Happy Canada Day!
There is lots to celebrate on July 1st. I'll make this a short and sweet July newsletter because I need to go make pancakes for this morning and finishing packing mini Paper Pumpkin boxes with sugar cookies for our neighbourhood kids.
Firstly, Happy Canada Day!
Our neighbourhood will be celebrating together with proper social distancing. We sent out flyers to our street and asked kids to decorate their bikes or scooters for a parade later today. We're looking forward to watching the parade and seeing their creative ways they decorated their bikes. In the meantime I baked sugar cookies to create a cookie decorating kit (each kit comes with cookies and white and red icing), for the kids on our street too. Here's a peek of my boxes I made with Real Red card stock and a maple leaf from the Nature's Roots dies. The boxes are white and rectangular, so they were the perfect size to make the boxes look like the Canadian Flag. We're excited to hang out on our street with our neighbours to celebrate Canada Day. I hope you will be celebrating Canada Day in a fun and special way too.
Secondly, Stampin'UP! News.
Good news, Stampin'UP! has released the date when the new Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine will be available to everyone. You'll be able to order your big Stamping' Cut & Emboss machine on September 1st, 2020. Yay!! I'm so excited, I hope you are too? As soon as I hear when the mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine will be available I will let you know as well.
Bonus Day begins today, July 1st. Through the month of July any orders of $60 earns you a $6 Bonus Coupon which you can redeem in August. And in August the new Aug - Dec Mini Catalogue will be available so it's great you'll be able to use your coupons on Christmas stamp sets.
My favourite Product Medley, I have to share with you because I think these all in one product medleys don't often get the spotlight they deserve. It is the Boho Indigo in the Annual Catalogue on page 9. You get coordinating stamps, dies, Designer Series Paper, die cuts, ribbons and embellishments - what more do you need? If you've never noticed these, go check it out.
Here is a card I had a chance to make this week with Boho Indigo. I used Whisper White, Night of Navy and Just Jade, a 2020-2022 In Colour. There is so much packed into this product medley. If you like shades of blue, Whisper White and Vanilla and accents of Gold, you'll love using this all coordinating medley.
