I am sad to say that there will no longer be Sale-a-bration in January. 

 

INSTEAD Stampin' UP! will be rolling out a "Product of the Month" beginning this month. Years ago we did a special like this every month & it was amazing, so I'm very excited about this!!!

You may purchase this exclusive NEW product for only $5 with your $75 order.

*This is while supplies last only for the "Product of the Month". It might sell out fast & it might still be available next month??
