Due to a series of circumstances beyond control including the West Coast Dock Worker’s Strike, the Butterfly Thinlit dies have been unavailable to order for what seems like forever. I know many of you have been patiently (?) waiting to get your hands on them. No one feels worse about this situation than Stampin’ Up! themselves. If you can hang in there just a little while longer, your patience will be handsomely rewarded! Friday evening, they posted the following information on their Demonstrator Website:
Like you, we sincerely hoped that the Butterflies Thinlits Dies would arrive in time for Sale-A-Bration, and when that didn’t happen, again like you, we hoped they would be here in time for our Free Shipping promotion. Unfortunately, that is not going to be the case.
Originally they were scheduled to arrive by April 8; we then received notification from our supplier that although the ship had reached the west coast port, the container containing the Thinlits was still on the ship. We have since received verification from a third party that the vessel is still in the port–and though it docked on Friday, April 3, the container with the Thinlits has yet to be pulled.
Because the container has yet to be discharged from the vessel, the soonest the Butterflies Thinlits will arrive in our warehouse is the beginning of the week of April 13; our best estimate for orderability, based on this information, is April 15.
We realize you and your customers may be disappointed you were not able to purchase the Thinlits in time to receive Sale-A-Bration rewards–especially in the discounted bundles. Therefore, from the day Butterflies Thinlits are again available through April 30, we are bringing you two special offers:
- Get the Butterflies Thinlits at a 15 percent discount–just $21.20!
- Buy any of the Butterflies Thinlits Bundles at the already-discounted price and choose one of three FREE Sale-A-Bration items (only available while supplies last)!
Stay tuned – as soon as the Thinlits are available, I’ll let you know!!!

It’s the first of the month, and time for another Di’s Country INKers Blog Hop! That little Easter Bunny will be coming around in just a few short weeks. I’m hoping (praying) that we will have some spring flowers showing to guide him on his way!
I’m far to impatient to wait for my tulips to bloom, so I stamped some flowers of my own. These lovely blooms are from the Indescribable Gift set. I stamped them in Versamark on Whisper White cardstock, then heat embossed in gold. The petals were colored with the Pink Pirouette Blendabilities set and the leaves with Wild Wasabi Blendies.
To create the gold frame, I used the second largest of the Oval Framelits. In order to leave just a little of the gold oval showing, I traced the outside of the same framelit on the back of a Pink Pirouette layer and hand cut it. It was embossed with the Spring Flowers Embossing folder before layering in over the gold oval. I added a little bow with 1/8″ gold ribbon, and finished off the piece with some Gold Stampin’ Glitter on the stamen.
Thanks for visiting today – now off you go to see what Kathya has made for you. Hope you have a great rest of your weekend, and if I don’t talk to you, Happy Easter!!

Happy New Year and thanks for taking time today to hop along with us as we preview the Occasions and Sale-a-Bration catalogs. So, what did you think of Diana’s project – cute, eh?!
When I first saw this Designer Series Paper at the Live Catalog Premiere event in early December, I just knew that would be one of the first things I played with. Rarely is there a DSP pack in which I like every side of every sheet, but the Painted Blooms DSP pack is the exception to the norm. I’m going to have a really hard time using one side over the other – oh well, guess I’ll just have to order several packs! <wink>
After I got a chance to browse the Sale-a-Bration catalog and saw the lemon image from A Happy Thing stamp set, I knew immediately that this would work great with the blues and greens in the DSP. I just love the combination of yellow with blue – it makes me feel very cheerful… So what did I color the lemon with? Why the Daffodil Delight Blendabilities marker set, of course! And this year, Blendabilities marker sets are available as a Sale-a-Bration award – how cool is that?!
Allow me to gush a little bit when I tell you that this year’s Occasions and Sale-a-Bration catalogs are simply fabulous. I can’t tell you how tempted I am to order at least one of every item in them. If you haven’t gotten your copies yet, please, give me a holler and I’ll get some out to you. I’m serious when I say you won’t want to miss these!!
Alrighty then – I’ve got lots more new product to play with, so I’m going to sent you off to see what Kathya has cooked up for you. Take a peek below to see all the ingredients I used on this card. Oh, and in case you get off track, a full list of our hoppers can also be found below.
Again, Happy New Year to you; I sincerely hope yours is happy, healthy, productive, and prosperous!
