131313-V2

Let's make it official!

I'm guessing that you all know what Friday the 13th brings Ü Yes, it brings a promotional sale at my webstore Ellen Hutson LLC. Once again on Friday, July 13th any order that is placed between the hours of 6:00 am and 7:00 pm Pacific Daylight Time (that is a total of 13 hours) will receive a 13% discount on the entire order.  Please remember to enter the code: 131313-V2

Enter it exactly as it is shown above during that 13 hour window and the discount is yours on any and all products posted on my webstore that day!

Now here is where it gets REALLY exciting!!! I am working SO hard to get up all the following items so that you truly can celebrate that day:

• 36 incredibly, adorable new release stamps from the Lockhart Stamp Company,
• Copic Sketch Markers, yes - you heard me right!!! I will have the exact ship date (hopefully tomorrow - Ron and Marianne - are you reading this? Insert wink!)
• Spellbinders Patented Technology Nestability Dies for Preorder (I will be asking for a small deposit to ensure your commitment, as well as making certain that I order enough dies to meet your needs. Being that they are not available until the end of August I do not want to hold on to your $$$ that entire time, but I needed some way of keeping an accurate accounting of who is ordering what. Specific directions will be posted on my site that day.)

I have tried to stock plenty of all the regular items as well. I have my team at the ready to try and ensure that we keep with the shipping service that we have become known for.

Your enthusiasm and support never ceases to amaze me! It is my pleasure to try and provide you with the best products and service available.

Here is another reminder regarding a challenge I have posted. You are really, truly going to want to participate in this challenge!!! That's all I'm saying Ü There is nothing like the element of surprise that makes me giddy :D

Now here is where my simple drawing is going to take place - yep, you've got it! All you have to do is post your answer to the following questions to be entered in a drawing for yet another surprise. Trust me, my surprises are really, really good Ü

1. Do you own any Lockhart Stamp Company images?
2. Have you ever heard of the Spellbinders dies before and have you used a Spellbinders die before?
3. Do you create mostly cards or scrapbook pages?

Thank you for joining in the fun and post away ladies! The automatic number generator "thingy" will be picking our winners on Friday and I will then be posting the winners names along with the prizes for both the challenge and this post!

Hi, Ellen, this is so exciting. Your blog is really heating up. As to the questions: No, I don't own any Lockhart stamps...yet. Yes, I've heard of Spellbinders before from a friend. I'm primarily a card maker. Thanks so much for all the excitment and for sharing.

[Jo]

1. No, I don't own any Lockhart stamps yet.
2. Have heard you mention Spellbinders in previous postings on your blog. The new nesting dies look extremely interesting.
3. Cards

[Sue]

I do not own any Lockhart stamps, yet. Nor do I own anything made by Spellbinders but I've read alot about them lately! :0) I'm more of a cardmaker.

[Melissa]

1. I don't own any Lockhart Stamp Company images yet - I will after my first order from you later today!
2. YES - I have a Wizard and lots of Spellbinders and other companies dies but I actually use my Wiz more for embossing stencils and all kinds of flat objects and household items... love making textures on cardstock... oh, I also do a lot of re-creating charms and such in metals mostly.
3. Cardmaker. Only made one scrapbook page in my life and that one was digital.
PS I've enjoyed your blog since you first started and want to congratulate you on your store and your many, many successes and accolades. I think we all wanna be as creative as you are!

[Cheryl Sims]

Nope, I don't own any Lockhart stamps (but wish I did as I love them, I asked at the LSS yesterday and they never heard of them so I told them to check it out (Enchanted Cottage outside of Winston Salem, NC))

Yes, I have heard of the Wizard machine but I have the Big Shot so never checked into it further. Not sure where I learned about Wizard (probably splitcoast)

I make mostly cards now but do scrapbook a little.
thanks so much.

Thanks, Carol

[Nancy Kurul]

No stamps yet; I've HEARD but not seen the Spellbinders dies, and definitely card maker (have switch to digiscrapping for scrapbooking)!

