Coming soon - NEW Stampin' Up! Rewards system!

 

Introducing Stampin' Up! Stampin’ Rewards – a program that works for everyone! 

NOTE: The Stampin’ Up! website will be down April 15th from 8am – 2pm mountain time to convert to the new Rewards System.

Once the system is back up on April 15th every order you place at a minimum of $20,will earn you 10% in rewards.  Follow these steps at that time.

  1. You must have an account in my online store – Maureen’s Online Store
  2. You MUST opt in (a pop up box for this will appear the first time you shop beginning April 15th)
  3. The new program will track your rewards and show the rewards you have accumulated to use every time you shop and you can decide how many rewards you want to use on each order.
  4. Rewards can be accumulated for a YEAR.
  5. The new program will automatically use your oldest rewards.
  6. AND IT gets better…here’s an example -if you have $20 in rewards and are placing an order, you can choose to apply $30 to your order AND YOU WILL STILL EARN rewards on any additional part of your order.
  7. For family and friends without a computer or no desire to shop themselves online – I will still be available to help with placing orders, but rewards will not accumulate for you in the site.
  8. If at any time you decide to join my team as a discount shopper, any rewards you have will transfer with you because discount shoppers earn rewards too.
  9. If you check out as a guest or haven’t opted in, you won’t earn rewards –so be sure to create an account and opt into the REWARDS!

NOTE: we are no longer using HOST CODES - so no need to worry about those any more.

Three steps to remember:

  • #1 Make sure you are shopping with me - my picture and name should show at the top of your screen.
  • #2 Create an account or LOG IN to your current account
  • #3 A pop up will appear starting April 15th (only on the first time you login) – make sure you click that to earn your rewards moving forward.
If you ever have problems feel free to contact customer service at 1-800-STAMPUP and they will be there to help you.  I'm really excited about this new system that will help more of you earn rewards on your purchases.  As always, thank you for your continued support!  ~Maureen

Did you know that Stampin' Up! no longer has a Retiring List or a Clearance Rack?  It's true - they have been combined to be come the Last Chance list of products that are available only while supplies last - some at sale price, some at full price - but all amazing!
Here is a favorite of mine that will be going away when sold out.
*
Thought I'd share a few of the fun cards I have made with this set - and note, the coordinating Labeled with Love punch, will be continuing.
My first uses the Dotted Circles 3D EF as a back drop for some birthday wishes.  I love the way the little packages become the focal point.
My next is a simple just for you note that uses the punch to create a fun layout.  I love this little butterfly from the set and popped their wings out to give the card some dimension.
And finally, one of my favorites - I am a simple and clean stamper, and I just love the simplicity of this one.  I made an entire set of note cards using just this flower and coordinating colors with different sentiments - how sweet is this!
Be sure to check out the Last Chance list under Shop Now and then Specials at www.stampingwithmaureen.stampinup.net to see all that is currently available there.

ICS Blog Hop - April 2025 - Last Chance List

Welcome to our Inspire - Create - Share Blog Hop for April 2025!  So glad you are here! This month we are focusing on products on the LAST CHANCE list - that's right - these products are only available while supplies last!  This is a great category with many wonderful items - and a lot of them greatly discounted - so be sure to check it out.  You can find it by going to your demonstrator's website, clicking on specials and then Last Chance.
Now check out my project - then hop on through all the other blogs!
~*~*~*~*~
So, this month I am featuring one of my all time favorite masculine sets, that will be going away - Legendary ride!  Looks like the set is gone - but these dies can definately stand on their own.
And this Metal Plate embossing folder is perfect to use with them.
I have loved this set since it first came out - maybe because my hubby worked for Harley-Davidson for years.  He is celebrating a milestone birthday this week, and I wanted to celebrate him in a special way.  What do you think of this card?
I love the way the dies allow you to build all the pieces of the motorcycle - it's just so fun to put together.  I used the metal plate embossing folder on DSP from Nature's Sweetness, to give it a little more depth and character.  Here is the inside of the card -
And of course, we can't forget the envelope.

~*~*~*~*~*~

 Hope you liked these fun ideas!
Now, be sure to follow the hop through and see what other creative ideas this team came up with.
