RUBBER ROOM LIVE AT LUNCHTIME, APRIL 14, 2026

Did you miss my Rubber Room Live at LunchTime yesterday? If so, you can catch the YouTube version here.

This week, I featured the Scalloped Blooms Bundle, which is sneak peek and will be available in the upcoming May catalog. During the video I share four different cards focusing on this Bundle. I also share lots of tips and tricks for embossing, flicking/spattering, layering, and even one for using the Color Coach on your ink pads for color inspiration.

Please leave me a comment and let me know which is your favorite card, technique or tip.

DOUBLE REWARDS IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN!

Double Rewards are just around the corner. They only last for two days, so be sure to mark your calendar for April 15-17, 2026 and get your shopping list ready.

If you aren't familiar with Stampin' Rewards, this how they work. 1) you shop Stampin' Up!; 2) you earn 10% of your purchase in Stampin' Rewards that can be used on your next order, or you can save them up for a big purchase, or you can gift them to a friend or team member. The fine print: 1) you must have an SU! customer account; 2) you need to opt in for Stampin' Rewards. It's that simple!

Here are a few suggestions to maximize your stamping budget:

1) Shop the Last Chance List, as lots of products have been discounted.

2) Shop those items that will go up in cost when the new May catalog begins.

3) Don't forget about those 2024-2026 retiring In Color items.

You can shop my online store any time 24/7: rubberroom.stampinup.net
