In true Stampin’ Up! style…

For every I {Heart} Hearts stamp set purchased (now through Febuary 28, 2010)Stampin’ Up! will donate $2 to the American Red Cross’ Haiti Relief Fund. 

You may remember I used the stamp set here and here.  It really is a great and versatile set and I hope that you might consider adding it to your stamping collection and help Haiti at the same time.

Also, I am in the process of planning a "Stamp for Haiti" event.  Keep your eyes open for more information about this event.  Thank you!

Hello stampers! 

Hopefully a few of you have missed my blog postings (’tis the Season) but then again hopefully you didn’t because you were enjoying the Season!  I can’t wait to get back stamping again and play with a couple new products featured in the upcoming Occasions mini catalog starting January 5th.  (It’s awesome by the way!!!!)

In the meantime, if you would like a hard copy of either one or both the upcoming Occasions mini catalog and Sale-A-Bration brochure, and are not expecting one from another demonstrator, or have a demonstrator you currently stamp with, I would be happy to mail one out to you free of charge.  (Please note: my current club members and workshop hostesses will be receiving them shortly if you haven’t yet received them.  If January 5th rolls around and you still don’t have yours, please contact me!)  See below for more information on Sale-A-Bration and free products!

Contact me for your copy today! 

Thank you so much and I hope to be sharing some hand stamped items with you soon!
