With Black Friday pretty much extending through the whole weekend, today being Small Business Saturday and Monday being Cyber Monday, this is quite the weekend for shopping. I've always thought it was rather crazy when people would camp out right after Thanksgiving dinner to be first in line on Black Friday, but this year that has been taken to new extremes.  Here there were people camping out ALL WEEK in line at Best Buy to be first in line to buy that $200 TV or whatever doorbusters they thought they had to have. In fact, one family that was interviewed said this is now their Thanksgiving tradition….they have their Thanksgiving dinner while camped out in line in front of the store!!!  Really???!!

Well, Stampin' Up! makes shopping way easier than all that!! You don't have to camp out in front of Stampin' Up! or even my house to get some good deals on Stampin' Up! products! The Stampin' Up! Online Extravaganza started early before Black Friday, and to give you plenty of time goes on past Cyber Monday….until Wed. Nov. 28th. You'll be able to get any of the discounts from 20% – 50% off at your convenience either online or by contacting me….with no camping out on a sidewalk! And I bet your Stampin' Up! purchases will be much better quality than the deals that some of these stores are offering! There are no cheap versions of stamping supplies made just to get you "in the store" in hopes you will buy something bigger and better. It's all the same stamps and accessories we can always buy, backed by the Stampin' Up! reputation, just discounted to make shopping fun!

Don't miss out on these discounts!  Even though they are out there longer than a weekend, don't let the time pass.  They will end on Wednesday, Nov. 28 so don't wait until the last minute and risk a computer snafu or unexpected company or something else that happens to prevent you from ordering!

Shop the Stampin' Up! Online Extravaganza right now from the comfort of your computer chair!   No tents on sidewalks! This is shopping at its best!

I made this Christmas ornament with my Big Shot, the Snow Flurry Bigz Die and some roof flashing! The Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine is so useful in all kinds of papercrafting!  It can cut through all kinds of materials and makes your papercrafting life so much easier and fun!  And guess what??  TODAY ONLY, the Big Shot is on sale at Stampin' Up! for 20% off!!  You can also pick up the Big Shot Doctor's Bag on sale today only if you think you will be transporting your Big Shot, want a spot to put it away, or need another travel bag for yourself!  Yes, it is that nice!  You can use it for an overnight bag and look like you are traveling in style!!

There are lots of Stampin' Up! products on sale this week during the Online Extravaganza from November 19 – 28.  Today ONLY as 3 Doorbusters and again the last day, Wed. Nov. 28th.

If you are putting in a large order ($150 or over) for yourself online, be SURE you go directly to my online store and not the Stampin' Up! general website so that you will receive your Hostess Rewards! If you see my name up in the right-hand corner, you are in the right place!  If you need any help, just contact me!  I can also put the order in for you, if you prefer.  But the fastest, easiest way is to do it online since you can put in your own payment easily.

Stampin' Up! is offering a test run of the Texture Boutique Embossing Machine from Sizzix in the North American markets. There are 4,000 available to be sold only while supplies last. If this product test goes well, they may offer the Texture Boutique again in the future.

The Texture Boutique works with Textured Impressions Embossing Folders to transform ordinary cardstock, paper, metallic foil, or vellum into an embossed, textured masterpiece. This machine embosses only; it does not die cut. Because this is a product test, the Texture Boutique is not branded with the Stampin' Up! logo. It comes in Sizzix packaging and is the same color and design that is sold in stores. We recommend you read the included instructions before using the Texture Boutique.

Stampin' Up! is offering a special value bundle that saves you $5.90. If you prefer, you can also purchase the Texture Boutique alone. Looking for stocking stuffers? Pick up some additional embossing folders.
