Why'd I Buy That? 'Tis The Season For Ornamental Ornaments

 

Do you every purchase a stamp set, die, pack of pretty paper because maybe you loved it, loved what someone else made with it, and just had to have it?  Only to have it sit, neglected?

I can't tell you how often this happens to me.

And how sad it makes me when it "retires" and I never used it.  

I know, I can still use it on my personal cards and creations.  

But I usually don't because I get caught up in the next best thing.  

Welcome to "Why'd I Buy That"!

A new series where I will pull a poor, 

neglected item from my shelves and use it!

Because maybe you have the exact same thing, or something similar, sitting on your own shelves.

If you have a Special Request, for something you would like me 

to inspire you with, let me know in the comments below!

Today, I was inspired to pull the Ornamental Envelopes stamp set 

off of my shelf and pair it with Celebration Tidings.

I caught the card my friend Pam made on was immediately inspired. 

I CASE'd her card and then created another one using totally different DSP ( that I had not touched this year) and totally different colors 

(stop by tomorrow to see that one).

I had ordered this bundle mainly for the envelope elements.

But I just love these baubles 

and how quickly they help you create a beautiful card!

If you would like to copy this card, 

I have the full supply list for you below.

Many of the supplies are On Sale - and retiring.

You could pick them up for a steal 

and start creating your cards for next year ;)

Because, well, that is my plan... one I hope I stick to!

Whisper White Products A Victim Of Pandemic - Order Today!

Not an announcement I expected, nor wanted, to hear this morning but...

Stampin' Up!'s Whisper White Card Stocks, Envelopes, Note Cards, etc have become a victim of the pandemic and will no longer be available after the current supplies run out! Unfortunately, the Mill that produces these products has been permanently closed due to the pandemic. This is shocking news and I am personally devastated for the families that I am sure are suffering due to this closure. I send prayers out for them.

This is the exact message sent out by Stampin' Up!:

Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.

To ensure that you can at least have a chance of ordering some for yourself, there is an order limit of TWO of each product per order.

There are replacements in the works but they are not quite ready yet. To prepare you, please download the flyer for these replacement products and add them to your catalogs. https://bit.ly/3ndefkk

I will notify you of their availability as soon as I hear from Stampin' Up! that they are ready for ordering.

In the meantime, RUN, don't walk to my Online Store and order your Whisper White products, in your limits of 2 each, Now before they are gone!

Order Whisper White 8.5" x 11" Cardstock - Here

***it appears that the WW Note Cards & Envelopes and Thick WW Card Stock are not available for ordering.
