a Facebook Live on the YamStamps Facebook Page as my contribution to a short distraction from the stressors of the day, and I’ve got in my plan to do some more crafting too. I also have income tax prep on my agenda, but that is a stressor in my world so I can only do so much of it before I need to take a break!!

I am cancelling in person classes for the time being – with apologies to those who were planning on attending the Last Chance Sale-a-Bration class. We’ll make arrangements for in person classes once everything has settled down again. ALSO – if you were planning on visiting me at Scrapfest in Kitchener, please note that the event has been POSTPONED and we will let you know when we hear about a new date for the event.

I will continue work on the online class I was preparing, and will endeavour to do some more Live videos in the YamStamps Facebook Group, Facebook Page, and posting on Instagram. Today’s Facebook Live video will be edited and put onto the YamStamps YouTube channel as well.

If you have ideas for some videos I could do for you in the next while, please send me an email or leave a comment on any of the YamStamps social media sites! In the meantime, stay healthy!

On the Road Again – ScrapFest 2020

Hey! Happy to say that I will have a booth at Kitchener Scrapfest 2020! Friday April 17 and Saturday April 18 at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium.

New Products Available Today!

While you get rid of the leftover Halloween candy….here’s some eye candy for you! New Stampin’ Up! products available today for ordering!

First up: the new Paper Trimmer!

Stampin’ Up!’s new Paper Trimmer is available for customer orders today! It has a cutting blade and a scoring blade – and its size can accommodate 12″ x 12″ sheets. I’ve had mine for a few weeks now (demonstrators were able to order this in October) and I am quite liking it!

Next Up….while supplies last (no firm end date) – the Christmastime is Here suite! First of all – do you instantly start singing the song in your head?! I do….

OK so while that’s playing in the background….here’s the Bundle for the suite! It includes the Christmas Rose stamp set (includes both stamp cases in the image), the Roses Dies, (the stamp set and dies are available together in a discounted bundle); Gold Shimmer Ribbon, Gold Glitter Enamel Dots, Christmastime is Here Designer Series Paper and a fun item – the Charming Rose Bracelet. Guess what was first on my list….

Christmastime is Here Suite

If you guessed the bracelet, you’d be correct. Even though it’s gold tone and I’m more of a silver tone girl, I love that it coordinates with a lot of the bangle bracelets that I already have (it’s Alex & Ani style)

By the way – you may notice that the large rose die fits the Designer Series Paper – so if you don’t feel like doing two step stamping? Just die cut the paper that’s already done!
