Faithful Friday Freebies - #4 FINAL! (+25% Off & Last Chance for $150+ FREE!)

As my own personal spinoff from Stampin' Up!'s Thank You Thursdays (one day sales) in October, I created my own thank you offer--Faithful Friday Freebies. You'll find a list of a few things you'll need to do to enter, under the picture, then I'll pick a random winner from those of you who've made the effort to let me know you're interested :-) Instead of a 24-hour period like Thank You Thursdays, I'm going to make this opportunity available ALL WEEKEND! Here's what you could win in return for your efforts from Friday, October 25th from 12:00am to Sunday, October 27th at 11:59pm MT:

FREEBIES: Paper supplies to make 6 Thank You Cards!

I'll stamp everything for you, but let you assemble the leafy parts onto the card yourself. That way you can modify the card as creativity strikes you! Love that greeting? If so, you might want to grab the Oh, Hello Stamp Set yourself, during the

25% OFF 25 STAMPS special through October 28th!

What You Need To Do:
1) LIKE my Facebook Page,
2) FOLLOW at least one of my Pinterest Boards,

Your comment might look like this: "This is Kimberley M. and my email is procrastistamper at gmail dot com. I have already LIKED your FB page, I'm following ALL your Pinterest Boards, I pinned your 10/24/13 Divine™ Jack-o-Lantern Purse Favor Video Tutorial to my Pinterest Halloween board, and I am subscribed to your blog by email."

Remember to leave your comment during the appropriate time frame, and include all of the requested info in your comment (and make sure you've done what you've claimed in your comment) or you will be disqualified...and the thought of that makes me so sad!!! And, I'm sorry if this part makes you sad, but these freebies will only be snail mailed to addresses in the US, or APO/FPO. One Faithful Friday Freebie per person during the month, please. I will close & hide the comments after I have picked the winner, so your info won't be hanging out on this blog post forever. Best of luck to you all!!!

Late Night Stampers (LNS) 2013 Fall Treasure Hunt

I think this is the third Late Night Stampers (LNS) Treasure Hunt I have participated in. For those of you who are new to this, there is a list of participating blogs you will find at the end of this post, below my signature block. You basically collect a clue from at least 50 of the blogs, and turn in your answers to enter. The prize is FREE STAMPIN' UP! PRODUCT!!! The Grand Prize for a US winner is $150+ (as of 9/30/13), and I am also offering my own personal Procrastistamper Blog Candy Contest--see below for more details. Now, the Treasure Hunt post may not be the first post you see on a Participating Blog--that's why it's called a "hunt" ;-) But, you will know you have found the right post on the participating blog when you see this picture:

Once you've found that LNS 2013 Fall Treasure Hunt picture, you'll look a little further in the blog post to find the clue. Jot down the clue, and the blog it came from, and then go find the next one. Easy, right? One caveat: because our LNS 2013 Fall Treasure Hunt has just started, we don't quite have 50 participating blogs yet. No worries, our besties will join us soon. In the meantime, you may want to Subscribe to my Blog by Email to make sure you don't miss any notifications when new blogs are added!

MY CLUE IS: THINLITS.  I REPEAT, MY CLUE IS: THINLITS...!

Stampin' Up! currently offers three Thinlits products: the Label Card Thinlits, the Circle Card Thinlits, and the Expressions Thinlits. You'll want to stay tuned to my blog to see all the fun Thinlits sample cards and projects I have planned for you, throughout the LNS 2013 Fall Treasure Hunt. If you Subscribe to my Blog to get email updates, you won't miss any of them!

4) One comment per email address/person, please only enter if your mailing address to receive the winning Blog Candy is in the United States (or APO/FPO address). If you are in another country, I am happy to gift your winning Blog Candy to a US address on your behalf :-)
5) Comments are moderated, they may take a short while to show up. Please leave your comment once, and check back to ensure it is posted. If it has not posted within 24 hours, it was likely deleted because it did not meet the requirements outlined in these rules. Please try again :-)

Did You Know There's a $150 Treasure Hunt on my Blog?

Yep, there sure is...and you could WIN $150 IN STAMPIN' UP! PRODUCT OF YOUR CHOICE! You must have your entry to me by 11:59pm MT May 12th (that's Mother's Day). You'll need to do a little digging for the clue. Luckily for you, you don't have to get your hands dirty, because in the right sidebar of my blog, I have a Google "Site Search". The contest is called the Late Night Stampers Spring 2013 Treasure Hunt, and that's all the hints you should need! You'll know you've found the right post when you see a picture that says MY CLUE, and at the end of the post, there is a picture of the Treasure Hunt Graphic showing a Stampin' Up! box with a yellow flowered background. There are (as of today) 55 blogs listed that you can visit (including mine)!

So, once you find that post, you should read all the rules there. But let me share a Secret Tip for More Chances to Win with you...you actually get an entry for every blog you turn your Treasure Hunt list in to. There are 55 blogs as of right now, that means you could have at least 55 entries. But, you MUST do the work (see the rules), and you get ONE entry for each list you email to each individual participating blog owner :-) Drawing will be held on May 15th, and the winner will be contacted by email. Good Luck!!!

FYI: I made that cool map with My Digital Studio, using the World Traveler Digital Download, and the FREE Label This Digital Download!

BONUS BOOTY (blog candy): Everyone who turns in their entry to me, who includes the greeting "AHOY, MATEY" will be placed in a drawing to win a
FREE STAMP SET!
(those who've sent me their entry prior to this blog post are automatically included)

A Short Pause to Ink Up!

Just a quick departure from our regularly scheduled programming, to bring you some information about Stampin' Up! Classic Stampin' Pads. Stampin' Up! came up with something new for the 2012-2013 Annual Catalog, called the Firm Foam Stampin' Pad. This ink pad features Stampin' Up! Classic ink, in a full-sized firm foam pad...as opposed to the old linen covered felt pads.

MY CLUE - Classic Stampin' Pad

The new Firm Foam Classic Stampin' Pads Provide better ink coverage for your stamps, and only require a light-tap to produce flawless images! The new Classic Stampin' Pads create wonderfully solid images, as the Firm Foam releases more ink onto your rubber stamp than the felt pads. When using the Firm Foam pad, your stamp will get an even, solid covering of ink that you may not have been able to achieve with the felt pads. If you are using the ink pad frequently you may need to re-ink your Firm Foam pad more often, but it does take less to reink it than a felt pad.

Each full-size ink pad features a crisply printed, glossy label on the top of the pad that is easier to read and that will not fade or chip off! There are labels for four languages (English, Spanish, French, and German)--just choose your language, peel it off the back, and add it to the front of the pad for easy identification! The new Firm Foam Classic Stampin' Pads use the same patented flip-top case design that stores the inking surface upside down, so the pad surface stays moist, and they are available in all colors, including our exclusive In Colors!

Five ink colors have undergone formula changes to improve functionality and color stability with the new firm foam pads. These colors are: Basic Black, Basic Gray, Marina Mist, Perfect Plum, and Tempting Turquoise. All five colors of the reformulated inks have been fully tested and approved. While using the new ink formula in the old Classic Stampin' Pads is fine, do not use the old ink formula for these five colors in the new firm foam pads. Any refills purchased after April 30, 2012, will contain the new formulated ink.

If you are participating in the Late Night Stampers Spring 2013 Treasure Hunt, my clue is: Classic Stampin' Pads. Anyone can participate, and you can win your choice of over $150 worth of Stampin' Up! product...so go ahead and check out the instructions and blog list below my signature block :-)
