Mar 10, 2015 | Announcements, specials, Stampin' Up!
Time for the next batch of Stampin’ Up! Canada Weekly Deals! First of all, though, some sad news 🙁 Blendabilities have been unavailable to order / on backorder for the past while, and Stampin’ Up! has had to make the difficult decision to discontinue this line at this time. They were having quality control issues – apparently there were an unacceptable amount not passing muster before they left the manufacturer. While I’m sad to see the Blendabilities discontinued, at the same time, I am reassured that the company has taken this step since the product wasn’t meeting their standards. It does give me faith that they believe in producing quality items. In the meantime, I don’t believe that any of my customers at this point in time have any outstanding orders for Blendabilities, and the people in the Thursday Blendabilities class are covered – all the markers arrived before the item codes were turned off and unavailable. For those of you that have Blendabilities, enjoy them, and use them. Don’t let them sit on a shelf!! If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
In the meantime to cheer you up, here’s the latest group of deals.
Click on the image or HERE to be taken directly to the Weekly Deals in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store. Don’t forget that if you select $60 in merchandise, you get to add in a Sale-a-Bration item! I love how the Wildflower Meadow stamp and Embossing Folder coordinate…so that’s a fave on my list this week!

No, not a reference to that 50 Shades movie….a reference to all the ribbon and twine in the offering this week for Stampin’ Up!’s Weekly Deals! Click on the link beside each item to see it in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store – or click here to see all the specials at once. This week, I’ve got my eye on a few things – I don’t think you can EVER go wrong by having a stash of white ribbon of some sort, and I also love the colour blue… so may have to grab both of those this week!
By the way, please leave me some feedback – either by email or in the comments below – to let me know which format you prefer for the Weekly Deals – the individual items like today, or the “at a glance” posts like last week.

I hope you had a good Family Day (if you’re here in Ontario!). We had a relaxing day around here, and I had the opportunity to be on The Night Side on NewsTalk 1010 Radio last evening! I was interviewed on turning Passion into Profit (around here known as “50 Shades of Cardstock” LOL). I will post a link to the audio file that they kindly sent to me. It was a fun experience. If you would like to know more about having your own Stampin’ Up! business, check out this page here or contact me for more information.
In the meantime – here are this week’s deals! Great buy on the Designer Series Paper! Click on this link or the image to see the items in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. In the meantime, happy shopping! (and if you’re in my neck of the woods – stay warm!!)

Tada! Here are this week’s deals from Stampin’ Up! Canada at a glance. Click on the image or HERE to see all the specials in my online store. This week the specials include the From the Garden Photopolymer bundle which is a current item from the Occasions store. The Bundle is normally already discounted 15%, so you’re getting an EXTRA good deal here – but only until Feb 16th so don’t hesitate.
Seems like it might be a bit of a boring Tuesday around here this week…no TV appearances for me, no meeting lead singers of groups I’ve admired for years…*sigh* Might have to do some paper crafting to make myself feel better….

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.
