Baby gift

Yesterday I had a baby shower for a friend ...so as usual, I decorated a paint can as part of my gift to the rest of the present. I put in a gift card for the baby and gift card for the mom (Starbucks!), plus I made some baby cards for her. The stamps I used are from Amuse..when I saw the "Got Milk" I immediately thought of her because she works as a lactation consultant for WIC program!

Sale-a-bration!

I am reposting this post from Inking Idaho....great idea!

It starts today! Stampin' Up!'s biggest promotion of the year!! Sale-a-bration is our yearly customer and hostess appreciation celebration.

With every $50 they spend in catalog merchandise, you get a FREE Sale-a-bration product from the Sale-a-bration catalog. Who doesn't ♥ FREE stuff??

We all use adhesive to assemble our cards and scrapbooks, right?
How would you like to get SNAIL refills for $1.80 each?
Here is how this works...
You order 34 SNAIL adhesive refills (order number 104331 $4.50 each) totalling $153.00.

That qualifies you for a Catalog Party making you eligible for Hostess Benefits. You'll earn $15 in Hostess Dollars to spend on anything in the Stampin' Up! catalog; so you choose 3 more SNAIL adhesives FREE! With a $153 party you also get a FREE 1st level exclusive Hostess Only stamp set from page 10 or 11 of the big catalog or page 6 of the Occasions Mini catalog.

Now, during Sale-A-Bration, a $153 party earns you 3 FREE Sale-a-bration stamp sets or products from the Sale-a-bration flyer!

You average the retail value of all the free merchandise you recieve (the Hostess Dollars, FREE Hostess set and the 3 FREE Sale-a-bration sets) and you are paying about $1.80 each for your SNAIL adhesives.

Valentines Day

Today I was at JoAnn's and they had these larger sized mailboxes (this was 4.99)..you can get the smaller ones at Target, in the dollar spot. So for Valentines Day, I decorated it..all ready to go to fill with some goodies!

Valentines Day

If you have ever "elfed" or "booed" your neighbors than how about getting them with the "love bug" for Valentine's Day? I printed up these tags and then decorated some paint cans that I bought at Home Depot. I then filled them with some candy and placed them on the front door--sort of like Ding Dong Ditch..You could also do it at the workplace or surprise a teacher.
