Sale-a-bration is almost here!

Are you sick of looking at that horrible photo of the snowflake magnets on my fridge yet? The magnets are cute, but the photo is not great! Well, I have been working on some new projects, but nothing is done & ready for posting here on the blog yet. But I thought I would let you know that Sale-a-bration starts next Tuesday, January 25th! Yay! What does this mean? For every $50 you spend on Stampin' Up! product you earn one FREE Sale-a-bration product of your choice! Sweet! You can also earn more free Sale-a-bration products by hosting a workshop of at least $300 or by becoming a demonstrator (you will also get 15% off your starter kit too). This is a great sale opportunity for some great products so if you're interested please email me. And this year besides offering a bunch of stamp sets to choose from there is a designer paper & quick accents pack, a ribbon & button pack, a digital content CD (for use with My Digital Studio or another digital software program) & a chalkboard decor elements product. Super cute stuff!

Valentines

I had a little free time (well, time that I had other, less fun things to do but decided to be crafty instead) the other day so I made a few valentines to send out. I wanted to make them as quick & easy as possible, so I decided to use my new Welcome Neighbor Designer Series Paper Pad from Sale-a-Bration. (Sale-a-Bration = for every $50 you spend you get to pick something free, for more info email me) This paper pad rocks! It is a 6" x 6" pad of designer paper that has 72 sheets total: 3 each of 24 double-sided designs. And so many of the papers were perfect for making valentines! I love using designer paper because then my color scheme is chosen & it helps to make super cute cards without a lot of time or work. Great for this busy mom!

Here's the "masculine" valentine I made to give my husband:

And here are the other valentines I made:

So, nothing fancy, but still pretty cute!

Scrapbook Steals

So just about every day I check out this awesome website called Baby Steals. Each day they offer a new deal on a different baby item. They always have super cute stuff & you can get them at a pretty good price. Well, the other day Baby Steals announced that they are now launching Scrapbook Steals-a website that will feature a different scrapbook item at a discounted price. Awesome! This is going to be dangerous!

Samples From the New Fresh Cut Sneak Peek Promotion!

For this promotion if you buy the Fresh Cuts stamp set (which will be in the Fall-Winter 2008 Idea Book & Catalog, available August 11th, it costs $21.95 for the set of 5 stamps) then you can buy the coordinating Fresh Cut Notes for only $5 (it includes 15 note cards, 4" x 4" size, that have the flower laser-cut in the center, plus you get 15 envelopes). These note cards are so pretty & the creative possibilities are endless! I, believe it or not, am running low on thank you cards so I made a couple yesterday with these new products. Each card took me less than 5 minutes to make! The flower in the center is laser-cut which is perfect for putting solid or patterned paper behind to create an easy & beautiful card.
