Holiday Shipping Volumes: An Update
This year has had its hurdles but we remain committed to keeping your crafty juices flowing!
Retailers saw record setting growth in their online sales in 2020 and the increase in holiday volume has pushed carriers past their breaking point. Covid-19 has exacerbated this problem as carriers scramble to maintain a full and healthy workforce. Shipping delays are commonplace both here in the USA and abroad. Our shipping partners are no exception. With the increased rate of online orders needing to be shipped to their forever homes, our carriers are being inundated with packages to deliver and this has resulted in transit delays and delayed visibility by way of online tracking.
Our warehouse itself is not experiencing any delays and our pick, pack and ship operation is currently on schedule. Rest assured, we are doing everything we can on our end to ensure your orders arrive in a timely manner. We apologize for any inconvenience you may experience while waiting for the arrival of your crafty goodies. Thank you for your patience and loyalty.
Happy Holidays from the Simon Says Stamp Family!

Crafty with Caly: You Have My Heart
Hi all! Please join me in welcoming back special guest Caly Person in our Crafty with Caly bi-monthly blog series! Keep reading and enjoy!
Hello Friends! It’s Caly with you today sharing a card from the Love You release! Today’s card features the You Have My Heart set and is perfect for any love-related occasion or even a “just because” card for someone you simply adore!
I stamped and colored my card with Copic markers.

Pinks: RV11, R83, R85
Reds: R43, R46, R59
You can check out my process in the video!
WATCH THE VIDEO:
Before creating my background, I embossed my sentiment over Fog cardstock. Then I ink-blended with Distress Oxide inks. One of my favorite color combinations are Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick, and Seedless Preserves! I love to ink-blend over colored cardstock as it gives a new hue to the colors.
Don’t you love the deckle edge? The new Tim Holtz Deckle Torn Edge Trimmer makes it so easy to create a decorative border without dies. To finish my card, I embellished with Nuvo Drops in Simple White.
I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by! ~Caly
