Happy Thanksgiving/Fall

Today my Mom leaves for England, it's always tough when she goes back home, but as she always tells my children - she has to leave so that she can come back.

Last year my Mom was hear for Thanksgiving and so I thought I'd share some pictures of the treats I made then.

New Clearance Rack in the Online Store

New Clearance Rack in the Online Store

Overview:
Stampin' Up! is launching a new section of the online store called the Clearance Rack. The purpose of the Clearance Rack is to clear out the inventory of surplus items that have been retired. Many of these retired items will be offered at a substantially reduced price.

Remember when you shop online – always go in through my demonstrator business web site www.elizabethreeve.stampinup.net and select me as your demonstrator to get the best shipping and merchandise prices.

Details:
The clearance rack is not a promotion. It will launch September 29, 2009 but does not have a set end date.

All products in the Clearance Rack section are retired, discontinued items. No current products will be sold in the Clearance Rack.

Clearance Rack items are only available while supplies last. Items will be removed and new items will be posted depending on inventory levels.

There is no set time for availability.
Clearance Rack items will be listed and pictured only in the online store www.elizabethreeve.stampinup.net - SHOP NOW. No list or flyer will be available.

All sales of Clearance Rack items are final. No returns or exchanges will be accepted, except in the case of defective product.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: Why does the order have to be placed online?

A: Because the products are only available while supplies last, promoting and taking orders for these items in a workshop setting can result in problems for you and your customers in figuring workshop totals, hostess benefits, and actual delivery of the product. It is very possible that when a customer places an order for one of these items in a workshop, that item will be sold out before you have the opportunity to place the order.

Q: Is the Clearance Rack a promotion?

A: The Clearance Rack is not a promotion and has no end date. The intent is for the Clearance Rack to be a permanent part of the online store.

Q: How often will the Clearance Rack be updated with new items?

A: There is no set schedule. Clearance Rack items will be posted and removed based on inventory levels. Because there is no schedule, encourage your customers to check back regularly through your DBWS for new postings.

Q: If you run out of a certain item, will you restock your inventory and post it for sale again?

A: No. Clearance Rack items are retired, discontinued items and are only available while supplies last.

Q: Where can I see a list of available Clearance Rack items?

A: Because items will be posted and removed based on inventory levels, to see a list of Clearance Rack items, simply visit the online store.

Getting To Know Shelli Gardner A Little More

I enjoyed watching this video with our founder and leader Shelli Gardner and I hope you do to:

This is my last video for a little while, but I hope to have more for you soon - don't forget to visit my web site www.elizabethreeve.stampinup.net to see up to date projects and videos too.....

PTA Basket

At our school we really, really appreciate our teachers and at the beginning of the year we make up a basket of treats for ALL the teachers - this year Jill asked me to make a tag to go on the basket - I had no idea what to do and so I used Jill's words and just created this simple tag.

I love how being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator gives me the opportunity to give back in my own special way.

A Special Card For Emily

Our next door neighbor moved to Ireland last year and she recently came home for her baby shower - I had so much fun creating this cute card just for Emily and her new bundle of joy who will arrive in November....

Images © 1990-2010 Stampin' Up!

Notice the little clover leaf inside - I also used that image to decorate Emily's wedding gift wrap and it was so nice to personalize this creation for her in the same way.

Did you notice what I used to create the window for the baby deer? No? Take a look at the new Holiday Mini and you'll see a fabulous new product line....

Grace's Stamp Club Swap

I never know what to expect when Grace arrives with her swaps, but I know they are going to be from her heart and just perfect and this swap is no exception, it's lovely.....

Images © 1990-2010 Stampin' Up!
Phew..... Only six days to go and I finally managed to get all the beautiful Stamp Club swaps posted before our next swap - I can't wait to see what my wonderful ladies come up with this time can you?

Way to go ladies, thanks for all your hard work and for giving me the opportunity to share your beautiful art on my blog.

Pam's Stamp Club Swap

Pam holds down multiple jobs, has a new Granddaughter and still took time out to make this delightful swap, I'm so glad she joined our Stamp Club.....

Corner Bookmark/Bookmarks with Linda Hansen

Fun Bookmarks from Stampin' Up!

Here's another fun video I found featuring Linda:

Join Linda Hansen, Stampin' Up! demonstrator, in creating fun bookmarks for you and the kids using beautiful products from Stampin' Up! These bookmarks are perfect for helping you get through your summer reading in Stampin' Up! style! If last year was my summer of Harry Potter - yes I read all seven books last summer, then this year was the year of Twilight - I feel twenty years younger after reading it.

Shirley's Stamp Club Swap

Shirley was one of the founding members of our stamp club, more than five years ago, she always smile and looks on the bright side of life and her beautiful cards sooooo reflect her sunny personality, no matter what life throws at her.....

