2019 Spring Occasions Mini Catalog begins today!

Download the new 2019 Spring Mini Catalog

Goodness, I've been through 13 spring mini catalogs now, and Stampin' Up keeps amazing me with their fresh and trendy take each year. All of this season's occasions, from birthdays, babies, showers, graduation and weddings are covered, as well as Father's and Mother's Day and even Spring Break!

 

Add in fun new art styles, tempting new fonts, and a host of coordinating punches, dies and accessories, and ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!

Here's a couple of short videos highlighting some of the new spring stuff!!

• NEW!!!! Cling Stamping by Stampin’ Up!
• Needlepoint Nook Suite by Stampin’ Up!
• Stamping Techniques with Florentine Filigree Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up!
• Meant to Be Stamp Set and Be Mine Framelits by Stampin’ Up!
• All My Love Suite by Stampin’ Up!
• Made to Bloom All-Inclusive Card Kit by Stampin’ Up!
• Incredible Like You Project Kit by Stampin’ Up!
• All of the Occasions Catalog's Designer Series Paper by Stampin’ Up!

NOTE: we've overhauled the old "clear-mount" stamps with new CLING that really, REALLY clings--and wood mount is on the way out. We will still continue to expand the clear photopolymer line, too. The next big catalog (June 2019) will be the first one with all new and none of the older styles. I'm thrilled about this change!

Because Sale-A-Bration takes place during the Spring mini catalog's run, you'll be able to get all kinds of freebies when you order, too! Here's the link to the Sale-A-Bration reward brochure so you can see what you'll get to pick from with every $50 or $100 order. Download 2019 Sale A Bration Rewards

If you need a hard copy of this catalog, just let me know and I'm happy to mail you one, free of charge. Just email me at Lyssa@songofmyheartstampers.com. If you've placed an order with me in the last 12 months, one should have arrived in your mailbox this week. If it didn't, let me know--things get messed up with the holidays this time of year!

Happy browsing!

The party starts today! Sale-A-Bration 2019 begins

Download the new 2019 Sale A Bration Reward Brochure

Hooray! Hooray! It's opening day of Sale-A-Bration 2019! I have been waiting for today for months, and long-time fans of Stampin' Up have been anticipating right alongside me. If you're not yet in the know, here's the skinny!

 Sale-A-Bration is an AMAZING time of year for three REALLY BIG REASONS:

• First, every $50 spent gets you a free item from the rewards brochure. This is your choice of a stamp set, 12x12 paper, ribbon bundle, card kit and embellishments--all exclusive to this special and not available anywhere else. Some of the products coordinate with NEW toys from the 2019 Spring Occasions Catalog, too!
• Second, there's $25 in extra hostess credit when your order hits $250. Use the "Stampin' Rewards" credit on regular catalog stuff or exclusive hostess-only sets, or a combo of both. It's up to you! You can either get together to stamp and pool your orders, or just have a little party for yourself and knock off a couple of those larger items on your wishlist.
• Third, there's a BIG special on the Starter Kit! There are two ways to join Stampin' Up and both come with bonuses. Option #1 is to pick $175 worth of product you choose for just $99, or Option #2 is to spend a little more ($129) and get the $175 worth of product AND an exclusive new heavy-duty tote called the Craft N' Carry. Added to the fact that there's no shipping on either option, getting the Starter Kit is a NO BRAINER if you would like the discount, perks and freebies that come along with being part of the demonstrator fun!

I can't wait to see what you pick out for your freebies! Here's some videos on a few of the free items, to help you envision the possibilities:

• Lovely Lattice Stamp Set (item 149730)
• Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper (item 149622)
• Grapefruit Grove & Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheets (item 149712)
• Precious Parcel Card Kit (item 149750)
• Tea Time Framelits Dies (item 149697)

Oh man! After watching those, I want them all : ) Time to make up my wishlist and divide it into $50 chunks. Good thing I've got Christmas money! Sale-A-Bration lasts through March 31st, so get out that calculator and pace yourselves... this is going to be SO much fun!

