Carols of Christmas, Card Front Builder, Ruffled, Brick Wall - Christmas Card

It's a very cloudy day out today!  Our high for the day is expected to be 32 with snow showers this evening.

We finished remodeling the BIG room off of the balcony on our house and had the carpet installed last week.  Now, the BIG chore of moving things back into the room and cleaning everything from all the drywall dust.

And, our well poohed out on us.  Not the best time of year to have a new well drilled; but, that got done last week.  The workers are back today installing a new pump, motor and hooking everything up.  I tell ya', if it weren't for bad luck, we'd have no luck at all.  I'll just be glad when it is all over.  It will be at least a week for us to be able to drink the water from the new well.  Always something!!!

My share for today is a Christmas Card from my Dear Friend and Fellow Stampin' Up Demonstrator, Dawn.  Let's take a look:

What an awesome Card!!!  Thank you Dawn!!!

I LOVE that Dawn put Gold Foil Paper behind the Card Front Builder die cuts and embossed the Sentiment in Gold Emboss Powder.  LOVE!  I need to dry emboss more!  It creates such a WOW factor!

I also LOVE how Dawn used the Ruffled Embossing Folder to create Snow Drifts on top of the Brick Embossed house and chimney and on top of the chimney!  I haven't used my Ruffled Embossing Folder yet and now I have BIG plans to use it.  Just Brilliant!

I'm such a Country Bumpkin!  That little Deer in the Trees is so Sweet!  And, I never thought to die cut the Trees from Whisper White Cardstock.

Over the years, I have learned a lot from Dawn and I so appreciate our Friendship.  Thank you again Dawn and Merry Christmas to you and yours!!!



Stampin' Up! restocked the Clearance Rack with lots of goodies!!! I see that some of the items have flown off the shelves already!


Stamparatus

The Stamparatus is a new product from Stampin' Up!  I was one of the unfortunate ones to miss the first reservation window.  I love this new product and my FAVE feature of the Stamparatus is the double doors!

Change in Stamparatus Reservation Windows

The results are in! The first Stamparatus reservation window reached its maximum number of reservations in just 15 minutes, which provided us with some very important information: You LOVE this new stamping tool! We couldn’t be more thrilled; in fact, your response was so amazing that we’ve decided to make some important adjustments to the reservation process.
As was previously announced, the second reservation window will remain open from December 5–30; however, during this reservation period we will take as many orders as we receive (yay!) and not close the window until December 30. So whether the total number of reservations is 100 or 100,000, the window will stay open!
Please note the following changes:

• Beginning March 19, we will ship Stamparatuses in the order the reservations were received (first in, first out) and continue through the next few months and beyond as product arrives in our warehouse. Because shipment dates are based on manufacturing lead times, not all of the reservations made during the December 5–30 window will ship on March 19 (as was previously announced).
• In order to accommodate demand, limits have changed as follows: one reservation per customer and one per demonstrator.
• Because we are not limiting the maximum number of reservations for the second window, we will not offer a third window. This is the last chance for you and your customers to reserve a Stamparatus before it becomes available in the 2018-2019 annual catalog.

Please note what has not changed:

• If you reserved more than one stamping tool during the first reservation period, that number will not change; you will still receive the same number you reserved.
• If you reserved one or more stamping tool(s) during the first reservation period, you may still order during the second window.
• The reservation window will open at 2:00 PM (MT) on December 5. 

We can’t wait for you to get your hands on your very own Stamparatus and look forward to seeing the projects you’ll make with this incredible stamping tool. Look for additional details on the Stamparatus product page as the second reservation window approaches.
