Third Week of Ten Weeks of Christmas!

So, if you're not signed up for either my newsletter or the Ten Weeks emails only, what are you waiting for?? :) Email me at poohisstamping@aol.com!

Have a wonderful weekend! Be SURE and STAMP SOMETHING - get going on your cards and gifts! :D

It's THURSDAY!

Almost time for my crazy weekend to start. :D Am I the only one who feels like my weekends need to settle DOWN? :D

Anyway. Today's card is one I made to show my newsletter recipients a tutorial on Poppin' Pastels. If you'd like to get my newsletter, just email me and let me know! :)

It's Very Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, and Ruby Red, with Stampin' Pastels and VersaMark. That's all I used!

Sign up if you want to see HOW I did it. :D Or book a party with me - Sale-a-bration's ONLY going on until the end of this month!

OK, I'm off to finish writing my newsletter. I hope.... :D Have a WONDERFUL day - and take the time to STAMP SOMETHING!!!!!!!

Good Tuesday evening! :)

Where DOES the time go?!?!? SO MUCH is going on right now - Stampin' Up! is gearing up to release the new Fall/Winter Idea Book & Catalog in August, so the Retirement List is out - some great stamp sets are saying goodbye, just like usual. :) But the demonstrators got to have a sneak peek of the new IB&C today - and there are some REALLY fun things, and they ALWAYS save the best for the big book! :)

If you'd like to see the Retired List, go HERE.

Be SURE to sit down with it and your current Spring/Summer book - if you don't have a hard copy, you can find an online one HERE. :) There's also an online Dormant List - these are sets that aren't in the current book, but are still available (at least until August 10, if they're on the Dormant List!). Go HERE to see the Dormant List online!

And NOW, Stampin' Up!® is giving you a discount on a product they're going to be discontinuing. It's the Hodgepodge Hardware that's in the current IB&C, page 188 - and you can look HERE and slide the page finder to 188. :) Don't forget that there's a magnifier at the top, so you can click and drag it to see things better!

SO. :D Have you gone to vote for a card for the ANNUAL BIRTHDAY CHALLENGE???? Go HERE to do that!!!!! Because I messed up and didn't put all of them up at the same time, I'm going to allow voting until JULY 6!!!

Now, then. Here's a sample for you from the eScape, the other one I promised you. :)

Oh, wait, you say! You don't recognize that stamp set - or those NOTES?!?!?!? It was a SNEAK PEEK for JUNE ONLY! That's FRESH CUT, to be out in the Fall/Winter IB&C. It's going to retail for $21.95. The notes? Yeah, they're going to be in there, too. :) They are 4" square, and come with envelopes. They're laser cut. I copied this design from a fellow demo - but loved the mix so much, I did it in LOTS of different colors. :) We did the Tempting Turquoise one for the eScape get-together. That's a Pretties Kit half-pearl, white, in the center. ALL the stamps are from the new set. Now, aren't you sorry you didn't come? :D

Keep your eyes open! :) When I tell you something's new, fresh, exciting - I MEAN IT! :D

Enjoy your evening, dear friend. And for PETE'S sake, take the time to STAMP something!!!

FINAL Stamp Camp Project! :)

It's a fry box with a gift card lid! Isn't it cute?? :) I printed out the box on Whisper White card stock, and we rolled it in Real Red with All About Christmas, a new Jumbo Wheel. The designer label punch worked beautifully with this stamp from the level 1 hostess set, Party Punch, done in Glorious Green on Whisper White. Then, we just punched the corners of Glorious Green and Real Red card stock with a ticket corner punch, and that was DONE. SOOOO easy!!!

Be sure and check out my Stampin' Up! website for the new special for this month - it's a GREAT special!!!!!! I LOVE our punches!! :)

That's it for today - I've been online ALL day, working on getting my monthly newsletter out. :) Parts of me are sore that shouldn't be! LOL!!!!!! Short & sweet for once. :D

Take time to STAMP something today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