THANKS!

Nancy

[Mary O.K.]

Wow! So much work in such a short time, Ellen!

1. No, no Lockhart Stamps yet, although a number of them are calling my name!

2.Oh, my, yes-- heard LOTS about Spellbinders and have seriously considered a purchase. However, limited craft room space means that I need to "retire" one of my machines if I get another and I'm not quite ready to do that.

3. I create cards exclusively.

[lcollins]

No I don't have any Lockhart stamps yet, I have just recently found your website. But I love your stamps. I have only learned about the Wizard through you but I an anxious to learn more as I am a punch fanatic. I do both card making and stamping.

[janice]

Yes, i own 5 lockhart stamps!

I read about SPELLBINDERS on your blog, don't own any of the dies or the machine (YET! *wink* psst santa hubby are you reading this?)

I am 80% card maker and 20% scrapper. i have made many albums, gift cans and scrapped at CKU, but my 1st love has aways been stamping.

Can't wait for the sale, i am running low on pearls and always need NEW stamps!! HOORAY!

love the blog and all you offer!

janice

[Shelly]

I don't own any Lockhart images yet. I never heard of Spellbinders before your blog. I am a card maker.

[Heather Mitchell]

I do not have any Lockhart stamps, nor am I familiar with Spellbinders (though I am VERY intrigued). I am definitely a card maker, but I LOVE taking pictures. One of these days I'm going to get back to scrapbooking... but I'm a little overwelmed by the amount of pictures that I HAVE, that to pick a place to start scrapbooking is hard for me!

[Sandi]

Let's see - the answers to your questions :)

1. Do you own any Lockhart Stamp Company images? NOT YET - but I plan to soon!
2. Have you ever heard of the Spellbinders dies before and have you used a Spellbinders die before? YES - I have a couple of Spellbinder's Dies. What great quality!!!
3. Do you create mostly cards or scrapbook pages? PROBABLY ABOUT EQUAL. I started scrapping and then got into cardmaking. I am trying to incorporate more stamping on my SB pages.

Can't wait to see the sale on the 13th and pre-order some dies!

[Rachel]

I don't own anything by Lockhart Stamp Company or Spellbinders. I've never even heard of Spellbinders before (but I'm watching with interest). I'm a digital scrapper so I use my paper stash and stamps for card-making now.

[Jana]

1. Nope...currently don't have any.
2. I had heard of the Wizard (it is more readily available here in Europe than Cuttlebug) but knew very little about it.
3. I do mostly cards (instant gratification!) but I do scrap as well, and have been trying to more.

Can't wait to see which Copic markers you'll have...I love what I've seen with them so far!

[Amy]

Do you own any Lockhart Stamp Company images?
Not Yet, but I hope to soon!
Have you ever heard of the Spellbinders dies before and have you used a Spellbinders die before?
I just recently learned of them and just got my first two sets: circles and squares.
Do you create mostly cards or scrapbook pages? Mostly cards, but I want to start scrapbooking as well.
YEAH, new Spellbinder dies! Although I JUST finally received my GIGA and MEGA circle and oval scalloped punches.

[A Lim]

1. Do you own any Lockhart Stamp Company images?
No - I am persuading my LSS that they should look into getting them in so people without the internet can get them
2. Have you ever heard of the Spellbinders dies before and have you used a Spellbinders die before?
I have heard about them on your blog but no, i havent used them before
3. Do you create mostly cards or scrapbook pages?
cards

[Karen]

1.Yes, I own several Lockhart stamps, but not as many as I would like!
2.I have heard of Spellbinders and their dies. In fact, I own one die, the feminine buckle, due to your website, Ellen.
3.I have made just one scrapbook as a gift so I create cards.

[Marci]

Yes, I have Lockhart stamps! LOVE the cupcake!

No, I had no heard of Spellbinders before your big news!

I do mostly cards!

Can't wait for the 13th!!
