HHD (Happy Hump Day) to you! I am going down memory lane with you today and this is a lane that EACH AND EVERY HOLIDAY our family watches….Chevy Chases Christmas Vacation…..I know – I know, it is a rather silly movie but it just makes me laugh until tears are rolling! Keep reading….
I bet you are thinking…..where in the heck are you going with this?????
Well…yesterday while I was working on my kits I went to You Tube (one of my favorite places) to watch some videos and I thought of this silly movie and burst out laughing!
I saw that Stampin’ Up! had a bunch of videos showcasing the new products from the Holiday Catalog …so I was Chevy Chase in my jammies!
I thought that this sweet Popcorn Box would be a sweet treat to showcase to you…..it has been around for a while but it is soooo fun to whip up! I did not have any POPCORN….so “gummie bears” were the treat to my Movie Theme gift that I made for my PEEP and his sweet girlfriend….a night out at the movies!
In the short time that I have been a SUD (5 years), I am just amazed at how Stampin’ Up! has grown with the technology and marketing for their products. I simply cannot show you a better overview of a product than these great videos.
I have picked for you today my top 3 videos as these products are already on their way to Randall Lane. (keep reading….)
I highly encourage you to subscribe to the Stampin’ Up! You Tube Channel. I often go there to watch a product spotlight if I am unsure of how to use something correctly (like the Dynamic Embossing Folders as they have a different “sandwich” for Mr. Big)
Grab a snack and take some “me time” to watch these….as I think that I know you all pretty darn well and you are going to agree….they are “keepers” and it is exciting to see the demonstration! (I am sure your mind will be swimming with ideas for the future)
We all LOVEÂ paper….get ready to “oooh and aahh” over the new kids on the block….do you have a favorite??? Â Please share yours….can you guess what mine is????
This “Ain’t your Grandmothers Quilt”…hang on as this IS ONE FANTASTIC Bundle…it is soooooo fun and fresh with an unlimited amount of possibilities….you WILL see this a bunch and guess what????….making a handmade Quilt IS on my “bucket list” – I always am in awe of the beauty of a quilt, guess I need to start with paper!
This beauty below surprised me….yep…I am not a fan of snow but heck, what are you going to do? After you watch this video you will see that this is soooo much more than “another snowflake stamp/bundle” – How about the sentiments on this stamp set…..F A B U L O U S!!!
Now one thing that I am NOT a fan of…..is the fact that the Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog is not “live” for customers until September 1st! (I really wish it was earlier) as once September rolls around….it is a SPRINT of upcoming holidays and who likes being soooo rushed!
That’s why the simple thing of being a being a Hobby Demonstrator is the smart choice. (over 95% of SDU’s are) Do you realize that I can give you the numbers of these bundles and you can make this your starter kit?
- The Quilt Bundle is $45.75
- The Snowflake Bundle is $46.75
- Throw in some DSP…Quilt paper stack is $9.00 plus (2) more DSP’s at $11.00 each and you are there!
I’ll help you with the math…that brings it to $123.50 and you just pay $99.00 and it SHIPS FOR FREE!
I did it for the discount as I love the products….it really is that easy!
Did I think I would stick around – NO WAY!
You can have the new goodies NOW and not have to wait. (plus if you order again, you will get an instant 20% off) but if you do not want to order again….that is totally fine!
You would have until the end of January (that’s right….end of January!!!) to decide if you wanna stick around! Please email me and I will be happy to share with you the numbers to add to the starter kit. For $99.00…how can you go wrong. It really is that easy!
The PERK FROM ME….I will give “new hobbiest” the DSP Swatch books for the new upcoming catalog. You all know that I love doing product shares and this is always a popular item…the swatch books!
I am amazed that paper, stamp and ink, brings me so much joy! Just look how something so simple can be so fun. I often say that I have an addiction – stampin!…this IS the best addiction we could have….creating and making people smile….priceless!
I could have just given James these movie tickets and said “Have a great night”…but trust me – taking the time to present THIS to him…PRICELESS….that’s how I feel about this paper, stamp and ink thing we do and love!
Enjoy the day…until tomorrow….
Ah the lecture I went to last night on painted barn quilts was right on with the video. I had a good time watching the video and dreaming of projects.
Oh Susan I love your theater gift pack. Christmas vacation is my favorite movie for the holidays. Is this fun or what?
