At first glance, you just might pass over the “Special Reason Bundle” as another floral stamp set and framelit die set. But, once you look closer, you’ll see that this die set is like no other. Stampin’ UP! has just taken their framelit dies to a whole new level.
The die is in 2 pieces; one to cut out the detail and the other to cut out the shape. By using them separately, you can create really cool effects that you can’t do with other standard framelit and thinlit dies. Watch this video below to see how this works:
See what I mean? Don’t you just think these are to die for? I know that you are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new catalogs so you can get your hands on them! As a demo, you can get them now!

And I couldn’t be happier! My blog has been knocked out service since Oct. 19th!!! I’ve been (patiently) waiting for it to be restored. And while I was able to have my blog restored, I did lose all of my October blog posts. A small price to pay, as I was prepared with the possibility of losing everything and having to start all over.
It’s been a long time, and boy, do I have a lot to share with you! For starters, look at this!I had a fabulous time at the OnStage Event in Secaucus, NJ last weekend where I got to get the new 2017 catalogs. It was a fun-filled time spent with my downline, and other demo’s from the Northeast, gathered at the Meadowlands Convention Center. I’ll share more about my trip to OnStage in a blog post later this week.
The highlight was the catalog reveal of the 2017 Occasions catalog (January 4 through May 31) and the 2017 Sale-A-Bration catalog (January 4 – March 31). This is my favorite perk of being a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – I get to see the catalogs BEFORE they are revealed, and order product from those catalogs! If you want to enjoy this perk yourself, then join me in this incredible Stampin’ Up! journey! For the cost of the starter kit, $99, you get all this and more! Talk to me about getting your starter kit today. You can join just for the perks, and stay for the discount, or drop without any obligation.
I’ve had the chance to play with one of the soon to be released stamp sets called Cool Treats. This is going to be one of my favorite stamp sets. It’s so fun and playful. I’ve made my November birthday cards from this set, and it’s so much cheery; I can’t wait until the coordinating product suite gets delivered to me tomorrow. (Why didn’t I choose Express Shipping? The wait is so long!)
Another stamp set is called “Nailed It”. I won this stamp set during Prize Patrol, and I am so happy I did. I made this card for my hubby as soon as I got home. The sentiment was perfect, and since he’s a woodworker, the tools are perfect for him.
Here’s me so happy I won this at Prize Patrol:
You can see how happy I am. I know you are sharing in my happiness, thank you. So now I want to share something else that will make you happy too!

