Stampin Up has put their new Stitched Framelits out for sale now instead of waiting for next years catalog.  Ovals, squares and circles come with the set (4 of each for a total of 12).  All the framelits come with a stitched look around them, adding the perfect detailing to your project.  In addition, they are offering several stamp sets that go perfectly with the framelits for 25% off.  Some from the Holiday catalog and some from the Annual catalog.  Above is the flyer showing the sets that are on sale.  The 25% off sale runs through the end of the month.

In addition to the above great deal, Stampin’ Up is running an online extravaganza for black friday starting on Monday the 21th through the 28th.  Some products are only discounted on the 21th and the 28th for 24 hours.  Other products run for the entire week and are either 10, 20, 30 or 40% off!  Please see online-extravagana-product-list-us-1-1 for details.  Here is a picture of some of the deals for Monday, November 21th.

onlineex_flash-shareable_nov2116_sp   Let me recap some of the deals I think are great:  The Big Shot Magnetic Platform will be 35% off on November 28th for 24 hours.  The regular price is $40.00 and on that sale day will be $26.00.  That’s a great deal for this must have.  The Holly Berry punch, regularly $18.00 will be marked down all week to $10.80.  The Stitched with Cheer project kit is also marked down all week from $24.00 to $14.40.  This is really a great deal as you can make 18 cards for the holidays.  You do need some additional supplies like ink, stamps and adhesive, but if you are local, I can provide them if we can get together to assemble the kit together.  Stampin’ Up’s holiday card kits have been awesome in the past and this one is no exception.  If you have ever wanted to try Paper Pumpkin, now is the time as there are a couple of kits (and some refills)  being offered at 30% off.  If you become a paper pumpkin subscriber I also provide additional materials to make some extra goodies with the kits.  The Heart confetti border punch is also available all week for 30% off which is a must for Valentines’ projects.

Next week’s sale items will be available in my on-line store (with pictures) starting Monday, November 21th.  Here is the link to my on-line store http://darleneseitz.stampinup.net .  If you have any questions or would like me to place the order for you, please contact me at darstz@hotmail.com or leave a comment on this blog.

STAR OF LIGHT CARDS

2016 S.U. Holiday Catalog, 2016-2017 Stampin Up annual catalog, Cards, Christmas, deals, Holidays, pictures 3 Comments

Here is a card made from the stamp set Star of Light from Stampin Up.  I used pool party and sweet sugarplum as the colors with frosted metallic sequins which come in the colors of soft sky (very close to pool party), sweet sugarplum and silver.  I used the pool party and sweet sugarplum glitter ribbon as well.  Then I added a few rhinestones .  I just love these colors together and was inspired by the two glitter ribbons and sequins that I had.  This is a beautiful stamp set that comes with 21 stamps including greetings.  There is also a matching set of dies which includes 7 dies (see the next card below for use of die).  This is such a great value and even better when you buy the two items together as a bundle.  You get 10% off when you bundle.

This card was inspired and CASEd from Renee Torres and uses the same stamp set, Star of Light.  In this one I used two dies from the Starlight Thinlits that match the stamp set.  I used the same colors as the first one above.  I stamped the star on pool party and then cut it out with one of the dies and cut the second layer of the star in white using another of the dies. I also used the Frosted Metallic Sequins on this card.

This last card is also made from the Star of Light stamp set. Here I used grey and pool party and the design was from the CASEing Tuesday challenge which used the card on page 48 of the Holiday Catalog (far left) as the sample.  I used the large star stamp and added rhinestones to it.  The layers are some DSP (no longer available) and the pool party glitter ribbon (on sale in our clearance rack for under $3.00).  Then a layer of grey with the sentiment on it.  I embossed the lower pool party layer with the Falling Snow Textured Embossing Folder found in the 2016-2017 Annual Catalog.

Please visit my online store at darleneseitz.stampinup.net if you are interested in buying this stamp set or matching dies.  Also please check out the clearance rack for lots of great deals, many under $3.00.   There are also other great holiday items in both the annual catalog and the holiday catalog.  I also sell ready made cards, like the ones above in sets for the holidays and all year long for any occasion.  If you are interested, please email me at darstz@hotmail.com or leave a comment on this post and I will send you details and choices.

Hope you all are having a great weekend and as always,

Happy Crafting