OK….I am green – that lecture sound soooo intriguing. Seriously, I cannot sew worth a lick but making a quilt is on my bucket list.
SOOOOOO happy that you liked the quilt bundle – I was beaming when I saw it!
I just finished watching each of these videos, Susan, and I have to say that I am completely Amazed at how Beautiful the papers and the stamp sets with matching dies are! I have made several quilts when my children were young, and I didn’t think I would like the quilted set, but after seeing the stitching and fun dies, I’m hooked! I knew I’d love the snowflake set because I just love snowflakes! Last year you talked me into getting the Hang Your Stocking stamp set and matching dies, and I absolutely Adore them; so glad I took the plunge and purchased them. I would not have otherwise if it hadn’t been for you giving me a push. So thank you for a sneak peek at these products and how to put them together~ Oh, I just Love your popcorn box with the sweets and tickets for your son and gf. What a nice way to present a gift to them!
YIPPEE…I am so happy that you “went to the movies” and enjoyed the videos. SU did a great job with them and the catalog does not give these amazing papers justice. I think we all know that our DSP’s are top notch!
There is another die that there is not a video of that I am goo-goo over…keep popping back! Thanks for the comment!
Love the popcorn box using the beautiful foiled paper with kraft background. Love those papers. Haven’t used them yet. I must be saving them for a special occasion!! LOL. Have a great day, Susan.
I confess…I was like you as I did not want to use the paper because it is soooooo beautiful and then I thought – SILLY SUSAN….you preach use it….so I took the advice in my head and USED IT (then of course I smiled)
Awesome popcorn box and “movie” choices!
I adore this little box….it is so easy to put together and makes a fun statement!
Sweet box and gift idea!!!! The three videos got my heart going this morning!!! I know I have said it before , but I LOVE SU!!!! Amazing company providing some amazing products or what??!!
I will guess that your favorite new DSP might be Year of Cheer, can’t wait to get my hands on it!!!! That would probably be after I play around with Spooky Night!!! Or maybe the quilted paper stack…….all great choices and something to really look forward to.
I am thrilled that I got your heart going as I felt the same way! I simply cannot begin to showcase these products any better than SU did in these videos! Did you notice that the “cat” in the Spooky Night DSP has a friend….a friend called a PUNCH – WOOT-WOOT….soooo easy!
What a fabulous treat! The in colors are so cheery. Its a cute way to gift movie tickets
A big difference than just handing someone the tickets…..this is an easy die to work with – tear & tape and YOU ARE DONE!
I do love painted autumn DSP. I live in Kansas and the sunflower is our state flower. The sunflowers are so pretty. Then again, I’ve never run into a DSP I didn’t love!!
It’s a beauty and I love the fact that the “flip” side of the rather Autumn prints are so generic that can be used all year! Totally agree, SU nails it with DSP’s and color coordination!
Lots of fun to look forward to for us in the Holiday catty !
I love all Chevy`s movies ! VACATION is my favorite ,but the Xmas one IS a family tradition with my daughter`s family !
I have put off that adorable POPCORN box ,but you made it mighty tempting . I do not want to be wishing that I had gotten it next year !! Great gift idea ! Might have to use your idea at XMAS !!
So happy to have another silly movie fan….I am tellin’ you…the facial expression of the daughter just crack me up but Uncle Eddie…..PRICELESS!!!!
I do not think you can go wrong with this Popcorn Box. As for 3-d’s – it is super easy to put together and we all have so many different stamps that we can use for the front jazzing up!
Christmas Vacation is one of the most funniest movies ever! Who doesn’t relate to the Griswalds! Love your popcorn box….what a great gift. The DSP looks awesome…can’t wait to dive in!
The Griswalds are the BEST! I can still see my Mom’s face when we would watch this movie…she would say, “I can’t believe that you all are watching this stupid movie….just look at the person (Uncle Eddie) when he had that red dickie under that super tight white sweater……deep down I knew she giggled!!!!
That DSO is great for this project….it is a little sturdier!
How nice to give a “Just for you gift”. Love the DSP!
Happy Hump Day, to you too.
🙂
Hello sunshine!!! I want you to know…it is YOU that each Wednesday I think of HHD….I agree…a fun way of gifting!
So cute, what a fun gift!
Thanks for the comment, I agree – cute but fast and oh so easy! Just like I like it!
