PLEASE HELP ME CLEAN OUT INVENTORY!!   Glenda's Creative Place is having a HUGE SALE on all in-stock Spellbinders, JustRite Stamps, some Ranger & other miscellaneous items--up to 40% off MSRP on many items. We are literally bursting at the seams & in order to be able to bring in any NEW inventory from CHA next week, we're going to have to clear out a lot of existing inventory!! I have a LOT of Spellbinders & Just Rite in stock--if you have some in mind, now is the time!! Email me at glendascreativeplace@yahoo.com & give me your list.  First come, first serve!!   I also have many of the LIMITED EDITIONS from the last Spellbinders releases(including many holiday sets!) & the same goes for JustRite--many sets from previous releases they are no longer going to have once they're completely sold out of their inventory!!!  I also have many other very popular sets--lots of Labels dies, many Pendants, Borderabilities, (even several Grand 12...

OK, here we go again.

Thanks. It is MORE IMPORTANT than EVER to pre-order these dies, to avoid being shut out, if Spellbinders sells out this new group too, as they've just done with the initial rollout of the 16 new dies (Pendants & Borderabilitie...

Plus, I've added some bundles for the different Crafter's Companion products that I carry!!! I was soooo excited when the UPS man arrived with my shipment of the new large Rock-A-Blocks last evening!!! You should have seen me rip open that shipping box!! And boy, oh boy, did I EVER give them a serious work-out last night. I was in a stamping frenzy!!! We have needed these additional sizes of Rock-A-Blocks (one block is 4 1/2" x 7", and the other block is 2" x 7") sooooo badly!!!! And they work just as fabulously as the original set---they are just sooooo easy & the results from both sets are absolutely outstanding!!! No more ink splotches from ink on your block transferring onto your paper!! No more unevenly stamped images !!! No more ruined projects!!! WooHoo!!!! (Can you tell I'm excited??? I feel li...

I just LOVE give-aways, don't you?? For those of you who might not be familiar, starting in April, I'm holding a monthly give-away among just my Blog Followers.

And you just never ever know what the prizes might be--one month could be a really big give-away, another month might be a bit more low key, but, just know that there will ALWAYS be a give-away!!! And in this economy, every little bit helps, right??? Sooooo, if you're NOT signed up as a Blog Follower of mine, hurry up & do so!!!! To sign up, scroll down the right side of my blog until yo...

Hi all!!! Yeaaaahh --NEW videos are being uploaded--finally!!! Ohhhh , wow, have I been a busy gal. So, I've gotten behind on my (self-imposed!) video schedules. But, I'm finally getting some of the videos I actually made more than a month ago edited and uploaded for you. Most of these are part of a new series of videos that I'm doing called: "Glenda's Hints & How- Tos " (aka GHHT ) . These will be videos of a much SHORTER duration than most of my more detailed tutorials. These videos are simply little snippets, little nuggets of information that I've learned and found out along the way that have helped me get my craft projects done more easily & quickly. My hope is that these new GHHT videos will contain some information that will also be helpful to you. If so, please let me know by posting your comments here & also by rating the videos within the YouTube.com site itself. For those of you that want to be sure to be notified of any new posts ...

Well, it’s been a while since I’ve posted, but, let me tell you, I have been a very BUSY gal. First, let me tell you that my Blog Candy Give-Away spreadsheet has finally been completed & after a LOT of research, a lot of generous help from sooooo many people out there & a LOT of sleepless nights, it is working exactly how I’d hoped it would for this first Blog Candy contest of mine. All your entries & the information you gave me have been checked, double checked, triple checked & then checked again over & over to make sure everything was entered correctly. And BTW, it was checked not only by me, but also by my new friend & amazing Excel goddess, Stacy S., aka StackyScraps from the Cricut MB, who used to be an auditor, so you KNOW she checked it all very thoroughly, which is exactly what I wanted her to do!!! FYI, Stacy is also the person who deserves the credit for finally fixing up my spreadsheet, for figuring out the correct formulas & almost everything el...

Hi All!! First, right off the bat, let me profusely apologize for being late with my Blog Candy Give-Away (which from now on, will be abbreviated to: BCGA) & I want to say that it is TOTALLY my own fault!!! It's due to the fact that I really thought I remembered much more about Excel spreadsheets (especially the part that involves formulas!!! EEEKKKK!!!) than it turned out that I actually did!!! After not having to use Excel for about eleven years, I guess I hadn't quite retained the knowledge I thought I would have. Let me explain: As you were all voting for my BCGA & many were signing up to be Followers in order to get the multiple votes (thank you soooo much!!!), I was trying to keep up by entering every one's info into an Excel spreadsheet. The reason I was using a spreadsheet is because I wanted Excel to do all the math for me (especially after it turned out there were so many more entries than I'd ever dared to hope for, which is a complete JOY to me!!!). ...

OK, the end is near!!!! (Oh nooooooo, not "THAT end”!!!!) No, the end I’m speaking of is the end of my BLOG CANDY Give-Away!!! This weekend is the LAST CHANCE YOU’LL HAVE to vote for which Tutorial you most want to have me do for you, & YOUR VOTES are WHAT enter YOU into MY BLOG CANDY Give-Away!!! As an added incentive, I’m going to reveal a little hint about what the Grand Prize Winner will receive. The GRAND PRIZE Winner will receive a really cool CRICUT Cartridge !!! WooHoo!!!!!! I've put together a partial list of possible tutorials I’m thinking of doing for you here on my blog & what I want you to do is to vote for your TOP 3 (and BTW, if there's something else that I don't have listed here that you'd like to see, feel free to substitute your suggestion for mine!!). To vote, just go to the COMMENTS section at the end of this thread & post a COMMENT !!! That will automatically enter you in my BLOG CANDY Give-Away. And BTW, you may ENTER MORE THAN O...

