Stampin' Up!

Dear friends/customers:

I've put off writing this letter, hoping against hope that circumstances would reverse, and I ould get hundreds of new people, etc. :) Alas, here it goes.

I'm not going to be working my Stampin' Up! business any longer. Until I can't - which, at this point, should be the end of the first quarter - I can place orders. However. I will no longer be planning classes or actively seeking new customers.

I didn't come to this decision lightly. I don't feel it's fair to you to have to cancel things at the last moment because of my health or the health of another of my family. It's happened too much recently, and I can't guarantee that it will get anything but harder.

I hope you'll continue to keep in touch with me! You're an important part of my life, and Stampin' Up! has been on of the best and most stable parts of the past 18 years. Until I can't, I can continue to place orders for you. :)

Hugs & Prayers,

Lori Stilger

Paper Pumpkin, Halloween Edition

Hi, y'all! :D I thought I'd show you that PP isn't all about making cards; it comes with LOTS of things to play with, and you can do them EXACTLY as you're shown in the easy-to-follow instructions, OR you can use the goodies plus some of your own supplies to crate whateve you want. Today. I'm gonna basically unbox it, and show you the six I did exactly like the instructions - I don't have that many kids in my life, so I don't need twenty! :D

 Here, I've peeled back the tissue paper it comes wrapped in the box in, and removed the Stampin' Spot and the stamp set. What you see on the bottom is the instruction flyer, with a full-color finished product photo. SO cute!

Wrapped along with the instructions is EVERYTHING you see here. SO much fun stuff. See the printed treat bags?!?!?











And here are my six. My personal taste? I don't like to use all the twine and ribbon. It starts to look cluttered - but I do like it on these!

What do you think?






TODAY is the last day of the flash sale!!!!! Go check it out while you still can!!!

Well, dear friends, I know it's been a VERY long time. Time and events have conspired against me! :D But I hope I'm back every now and then, now - just got a new computer, and trying to blog without having my email available at the same time is a PAIN. :D

ANYWAY. This is a card I made for a color challenge a week or so ago, but because of trying to figure out the email/blogger thing, never got to enter. :D

The challenge was with Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, and Soft Suede. (I'm sorry it doesn't have the copyright on it; I don't have that software back on my computer yet!!!

I really like the way this card turned out. It's definitely not a color combination I would have chosen, but I think it really works. :)

If you have any questions or comments, please don't hesitate to contact me! I look forward to sharing a little bit more! (You may have to prompt me; time is different for me now...)

Have a great day!! Take the time to stamp something! ♥
