PAPER PUMPKIN PRICE INCREASE
Starting May 1st, there will be a slight adjustment to the prices of our beloved Paper Pumpkin Kits. But hold onto your crafting hats—this tiny change is packed with potential!
๐ŸŒŸ Why the Price Tweak? Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin subscription box, including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit
๐Ÿš€ Grab Your Savings Time Machine! This is your golden moment to lock in the current prices. Scoop up Pre-Paid Paper Pumpkin Kit codes for 1, 3, 6, or 12 months before the new pricing takes effect. Imagine all the extra glitter and glue you can get with the savings!

Best of the Retiring List: Supremely Awesome Triple Tier
YOU'RE SUPREMELY AWESOME

It's time to bid a bittersweet farewell to a truly saucy companion in my crafting kitchen - the Stampin' Up! Supremely Awesome Stamp Set. As we pack away this treasure, I just had to whisk you away on a little detour to celebrate its glory days, especially through a project that's as cheesy as it gets: a Triple Tier flipping pizza card!
Imagine, if you will, the master of the feast, Luigi the Italian Chef, greeting you with open arms (and a mustache full of secrets) on the front of this marvel. With a pull of a tab, voilร  - an extravaganza of pizzas perform an aerial ballet, flipping delightfully in the air, much to the delight of anyone lucky enough to witness this spectacle.
Setting the stage for Luigi's show is the vibrant backdrop of red and white stripes, courtesy of the Brights collection designer paper. Alas, like the stamp set, this paper too is taking its final bow, retiring to make room for new stars in the crafting universe.
Now, let's sprinkle some cheese and shine a spotlight on the Supremely Awesome Stamp Set itself. This isn't just any ordinary stamp set; it's a culinary journey packed into rubber and foam. Bursting with extra cheese and equipped with three hearty greetings, it's the go-to for creating the perfect pizza-themed project for all the pie aficionados out there. And who says you need a special occasion to play with this set? Any day is a good day for a pizza party on paper!
As we fold the pizza box on the Supremely Awesome Stamp Set, let's remember the joy it brought to our tables and the smiles it cooked up in our craft rooms. It's not just a stamp set; it's been a companion for those days when only a slice of creativity could satisfy our crafty cravings. Here's to all the pizzas—both paper and real—we've shared along the way! ๐Ÿ•✨

Happy crafting!
Tami

Celebrating the Eclipse with an Eclipse Card!
SLIMLINE ECLIPSE CARD
In anticipation of today's astronomical spectacle, an eclipse, I found my creativity steering towards the cosmos. The event isn't just a marvel of the skies but a muse for my latest project—an "Eclipse" technique slimline card. 
For this project, I dove into the soon-to-be-retired Stargazing Designer Series Paper, which proved to be the perfect backdrop for our celestial theme. The starry sky and space-themed patterns brought the vastness of the universe to the palm of my hands. The choice to use the Alphabet A La Mode Die set for cutting out "Happy Birthday" directly from this cosmic backdrop was deliberate, aiming to blend the celebration with the infinity of space. And of course, no starry night is complete without a sprinkle of sparkle, hence the addition of Rhinestone stars to mimic the gleaming cosmos.
Crafting the Envelope: The First ImpressionThere are 2 paths you can take for the slimline card envelope. The traditional route with a business-sized envelope offers simplicity and convenience, but I can't resist the charm of creating a custom envelope. Matching the envelope with the card's Designer Paper, it sets the stage for what lies within, promising a journey through the stars before the card is even seen.
Instructions & Video Tutorial: Guiding Through the GalaxyIf you're eager to recreate this stellar journey, detailed instructions, measurements, and a complete supply list are readily available in a free PDF in the INSTRUCTIONS section. 
The Stargazing Suite: A Farewell to a Galactic CompanionThe core of this project, the Stargazing Suite Collection, deserves its ode. As it prepares for retirement, I can't help but reflect on the cosmic journeys it has enabled. From crafting astronauts to rocket ships and creating paper planets, this collection has been a gateway to the galaxy. Its galactic stamps, cosmic dies, and holographic paper have not just been tools but portals to crafting our very own universes.
NOTE: THE STARGAZING PAPER IS GOING ON SALE TOMORROW 40% OFF WHILE IT LASTS
Don't let the adventure end here. Dive into my Stargazing SERIES section below to discover more tutorials inspired by the Stargazing Suite. As we bid farewell to this celestial collection, let’s make the most of its remaining time, crafting our tributes to the night sky.
Conclusion: A Cosmic ConnectionAs we look up at the eclipse today, let’s remember the beauty and mystery of the cosmos that we can capture, even in something as simple as a handmade card. Join me in this crafting journey and let's make connections that span galaxies.

Happy crafting!
Tami