Questions? I live for this stuff. LOL! Email me directly here: Lyssa@songofmyheartstampers.com

Can't wait to hear form you!

Year in Review 2018: my favorite projects from each month

Here we go again! seems like I just did last year's review and it's already time to do this year's. I enjoyed walking through my blog files and picking out my personal favorite project for each month. It was HARD!! But I chose just one, or this would be crazy long. Enjoy a quick "best of the best" tour during our 2018 Year in Review!

In JANUARY we had just come out with Brusho Crystal Color and I was experimenting with it. It was messy and fun!

In FEBRUARY my favorite project was this heart easel card with a chocolate themed stamp set. Way easier to make than you think it is!

In MARCH, another Brusho card captured the title for my favorite project overall. This was a putzy card but I just loved the results.

In APRIL I featured a masculine theme for my Class of the Month. This was my favorite card using the new Tailored Tag punch.

In MAY, I was having fun with an ice cream set also for Class of the Month Club. This card had to make my highlight reel for 2018.

JUNE was my hardest month to choose a single card. I was having a major mojo month, I guess! But if I have to pick ONE, this is it.

In June and JULY I was really getting into my new Stamparatus. I did a series of tips you can view here. Love these colors.

In AUGUST we started our Christmas Club. This Dashing Deer card turned out to be my favorite of all 16 designs we made this year.

In SEPTEMBER I jumped on the cotton boll farmhouse decor trend hard with this card from Country Life.

Country Life almost won again for OCTOBER but was edged out this wreath and berries card using the Frosted Bouquet dies.

NOVEMBER was a good month for mojo, too, and it was hard to narrow it down. But I really loved this chicken wire basket card.

DECEMBER isn't quite done yet, but this sheet music Joy to the World card has been my favorite of the month thus far.

So there we have it! Were any of these particular favorites of yours, too? Did you pin any of them?

It's so fun to have a blog to be able to look back through and watch my creative journey unfold over the years. I cannot believe that this is my job! If that sounds like something you might want to get into, it would be my honor to help you get started with Stampin' Up, share techie tips to get you set up online, and help you create a beautiful style and a unique brand name you love to post under.

Maybe you're not up for the traditional home party style of selling, but a part time job online working from home would be just the ticket. Let's chat! Lyssa@songofmyheartstampers.com and if you're ready to get the Starter Kit part going, here's the link to join. http://bit.ly/joinSUnow 

Thanks for the little trip down Memory Lane! And thanks for being a part of the Song of My Heart family in 2018. I can't wait to see where the road takes us next year!

SAB is coming! (what is that, anyway?!)

I'm so excited for January 2019! If you are an old hand at this Stampin' Up stuff, you are squealing right along with me because you know I'm not just talking about the New Year. If you're new to papercrafting, what a treat you are in for! Sale-A-Bration is an AMAZING time of year for three REALLY BIG REASONS:

• First, every $50 spent gets you a free item from the rewards brochure. This is your choice of a stamp set, 12x12 paper, ribbon bundle, card kit and embellishments--all exclusive to this special and not available anywhere else. The Sale-A-Bration rewards brochure should be in your mailbox ANY MOMENT NOW, if you're on my mailing list. If you're not, let me know and I can send you one! it will also be online on January 3rd.
• Second, there's $25 in extra hostess credit when your order hits $250. Use the "Stampin' Rewards" credit on regular catalog stuff or exclusive hostess-only sets, or a combo of both. It's up to you! You can either get together to stamp and pool your orders, or just have a little party for yourself and knock off a couple of those larger items on your wishlist.
• Third, there's a BIG special on the Starter Kit! There are two ways to join Stampin' Up and both come with bonuses. Option #1 is to pick $175 worth of product you choose for just $99, or Option #2 is to spend a little more ($129) and get the $175 worth of product AND an exclusive new heavy-duty tote called the Craft N' Carry. Added to the fact that there's no shipping on either option, getting the Starter Kit is a NO BRAINER if you would like the discount, perks and freebies that come along with being part of the demonstrator fun!