(This blog thread is to summarize and hopefully, make it easier for all of you to enter here to win my BLOG CANDY Give-Away.) Ohhhh, thank GOODNESS--now, finally: BACK TO CRAFTING!!! I've been soooo busy with all the orders for the Crafter's Companion products ( thank you!!! ) over the past week, I haven't been able to craft ANYTHING worthwhile. But I've been musing & thinking about what type of tutorials/projects I wanted to start with here on my blog (BESIDES the obvious, which are the Ultimate Crafter's Companion and the Rock-A-Blocks!!!), & of course, because I am the original "Gadget Queen" , who loves ALL gadgets & tools, most the things that popped into my mind were about different crafting "tools". Several of the ones ones that came to mind were those I think many of us bought with great enthusiasm when they were first released, but now, may not be getting as much use as they could be, or they may actually be gathering dust!!...

Well, once again, first I want to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU , because the orders are STILL coming in for both the Ultimate Crafter's Companion & the Rock-A-Blocks!!! I am truly humbled!!! I've placed yet ANOTHER re-order with the manufacturer & am waiting for my re-orders to arrive!!! In the meantime, in order to simplify the process for EVERYONE, I've added some "BUY NOW Buttons" from PayPal, which will simplify the process for ALL of us!!! To recap, I absolutely fell in LOVE with these 2 products when I saw them at CHA, & because I really believed in them, decided to place orders for both of them. That original quantity was all I ever intended to deal with. Well, the quantity I originally ordered from the manufacturer were just blown out the doors from the moment I offered them on my blog. Then, because soooo many people still wanted them, I went ahead & placed re-orders for both products & am now waiting for my shipments to arrive...

Well, another day, another update on the products that I've been offering here on my blog under this post . The orders are still coming in (thank you very much!!!), so if you're still interested, I have placed "re-orders" with the manufacturer for both products. All orders, including the originals, are being filled & processed in the chronological order that they were received in my email at www.glendascreativeplace.blogspot.com , (and then of course upon receipt of your payment from PayPal ). **** NEW INFO*** : I've now included the BUY NOW Buttons in the post below , so this is NOW the correct way to order these products from me--please, going forward, do NOT send your orders to my email!**** Even after placing my re-orders, there is still a limited amount of product available , so be sure to let me know ASAP if you want to order & reserve either the Ultimate Crafter's Companion or the amazing Rock-A-Blocks. (See my earlier post & videos fo...

WOW, WOW, THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!! I want to update the status of the products I have in stock. I've been jam-packed with order requests for both the Rock-A-Blocks(RAB) plus the Ultimate Crafter's Companion (UCC). The orders are coming from here on my BLOG , plus from the Cricut MB, as well as folks who have just found me thru my videos on You Tube. (Please see the article here below to see the videos as well as all the pricing & ordering information!!) So, obviously my original quantities of both products are long gone, however, I've re-ordered both, so, if anyone else is interested, PLEASE click the BUY NOW Buttons below in this post . Upon receipt of your PayPal payment, your pruduct will be reserved for you (as many of you have already found out, these products keep selling out everywhere they've been featured!!) If you need to send me an email for any other reason, please send to to: my email at www.glendascreativeplace.blogspot.com . (But you do NOT need...

Hi all!!! Hoping all of you had a lovely Valentine's Day weekend!! I thought I'd come in here & add some more CHA videos I finally got uploaded. Plus, I went into my last post from Feb 13th to edit it in order to add one more video I'd done the day B-4 from the Crafter's Companion folks. In that video, a couple of my other Cricut Message Boards friends (Nilda & TerriKrafts) were introduced to these products & one of the greatest advertisements for the Rock-A-Block product occurred out of a simple stamper's mishap (oh yaaaaa, we've ALL had THAT happen!!)!! BUT , what should have ended in disaster ends instead in a perfectly stamped image. Go & see what I'm talking about in my last post !!! (Where you can also find all the details about how to order these products!!!) So what I'm uploading today are: 1) A video tour of the amazing Basic Grey booth (which was requested by Okie, who is yet another Cricut Message Board member & friend)-...

Wow!! Do you stamp, or do you want to? Do you want to be a faster card-maker, or bump up the appearance of your cards a notch or two?? Well, no matter if you're a seasoned stamper or card-maker, or someone who really wants to try it, but might be fearful because they're worried if anything goes wrong, it will mess up their project. Are you an experienced card-maker or maybe you want to learn how to start making cards, or just somewhere in between?? Well, I've found the answer to help you with both of these issues. So, let's talk about stamping first. Over-inking (which means getting the ink on the surface of your block, NOT just on your stamp!!) is the main cause for messing up any stamping. Anyone who has ever stamped anything has had this unfortunate occurrence, where you end up w/ink blotches on your good paper--and it's HEART-BREAKING!!! FINALLY, someone has come up with a solution for this. The company is Crafter's Companion and the product is their Rock-A...
