Spring is Blossoming!

We've been enjoying some beautiful spring weather here -- hope you are, too!  Both my boys are playing Little League baseball, and my littlest just had his first t-ball game this weekend, which was pretty adorable.  He did well at hitting, and when fielding, managed to catch a ladybug!  We'll be off to another game shortly, but wanted to be sure to pop in here and share quite a bit of news!

First, Stampin' Up! has grab bags available right now!  While supplies last, you can get a $5, $10, or $15 grab bag in the online store.  Each bag contains discontinued products, such as ribbons, Accents & Elements, chipboard, Designer Series Paper, or Simply Sent kit components. The $5 grab bag has at least $20 worth of discontinued product, the $10 bag has at least $40, and the $15 bag has at least $60.  Grab bags do not contain stamp sets or tools.  I've already ordered mine, and am looking forward to getting it tomorrow -- I'll let you know what's in it!  Also, these have been going quickly, so head on over to my store to shop now if you'd like your own grab bag (or two . . . or three . . .). 

Second, the Spring is Blossoming promotion has started!  This is a sneak peek at the beautiful Four Frames stamp set and gorgeous new Paisley Prints Designer Series Paper, which will be in the new Idea Book & Catalog to be released later this summer!  The sneak peek purchase period lasts until the end of April, and during it, you have two ways to get your hands on these beautiful new products!  You can order them with a $20 minimum purchase, or if get them FREE with a qualifying workshop!!!  For more details and to see these products, click here.  If you'd like information about booking a workshop with me, please email me!

I actually have a note card to share with you using both the Paisley Prints DSP and the Four Frames set (I love how this set coordinates perfectly with the Decorative Label Punch!)  I created these note cards as thank yous to give to my hostess club members with their March orders -- hope they liked them!

The image was stamped in Chocolate Chip.  I colored the bird as a robin, picking up Cherry Cobbler classic ink from my ink pad with a blender pen.  I traced around the stamped frame image with my Marina Mist marker.  The "thanks" image is from the Fabulous Phrases stamp set.  And, I finished off by spritzing a little Marina Mist ink from the marker onto the label using my Spritzer Tool.  You can catch a glimpse of some Marina Mist designer paper from the package under the label, but the larger sheet of it is so beautiful, I couldn't resist taking this photo to show off the note card on it:

Okay, that's a lot of info!  There's also a lot of My Digital Studio news to share with you -- but I'll save that for tomorrow's post! 

And, if you haven't noticed yet, there's a new page on my blog with information on my upcoming classes.  You can check it out by clicking here. 

Thanks for stopping by!