I can't wait to see what you pick out for your freebies! And I really can't wait to hear you've finally decided to jump off the fence and join my team. We are a hilarious blend of happy hobbyists, business builders and incentive trip earners, all supporting each other in our individual goals, cheering successes and just celebrating life together. If you thought being a Stampin' Up customer was fun... wait until you are really in the sisterhood!

OK! I know all this is hard to wait for, but I had to give you a heads up. On January 3rd I'll share the videos, the rewards brochure, the new Spring Occasions 2019 mini catalog, AND the January Class of the Month, too. It's going to be a HUGE party!

Penni and Lyssa's eeky epic adventure! October 8-12, 2018

Hey everybody! It's time for a week of fall fun as my BFF Penni (the best Stampin' Up assistant EVER!) and I prepare our Halloween treats, scrapbook pages, cards and decor. I hope you have a hoot seeing what we came up with this year--and if you're not a Halloween fan, see outside the box for cool ideas you can use year-round for other holidays and birthday events!

I had no sooner cut out my first Takeout Treats Box in Pumpkin Pie orange than I realized it would make the most adorable pumpkin!  What a fun little giftie to leave on someone's desk!

This led to a flood of other ideas for this box--here's just a few:

From left to right, here they are:

1. Bitty Bubbling Cauldron--cut Takeout Box in Basic Black and assemble, fold all flaps down on outside and tie with Glittered Black Organdy ribbon. Cut super-thin strips of Granny Apple Green and curl around a pencil, adhering to front and back of container. Fill with acid green jelly beans!
2. Baby Pumpkins--cut Takeout Box in Pumpkin Pie and assemble, turning upside down so opening is on the bottom. Die-cut the pennant in Soft Suede brown and fold in half for the handle. Add a Leaf Punch and a little tag tied on with Linen Thread. Fill with Toasted Marshmallow Jelly Bellys!
3. Mini Trick or Treat Basket--cut Takeout box in Pumpkin Pie and trim off flaps. Stamp candy border in Memento Black before assembly. Add a Shimmer Black ribbon handle with brads. Fill with paper shreds and a single Lindt truffle or Ferraro Rocher!
4. Fall Takeout Box--cut box and assemble, poking two holes on the two sides for a wire handle (I used six inches of green-wrapped floral wire). Bend the wire inside the box so the wire can't be pulled out. Decorate with Leaf Punch and layered tag.
5. Bride of Frankenstein Petite Purse--cut Takeout Box in Basic Black and cut the sides and side flaps down by half. When assembled, the box will be half as wide as a normal one. Add a ribbon handle and a "flap" with a half-circle doily cut out to resemble a spiderweb. Use the dark Basic Back Stampin' Blends alcohol marker to turn a Petal Pink Rhinestone into a black one, for the purse clasp. Add a small tag and a Delightfully Detailed lace paper border strip around the bottom. Fill with black jellybeans.

Isn't that TOO fun? This little Takeout Thinlets box is so versatile! You can save 10% by bundling it with the coordinating stamp set, too, which has Valentine and Christmas sayings as well as birthday and thank you. AND you can get three boxes from a sheet of 12x12 (plus other tags and punches from the scraps.

You'll have to come back later this week to see what ELSE came of this creative session... here's a hint: it involves googlie eyes!

Penni LOVES the 24 Cheat Sheets Collections and her first Halloween card for our series is a layout from Collection #1 (which is free with my e-newsletter signup, if you'd like it!) Not only is it a great layout for using up scraps of patterned paper, it's SO fast to create. No more excuses for not getting cards out, when they're this easy and fun to make! The sweetly watercolored Toil & Trouble papers are perfect for not-so-spooky celebrations, too.

See you tomorrow for some Victorian-inspired pieces from my desk and a fun new fold from Penni. We're on a roll!

