What's New December 2025

Hello from too frigid New York! The temps have been cold and the wind chill makes it even worse. Thank goodness I was able to catch the little sweetie I introduced you to in my last post. This is Rusty on Thanksgiving Day.

My persistence paid off. Sitting with him outside morning and night (and some afternoons as well) got him to trust me just enough to come out in the open a few times. The day before Thanksgiving he was relaxed enough to let me leave him long enough to get the carrier and pick him up and place him in it. We are still getting him adjusted to being inside and having a younger kitten around. I almost did not make it to Thanksgiving dinner because Rusty decided to escape and go hide under the bed. We have also had a couple of vet visits for the routine checkup and shots and then another visit for gastrointestinal upset. Fortunately the prescription is relatively easy to give and we are seeing much improvement. Tomorrow we take both boys for their family planning surgeries.

As much as I could go on and on about my furry friends, I do have some Stampin' Up! news to share.

The details about this promotion are similar to past free shipping periods:
  • Free shipping is for three days only. Orders must be opened and closed from December 10–12. Online orders must be finalized by 11:59pm MT on December 12.
  • Free shipping automatically applies to your cart after the qualifying amount has been met, which is $75 (before tax).
  • Coupon codes and Stampin’ Rewards will lower your order’s retail amount. Orders must meet the qualifying amount to be eligible for free shipping.
  • The additional cost for expedited shipping is not covered by this promotion.
  • Prepaid 3-, 6-, and 12-month Paper Pumpkin subscriptions and month-to-month subscriptions do not qualify for free shipping. Refills, past kits, and add-ons do qualify toward free shipping, but you must be a subscriber to purchase. Subscriptions billed and shipped this month will be charged for the normal amount ($27.00 shipping included) + tax.
  • Please keep in mind that due to the high volume of orders and the Christmas season, the distribution center may fall behind on typical shipping timeframes. SU! will do all they can to return to regular service levels as quickly as possible. Any orders placed during this promotion are not guaranteed to arrive before or by December 25.
While this might not be the time to order gifts for family and friends, maybe you want to stock up for 2026 projects you have in mind. Also, once you spend $75 to qualify for free shipping, you might want to use some of your Stampin’ Rewards to get some extras, just be sure you do not apply too many  Stampin’ Rewards that you do not have the qualifying amount in your cart.

It is getting late and tomorrow is another day of work so I will close out the update before my head hits the keyboard.
