Greetings!
The Last Chance list is here! It's that exciting time of year when some of the great stamp sets and accessories from the catalog are discontinued never to be seen again. While it can be a bummer to see favorites go away, it really is good news because it means there are lots of exciting new products coming in July! But let's not get ahead of ourselves — before we can celebrate the new, we need to take advantage of the last chance to get some of our favorites before they are gone!
To add to the excitement, Stampin' Up! is offering a fantastic Hostess Special with the chance to earn $20 to $40 in extra product, in addition to the already amazing hostess benefits! Plus, there are discounts of up to 50% on Last Chance accessories, but get your order in now because all these products are only available until June 30th or while supplies lasts and they usually go fast. Don't forget, if you purchased any of the 2008/2009 In Color ink pads you will want to purchase matching ink refills while supplies last. See more details in my Q&A section.
Contact me today to book a workshop or catalog party. In a hurry? Place your order online for convenient shopping!
Happy Stamping!

| | Cone Treat Hanger Template Highlight
 Take any occasion from ordinary to extraordinary by making beautiful cone hangers. Select any of our designer series paper to match the occasion. For example, use Sweet Slumber Specialty (#114037) for a unique patriotic picnic or fill Sweet Always (#112468) with candied popcorn for a teen girl's movie-night snack or Pacific Point Patterns (#112150) for a by-the-sea food faire.
Why bring dish containers to picnics and family gatherings when instead you can bring flair and food in a cone container. No dishes to haul back!
