Happy December!

Another newsy update – promise more crafty updates to follow!

last chance sale

First of December kicks off the Last Chance Sale – selected retiring product from the July-December Mini Catalogue is on sale while supplies last / to the end of the catalogue sales period – whichever comes first. Shortcut to see the available Last Chance sales items in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store here.

You can download the spreadsheet version of the Last Chance items here

You can download the pdf version of the Last Chance items here

There are some items that will “carry over” – some items will be available to order until the beginning of May, but won’t appear in any catalogue. There are some items that will return in a future publication.

You can download the spreadsheet version of the Carry Over items here

You can download the pdf version of the Carry Over items here

The Clearance Rack has also been restocked!

You can grab retired product at a discount – including some of those limited time coordinating dies like the Birthday Piggies! Check out the Clearance items here. Again, these items are available while supplies last.

As always, if you would like assistance placing your order or want to pay by etransfer, you can contact me with your list! If you are local to Burlington ON and have a smaller order, you can also take advantage of any group orders I have going in – I’ll add your order to ones I have from other people. It saves you a bit on the shipping costs, but you do run the risk of items selling out before we hit the threshold for the 11% shipping rate, so depends on how much of a gambler you are! If you have any questions, just let me know.

In the meantime, happy December! Stay warm! I’m off to a few Santa Claus parades this weekend, so you know I’ll be bundling up and looking for my hot chocolate afterwards!

Hanukkah Card

Sharing a version of a triple cube card that we made in Stampers Club and Card Class to Go. This is a fun 3D pattern, and once you’ve made one, it’s pretty straightforward (really!). I used this sentiment from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set to create a Hanukkah Card.

Hanukkah Card

The lovely thing about this design is that if you fold/flatten the bottom cubes upward, the card will fit in a medium Stampin’ Up! envelope for easy mailing! If you were at Stampers Club, you will remember that it had to be pointed out to me… LOL. I thought I’d messed it up because it didn’t fit in the card, but I was flattening the bottom boxes down vs up – so that the flat card was 6″ long rather than 4″….*sigh* If you’ve been around the Stampin’ Up! / cardmaking world for a while, this is a variation on the “2-4-6-8″ box design (your cardstock is scored at 2” increments, then folded to create a box/cube).

Here’s one where you just change out the sentiment…

triple cube card

I love the Snowflake Splendo(u)r Designer Series Paper that’s decorating this card, and it’s part of the Year End Closeout Sale – so it’s on sale until the end of the August-December Catalogue sales period (January 4) or while supplies last whichever comes first.

So probably the only thing I’d change on this Hanukkah Card is the placement of the Designer Series Paper in the bottom boxes. I put it on the bottom portion – but next time I would put it on the “back” portion, to cover the little “legs” that hold the sentiment in the centre. The things you notice when you go to take photos of your projects…LOL. (Either that or next time I take the photo from a different angle…).

As well as the Year End Closeout Sale, the Clearance Rack has been refreshed – so there’s plenty of bargains to be had right now. I noticed that there are some individual Stampin’ Blends Markers up for grabs – because they’re currently only sold in pairs – so if you need a replacement or really like a certain colour you should get it while supplies last! As always, please contact me if you have any questions, or need assistance placing an order. Sometimes technology does not play nicely – believe me, I know – so if you’re having issues trying to complete an order at YamStamps.com/shop , please contact me. I can often enter orders from the “back end” of the Stampin’ Up! system for you, and still have it shipped directly to your door.

In the meantime – stay warm, happy shopping and Happy Hanukkah!

Snowflake Card for a Friend

While I know that I’ve been doing the Twelve Weeks of Christmas Projects for YamStamps subscribers, I’m still caught off guard with the fact that Christmas is a month and a half away! Today’s snowflake card for a friend was one that I created for a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator only swap featuring products from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalogue. Snowflakes are one of my favourite “themes” for seasonal and holiday cards.

Snowflake Card for a Friend

I used the Snowflake Wishes Discounted Bundle that includes the Snowflake Wishes stamp set and coordinating So Many Snowflakes Dies. I knew I wanted to use the “window” die and then played around with layouts until I was happy. I die cut the Night of Navy cardstock layer, and then also die cut a piece of Vellum Cardstock. I embossed the Vellum Cardstock with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder and then turned the layers so that window matched up but the die cut snowflakes did not to add some more interest. I added some bling with the Blue Adhesive Backed Gems because everything is better with something shiny!

I adhered the Vellum to the cardfront with Glue Dots and tried to place them behind snowflakes so they weren’t quite as visible. I hid a couple of them with the gems, and now that I look at this photo, could have added a few more gems?!

I love the fact that this snowflake card for a friend could be a holiday card but could also be a birthday card, friendship card or just because card during this season. Burlington is entering “Red Zone Status” for the pandemic as of Monday, so I think it’s an important time to keep in touch with people while keeping socially distanced.

If you’re looking for ways to keep busy, consider purchasing one of my Card Classes to Go – the “regular” versions feature a variety of projects, and the Holiday Card Class to Go focuses on holiday cards only. Each class has the precut materials for four different cards, plus a printout with a photo of the completed project and step by step instructions. You can add sentiments from your own stash or shop the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store (shortcut: YamStamps.com/shop) for the ones I use in the samples. Contact me for payment links and more information. Each class cost is $20 and includes postage within Canada.
