Holy Cow, She's Back!

What a WEEK!  I went online last week to look at Studio-Sara.com (I need to update the banner and buttons) and *ZAP!*  it was gone.  As in *no website*.  If you typed www.studio-sara.com into your address bar, you were given a search for studio-related websites.  WHAT?!  Talk about a total freak-out...

To make a long story short, I ended up calling Tech Support (after spending hours literally going around and around in circles, shaking my fist at my poor, defenseless and BLAMELESS computer).  I spoke with three lovely people (Nel, Andrew and Daniel) who all deserve gold stars, but who were unable to help.  Since it was a problem bigger than the phone, we became email pen pals.

In a middle-of-the-night Aha! Moment last night, I thought I'd check back through my Subscriptions and Stampin' Up! folders in my email account.  I was taught early in my teaching career to create a Subscriptions folder in my account for all of those emails which contain user names, etc, when I create a new account.  For those with sensitive passwords, they're in a different, more secure location (but still accessible).  Sadly, there was no email from Tech Support in my Subscriptions, but I did find one in my Stampin' Up! email folder with the link that has since saved my website and probably my sanity.

So -- I'm back.  I hope you weren't too inconvenienced by my absence!  In the scant week I was off-line, here's what you missed:

• {Here} is an updated Retiring Accessories List.  Remember, these items are available only as long as the supply lasts, so if there's something you'll miss, order it now.  This list is updated each weekday at 4:00 PM.  If you've got your eye on Retiring Stamps, {here} is that link and you've got until June 3 to place that order.

• Need to be placed on my New Catty Mailing List?  Expect to receive yours by May 31 if you're already on there.  Not yet on?  Email me (the button is on the left side of this page).

• Have a big order to place?  If you finalize it by May 30, all orders of $350+ in merchandise qualify for an extra $30 in free stuff!  I know the month ends on May 31, but this special offer lasts until the 30th.

• Speaking of May 31, that's the deadline to order from the Spring Catalog, too, so deadlines are upon us.  The link to the Spring Catalog is up on the right.

Thank you for your patience and continued visits!  I'm looking forward to posting some of the latest projects I've been working on.  I've just received my latest My Paper Pumpkin delivery!  In addition,
May and June are loaded with men's birthdays for our family (and Father's Day), so I'll be showing quite a few men-related projects.  Hope your week gets off to a great start!
