The 2019/20 Annual Catalog is LIVE!
June is always a fun time a year, for many reasons: summer vacation begins for school-aged kids, the flowers are finally blooming, s'mores are in season AND the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog comes out. The 2019/20 Annual Catalog is now live and ready for
you. No more teases from demonstrators who were able to pre-order products. Would you like a catalog? Reply back or send me a message and I'll get one to you. Or, you can view it directly on your computer or tablet. Be sure to set some time aside to enjoy and take it all in. There is so much to see! Lots of creativity, project ideas, new products, color combinations, tips and inspiration. I recommend taking out a post-it note pack
and jotting down notes, what you like & love, what you must-have and what you want to make and who it's for. That way, when you go through your catalog again later, you will remember what your first reactions were and what you wanted to make.
Paper Shares are a fantastic way of getting a sampling of all of the beautiful & fun Designer Series Papers in the new catalogs. If you were to purchase all 12 patterned packs, you would pay just over $170!!!! By participating in my Paper
Share, you will receive 156 sheets of every patterned paper, sized 6 x 12", and pay only $45. I guarantee you will fall in love with at least a few of the packs(if not all of them). Each is so different from each other.
Everyone who participated in the Paper Share from the Spring Occasions Catalog was very happy with all their papers, especially because they were cut sized 6 x 12". This size is a more usable size than other paper shares, which are cut into 6 x 6" pieces. I also label each pack with the name of the pack and coordinating colors to make it easy when you go to
make a project.
Let me know you would like to participate in the Paper Share by June 13. You can pay by check or PayPal. If you would like me to ship your Paper Share to you, it will be an additional $7. 35 for Priority Mail.

A Few Things in the Catalog are Not Ready Yet
Stampin' Up! only wants to send you quality products. Sometimes, there are problems with manufacturers that are out of Stampin' Up!'s control. There are a couple of products that are in the new catalog but not available to order yet. Below is what
Stampin' Up! told their demonstrators. I will keep you posted when I know these products are ready.
The following products will not be available when the catalog goes live to your customers:
- SAIL AWAY TRINKETS (item 149482)
- PETAL PINK 5/8" (1.6 CM) STRIPED ORGANDY RIBBON (item 149441)
We anticipate that the following products are at risk for going on backorder soon after the catalog goes live to your customers:
- MAGNOLIA LANE MEMORIES & MORE CARD PACK (item 149554)
Botanical Tags Dies, Purple Posy Classic Stampin’ Pad, and Purple Posy Classic Stampin' Ink Refill Not Available For Order
Due to quality issues, the following products are temporarily unavailable for order, either as single items or when combined with other products.
- BOTANICAL TAGS DIES (item 146824)
- PURPLE POSY CLASSIC STAMPIN’ PAD (item 150084)
- PURPLE POSY CLASSIC STAMPIN’ INK REFILL (item 150091)
Though not all Purple Posy Classic Stampin’ Pads/Ink Refills are affected, a significant number of these products do not reach our quality standards.
Please be assured that we are working with the supplier to solve this issue as soon as possible. We will post another current update letting you know when the problem has been resolved. This process could take two months or longer.
We recognize that this is a disappointment, especially because Purple Posy is a new In Color; however, we are very serious about quality at Stampin’ Up! and want to ensure that our demonstrators and customers have the best products possible.
In the meantime, we deeply appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through this issue.
It's the perfect time to join Club because of the new Annual Catalog. So many new products. I still have openings for Stamp Club - both local & to-go. Club lasts 6 months, June - December. Each member purchases $30/product each month and in
return, receives a free monthly Club Class, hostess benefits for your assigned month, catalogs and treats along the way. Please let me know if you would like to join Club by June 17. The first Club get together is Monday 24 at 10 am or Thursday, June 27 at 7 pm. You choose to come Monday mornings or Thursday evenings (or rotate month to month).

A Cute & Quick Stop Motion Preview of New Products
Curious about what I am loving from the new catalog? Here are some of my top picks. Be sure to let me know what you love to so I can make samples, create classes & videos around those products too. I linked the products for you to take a peek at
them.
In no particular order:
1. I love how SU formatted this catalog. All of the colors are on page 3 for reference, all of the Bundles are listed together at the beginning of the catalog with samples (and different samples on the pages they are individually listed), the product suites are featured over 3 pages, the photographs of the papers and products are all larger, the kits are all together at the back of the catalog
and the color charts for ink, paper & refills are much easier to read. No more ordering the wrong thing by mistake.
3. A great versatile set is Rustic Retreat, p. 49. It's masculine, Christmas, birthday, outdoorsy all in one (with a great inspiration quote from A.A. Milne).
4. Do you like to make interactive cards? Cuckoo for You is the one you need. p. 29.
5. Sometimes we need a card for a reason that is hard to put into words. Check out Genuine Gems. I think this set may fit those hard to say words. p. 88.
7. In my area, anything nautical is a must have. The Come Sail Away Suite does not disappoint and I've already used it a bunch. p. 146.
8. Do you like to make 3D items? The Truck Ride die (shown in the video above) is easy to assemble and is super fun. pp. 55 & 197. I bet you could make a different truck for each holiday & occasion. Stamp set & die sold as a
bundle.
9. I think the top pick among world-wide demonstrators is the Magnolia Lane Suite. It's full of coordinating products with so many possibilities. p. 37.
Please let me know how I can help you with your creativity!
