Here are the February cards we will be doing. I hope you like them. I am thinking Spring!! We need a little Spring these days.

Sorry I couldn't figure out how to spin this one so you can see it upright.

One More Post Today

For those of you who are looking for the "Recipe" section of the catalog, it isn't in there. SU removed it to make more room for supplies. You can still find a list of supplies on the SU website. If you click on "Our Products" then "Current Catalog" you will see a supply list link to the right. You can view it with pictures or just text.

Dormant List

Don't forget that SU does have a dormant list. What is the dormant list? It is a huge list of stamp sets that they remove from the current catalog to make room for new ones. They are not retired, just out of season. Check it out on the SU website. For instance, if you are looking to make Christmas cards during the summer, all of the sets that haven't retired, but aren't in this catalog are still available for purchase!!!

Love you much Bundle

There is still time to order your Love You Much Bundle! It is available as a bundle until January 31st. Most of you who have been to any of my shows, classes or get togethers have had the opportunity to see it first hand. It is a great addition to your collection. It comes with the Set, the three heart punch AND 12x12 Candy Lane designer series, double sided paper. I have used this set more than almost any other set I own!! I know you will too!

Resolutions

Well, so far I am doing well with my New Years Resolutions and this is part of it. Keeping you all informed of what is going on in my life and the world of Stampin Up.

Have you seen the new catalog? I love it. I have to admit that last years catalog wasn't as full of new stamp sets as I had hoped, but this one has made up for it. If you don't have one, check it out on the web www.stampinup.com or you can place an online order and recieve one FREE!! You can also get a free catalog when you have a party, either in home or book party.

My Stampin Up New Years Resolutions

I realize I am a couple weeks late on this, but better late than never.

For my first resolution, I am going to hold twice as many classes than I had last year. (I think I only had 2 last year).

My second is to be better at utilizing my time and set a time frame on how many hours a day/week I want to work on my Stampin Up business so that I don't take as much time away from my children.

Third, I want to be better at updating this Blog, so that you are all informed of upcoming promotions, classes, clubs, etc.

Lastly, I am hoping to earn a cruise through Stampin Up. In order to do this, I need to sell certain amounts of merchandise for the year. SU's year runs from July 1st - June 31'st. Right now, I am $27,000 short of earning the cruise. I will keep all of you updated on where I am at and if I get to this goal. I realize that this is a huge goal, but I am fortunate to have wonderful friends/customers like you who enjoy the products as much as I do.

Don't forget that you can order online through www.stampinwithchriscole@stampinup.net or www.stampinup.com and put me in as your demo. You can have your order shipped anywhere you want! Plus, the website has the latest promotions available to you!!!

Good luck with all of your New Years Resolutions and here is to a wonderful 2009!

Last Minute Specials & New Catalog

There are only a few days left to take advantage of some unbelievable specials and to order those retiring sets. If you want/need anything, I need to know by the end of the day on the 18th (Sunday). www.stampinup.com

The new catalog is here! There are so many awesome new products. I think you'll be impressed. I have a large list of goodies I can't wait to get my hands on.

Sell-A-Bration is coming soon! From February 1 - March 31st for every $50 in merchandise you purchase, you get to choose a FREE stamp set, Designer Series paper or Ribbon offer out of the SAB brochure. If you are on my mailing list, you should be getting one soon! If you are not on my mailing list, let me know and I'll put you on it. Also, if you have a show during SAB, for EVERY $300 in sales your party is, you'll get a FREE SAB item too! Book your parties now as space is filling fast!!

I finally did it!

I just finished going through my stamp sets and found about 20 that I could reluctantly part with. My loss is your gain as I am selling them from 20% - 40% off of what they cost me! They are all pre-cut and used obviously, but there is nothing wrong with them. Just staining of wood & rubber, but will still bring you years of stamping! Come by to check them out!

The retiring Accessory List is Here

Below is a list of the retiring accessories. These go very quickly, so don't delay. Once they are out of stock, they are gone!! If you want a better list, go to my SU website and check it out stampinwithchriscole.stampinup.net

There is also a BLOW OUT SALE on that site to check out.
