Christmas Card Challenge with Among the Branches from Stampin' Up!

Good Morning My Stamping Friends,

I've decided that I'm going to attempt to post a Christmas Card for each day in December (maybe not one every day, but one for every day of the month). So here I am already catching up on my personal challenge - It turns out that I have to change some settings on my blog in order to make the emails that I've been sending, actually POST to the blog. Ooooops.

Today's card uses the stamp set Among The Branches and some snowflake Designer Series Paper from the Season of Cheer paper pack. Both of these items are retiring from the Holiday Catalog and are only available while supplies last. If you want to order these items, please visit www.RoseEllenEastman.StampinUp.com

Feel free to join me and post a photo of YOUR Christmas card in the comments here, or in the comments of one of my challenge cards on my facebook page.

Merry Christmas to all,

Rose-Ellen

I'm saying Goodbye to Stampin' Up!.........

...NO, NO NO, My Stamping Friends.....Not the way you think. I'm NOT going to stop being your demonstrator, but I am saying goodbye to some of my favorite Stampin' Up! stamp sets and accessories. Can you believe its that time of year already? Its time for the annual list of Retiring Stamp Sets and Retiring Accessories.

In case you didn’t see this posted on my business facebook page (www.facebook.com/StampinUpWithRoseEllen ) and in case you didn’t get the e-postcard that I sent out through my Stampin’ Up! website (let me know if you want to be on my email list) I thought I’d post the info here to catch you up on a few things.

·         The list of RETIRED STAMPS and RETIRED ACCESSORIES has been posted. This year EVERYTHING on these list is only available WHILE SUPPLIES LAST (usually the stamp sets are available until the end of the catalog, but this year they are ‘while supplies last’ as well) and believe it or not, some accessories and stamp sets are already SOLD OUT.  Every year I get an order for something from a client that I can’t fulfill because an item is sold out, so PLEASE take less than 5 minutes right now to check it over (even if you don’t think there is something you want or need) and get your orders in quickly. You can order online AND we are OFFERING FREE SHIPPING until 4/25 so items can be sent straight to your house.

·         There are several ways to see the lists of retiring items:

o   Here is a list of everything, with images of each item (Stamp sets AND accessories). You can shop there too!

o   Here is a PDF list of Retiring Stamps (available April 21- June 4, 2014, or WHILE SUPPLIES LAST) 

o   Here is an Excel Spreadsheet of Retiring Stamps (available April 21- June 4, 2014, or WHILE SUPPLIES LAST)

o   Here is a PDF list of Retiring Accessories (available April 21- June 4, 2014, or WHILE SUPPLIES LAST)

o   Here is an Excel Spreadsheet of Retiring Accessories (available April 21- June 4, 2014, or WHILE SUPPLIES LAST)

·         Are you an Digital Scrapbooker or CardMaker, check out our latest digital downloads for our digital scrapbooking program, My Digital Studio, and which can also be used in most any digital scrapbooking or clipart program you already own. Just click here.

Finally I want to make sure you’ve penciled in our Mother’s Day Weekend Scrapbooking and CardMaking event at the Dunn Loring Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department on May 9^th and 10^th.  You can bring all your own supplies and work on your projects or you can sign up for one of the classes I’m hosting, OR you can do both!  The final information will be posted in a few days.

 I hope you’re having a wonderful day and let me know if you have any questions at all,

Betsy's Blossoms and Itty Bitty Banners by Stampin' Up!

I was so, so, so stinkin' excited to get my box of sneak peek goodies that I ordered from Stampin' Up! this week (an awesome benefit of being a demonstrator is that we get to order products one month before they are available to the public).I wish I could show you photos of all the products in my box of goodies, but at this point, I'm only allowed to show projects, not products.

I finally got a few minutes to stamp and play around for a bit on Sunday and here is what I came up with.

I had several frames that I picked up at a craft store years ago, sitting on my desk (honestly, they were waiting to go in the donation box) and as soon as I saw this wonderfully colorful Designer Series Paper from from the Floral District pack, I knew I had to alter the frame. I cut the

The "Last Chance" lists are here.....

Hey there My Stamping Friends,


I know you've all been waiting with bated breath....ok, well maybe you're off doing other things and you were going to look for the list later on tonight, but either way the Last Chance Lists (also known as the Retiring List) are here and some of the accessories on this list are already gone for good. If there is something on your wish list please contact me ASAP so we don't run the risk of the item selling out before your order is placed. Don't forget that you can also order directly from my website at http://www.roseelleneastman.stampinup.net/

Below you'll see the Last Chance Stamp Set list.

If you are looking for the Last Chance Accessory List, you can find it on my website here or you can contact me and I can e-mail you a copy of the most current list. Stampin' Up! will be updating the list at 6pm ET daily so you can see what is sold out and no longer available.

If you want me to e-mail you a copy of the Last Chance Stamp List just let me know.

I'm off to sit with my catalog and my Last Chance list to make my plans for upcoming clubs, classes and workshops.

Happy Stamping,

Rose-Ellen
