Big hello from Phoenix! 🌵 I arrived this afternoon and have been running around town with my bestie — a much-needed break from the basement renovation chaos. Tomorrow I’ll be heading into Jennifer Dove’s Coloring Retreat, with classes running Thursday through Sunday. I’ll be heading home late Monday afternoon — but I had to pop in with some big Stampin’ Up! news for you. 🚨 Stampin’ Up! Product Changes AheadWe were notified today about several major updates:
⚠️ Quick Website NoteIf you’ve tried to visit my website recently, you may have noticed it’s temporarily down. That’s because my SSL certification needs an update. Nothing is wrong with the site itself — I’ll get it fixed as soon as I’m back home next week. Thanks for your patience! I’ll be checking in the evening during the retreat to see if Stampin’ Up! announces any more changes or updates. If they do, I’ll send out another quick email so you’re always in the know. I’ll keep you posted, but I didn’t want you to miss out on stocking up before these favorites disappear. Happy crafting, |

HUGE shout-out to Chalky Queen Bee DIY with Heather for absolutely rocking last week’s Color Play palette — Coastal Cabana, Crumb Cake, and Very Vanilla!
