I love a nice cup of tea on a chilly Saturday morning. I always know it’s tea time when I need to recharge my battery in the winter. So I was immediately drawn to the Tea Time Framelits dies in the Sale-a-Bration catalog. They are the coordinating dies to the Tea Together stamp set in the Occasions Catalog. It’s certainly a great thing to be able to earn the framelits during Sale-a-Bration. Below is a video from Stampin’ Up! featuring these framelits and how we can use them.
Be sure to pick up your items before Sale-a-Bration is over.
You can visit my online store here and pick up the framelits with a qualifying order. Sale-a-Bration ends on March 31st.
As Sale-a-Bration continues, make sure you are taking advantage of all the free products in the catalog. Below is a video from Stampin’ Up! to show you how some of the products in the Sale-a-Bration catalog tie back to the Occasions Catalog. So you can use products from both catalogs to trigger your inspiration. There are a lot of butterfly products as well which I love. Furthermore, there is a Butterfly Suite included in the Occasions Catalog. What has been your favorite?
Butterflies are so beautiful so I am very excited about all these products that coordinate together. The Gingham patterns are also perfect for Spring. I hope you have been enjoying Sale-a-Bration and all it has to offer. Remember, Sale-a-Bration is only for a limited time so visit my online store here and trigger your inspiration.

If you love the project kits for the ease and speed, you will love the Made to Bloom project kit. It’s a fun loving kit that produces a dozen cards in a small amount of time. You get all the products you need to create three different designs. There is the added bonus of an acetate box to hold them in. You can find the project kit in the Occasions Catalog. The Made to Bloom Kit makes it possible for you to create these beautiful Spring cards for your family and friends.
The acetate box is just an added bonus to the kit. It’s great to keep them all in one place if you decide to keep the cards for your own use over the year. Our project kits make it easy to have all the products in one box for transporting them. The cards come together quickly and you can add additional embellishments if you desire.

I know you can’t wait for the February Paper Pumpkin. Every month is a surprise when you open that mailbox to receive your special subscription. This month it may feel like forever because we get a small sneak peek into what goes into the preparation of a Paper Pumpkin kit.
Today I would like to show you a video from Stampin’ Up! that showcases the February kit.
This should help you see how special each kit really is. Not only do they take great care in designing them, but they take it very seriously. Each kit gives us so much to look forward too. For new stampers, they challenge them to come out of their comfort zone. For experienced stampers, the kit makes it easy to produce volume. Sometimes, you even get to try a product that you may not have purchased on your own. I really enjoyed getting the opportunity to see what the thought process is to every kit.
So if you are a subscriber, watch your mailbox in a few weeks, if you are not a subscriber, sign up for Paper Pumpkin todayand see what the designers came up with this month. The deadline for the February kit is February 10th.
