Tag Archives: 2017-2018 Stampin’ Up! Catalog

5Jun2017

I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it!

Posted in 2017-2018 Annual Catalog, Personal Share by stamptilyoudrop

20170322_ac17-cover_en-usNothing is more exciting than placing that first order from the new catalog.  After looking at it every night for a month before going to bed (as you know that assures visions of stamps and ink dancing around in your head).  Not to mention all the drooling over the new stamps, toys and my personal weakness; ribbon.  Then on June 1st we get the green light to order anything from the catalog. Of course the first order is never easy. I have written my list of must haves and changed it so many time I have lost count.  And I as was placing that first order I had to keep shifting things around to get the most bang for my buck.

Then comes the hard part, waiting for my box of happiness to arrive.  I did pay extra for 2 day shipping since I just couldn’t wait over a week for it.  I got the message yesterday morning from UPS alerting me that it will arrive tomorrow and I had to do a little happy dance in the privacy of my office.

Doin’ a happy dance, it’s on the way!!

So all day Sunday I started to design cards in my head and I kept thinking to myself; I cannot wait to get my hands on that embossing paste!  And the stamp sets. And all the ribbon that will  be taking over my stamp room. And who could forget about the glossy paper. Be still my heart!  This was  one of my favorite products I am so happy it is back.  There are so many techniques that I haven’t done in a while and I can’t wait to share them with you.  I had to write down all my ideas in a notebook because my brain was on overload and I didn’t want to forget them when I’m released to the wild of my stamp room.

I went to work today and all I could think about was getting home and spending the night with my new goodies.  But what  to play with first…that is the million dollar question! I am thinking I will put my planner together first then play with that embossing paste!

So home I go to wait for the familiar rumble of the UPS truck coming down the street. I saw this meme the other day and that is how I feel when I am waiting for my new stuff to arrive.  I can remember when my children were little how they would listen for the music and then get so excited waiting for it to stop in front of the house.  That is now me and my ice cream truck is brown (too bad he doesn’t play some music to alert me he is coming).  Then it happens….the dog jumps on the love seat in the window and starts barking to let me know that the big brown truck has stopped in front of the house. I guess I really don’t need music when my 100 lb German Shepherd is on duty.  I maintain my composure and wait for him to ring the bell and get back in the truck before I open the door and snatch the box off the front porch.  Then I walk rather quickly to my stamp room to open THE BOX.

Now comes the fun part unpacking all my goodies! And away we go…….

Now what did I get? I have sets and suites and accessories oh my! But one of the great things about being a demonstrator is the discount!  After my discount, Stampin’ Rewards earned, one 50% off item and the extra $35 in rewards I received almost $600 worth of product and paid only $370, that’s a savings of $230 and I didn’t have to cut any coupons!  Wowza!
