Stampin’ Up! has a new collection available starting tomorrow! A few items are previews – they’ll be available in the January-June Mini Catalogue, and a few are exclusive to this order period only.
The Eden’s Garden stamp set and Eden Dies and the discounted bundle that includes both are early releases from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalogue. Exclusive to the promotion period are the Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper, the Ever Eden Cotton Paper (both of these are 12″ x 12″) and the Garden Gems, which are adhesive backed round and marquise shaped gems.
You’ll be able to grab these items starting tomorrow, 2 November 2021 until 3 January 2022. Please note that the exclusive promotion items (the papers and the gems) will be available only while supplies last. You can shop online 24/7 in the YamStamps Stampin’ Up! Canada Store by going to the shortcut https://yamstamps.com/shop (or clicking on the link). You can message me if you’d like assistance placing your order or would like to pay by etransfer.
Woohoo! There’s a new Mini Catalogue available today PLUS it’s Sale-a-Bration again!
First things first….the July-December Mini Catalogue is live! No, you didn’t miss anything – this catalogue’s start date was pushed back for a month. Stampin’ Up! made the decision to delay the start to allow for product and shipping slow downs due to that global pandemic that is ongoing… You can check out the digital version of the July-December Mini Catalogue here; shortcut is https://yamstamps.com/jd21 Despite best planning, there are still a few items that are not yet in the SU warehouses – the Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Card Pack and Cards & Envelopes, and the Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper. This impacts their associated Suites – you know, the “Easy” button that uses one code to get all the products in one suite. For the time being, you won’t be able to order the Gingerbread & Peppermint Suite, nor the Blackberry Beauty Suite. You WILL be able to order the other items in the suite without issue, though, it just means a lot more typing! LOL. (Or message me with your order, and I will do all the entering for you!!).
Next up…it’s time to Sale-a-Brate again! It’s the Summer Sequel! August 3 – September 30, when you place a $60CAD product order (before shipping/taxes), you’ll get to pick a free Sale-a-Bration item! There’s a couple of items that are available at the $120CAD level too. There’s a few items that won’t go on back order – when they’re gone, they’re gone. These are the Be Dazzling Specialty Paper, Sheep Dies and Summer Shadows Dies – so if these have caught your eye, be sure to redeem for these ASAP. You can see the digital version of the Sale-a-Bration Catalogue here – shortcut is https://yamstamps.com/summerSAB21
As always, the shortcut to shop is https://yamstamps.com/shop from anywhere in Canada. If you need assistance placing an order, want to pay for your order with an etransfer, or want more information about becoming a demonstrator with my group, you can email me and I’d be glad to help. In the meantime – Happy Sale-a-Bration!
Here’s an easy fun fold card – though I’m not sure what the true qualifications are for a card to be a fun fold, other than “not the typical card fold”….so since it’s a little vague, I’ve decided that this design qualifies.
Easy Fun Fold Card – Hinged Woodgrain
This card features a mini card that opens traditionally, and it’s attached onto a backing card. It features the woodgrain designs from the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper, which is part of the Designer Series Paper Sale that runs until August 2nd – you can grab it for 15% off while the sale is on!
The dies that cut the “hinges” and the sentiment piece are from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I had some scrap pieces of Copper Foil Sheets with the Adhesive Sheets on the back, so after die cutting the “hinge” pieces, it was simply a matter of removing the adhesive backing and sticking them in place. I ran the rounded end of my Bone Folder along the fold of the card to make a marking in the foil hinge, and so that the mini card would open a little more easily. If you’ve been following YamStamps or have attended a class with me, you’ll know that I cut the backing piece for the sentiment from the bottom layer of Designer Series Paper – because the hole gets hidden by the mini card! This easy fun fold card is also a frugal card…
Easy Fun Fold Card – Open
The mini card itself is a 3″ x 8″ piece of Very Vanilla cardstock folded in half. The front of the mini card is covered by a piece of the lighter woodgrain Designer Series Paper – and it goes across the whole surface, rather than leaving a border, because I liked the effect better. I did still leave a bit of a border between the darker woodgrain paper and the Early Espresso cardstock.
A reminder that the Designer Series Paper sale runs until August 2 – select Designer Series Papers are 15% off. You can place an online order from anywhere in Canada in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store – shortcut is yamstamps.com/shop, or you can email me for assistance placing an order.
Mini Catalogue cover
I’ve had the new Mini Catalogue and Sale-a-Bration catalogue mailed out to current customers, so they should be arriving soon, if they haven’t already! (I’m hand delivering the local ones). If you need a copy of the catalogue and don’t have a current Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, please feel free to contact me to make arrangements to get one! If you’ve already received your copy, you may notice that it’s called the “July-December Mini Catalogue” HOWEVER it will be active on the same start date as Sale-a-Bration – August 3rd. Stampin’ Up! made the decision a few months ago to push back the official start date of the Mini Catalogue to compensate for some shipping delays that were beyond their control, and despite their planning. We are all continuing to navigate our changing situations as best we can, right?! You can be sure that there will be links for the digital versions of the catalogues available through the YamStamps Site, as well as the newsletter that will be released that day as well.
If you are close to Burlington ON and have a smaller order, you can email me before 6pm and I will include it in a group order so that everyone involved qualifies for free shipping. I’ll contact you when the order arrives and you can do a porch pickup in Burlington.
While we anticipate the launch of the 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue tomorrow May 4th, in the meantime, a heads up about a couple of promotions that will also start tomorrow!
First up: JOIN+
Starting tomorrow 4 May until 31 May, you’ll be able to get even more value from your Starter Kit! Choose $206 worth of product for $135CAD. Click on the image or click here to see some info about joining my group of demonstrators. I am having an Info Evening on Thursday 7 May at 7pm via Zoom – message me to RSVP and get a link – or to set up another time that’s more convenient for you.
Next Up: CONNECT, CRAFT & COLLECT
From 4 May to 14 June, you can earn extra Stampin’ Rewards! You receive Stampin’ Rewards when your order total (single order or total workshop order; non cumulative) is $200CAD or more, and during the Connect, Craft & Collect Promotion, you’ll receive an extra $30 at the $300 level and above. Click on the image or here to download the flyer for all the information.
If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment below or message me. I’ll be back tomorrow with links to the digital version of the new catalogue to share!
March 17th ONLY – free shipping on any $65CAD product order! When you place an order that includes $65 worth of product (after any coupons applied / before taxes) you will qualify for FREE shipping – but only if your order is placed TOMORROW, Wednesday, March 17th. Talk about luck!
Place your order at yamstamps.com/shop or message me and I will place your order for you. If you place an order in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store, you can pay by credit card. If I place the order for you, you also have the option of paying by etransfer.
March 17 2021 ONLY
This is a great time to stock up on the retiring In Colours or to purchase prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscriptions. If you prepay your subscription, you can save some money depending on which package you purchase, but you normally also have to pay “shipping” fees – but not if you buy it March 17th! You’ll save even more, and you don’t have to redeem your subscription code right away either….
Please let me know if you have any questions – otherwise, happy shopping!
