Hello and happy release day! Thank you so much for joining in the fun, we’re so glad you’re here!
We’ve been working behind the scenes for months, getting our holiday collection designed, produced, and ready to stock on our virtual shelves! Today is the big day. All of the new products we’ve been showcasing on the blog over the last few days will be available in the shop at 10am EDT.
One thing I wanted to mention before we get to our blog hop winners…I left off one new product intro! Yesterday’s blog post was revised to include it, but I thought I’d share it here on today’s post as well, just in case lots of you missed it…
Tagged Elegance Die
We’ve had a lot of requests for a matching die for the Tagged Elegance stamp set which was released back in 2022. We’re happy to oblige, and the coordinating Tagged Elegance die will be added to the shop with all of the other new goodies this morning when the new release goes live. **Note: The Tagged Elegance die will be included in the full Fireside Holiday bundle, but the coordinating stamp set will not be included, as it was a previous release that many of you probably already have in your stash!

Give & Make – Mercy Chefs
Each year when we release our holiday collection, we choose a new set in which a portion of the sales goes to charity. In the past we have typically designated the funds for packing shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. This year, in light of the tragedy of hurricane Helene, we’ll be supporting a group called Mercy Chefs. I wasn’t familiar with this organization until their mobile kitchens pulled into our small town this summer after it was devastated by flooding. They fed our community (and the many clean-up volunteers) hot, home-cooked meals, twice a day for a week plus. They were truly a blessing to our community. Visit Mercy Chefs website to learn more about them and their mission.
Mercy Chefs is currently deploying to Newberry, FL and Asheville, NC to supply meals for these communities which have been devastated by Helene. We’d love to support Mercy Chefs’ food supply efforts by donating 15% of the sales of The Christmas Story stamp set and Christmas Story die.
And finally, if you need a little something to keep you busy until the new products go live at 10am EDT, grab a cup of something warm and peruse the Lookbooks…
Thank you so much for joining us for all the release fun this week! We will be back to sharing some projects from the team here on the blog next week!