It's my party and YOU are getting a present! In honor of Song of My Heart's 10th blogging year, for our third official anniversary post I've created a brand new class and am giving it away FREE for everyone celebrating together this month.

NO purchase necessary. All you have to do is leave a comment and let me know you downloaded it! Because this prize is digital, I can offer it world-wide, too, so hooray for our global crafter friends!

Notes about the class:

• this is a beginner to intermediate level class--dress it up or keep it simple, as you prefer.
• No Big Shot required--the paper is already precut and ready to use.
• the file is 8 pages long and while it is in color, you can also print it in black and white.

*****Please note: this giveaway has ended. The class is available for $5 here. Thanks so much to everyone who participated in our anniversary celebrations!*****

I can't wait to show you all the different ideas I had with this fabulous lace. It's soooo pretty, it's really hard to go wrong with it. I made about 12 cards and was excited about that, and then set myself a challenge to use up my entire pack of Note Cards & Envelopes and make a complete set of 20. And then I couldn't wait to share it with YOU, because that's just how it works around here!

ENJOY the free class, and don't forget the "fee" is to leave me a comment. I'm especially talking to YOU friends who have never introduced yourselves or spoken up before! You know who you are! : )

 

Happy 10th Anniversary to Song of My Heart!

Wanna read something funny? I just looked back at my very first blog post, written ten years ago September 1st. It's a cute snapshot of who I was at the time and the style that would come to characterize my writing. I'd been a demonstrator for 3 years and was just beginning to get an inkling of how much the Lord was going to use Stampin' Up to bless our family.

I find it hilarious that I didn't think I'd have much to say... the text-heavy posts that followed that first one are a testament to just how much I wanted/needed to connect with other crafters out there!

Fast forward 10 years--I'm still living a life I love, although the pathway has zigged and zagged here and there--still crazy about Stampin' Up--and still hungry to connect with crafters. I think about you guys all the time and can't wait to share what I'm working on!

This stat kinda speaks for itself: 3,395 posts.....that translates to 1.075 posts per day for 365 days x 10 years. Now you know where I spend all my free time : )

Well, I really think this calls for a celebration, don't you? And because I love themes, and 10 is such a fun number, let's do 10 posts in September with 10 giveaways and deals!!! Tell all your friends we are PARTYING in September at Song of My Heart. Look for posts with the 10th anniversary logo and leave a comment according to the directions in the post as to how to enter.

Let's start with a bang! Our first deal is a doozie:

• Winner gets a STAMPARATUS positioning system for just $10.00!!!
• Regular price is $49.00 plus shipping
• Cannot be sent outside the U.S., sorry!
• $10 must be paid by 9/30 via http://paypal.me/songofmyheart 
• Please only post if you are 18 years of age or older and willing to pay the $10 deal.
• Enter by leaving a comment and telling us what YOU were doing 10 years ago this fall.
• Winner will be posted in the next anniversary post! So keep coming back to see if you win.

Thanks so much for helping me celebrate this milestone! And thank you even more for listening to what I have to say. I count you all as flowers in my garden.

BONUS DAYS during August 2018!

Oooh, I love this special! In August you can earn a $5 coupon for every $50 spent. The coupons can be redeemed any time in September! Most of us have to space out our wish lists a little and plan our orders, so this makes it even more fun to know we're getting bonus bucks.

Here's the details!

• Earn $5 for every $50 purchased before shipping and tax are calculated. http://bit.ly/shopwithLyssa
• Bonus Days coupon codes are delivered via email, so be sure it's accurate!
• If you earn multiple codes from an order, you'll receive one email with multiple codes. If you earn multiple codes from multiple orders, you'll receive separate emails for each code earned.
• Don't lose those codes! They are unique to you and can't be spent by anyone else.
• There is no limit to the number of coupon codes you can earn in August!!!
• There is no limit to the number of coupon codes you can use in September!!!!
• Coupon codes may be redeemed for any product (excluding Starter Kits and Paper Pumpkin subscriptions)
• BEST OF ALL: you CAN use a hostess or club code AND a coupon code on the same order! So if you're ordering for club, Class of the Month, or a friend's party, make sure you enter both before you checkout.

