Hello

I had a wonderful Mother's Day this past Sunday.  Two of my daughters and four of my grandkids came over for dinner. ​But when the timer went off an hour later and I went to pull dinner out of the oven, it wasn't even hot!!! Oops! Somehow, I accidentally turned off the oven when I turned on the timer! Then I tried to cook dinner in the microwave, but the microwave overheated and quit working! My husband still can't figure out how to get the microwave working again. So, we had to buy a new one. 

I wanted to share a navigation change to my online store that should help make your shopping experience easier.  First make sure it says Shopping with Tammy Williams at the top of the page. Then under the Menu, select Shop By, then select Ways to Craft, then click the arrow and you will see three different categories—Step-By-Step, Quick & Easy Options, and Creativity Your Way. These three categories correspond to the three sections in the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalog layout.  

Step-by-Step will take you to the Kits Collection.  The Quick & Easy Options are where the Ephemera Packs and the Mix and Match Cards and Envelopes can be found. These are brand new card making options. The Creativity Your Way section is where the suites, bundles and single stamp sets reside.  

If you prefer to shop by product category, you still can. That navigation hasn’t changed. Instead, they’ve added a new route to consider that should make finding favorites even easier. 

I encourage you to watch my YouTube video called "10 Pages You Want To Pay Attention To" for a walkthrough explaining the new catalog layout. The video points out all the unique pages to pay attention to in the catalog because there are lots of new features! The format is unlike previous catalogs and there is so much inside. The annual catalog is more like an idea book with samples, a technique book, and a card design book that helps you (the crafter) get what you need in a more logical flow. I highly recommend watching the video. It is a little long, but it has tons of information that will help you better understand how to use the new annual catalog. 

Don't have a catalog yet? I can help. If you live in the United States and need a FREE copy of the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalog, just email me back your address. Also, if you are not comfortable shopping online let me know and I can help with that. 

On pages 16 and 17 in the new catalog there is a list of Top 10 Crafting Essentials. But I would like to add one more essential item to that list. Do you have a Silicone Craft Sheet yet?  I created a video demonstrating 7 different uses for the Silicone Craft Sheet. You can catch the video by clicking here. 

If you ever have any questions, or have something you want to see on my videos or Facebook business page, please let me know. I am here as your Creativity Coach! Text me, call or email me. 

Thanks for taking time to read my newsletter.  Please let your fellow crafters know about me and ask them to sign up for my newsletter as well. I would really appreciate it if you could help me extend my reach to other crafters. 

Have a "craft-tastic" day! 

God Bless,

-Tammy
