July is my birth month and thus far, I took a road trip for a weekend in New Orleans with my sister, hanging out with my crafty friends, and some self-care...but there are soooo many awesome things still to come...take a look

Back to School Sales Tax Holiday

Certain US States offer a sales tax holiday for school supplies at different times, through July and August. Products that are eligible according to the statute include "items normally used by students in a standard classroom for educational purposes." Select Stampin' Up! products such as adhesives, paper snips, grid paper, Stampin' Write Markers, and Stampin' Blends are therefore included (although some products within those ranges are excluded due to per-item price restrictions). You can see which states are participating this year, the dates of any sales tax holidays, and which items are eligible in this document. Please note that the state statute may not apply to county, city, and special jurisdiction taxes.

Creative Inspiration with a Sketch

Here's this month's sketch:

And here's the project it inspired:

You'll find that classic Christmas colors are given a modern twist in the Iconic Celebrations Suite, a new addition to our Online Exclusive Collection. While this project is a great way to get started on your Christmas crafting, this suite isn't just for the festive season and contains imagery suitable for celebrations throughout the year.

The outline leaf image from the Iconic Imagery Photopolymer Stamp Set was stamped directly on a Basic White folded card base at the bottom left corner and to the right of the center using Mossy Meadow Classic Stampin' Ink. Cherry Cobbler Adhesive-Backed Berries were added to the stamped leaves. A rectangle of the Cherry Cobbler and Mossy Meadow plaid pattern from the Iconic Celebrations 6" x 6" (15.2 x 15.2 cm) Designer Series Paper was adhered to a Cherry Cobbler Cardstock mat. This was then added to center of the card front. A strip of the leaf and Cherry Cobbler patterned paper from the same stack was adhered across the width of the card front.

The "Celebrate" sentiment, also from the Iconic Imagery set, was stamped using Cherry Cobbler Classic Stampin' Ink on Basic White Cardstock and cut out using the largest label die from the coordinating Iconic Imagery Dies. "The Season", again from the same stamp set, was stamped on Mossy Meadow Cardstock using Mossy Meadow ink and the trimmed rectangle adhered to the die-cut white label underneath the stamped word. Adhered the completed sentiment element to the center of the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.
