CLEARANCE RACK ... up to 80% off !!!

Stampin' Up! has opened up a Clearance Rack Online!

This is a permanent & consistent sale of retired & discontinued items up to 80% off!! These items are only available while supplies last & need to be ordered via my SU website/online store.

HERE'S THE LINK! Click "SHOP NOW", then "CLEARANCE RACK". Check it often, as the items available will be posted & removed based on inventory levels. You can also shop my Stampin' Up! website 24/7 by clicking on the permanent icon/photo in the upper right hand corner of my blog.

This is a great way to get some of those items you may wish you had more of, or that you missed the first time around! Right now, there are ribbons, DSP, rub ons, felt snowflakes, love notes, metal tins & chipboard.

INPUT NEEDED

WOW! I'm blown away by the positive response I've received over the Clipmarks format for iPICKS! ... 80+ comments! Thank you so much ... so glad you like this style! I'm convinced that I've pleased my readers, but after reading this comment, I want to make sure the original artists aren't dis-pleased with me ...

Okay so here is the one not so popular opinion. I see your picks as a way to drive traffic to the blog of the original creator. I love checking your site each week for the record. Isn't posting the pictures if you did not get permission copyright infringement? Not only that you have moved their creation to another site to host the image. I totally get why you all love it being this done this way but is it fair to the original creator?

If you are/were the original artist, would you feel indifferent about the Clipmarks format? I have alot of friends in stamping blogland, and don't want to lose any! Your thoughts?

iPICKS, Week 46

Welcome to iPICKS where I post a selection of my favorite Stampin' Up! cards and projects for the week. There's no formal rules or guidelines ... just inspiring projects that catch my eye, clever ideas, and exceptional designs. These are projects that inspire me and I hope they inspire you too!

I thought I'd try presenting iPICKS through Clipmarks this week. I'd love to hear what you think of the change!

Here are my iPICKS for Week 46 ...
