Today begins my 12 Weeks of Christmas series of weekly emails with a different Christmas idea every week! We’ll have cards, gifts, bags, tags, and wrapping ideas!  The only way you can see these projects is to be on my mailing list! These particular projects will NOT be on my blog or Facebook page, so you will definitely want to be on my list and get them delivered to your email address!  And the only way to get all 12 is to sign up before the first one goes out this afternoon.

Just use the Mailing List Sign-Up Box on the right or HERE and be sure to confirm your subscription when you receive my first email in a few minutes after signing up. Then my emails will be on their way to you!  I hope you will enjoy them and be inspired to make some things for the holidays! This is a gift ONLY for my mailing list subscribers.

If you are already on my mailing list, no need to do anything.  You’ll start receiving the 12 Weeks of Christmas this afternoon!

The new “Best of 25 Years” stamp set from Stampin’ Up!. in honor of their 25th anniversary has been released!  It is the Best of Christmas stamp set and contains four favorite images.  If you are looking for more Christmas choices in stamps, here are a few!

Remember, if you purchase 6 of these “Best of 25 Years” stamp sets, you get to send in your stickers that come with each set and choose a FREE stamp set valued at $14.95 or less.

And for even more choices in Christmas stamps (besides the ones in the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog!), there are these Holiday Single Stamps (really neat – 50% larger than shown!) or these carryover stamp sets from last year in my post HERE.

Shop for ANY Christmas stamps and accessories at my Stampin’ Up! Online Store!

It’s that time of year again!  Time for my 12 Weeks of Christmas! What is the 12 Weeks of Christmas?? It’s a free gift for my Mailing List Subscribers! Each week, starting THIS week, subscribers will receive an email containing a project idea for a holiday card, gift, tag or wrapping, along with all the directions to make it! These emails are ONLY for my Mailing List Subscribers so if you haven’t signed up to be on my list, please do it today!

If you are already on my mailing list, no worries!  You are IN!  You don’t need to do anything! But if you have a friend who also might enjoy weekly holiday projects, just have them sign up too!

Getting these 12 Weeks of Christmas emails is really fun so I hope you will join us! I try to choose projects that I think you will enjoy and can make easily. We’ll start with ideas for Christmas cards for several weeks, then progress to gift ideas, and finally something to wrap them in, box them up in, or cute tags to make for your gifts.

These projects will not be on my blog or my Facebook page, so the only way you can get them is via my email list! I appreciate those who sign up for my mailing list and this is something special only for them. So if you have been visiting my blog, please sign up in the Mailing List Sign-Up Box in the upper right corner of my blog!

***Remember, when you do sign up you DO have to CONFIRM your subscription (just good email practice) so watch your email for a few minutes and see if that comes through.  Open and click on the link inside to confirm your subscription which gives us permission to send emails to you.  Be sure to complete this step so you will officially be on my list!

Go ahead! Sign up now! Only 48 hours until the first email goes out!

Today I am working on a Christmas project for my Twelve Weeks of Christmas special newsletter that will start coming out soon. I’ll give you the details later but if you are reading this, be sure you are on my Mailing List so you will get this special edition of my newsletter in the twelve weeks leading up to Christmas!  (Hard to believe, I know!)

Just fill out the information in the Mailing List Sign-Up Box on the right and get your free gift! Within a few minutes you will receive a confirmation email which you MUST open, read, and click the link to CONFIRM that we have your permission to send you our newsletter.  You’ve undoubtedly done this for other company emails.  If you don’t receive that email, either try signing up again, check your Spam folder and your multiple Gmail folders, or let me know and I’ll try to help!  Some people are signing up in the box but not confirming and that doesn’t get you anywhere.  But as in all things “computer”, we know there are sometimes glitches! So let me know if you have any problems!

Sign up now and receive my October newsletter next week and you’ll be all ready for the Twelve Weeks of Christmas newsletters with a new holiday idea every week!

If you have looked at the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog, you probably wondered what happened to all the holiday stamp sets that were usually in the front of the catalog.  Stampin’ Up! is making the annual catalog more of a core catalog and then the extra “mini” catalogs (which aren’t so mini anymore!) will have the newest seasonal and on trend stamp sets and products. And if the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog isn’t enough excitement, the new Holiday Catalog will be out August 1st!!

Having said all that, there are some past holiday sets, framelits, and punches that are being carried over and are still available! Certainly some of these are favorite sets!

Click the image above to view the WHOLE document (there are three pages!) or click this link here to view the entire list in the document.

You can also go to my Stampin’ Up! Online Store here to view “Online Stamps”……however, that won’t bring up the punch pack or the framelits.

Here’s the list with links! (I’m putting in the clear-mount stamps but you can also choose wood-mount)

January 2, 2013 is the last day for the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog!  Wow! How time flies! I feel a bit sad since everyone loved this catalog….so many great products for everything from Halloween to Hanukkah to Christmas to cookies to jars to fall to love to My Digital Studio! If you received your new Stampin’ Up! Spring Catalog you will see that some items from the Holiday Catalog can still be ordered….and who knows what might pop up in the new Annual Catalog when that comes out…..but you better take a minute today to browse through here at least one more time and see if there is anything you can’t live without!

Then hop over to my Online Store and place your order! Be sure to check the Clearance Rack because Stampin’ Up! added 15 new items over the holidays.  Only available while supplies last on the Clearance Rack!

And if you are tired of the holiday stuff and are ready for the gorgeous new products in the Spring Catalog, just hold on ONE MORE DAY!

If you don’t have a demonstrator, and would like a copy of the new Spring Catalog, please email me and I’ll send you a copy in the mail.
