BLENDABILITIES UPDATE:  There have been continued quality issues with the Blendabilities Markers product line.  Due to the nature of the defect (see below), Stampin’ Up! has concluded that difficulties, dissatisfaction, and product returns will only become more widespread. The manufacturer is unable to correct the problem in a manner that Stampin’ Up! is certain would meet their high quality standards and provide them with a stable, long-term solution. Therefore, after a great deal of deliberation and in order to prevent further disappointment, the Blendabilities product line has been discontinued.

BLENDABILITIES Q & A

Q: Will the Tuxedo Black Memento Pad (item #132708) and the Tuxedo Black Memento Pad Refill (item #133456) still be available for purchase?
A: Yes. These items will continue to be available for purchase.  The Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad is my FAVORITE every day black ink.  So happy!

Q: What are the quality problems with this product?
A: When the tip is welded to the barrel, the welding process can leave microscopic (invisible) holes in the marker tip. This leads to accelerated evaporation of the alcohol in the ink.

Q: Are all Blendabilities markers defective?
A: No. Most Blendabilities markers work as intended and I personally haven’t experienced the drying issue but am aware of it from customers and fellow demonstrators.

Q:  What if I have Blendabilities markers that are defective?  If you ordered them through me, please email me for assistance.  If not, please contact the demonstrator you ordered them through.

Until my next post. . . . . . .  .

Sweet Flourish – Stampin’ Up! Card

DSC_0016a

Hello there,

Whew! It finally warmed up to 50 degrees yesterday and melted the last of the snow.  I worked in the chicken coop getting some much needed cleaning done after the girls were cooped up for a week.  While I cleaned, the girls got to peck around the yard.  They were some happy chickens.

I’m excited about the warmer weather but I did notice the Robins weren’t back yet.  I wonder if they know the cold Winter weather is not over yet, hmmm.  I better hold off on getting my gardening rolling.

Since birds of all kinds were on my mind I decided to do a serene bird card today.  This project has layering of color, texture and images.  I hope you like it.

You can find the complete supply list below for today’s project and also how to the get the complete tutorial for this project free or by purchase below.
