Blendability News and Weekly Deals - March 10, 2015

Blendability News

A number of you have experienced quality issues with the Blendabilities product line, which has resulted in frustration for  you. Due to the nature of the defect, we have concluded that difficulties, dissatisfaction, and product returns will only become more widespread. The manufacturer is unable to correct the problem in a manner that we are certain would meet our high quality standards and provide us 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.

I really am sad about this but glad that Stampin' Up! stood up for quality and I really hope they do find another supplier that has a better quality.  If you have any question please e-mail me at marysstamping@gmail.com

There's A Card Thursday - November 27, 2014 - Blendabilities Marbling Card

I hope you are all having a great Thanksgiving.  I am so thankful for a lot of things - my family, my faith and my friends. I just would like to take a few seconds to be thankful for everything I have and had.

Today on There's A Card Thursday I promised to use the Blendability Marbling Technique so I have done that.  I had to make a sympathy card one of my Uncles died and I need to send them a card.  When I was growing up we would spend summers with them.  My cousins and I would play on their farm and work in the fields, I loved my time spent with them.  I will be sad not being able to visit him and wish I could go back for the services but they are Sunday and the flights this week are really expensive.  So I will think happy thoughts of my time with him.

For Uncle Sonny
