 Hello, Sweet Stampin' Friends!

I am in love with the Fall - the colors, the leaves, the chill... Everything about it gets me happy and filled with excitement! 

I love designing Autumn cards!! Please let me know by Oct 17 that you are coming so I can have your materials ready 😆

If you cannot make it to Stampin' Saturday Oct 18, at 11:00, you will want to Stamp By Mail! Choose 1 or both cards, and Monday, Oct 20, I will put the kit(s) in the mail nad send you the tracking number. You will get all of the materials stamped, embossed, cut and even colored if you would like me to color the images for you! Dimensionals  (but no other adhesives), embellishments, ribbon and very detailed directions are all included for only $10 for one and $15 for both. Payment by cash, Zelle or PPal me at teachph@aol.com 

Card #1 is a  fun card with a surprise Pop-Up feature inside!! THIS is a technique you will use over and over again! 

                



Card #2 is an absolute beauty!!! A Floating Panel card, can you imagine gifting this to someone?*melt*

  


If these 2 cards aren't enough, Stampin' Up has introduced the 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar, a brand-new calendar full of products you can craft with all year long! Every day of this calendar contains never-before-seen dies, paper, embellishments, and even more items you won’t find in any of our catalogs or in our online store, so make sure to buy one before they’re all gone. And did I mention that these make the perfect gifts for that friend or family member in your life who loves to craft? After all, there’s nothing better than giving the gift of crafting! There is only have a limited number of calendars in store, so don’t wait—click right here to start shopping now!


2 new kits have come out, and one is a card organizer box! What a gift! A set of 10 cards and a lovely box to keep them organized! You can find them here

                                                                    

And don't forget about Paper Pumpkin for your crafting fun! There is a new set of dies to coordinate with the Oct, Nov and Dec Paper Pumpkin kits.  Click here for all your Paper Pumpkin needs. Remember, only subscribers can purchase past kits, refills, and the coordinating dies. You can sign up for a subscription (or purchase 1 month!) by clicking Here There is a typo in the instructions for the October box. The directions may say it comes with a Gray Granite ink spot, but it comes with a Lost Lagoon ink spot. The Lost Lagoon spot is the correct color.

Stampin' Sat DATE CHANGE!! and *more* news!

 Hello, Sweet Stampin' Friends!!

 (Drumroll, please) The Great Cycle Challenge has begun! YES! My month-long cycling challenge fundraiser for the Children's Cancer Research Fund began yesterday, Sept 1! I spent almost 4 hours of my Labor Day pedaling to make a little dent in my 200 miles goal. I did 48.5 miles yesterday and 9 miles this evening, so I am a little better than 20% done towards my mileage goal. The BEST news, however, is I am creeping towards my $2500. fundraising goal! Want to help put a dent in the $$ goal? 20% of the cost of all KITS you buy from MY SITE, all year long, goes towards my fundraiser! Of course, you can always make a tax-deductible donation. To see my progress, find out more about the GCC and the CCRF, and to support my fundraiser, simply CLICK HERE Why am I doing this? Because every week, here in the US, every 2 minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer. About 38 kids a week will lose their lives to cancer. Worldwide, about 1750 kids per day succumb to their cancers. 90% of survivors will have a life-threatening event by the time they are middle-aged as a result of having chemo. These kids need better therapies. It is time to Kick Cancer's Butt. Please join me in this battle!



HAPPY NEWS! The Fall Holiday Mini Catalog goes LIVE TODAY!! CHECK IT OUT HERE !! Holiday and seasonal papers, stamps and dies... and more!! Don't forget to check out the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES for even more fun!

Sept Stampin' Sat DATE CHANGE! Stampin' Sat will be on SEPT 13. Join the fun at 11:00 at my house! As always, only $5.00 or an order! 

We will make 2 fantastic cards!

The FIRST card is a really cool PINWHEEL TOWER CARD! I have no idea how to photograph this, but I hope you get the idea. It folds flat and fits in a regular envelope!


Card #2 will use the gorgeous, new AUTUMN TREES bundle. I am waiting for some special paper but I do know the design we are doing! 

Please let me know by Sept 12 that you are coming so I will have your materials (and enough lunch) ready!

Can't make it but want to know how to make the Pinwheel Tower card (it is so easy, I promise!) so you can make them yourself? Love the Autumn Trees Bundle? STAMP BY MAIL! Paypal (teachph@aol.com, sent Friends and Family with no comments) or Zelle me $10 for one, or $15 for both cards and I will send you all of the papers cut and scored, images/sentiments stamped, colored and cut out, embellishments you may need, detailed instructions - EVERYTHING you will need except adhesives! Please email or text me if you are stamping by mail. Email violn1001@aol.com or text 864-921-9750. Card kits will be mailed Sept 15.

Looking ahead, Stampin' Sat will be back to the 3rd Saturdays of October (18) and November (15) so mark your calendars! There will be *no* card class in December.

SALE!! The Stampin' Write markers are being discontinued and are now in the LAST CHANCE LIST

SU has introduced a Black Journaling .04 Pen (item #166647) which may take the place of the Basic Black marker if you use that one for writing in your cards.

Remember, the red rubber stamps are also being phased out. Check out my previous blog post for all the info about that but keep an eye out for the new packaging! Especially excited that the DIES WILL HAVE PRINTED ARTWORK ON THE PACKAGING FOR QUICK AND EASY IDENTIFICATION!! AND the new packaging will allow all images to be printed at 100% size! 

Starting in November, we can purchase stamp and die organizers, in packs of ten, to easily transition our current cling stamps to the updated packaging, making it super easy to store our beloved products with the new ones. Item # will be 167772, and cost $16.00 per pack of 10. The current storage boxes (item #119105) which we can purchase will continue to be available for the foreseeable future. There are no current plans to discontinue those at this time.

THANK YOU to those who have subscribed to my YouTube Channel! I wonder if I can get to 900 subscribers by Thanksgiving? 

HERE IS MY LATEST VIDEO If you are not a Paper Pumpkin Subscriber, the  alternate ideas are still definitely worth watching! For my full video list, including non-Paper Pumpkin videos, just click here and feel free to share!

Thanks so much and I hope to see you on the 13!

Until next time, keep making the world a beautiful place!
