Just experimenting today

Ever feel like you want to make something, but don’t know where to start? Well, that happened to me this morning.  I know I need to make some specific things, but felt like experimenting today instead.  So I pulled out some new products and played for a bit.  This card is the result.  Not sure I will send this to anyone as I’m not entirely happy with it, but I wanted to show you that it’s good to just experiment once in a while to learn what works and what doesn’t work so well. Parts of this worked, parts don’t, for me anyway.  What do you thing?

The Lemon Zest bundle goes away after TOMORROW!

Tomorrow is the very LAST day to get this bundle at the 10% savings!  I am so happy to say the stamp set and punch will still be available in the new catalog beginning June 1, 2018, but only separately and without the 10% savings :(.  So get the bundle savings NOW, while you can!  Isn’t this card cute!?! It’s for an event I have in July. I’m a bit early creating these kits, but I don’t want to be stressed during the summer, right?

Lemon Zest birthday card by Keep Inking Up

I’ll have a few sentiments on hand in case the guests don’t need a birthday card.  But I do love the font on this sentiment 🙂

Get new product before the catalog goes live!

Once again, Stampin’ Up! is offering select items in a pre order before the new Annual Catalog goes live!  So very exciting! Presenting . . . the Share What You Love Suite!

Please make note of the chance to order the new In Colors at a 10% discount as well! Let me know which bundle you would like to order beginning May 1, 2018.  Or you are more than welcome to order via my online store using the shop link in the upper right corner of this blog.

The Retiring Lists are HERE! :(

Every year, products must retire to make room for new products.  This is great, but this can be so very sad.

So, here are the lists.

Occasions Catalog Retiring Items

Annual Catalog Retiring Items

Keep in mind, these products are ALL “While Supplies Last” so don’t delay!  Some items will go very quickly, especially the ink pads, ink refills, and card stocks listed. Once they are gone, they are gone, never to be produced again. There are MANY stamp sets and dies that I am shocked are retiring.  Please visit my Facebook business page where I am showing which sets I strongly encourage you to order while you can.

Learning more about making videos :)

I have a LOT to learn about making and posting videos! But I’m trying, so here is my latest attempt:

I did a voice over while showing how to use multiple colors on a single sentiment image using the new Stamparatus.  Don’t worry if you weren’t one of the lucky ones who received their Stamparatus recently after participating in the reservation process late last year.  You will be able to order on beginning June 1, 2018 when our new Annual Catalog goes live 😀

I still don’t know how to cut footage or slow/speed up anything filmed. But I am investigating how to edit videos so hope to improve my offerings in the near future, unless I will require purchasing a newer computer as that may take some time.

I do hope you find this video helpful! If you have any questions, please just let me know.