Pretty sweet special, eh? If you have questions, be sure to let me know! Lyssa@songofmyheartstampers.com

Happy wish-list-making!

So tell me about that Starter Kit...

There's not much quite like the word "free" to make people's ears perk up. And when it's followed by "color family of ink pads," it gets our attention pretty fast!

This month (July 2018) Stampin' Up is offering an irresistible bonus to the already great deal on the Starter Kit. Several crafters have already taken advantage of it and chosen their ink pad collection. Will you be the next to join our happy team? I hope so! 

Here's a complete rundown on the basics you'll want to look over before you go for it.

Free ink pads, hooray! Now, WHAT ELSE do you get with the $99 Starter Kit?

• For just $99 you choose $125 of whatever YOU want! Products can be from any current catalog, including bundles and Clearance Rack stuff. I'll help you if you want suggestions on what is best to get first and what you can wait to get until later!
• Free & FAST shipping! The BIG box of goodies will come right to your door in about a week. You pay ONLY the $99 plus tax in your state.
• Start working on your wish list at a discount: save 20-25% or more on your favorite papers, tools, and stamp sets! Our company spoils us rotten with all kinds of special promotions, drawings, incentives and "just because" gifts. I spoil MY team rotten, too, giving away more than $150 in product every month on Facebook and at our monthly gatherings.
• Receive FREE catalogs straight from the company, and preview and purchase new products in advance. No one gets them faster! Twice a year there are exclusive conventions and conferences you are also qualified to attend. You'll be on the cutting edge of new techniques and innovative new tools.
• Stay as long as you want--there's no penalty to drop! If you reach $300 in sales by the end of the first full Stampin’ Up! quarter, you renew your demonstrator discounts and benefits for another quarter. If you don’t reach $300 in sales, you can “drop” with no penalty.
• KNOW who you are signing up with! While there’s no obligation to ever host workshops or parties, sell products to others or purchase anything more, IF you decide to make a business out of it somewhere down the road, I'll be your biggest fan.

 

You'll be in a group where people are informed, rewarded and encouraged on a consistent basis. I've been in the Top 100 Demonstrators of the Year for many years, and I have a 100% transparency policy--I share EVERYTHING that got me to where I am in the company today. I don't hold ANYTHING back. The sky will truly be the limit if you decide to go for it and see what happens.

 

And if you just want the discount, fellowship and fun? That's ok too! ALL types of demonstrators are welcome on my team. Whatever success looks like to you, that's what we'll aim for. I am a NO pressure upline.

 

I hope you're feeling more informed and excited than ever! if you're ready, click here to join. http://bit.ly/joinSUnow  It takes about ten minutes flat and can be put on any credit or debit card.

 

Then watch for an excited happy-squeal email from me!! We're going to have SO much fun.

The Great Cycle Challenge card

I'm so proud of Mike for taking on the Great Cycle Challenge this summer! His goal is to bike 500 miles in June in support of childhood cancer research. He's been working hard every day to build up his numbers and shave time off his speed.

Today is Kick Cancer's Butt Day, where ALL donations will be DOUBLED by supporters of the charity up to $500K - so if you sponsor Mike today and your donation will be MATCHED! Your $5 becomes $10... $25 becomes $50... etc!!

I had to smile when I saw the title because it reminded me of the sentiment in the new Enjoy Life stamp set, which I JUST made a card with! I was really tickled that Enjoy Life has such a great cycling image. I'll be using that one for many years to come! 

If you'd like to join us in raising funds for a good cause, click the link below to make a donation: http://greatcyclechallenge.com/Riders/MichaelZwolanek  

Mike loves cycling so much he and his friend Pat John rented bikes in France and pedaled through the hills and along the Mediterranean Sea while we were there in 2016 on the Stampin' Up cruise. Now that's die-hard!

Thanks for considering sponsoring my handsome history professor!