Today’s post is a Good-bye of sorts, but in an exciting way! Every year, approx. 1 month before Stampin’ Up! releases their annual catalog, they release a list of products that will be retiring. Since these items won’t be carried over to the new catalog, this is the last chance to grab those items before they are gone for good.
So with the posting of the Retired List (farewell), it’s also a great chance to score some good bargains as some of these items are on sale too. I think it’s nice that Stampin’ UP! gives us a heads up on what won’t be making it into the new catalog so we have the opportunity to grab those items before they are gone.
The 2014-2016 In Colors will be retiring so now is the time to stock up on cardstock, ink pads, reinkers, markers, ribbon, etc. before your favorite colors from this collection are gone. Typically, the In Colors are the first to sell out.
LAST CHANCE TO GET THESE RETIRING PRODUCTS! SAVE UP TO 50% on a huge inventory of select Stampin’ Up! retiring products including stamps, punches, dies, ribbon, designer series paper and much more. The sale starts TODAY (April 18). Stamps will be available at least through May 22. Accessories (“everything else”) are only availablewhile supplies last and can sell out quickly. See ALL retiring Stampin’ Up! products on this printable PDF OR in my store here.
One of my favorite stamp sets retiring from the Occasions catalog is called Apple of My Eye. Here are two cards I made with this set previously that just might cause you to scoop this stamp set up before it retires.
Lost Lagoon and the Flowering Fields DSP from Sale-A-Bration make the perfect backdrop for these luscious lemon slices. Wink of Stella gives the lemon a citrus shine!
This is so summery and citrus-y and it is a total Pinterest CASE! I cannot take credit for this design but the color combo and the sweet sentiment had me head over heels!
I hope you get the items you want before they are gone. My advice: I mark my catalog(s) with a red “R” next to every item that is retiring. Then I can go thru the catalog and easily see what is retiring. The Retiring List lets us know which item is in the Occasions Catalog (OC) or Annual Catalog (AC) and the page #. It’s worth the time to me to mark my catalogs.
What I Love – it’s the name of a stamp set available for Free in the 2016 Sale-A-Bration promotion. It was the stamp set that caught my eye and I knew I just had to have when I first got a glimpse of the Sale-A-Bration catalog back in November. I used this at my last Stamp Club, and again to make a birthday card for my sister (her birthday is tomorrow, please feel free to wish her a happy birthday in the comments below!). So let’s see what I made:
And here is the inside: (I love that the sentiment from Grateful Bunch has an ‘inside/outside’ sentiment!)
This is a great card that can be used for any occasion just by changing the sentiment. Christy chose to leave a sentiment off her card so she would have a great card that she could just grab and stamp a sentiment on whenever she needed a card in a hurry! Smart idea, Christy! 🙂
I love how she used a 2nd flower in a complimentary color!
This would look great in just about any color combination too! I made a card and coordinating gift bag using this layout but switched the colors to Tip Top Taupe and Watermelon Wonder.
Here it is with the coordinating gift bag:
I love how the patterns in the Decorative Paper stacks coordinate. The Gift Bag Punch Board allows making custom sized gift bags a cinch! You can watch my video tutorial here to learn how to use the Gift Bag Punch Board:
See, you NEED this stamp set! Get yours today, after today it’s too late! Shop here on line today and for every $50 you will get to choose a free Sale-A-Bration item! Sweet! Choose “What I Love” or any other stamp set or paper of your choice.
Thanks for stopping by; please feel free to PIN any picture you like for future reference, like me on Facebook and leave me a comment below. And don’t forget to wish my sister a Happy Birthday! Thanks,

While you may think this post will have something to do with Christmas or Holiday Traditions, it’s not. December is the time of year Stampin’ UP! demonstrators get to pre-order from the much anticipated Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalogs set to debut in January.
Last year, I needed to send a birthday card to someone celebrating a Christmas birthday, and I had one ready to go. But just then, Mr. Brown (aka UPS driver) delivered a package to my doorstep. Not just any package, but a package from Stampin’ UP! containing NEW PRODUCTS!!! Well, I looked at the clock and decided I had just enough time to open the box, play with my new goodies and create a card for this dear customer/friend who would appreciate a card made with NEW PRODUCTS more than anyone else. So I dashed down to My Stampin’ Space and created a masterpiece, with just seconds to spare before I had to leave for work. I threw my newly created card into an envelope and mailed it, just in the nick of time! I was so proud of that accomplishment, and still made it to work on time.
Days later, instead of a “Thank you, the card you made for me was beautiful, and I’m drooling over the new products” like I expected, I got a “Are you kidding me? The card you sent was blank; you never signed it! Of course you stamped your ‘hand stamped by Nancy’ on the back, but you never signed it! I couldn’t believe it! I felt like an idiot! In my rush to get done, I made and mailed the card but never even signed my name.
So this year, I sent her a card that wasn’t signed ON PURPOSE! After all, the tradition must go on, right? And yes, it was made with lots of new products from the new catalogs.
First, there is this awesome Embossing Folder called Confetti TIEF that just looks like a party in progress. Then then stamp set called Party Wishes; don’t you just love the cake and the sentiment? And the candle punch is part of a punch pack trio called Party Punch Pack (and you can bundle and save with this stamp set and punch pack!) And you noticed that adorable little dot, didn’t you? That’s from the Love Blossoms Embellishment kit.
And the Icing on the Cake? It’s this cool new product called Wink of Stella. It’s a magical paintbrush that adds glittery glimmer without the mess of glitter! There’s no glue, no glitter, just a beautiful glittery shine. See how the candles appear to flicker? This is going to add so much to so many feature projects, I see it as a go-to project enhancer. I can’t wait for you to try it.
Tomorrow I have another project to share with you for the New Year and then I’ll share some more birthday cards, including the one I sent that I DID SIGN!
Don’t forget there are still several ways to shop and save right now:
