<p>Here are the <strong>colors retiring</strong> from the <strong><em>Stampin' Up!</em></strong> color family:</p>

<p>Some <strong>retiring</strong> color products will sell out quickly -- especially refills -- so if you want to extend the life of your stamp pads in these colors, make sure you get a couple of refills for each one.</p>
<p>I mean, really, how will you live without Baja Breeze  card stock??? LOL!</p>
<p>To order now, <a href="http://www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/default.aspx&amp;dbwsdemoid=98324" target="_blank" title="Shop now">go to my online store.</a> If you prefer, email your order to kathleen@stampjourney.com or phone or text to 678-467-1330...but do it quick -- free shipping ends Monday.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff7f00; font-size: 10pt;"><strong>So what's replacing the retiring colors?</strong></span> </p>
<p><em>One brand-new color</em> will debut in the new catalog that goes live May 31st, 2013. </p>
<p>It's called <strong>Smoky Slate</strong>, and it's a lovely light grey...just right for the oh-so-trendy grey we're seeing everywhere.</p>
<p>Nine of our most popular <strong>InColors</strong> (current &amp; past) fill in the other spots and there's been a little rearrangement of the families.</p>
<p>Here are the new colors coming in:</p>
<p>
<a class="asset-img-link" href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017c3866c32c970b-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, '_blank', 'width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0' ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="NewColors_ksi" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e54ee9bee78833017c3866c32c970b" src="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017c3866c32c970b-320wi" title="NewColors_ksi" /></a></p>
<p>Recognize some favorites?</p>
<p>I am wild about Wisteria Wonder, Pool Party and Crushed Curry. And I can't wait to put Island Indigo with Bermuda Bay and Soft Sky in a monochromatic treatment. Woohoo!</p>
<p>Tomorrow we'll look at the new family arrangements. For now, here's a sneak peek at three cards, each one featuring one family. Can you pick out which is <strong>Brights, Regals</strong> and <strong>Subtles</strong>?</p>

<p>"We love color and we know that you do too. Color is fundamental to 
who we are and what we offer. It’s important for us to stay up-to-date 
with color trends so we are thrilled to share our updated line of 
colors, and hope you will be as excited as we are by the new 
possibilities!</p>
<p>"Why now? In 2010 we did a big color renovation and shared our plans 
for smaller color refreshes every three to five years to keep our colors
 on trend. Well it has been three years and we are excited to announce 
that <strong>the upcoming 2013-2014 annual catalog will include 10 new colors</strong> 
(most of which are returning In Colors from previous years)! We are 
welcoming back some of your favorites, moving some colors around, and 
introducing one brand-new color, so take a look!"</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">So what does this mean???? It means you'd better take advantage of the free shipping this weekend to stock up on any retiring color supplies you want before they sell out!</p>
<p>Starting today, April 4, 2013, all retiring color ink, paper, refills, ribbon, and accessories will only be available 
<em><strong><span style="color: #c00000;">while supplies last.</span></strong></em> This means that some products will <strong>not</strong> be available
 through the retired list period. <strong><span style="color: #c00000;">The free shipping 
promotion means this is a great time for you to get your 
favorites before they are gone!</span></strong></p>
<p>I hope you love the changes as much as I do...I've developed an unnatural attachment to Wisteria Wonder, Soft Sky and Pool Party. In fact, I'm so tickled they're included that I only had a momentary lump in my throat over losing Baja Breeze and Regal Rose. And did you see that there's a brand new color, <strong>Smoky Slate</strong>? Can't wait to see that baby.</p>

Remember to check out the obvious ink pads, markers, and card stock but don't forget the ink refills, ribbon and brads. Stock up on the retiring colors you love because they will be flying out the door this weekend. Get 'em while you can -- once they're gone, they're gone for good.</p>
<p>•Take advantage of free shipping to order extras of the colors that are staying.</p>
<p>•Remember that free shipping applies to ANY product, so throw in anything on your wishlist from the current catalogs.</p>
<p>•Order $150 and choose an additional $25 in free product; order $200 and choose an additional $30 in free product; order $250 and choose an additional $40 in free product; order $300 and choose an additional $50 in free product...and pay $0 for shipping!</p>
<p>On Saturday, <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><a href="http://www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/default.aspx&amp;dbwsdemoid=98324" target="_blank" title="My online store">GO HERE TO PLACE YOUR ORDER.</a></strong></span></p>
<p>Questions? Give me a call or send me an email and let me know what you think about the changes. Tomorrow I'll review the current special promotions and offers that are not in the Catalog so you'll have a chance to add those to your free shipping order.</p>

<p>Mikelle and Michael were married last week in a lovely ceremony in the north Georgia mountains. Two weeks of company, airport trips, making gift bags and favors ended in a fabulous weekend of wedding festivities.</p>
<p>Becky is next. Her marriage to Rick is in June and we're well on the way with the arrangements, even if it there are moments when it feels like there is so much left to be done.</p>
<p>Here are two quick pictures that Becky shot (the wedding photos are not back from the photographer yet).</p>
<p>
<a class="asset-img-link" href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017d42830fda970c-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, '_blank', 'width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0' ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Wedding_Photo_1" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e54ee9bee78833017d42830fda970c" src="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017d42830fda970c-320wi" title="Wedding_Photo_1" /></a></p>
<p>Are they an adorable couple, or what?</p>
<p> 
<a class="asset-img-link" href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017c3853f9de970b-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, '_blank', 'width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0' ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Mackenzie_Ribbon" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e54ee9bee78833017c3853f9de970b" src="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017c3853f9de970b-250wi" style="width: 240px;" title="Mackenzie_Ribbon" /></a> </p>
<p>And this is the most adorable flower girl ever -- my Smooshy girl. She was so fascinated with the Stampin' Up! ribbon on her basket she forgot to throw the rose petals. It was a big job for a two-and-a-half-year-old, and she was just precious.</p>
<p>I'll be sharing some of the crafty items I made for Mikelle's wedding later this week -- invitations, thank you cards, favors, and more. I have much to catch up on and I know there are going to be some pretty big announcements tomorrow, so be sure to check out my blog Thursday to see what the big stampin' news is.</p>
<p>My guess is color changes; what do you think?</p>

        <summary>The Swallowtail stamp set (Wood #; Clear #129216) stamp set has been a big hit in my parties and classes this month...a breathtaking butterfly focal point for scrapbook pages and cards.

Karen has graciously shared some templates and video tutuorials to take your use of the pop up dies up several notches.</p>
<p>The Pop-Up dies were introduced in the Spring Catalog, just a few weeks ago. </p>
<p>The Card Base Pop 'n Cuts die (#130099) is magnetic, so you can insert the magnetic Pop 'n Cuts 
Dress Form Die inside this base to cut a fun pop-up card. The base measures  
4-1/4" x 11".</p>
<p>
<a class="asset-img-link" href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017d4115a5d3970c-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, '_blank', 'width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0' ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="PopNCuts_Base" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e54ee9bee78833017d4115a5d3970c" src="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017d4115a5d3970c-120wi" title="PopNCuts_Base" /></a><br /><br /></p>
<p>The Pop n'n Cuts Dress Form Die (#130100) is 3-1/4" x 4-5/16".</p>
<p>
<a class="asset-img-link" href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017d41163e29970c-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, '_blank', 'width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0' ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="PopNCutsDressDie" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e54ee9bee78833017d41163e29970c" src="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017d41163e29970c-120wi" title="PopNCutsDressDie" /></a></p>
<p>Then there's the <strong>All Dressed Up</strong> stamp set (Wood #129171; Clear #129174).</p>
<p>
<a class="asset-img-link" href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017c36e6e38a970b-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, '_blank', 'width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0' ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="PopNCuts_DressStamp" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e54ee9bee78833017c36e6e38a970b" src="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017c36e6e38a970b-200wi" style="width: 200px;" title="PopNCuts_DressStamp" /></a></p>
<p>And you can easily cut out the stamped dress image from this set using the Dress Up Framelits Die (#130101). The largest design is 1-1/2" x 4-1/4" (3 dies).</p>
<p>
<a class="asset-img-link" href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017ee88a1d50970d-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, '_blank', 'width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0' ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="PopNCuts_Framelits" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e54ee9bee78833017ee88a1d50970d" src="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017ee88a1d50970d-200wi" style="width: 200px;" title="PopNCuts_Framelits" /></a></p>
<p>The All Dressed Up stamp set and Framelits dies are available as a bundle for 15% off (#131095).</p>
<p>How do you use them? Here's a video done by the designer herself, Karen Buniston.</p>
<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/pFfETxLJnmw" width="560" /> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>
<a class="asset-img-link" href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017ee88a2cca970d-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, '_blank', 'width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0' ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Karen_Hearts" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00e54ee9bee78833017ee88a2cca970d" src="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee9bee78833017ee88a2cca970d-320wi" title="Karen_Hearts" /></a></p>
But that's not all! Karen also has this video, showing you how she created a "floating floor" for the pop-up card so she could attach items (like the hearts above) in front of the dress. When you're finished watching the video, <a href="http://stampjourney.typepad.com/2012/Karen_su-floating-floor-template.pdf" target="_blank" title="Floating Floor Templ]ate">click here to download</a> the Floating Floor Template.<br />
<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Za9DXQJsTJQ" width="560" /> </p>
<p>To order any of the Pop-Up items, <a href="http://www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/CategoryPage.aspx?categoryid=1176" target="_blank" title="Shop now">go to my online ordering site</a>. Don't forget it's Sale-A-Bration and you'll get a free gift with every $50 you spend.</p>

<p><em>Laissez les bon temp roulez</em> means "Let the good times roll." And roll they did this past weekend!</p>
<p>We dined on red beans and rice, jambalaya and corn crab bisque. We drank Hurricanes. We danced to the rhythms of New Orleans jazz and then we drank more Hurricanes. In between, we tried to see who could best pronounce Tchoupitoulas street. Strangely enough, the winners were the people who drank the most Hurricanes.</p>
<p>There were green, purple and gold beads everywhere. And not one, but two King cakes. </p>
<p>It was the Big Easy transported to D.C.</p>
<p>May your Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) be terrific!</p>

<p>Use a Pool Party ink refill to watercolor a square in the middle. Next, stamp the “love” image in Versamark ink, then emboss it with White Stampin' Emboss Powder and the Heat Tool.</p>
