Stamp Time Somewhere

Looking for a perfect, easy, Mother's Day Gift?

Well, I wanted to share with you a SIMPLE, EASY and THOUGHTFUL Mother's Day gift idea with you - 

A Paper Pumpkin Subscription!

 Mom's tend to be BUSY (no shock there) and a lot of times we forget to take time for ourselves, but with Paper Pumpkin, it's EASY to just open up that fun little box and take an hour to yourself to be creative.

 I am sure that you can think of someone who would LOVE the opportunity to escape in to creativity for a while every month. There are so many ways to gift Paper Pumpkin - check it out - 

1 month pre-paid subscription - $19.95

3 month pre-paid subscription - $59.85

6 month pre-paid subscription - $113.70

12 month month pre-paid subscription - $215.40 (this also qualifies you for FREE Hostess credit!)

An open ended Subscription - $19.95 per month

 

Over the next week I will be sharing some ideas using previous Paper Pumpkin Kits, but you can also see some fun videos and ideas on the Paper Pumpkin Facebook Page and the Paper Pumpkin Pinterest Board!

I hope I helped you out a little today by making your Mother's Day Shopping just a little bit easier.

Fancy Friday - So long, farewell....Sad to say goodbye....

 Welcome back to Fancy Friday! This month is all about saying goodbye. Stampin' Up! just released their annual retirement list, and it's a large one! 

 So for my card today I chose a LOT of retiring items. Retiring stamp set, colors, punch, embossing folder, glimmer paper.....

 I admit it, the 2013-2015 In Colors are by FAR my most favoritest colors EVER. ESPECIALLY Crisp Cantaloupe and my BELOVED Coastal Cabana. I will weep for them. I will also shed tears for the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing folder and it's amazing versatility. The Champagne Glimmer Paper was a go-to for me too....

 These items, along with the other retiring items are available ONLY WHILE SUPPLIES LAST, and some are ON SALE up to 50% off. PLEASE, don't wait if there is stuff that you want. You can click on the link below to make it easy for you. I have special gifts for everyone who orders from me this month if you use this Hostess Code - VE93CNNP

Head on over to my Fancy girl friend the fabulous Mrs. Jennifer Timko and check our her fancy take on this month's challenge!

Here are the supplies that I used:

MDS Monday 110 - Whimsical Sketch

Hi friends!

 Hi, remember me??? I honestly don't remember when I took that long of a blogging break. It's been YEARS. A busy Sale-A-Bration, plus the start of baseball season and a HORRIBLE allergy season have just thrown me totally off my game.

 Yapha created the cutest, "whimsical" sketch for us this week to use some Designer Papers and fun angles on....

Now, I did make a few changes, but that is the beauty of a sketch - it's an inspirational starting point!!! I don't think mine looks whimsical at all.... but that often happens when scrapping boys.

 

 I'm trying to MDS like crazy to take advantage of the HUGE sale coming up before it officially retires at the beginning of June.

You should TOTALLY play along in this challenge.

In case you missed it, here is the latest from Stampin' Up! on MDS - 

 

While Stampin' Up! previously announced that the MDS product line would be unavailable after Sunday, May 31, 2015, it is excited to let you know that all of its MDS items will be included in the upcoming Retired List promotion from April 21-June 2, 2015.  Digital downloads, software, and print products will all be discounted by 30 percent and are guaranteed to be available through the end of the promotion (MDS software discs are available while supplies last). Click here to see a list of products, including promotional prices for each item.

 

New Dates
Stampin' Up! has extended the availability date for MyDigitalStudio.net, the digital download manager, and its MDS YouTube, Facebook, and Pinterest pages through midnight, June 9, 2015. Demonstrators and customers may call Demonstrator Support for assistance with MDS until Demonstrator Support closes at 7:00 PM (MT) on Tuesday, June 9.

 

Project Life
The Let’s Get Away Digital Project Life Card Collection by Stampin’ Up! from the occasions catalog was posted on the ProjectLife.com website yesterday and is currently available for 20 percent off.  For the foreseeable future, all Digital Project Life card collections will be made available through the ProjectLife.com store.  (There are both Project Life by Stampin' Up! and Project Life digital downloads at that site.)  I've never tried to download something from this site, but I plan on buying the Let's Get Away download, so I'll let you know what I find out. 

 

Future Updates
While Stampin' Up! will not sell MDS after June 2, 2015 or offer support for MDS after June 9, 2015, it is working on a solution for you to continue to be able to use your digital downloads and order print products. Stay tuned for updates.

 

Stampin' Up! hopes you enjoy the Retired List promotion—and that the extended deadlines will be helpful to both demonstrators and customers as it phases out the MDS product line.

 

So, that's a little encouraging!  I'll keep you updated as I learn more information. 

We Create Blog Hop - April Showers

 Happy April!

    Welcome to this month's hop. Our theme this month is "April Showers" focusing on Baby or Wedding showers! I PROMISE I can make things other than banners, but I forgot I shared a banner last month when I did this one!

 

This combines the Baby's First Framelits with the Little Letters Thinlits. The letters are actually inlaid, it looks so cool!

 

Head on over to Julie's blog - I know she'll have something great to share with you today!
