Happy Thursday! I hope you're enjoying your week? I have been having a great time prepping for my live Christmas in July event. I really do enjoy getting ready for these events. I think it's because I know that those attending are going to have so much fun and I know that I am playing a part in helping them have that fun.
Anyway, wow, have I got so much that I want to fit into this post. I hope I can keep it short and sweet enough to keep your attention but still keep you informed!
Let me start first with the fact that we are into the last week of July and that means that time is running out on 2 of the great deals going on with Stampin' Up! The first is Bonus Day's. For every $50 you spend before shipping and tax, you earn a $5 coupon to use toward your August orders! (August 1st, Stampin' Up! is releasing the Carols of Christmas bundle to the public!) There is no maximum to the number of coupons you can earn so those coupons can really add up in no time at all and imagine the savings for next month!
The second great deal about to run out is the UH-MAY-ZING Christmas in July deal for joining Stampin' Up! Seriously, not only do you get to chose the normal $125 in ANY product of your choice, along with a free Paper Pumpkin kit and all of your business supplies for only $99 + tax and FREE shipping, you also receive the Carols for Christmas stamp set completely FREE along with a "starter package" containing paper snips, Snail adhesive, 2 D blocks, a pack of grid paper and a bone folder FREE! That totals a $72 value that you get for FREE! I have never seen such an awesome deal like this one to join. And currently, Stampin' Up! is introducing all of us demonstrators to the Holiday catalog. It started yesterday and will continue until the electronic version posts tomorrow for our eyes only, so if you join now, you get to see it too and take part in the pre-order that begins on August 1st. Yes, a perk of being a demo is that you get an opportunity to pre-order from the new catalogs before the general public and there are just so many other perks that if I'm to keep this post from being too long I can't post here..but if you have questions, please feel free to email me any time, I would love to answer your questions for you.
Just a quick non-Stampin' Up! related piece of information, Stamp n Storage is having an awesome 15% off sale for my followers. I have to tell you, I love their storage solutions. They truly are the best and really do help you make a well organized, user friendly crafting space. I personally have and use their ink pad/re-inker storage, ribbon storage, punch storage, the drawer unit and marker nook. And I love them ALL. My next investment will be the 12" x 12" paper crates and I can't wait!
Last but not least, I want to let you know to be on the lookout for some changes coming to my blog and all of my social media platforms. After 4 years of being Stampin' n Scrappin' from the Heart or aka SnS from the Heart, and doing some serious soul searching regarding my branding and how I would like to see my business branded, I am going to change my business name to Katrina's Kreative Heart. I feel this suits me much better and is a much truer reflection of me and what I want my business to look like. For one, my heart is in creating cards, not so much "scrappin' ", yes, I do enjoy occasionally putting a page together but not often enough to reflect it in my name and I don't want anyone to be disappointed coming here and seeing very little "scrappin" from me; but I do have a heart for creativity. I love to play with and try new mixed media products when designing my cards, I love trying new techniques and sharing them. So, I hope you like the name change, and hopefully it will make it easier for you to find me when searching and easier to type into the browser lol. The change will most likely take place over the next week or so as I plan to change everything at once or as close to at once as I can but it will require a lot of work and designing on my part to get it all together. In the meantime, I would like to thank each and everyone of you for sticking with me these 4 years in spite of my loooong business name and hanging with me while I make this transition. I love you all and appreciate you so very much. Until next time,
Happy Stamping,
Katrina
