BOGO - October 15-21, 2023

I'm excited to announce a BOGO - just in time for holiday crafting! 

On from October 15-21, 2023

Here's how to shop the BOGO:

Please ready all info below in order to avoid disappointment. Thank you so much!

1. Join my private BOGO Facebook group. 

2. On October 15 @ 7:30 pm Atlantic, I'll let everyone into the group. 

3, Select retired items from my BOGO group that you’d like to receive FREE (you just pay shipping). 

4. Type SOLD in the comments under your selections. Please note: first come, first served! Item will go to the person who has the earliest time stamp on Facebook.

5. Record the ID number and name of each item you speak for. A Shopping Tracker is available on the group for download, under Featured.

6. Send me your list of BOGO items, with ID numbers & names, and wait for confirmation from me.

7. After I confirm your total, spend an equivalent value (excluding tax & shipping) on anything from the Stampin' Up!® online store or current catalogues, by shopping with me thru: 
(a) placing an order on my Stampin’ Up!® online store 
OR 
(b) messaging me your order.

8. Pay for both your new products and any shipping costs on your BOGO retired items, and I’ll ship you your FREE BOGO retired products! Please allow until 31 October for shipping.



Example:

Anna selected a $25 stamp set and a $35 die set on the BOGO group, for a total of $60 in retired products. I sent her a shipping invoice. Once she paid it, she selected and paid for $60 (plus tax & shipping) of new products from the Stampin’ Up!® store. Then I shipped her retired items. She received $60 of retired items FREE!

 


Helpful Hints:

  • Once you have paid for your new product order, it will not be possible to select additional items from the BOGO group. So please ensure you have selected all your retired items BEFORE placing your order for current products.
  • Please do not try to view retired items through the group feed, as it will mostly show sold items. 
  • To view all available retired items, select Albums:
    • On a Computer – go to the Media tab and click Albums
    • On a Phone – click the Albums tab near the top of the group
  • Some items are brand new and others are used. Please refer to item descriptions for details.
  • Sorry, no refunds or exchanges, as all BOGO retired items are FREE.
  • Multiple copies of some items are available. On these items, several people may comment SOLD and receive the item, so please read descriptions carefully.
  • To see whether others have already spoken for an item, select “Most Recent” in the comments section. Then the most recent comments will be at the top and oldest comments at the bottom. 
  • If an item you are interested in has already been spoken for, comment "NIL" to be next in line, should the deal fall through.
  • Please do not speak for an item unless you are committed to purchasing it, as it is unfair to other shoppers.


How to Receive Your Selected Items:

  • Within 24 hours of receiving your Shopping Tracker/list, I will email you an invoice with the shipping cost of your retired items. 
  • You have 24 hours from then to do two things: 
    • pay the shipping invoice (unless you will pick up in St Stephen)
    • place an order of equivalent value to that of your free items (before tax & shipping) on my Stampin’ Up!® Store or by messaging me your order
  • Kindly pay your shipping invoice via e-transfer to julies.craft.attic@gmail.com.
  • Please use this host code in your online orders: P4VHKNGV
  • Failure to pay within the specified 24 hours will mean your retired items go back up for sale.
  • Once you have paid, I will post your items by 31 October.


How Shipping Works:

  • New Item purchases from catalogues/online store: Shipping (and taxes) will be charged as usual.
  • Retired Item purchases from BOGO group: Shipping will be kept as low as possible, within these guidelines:
    • Pickup of retired items in St Stephen means NO shipping cost!
    • Canada-wide shipping is based on thickness and weight:
      • Items less than 2 cm in thickness and less than 500 g in weight can usually ship via lettermail, for a maximum charge of $7.
        • This applies to most stamp sets, dies, and paper products cut to 6”x”6
        • Certain other items may fit letter mail guidelines as well, depending on dimensions
    • Larger and heavier items (e.g., punches, kits in boxes, etc.), or purchases of multiple items, must ship at parcel rate. Here are the Canada Post rates for flat rate boxes, which typically hold multiple items:
      • Small – 35x26x5 cm up to 5 kg - $19.99 plus tax
      • Medium – 39x26x12 cm up to 5 kg - $24.99 plus tax
      • Large – 40x30x19 cm up to 5 kg - $32.99 plus tax


If you have any questions, just ask! 

Enjoy the BOGO sale, and thanks so much for choosing to shop with me!

Wishing you a wonderfully crafty day,


Julie

Kit & Cuppa - Christmas Everywhere Kit

Friends, it's time for another edition of Kit & Cuppa! On Fridays @ 2 pm Atlantic, I hop onto Facebook Live for a few minutes to make a card from a kit. 

The Christmas Everywhere kit features traditional trees plus die cuts of decorated cacti and palm trees. Great for friends & relatives who spend their winters south - or to just add a fun twist!