Wishing you all a fabulous weekend!

Tadaaaaa!!!!! My Digital Studio

I can't wait to see my 10 year old daughter's jaw drop when she see's she can make personalized Stampin' Up! cards for her friends.

Of course Stampin' Up! will have their own fabulous printing facility which will preserve the color integrity and size etc. of everything printed from My Digital studio so that it will coordinate and be the best quality etc. etc. etc.

However in the case of making a quick personalized card that I can run off on my computer, I think this is pretty impressive and remember, if I can do it, anyone can do it because I'm no tech.

Do you have My Digital Studio on your wish list yet?

My Digital Studio - Very First Project

Let's take the journey together - This is way, way, way cool. You all know that yesterday I published my pdf. class using the Sunny Day simply scrappin' kit right? Well today I received a really cool new product from Stampin' Up! - it's called My Digital Studio and you too can order it in October.

All I did was load the software onto my computer and I selected all the standard items and look, here's a fun card using the Sunny Day Simply Scrappin' Digital template - there were several to choose from.

Images © 1990-2010 Stampin' Up!

Then I decided to play, just a little - you know baby steps and so I thought about who was having a birthday next and changed a few things to personalize the card for my niece, it was soooo easy, even for technically impaired me and I even worked out how to export it so that I could show it to you here.

Images © 1990-2010 Stampin' Up!

And you thought it was all going to be about scrapbooking didn't you? Well, you can make DVD's, Cards and Scrapbooks and those are just the things I can remember.

If you would like to own your copy of My Digital Studio - send me an email reeveelizabeth@hotmail.com and I'll give you all the details - Just imagine having over 2,000 Stampin' Up! images right at your finger tips on your computer - gone are the days of lugging piles of stuff to crops - yey!!!!

Terri's Stamp Club Swap

This picture just doesn't do Terri's swap justice, it's full of fun and texture! I've soooo enjoyed watching Terri grow as an artist over the years and I can't wait to see what she comes up with next......

Rebbecca's Beautiful 3d Card Swap

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for the lack of posts last week, it was back to school and that is always a busy time for me, but hopefully I'll do better this week.

I can't believe it is only two weeks until our next stamp club meeting and I haven't posted the beautiful swaps my ladies made and so I will rectify that in the coming days and show you some of their fabulous creations. I do hope you enjoy them as much as I do.......

Forget-Me-Not-Keeper Card Storage

Do you remember earlier this year I said I'd met a fabulous lady called Linda Hansen from Stampin' Up! at the London regional seminar and I posted some picutres of us together? Well, digging through the archives I found this fun video of Linda and I thought you'd enjoy sharing in her creativity:

Forget-Me-Not Keeper Project from Stampin' Up!

The Forget-Me-Not Keeper is stylish way to keep your cards organized and provides you with an easy solution for staying on top of all of your card-giving occasions!

Important - When Shopping On Line With Me!!

Just a quick note to let you know in more details some of the things you need to know about shopping on line with me:

1. Shope On Line 24/7
2. VERY IMPORTANT - Go in through my Demonstrator Web Site elizabethreeve@stampinup.net Click HERE and bookmark it.
3. Why is it important to go in through my DBWS? Because if you go in through Stampinup.com, then you will be charged a higher shipping rate, even if you choose me as your demonstrator - I'm sorry, it's just the way their system works.
4. Always select me as your demonstrator because then you will not be charged a higher rate for shipping and merchandise.

These are important things to remember with this fabulous and flexible service - I guess the two major things to remember are 1. Go in through www.elizabethreeve.stampinup.net click HERE to bookmark it and 2. Always select me as your demonstrator.

I hope this information is helpful to you.

Have a fabulous day!

Are You Enjoying My Blog

Since I started my blog way back in January, I've received thousands of hits and I've had a new post and sometimes several most days.

My question to you is do you enjoy my blog and should I continue?

This is a hugely time consuming project, but it fits right in with my love of sharing what I love and so I don't mind one bit the time it takes to create and post new projects/news.

Please send me an email and let me know how my blog is working out for you: reeveelizabeth@hotmail.com

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

I Have A Heavy Heart Today.....

While Mom's around me celebrate today at regaining their freedom, I'm one of those Mom's who has a heavy heart and a tear in her eye. I absolutely love summer, it's just the best. Each year my children grow and change and summer is "our" time and now for another year it's time to say goodbye.......


There's a saying "If you love something, let it fly, if it comes back it is yours, if it does not, then it never was" - I know in my heart that these next few years will go by in a flash and school days will be done and I'll look back on today and know that saying goodbye to the children and sending them off to another year of Elementary school was one of the "easier" goodbye's, even though it doesn't feel like that today.

Have a lovely day everyone!
