Did you get a chance to shop the big sale yesterday?  We did our best to get the word out on Facebook and to those of you on our mailing list. If you’re not on the A-List, you can get on it here.  We did mention that we saw some extra things on the list.  We just didn’t realize until mid morning how cool the stuff was!

We were both taken by surprise!  Congratulations to Terri, Jan, Mary Anne & Carole who got in there and scored the Good Greetings set before they were all sold out.  It’s one of my favorite limited edition sets ever!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I hope you can take a minute away from your last minute preparations to take a look at what’s on sale in limited quantity for big discounts.

Let’s look at what I thought was the best of what was available as of last night because Stampin’ Up! has never in my 9 years put stuff from a seasonal catalog on sale before the catalog is over with.  (And I wouldn’t count on them doing it again any time soon.)

This Specialty Designer Series Paper was featured in Monday’s post.  It was behind the snowman.  But it’s also grrreat for boxes!

Whether you make your boxes from scratch or used the Gift Box Punch Board, this stuff is perfect!  It’s a bit stiff than our card stock, but not so stiff that it’s difficult to fold.

And a grrrreat value at $5.19 – over half off!

Now THIS one’s a sleeper!

People either love or “dis-love” those skinny Santa Claus’s on page 29 of the Holiday Seasonal Catalog.  But the skinny Santa’s are only on ONE side of ONE piece of paper!  And you can still make some pretty nice cards with the other 11 patterns!

One print was featured on yesterday’s birthday card.  And here’s a card that we shared when this pup discovered that there are still a lot of really nice patterns on there for some wonderful winter cards.  (However, I would make this a birthday card next time.)

This was our favorite ribbon for the holidays in 2013.

If you’re already on our mailing list, then you’ve seen the special technique video that we did for our subscribers.  If you’re not on the list, be sure to get on our list here so you can see this technique too.

Just barking here for 60% off!

 

Put a couple of these on earring wires or posts with another one hanging from a matching necklace and you’ve got a pretty cool gift for a dear friend.

You can even add a pearl or rhinestone or Candy Dot in the middle!

Such a deal!

 

Now honestly,even at 30% off, these are about the same as if you bought a pack of card stock, cut it and folded it.

With a pack of card stock, you get 24 sheets – or 48 cards for $6.95.  And with this, you’re getting 20 for $3.49.

But these are still a good deal for busy crafters or someone just starting out.

And that’s all I’m barking about that because Old Olive is a VERY popular color!

 

And if you’re going to be shopping, don’t forget about the limited edition photopolymer sets.  Every month, Stampin’ Up! releases one.  We know it’ll be around for little while, but it can disappear unexpectedly anytime after 60 days.  Here are some we almost missed.  The oldest is on the left and although you can’t really see it, it’s a VERY good Christmas greeting set – even for next year.

They’re all just $15.95.  Click on any picture for details and easy shopping.
