Hello Stampers!   There’s a super cute stamp set in Stampin’ Up!’s Annual Catalog called Postcard Pals. Here, Niki Green uses that to create a birthday card.

Hello Stampers!   Excitement is “brewing” in anticipation of the release of Stampin’ Up!’s Holiday Catalog. You can start purchasing from it as a customer beginning September 5.   As a demonstrator, I was able to order items early. (I also was gifted some of them on the Stampin’ Up! incentive trip.)

Fun fact: The bat images can be punched directly...

Hello Stampers!   I just returned from Stampin’ Up!’s incentive trip, a cruise to Alaska.

I brought 26 cards of one design and came home with a bag of 25 awesome cards created by demonstrators from throughout the world.   This is the card I created for the swap.