Click here for my demo


Everything you need comes in the box, so the kit is great for newbies to paper-crafting, even those who consider themselves to be "non-crafty." 

The kit is also perfect for experienced crafters. Take it on the go, for a relaxing time at a cafe or a friend's house.

If you've been curious about card-making but didn't want to invest a lot of time or money, this all-inclusive kit is a fabulous choice!


The Christmas Everywhere Kit makes 9 cards, 3 each of 3 designs. Decorated envelopes are also included. 

Need one or more of these kits? Just scroll down to the end of this post and click on the kit to purchase!

I hope you enjoyed this kit as much as I did, friends. Don't miss my Special Offers below, including FREE card supplies for 4 cards with $60 order!

Two New Holiday Classes!

Friends, I have a couple of new holiday card classes for you today, hooray!

There's something for everyone, from beginners to avid crafters.

My first new class uses the terrific new kit called Home for the Holidays.


This kit is great for those who have never crafted before - even those who identify as "non-crafty." Because everything you need for the projects comes in the beautifully decorated box! Even a bonus FREE tube of glitter glue this month.

Having said that this kit is great for newbies to paper-crafting, I should also say that it's a wonderful choice for more experienced crafters, too. I love Paper Pumpkin kits. There's a new one each month, and you can always count on beautiful seasonal content. 

But I particularly favour this one for its gorgeous design. I love the architecture of old buildings and live in a house that's 100+ years old. So this kit really appeals to me!

Included are supplies for 8 sparkly cards, along with decorated coordinating envelopes. Plus adhesives, stamps, ink, and more. No need to invest tons of money or time. All you need is the kit box and a free evening!

My second new class is the Creative Cafe November Make & Take Class. It's based on the sacred-themed Night Divine Bundle. Spoiler alert: we'll be doing some heat embossing!

The monthly Creative Cafe Make & Take Class is offered exclusively to Creative Cafe members, for just $15 per month. Want to know more about joining Creative Cafe? Click here

Coffee with Friends Simple Card

Happy fall, y'all!

It was such a wet summer in our part of the country - and it stayed hot for so long - that I'm just now realizing that autumn is upon us. I love the season, with its cool nights, warm days, and brilliant colours!

So today's card honours fall, plus another of my favourite things: coffee! 


A clickable photo supply list is available at the end of this post.


To make this card, I started by die-cutting a small label from Basic White Cardstock, using the Scalloped Contours Dies. Then I stamped my sentiment from the Coffee with Friends Stamp Set onto it in Early Espresso Ink. (This colour is even named for coffee!)

I also stamped my image from the same stamp set, using Early Espresso Ink, onto a 3" Basic White Cardstock square. This stamp set allows for colouring in of the images - but I wanted to keep my card simple. This technique allows for making multiple cards easily, too.

Here's a look at the terrific Coffee with Friends Stamp Set:

My next step was to adhere the stamped square to a 3 1/4" Petal Pink Cardstock square. 

I then attached a 3 3/4" x 5" panel of Inked Botanicals DSP to a 4" x 5 1/4" panel of Early Espresso Cardstock.

Inked Botanicals DSP can be used at any time of the year, but I find the bright yet earthy colours very autumnal:

To finish the card, I used Stampin' Dimensionals™ to attach the larger panels to a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Petal Pink Cardstock card base. Then I used Stampin' Dimensionals™ again, this time to add the stamped items to the card. My final step was to embellish with Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins.

Thanks so much for joining me today, friends! I hope you enjoyed this project. 

You're warmly invited to check out my Special Offers, including supplies for 4 FREE cards when you place a $60 order (pre-tax/shipping) with me this month!

Little Monkey Swap Card

Friends, today I'd like to share a swap card that I received. Swaps are great, because they refresh our own creativity by showing us others' designs. It's also a fabulous chance to see stamp sets we haven't purchased - yet, lol! 

There was no information with the card to identify the creator, so I unfortunately can't say who made it. But I want to acknowledge and thank them for their creativity nonetheless!

Here's the card:


I couldn't resist taking the photo of the card next to our monkey-themed banana holder. It looked like the monkeys were having a conversation!

The card features the super-cute Little Monkey bundle, which comes with a stamp set and coordinating punch. Ce produit est รฉgalement disponible en franรงais.

Both stamps and sentiments are really fun and let you go bananas! (Sorry, I couldn't resist! ๐Ÿ˜‰) They're easy on the pocketbook, too, at just $53 for the bundle.


I'll include a clickable supply list with the bundle and other items used in the card at the end of this post. There's no die cutting, so minimal equipment is required.

Thanks for joining me to celebrate this whimsical swap card! If you'd like to order the bundle, I'm happy to help - just message me. Or simply click on the supply list at the end of the post.

Have fun monkeying around with this cute bundle! ๐Ÿ’
