Hey y’all! I hope you’re having a great week! There’s lots of crafty goodness to share this week, but we’re kicking things off with a SALE—and it’s a good one!

If you’ve had a few new stamp sets sitting on your wish list, this is the perfect time to grab them! From September 16–18, save 15% on select stamp sets during the special three-day Stampin’ Up! Flash Sale! It’s a great chance to pick up a favorite you’ve been eyeing—or try something new at a little savings. The sale only lasts three days, and qualifying stamp sets are available only while supplies last, so don’t wait too long to shop!

And while we’re talking about things you won’t want to miss, let’s take a peek at what’s coming next from Paper Pumpkin! The October Paper Pumpkin Kit—Noel Greetings is bringing a little elegance to Christmas crafting! This beautiful kit creates 10 layered Christmas cards in a sophisticated neutral palette with rich gold foil accents and coordinating envelopes. It even coordinates with the Neutral Noel Suite Collection, giving you even more creative possibilities. Subscribe September 11–October 10 to make sure Noel Greetings arrives at your door!

And here’s a little shopping tip that might make finding all those crafty goodies even easier! Did you know you can use filters when shopping on StampinUp.com to quickly narrow down what you’re looking for? And now there are even more ways to filter your search! You can shop by things like color, price, occasion, design style, ribbon type, embellishment type, and more. Your selected filters also appear right at the top, making them easy to see, change, or remove as you shop. It’s a simple update, but one that makes finding just the right crafty goodies a whole lot easier!

Now, let’s move from shopping to a little crafty inspiration! This week’s craft projects feature the beautiful Graceful Evergreen Deer Bundle! I paired this gorgeous bundle with the Stampin’ Up! Hot Foil System to create peaceful winter scenes filled with evergreen trees, softly falling snow, and gorgeous metallic deer. If you love a little shine on your Christmas cards, I think you’re going to love these!

Have a wonderful week!
