Check out these Weekly Deal projects ...

Tuesday and its gorgeous weather allowed time to get away from me yesterday as we spent extra fun at the park in the fresh air ... here are the Weekly Deals for this week ... they were worth the wait! I am totally going to stock up on my bakers twine and bling at these savings!
The Color Me Irresistible designer series paper is AWESOME too ... it comes with half the pages in the new 2015-2016 in colors and the other half is in white and can be colored to suit your needs by using an ink brayer, sponge or spritzer! 

Check out what fellow Demonstrator made with it ...

Plus just love the gift bow punch ...

Love Blossoms

I am must in love with this stamp set from the new Occasions Catalog ~ there is so many ways it can be used to bring stunning pop to your paper crafting! 

Stampin' Up has put together a great little TIP video that I highly recommend anyone purchasing this gorgeous set takes a minute to watch ... my favorite tips are how to make it work with the glimmer paper (aka place the glimmer side down so it cuts from the back first) because you totally do not want to waste your paper trying to figure this one out on your own and showing why you need to get the Big Shot die brush to help with make the weeding of these intricate dies so much easier!!!


You can bundle this gorgeous die with the Stamp set Bloomin' Love and save 15% verses buying them separately!

Blooming Hearts


I am totally in love with this upcoming product in the 2016 Occasions catty from Stampin' Up! It will be available to customers in January but as a demonstrator we get to pre-order Thursday and my upline mentor was lucky to get to the On Stage conference and got an extra early copy which we played with last night at our Product showcase team meeting and all I can say is WOW this is so going on my Christmas present to myself pre-order along with a whole whack of other things I cannot wait to show you!

In meantime here is a little sneak peek video on the Blooming Hearts Thinlits die ...
