Christmas Card Classes or Kits!

 

Why not get a jump on getting some of your holiday stuff done and out of the way so you can have a more relaxing time.  I am offering two types of Christmas Card Classes or Kits this year.  I am really excited and I think both can appeal to any one. 

1.  YOU CHOOSE!  You pick which card you would like to make and how many.  Just let me know the letter(s) you want and how many of each one.  They are $1.50 per card.  If you would like it as a kit.  Add $5 to the price for me to stamp and cut your pieces.  If I need to mail it to you, then you will also need to pay for postage.  I don't think it will be very expensive. 

2.  SIMPLY SCRAPPIN'  This one is a kit using SU Merry Moments Simply Scrappin kit on pg 9 of the Holiday Catalog.  I provide paper and envelopes to make 24 cards.  You can copy the samples I have or come up with your own ideas.  You will end up with enough to make more than 24 cards!  The cost for this is $30.

DATE:  Saturday, November 10, 2012

TIME:  9-12

WHERE:  My House

Please let me know ASAP if you are interested in coming to the class as I need to order in supplies to have them ready.  If I can know by Sunday that would be very helpful.  You will also need to prepay.  If I do not have payment I will not be able to get supplies ready for you.

If you are interested in a Kit then I can work with your time frame as long as I either have enough supplies on hand or allow for me to order them in and get them out to you.

Raining Flowers Birthday Card

This card is very bright and cheery.  I love this Raining Flowers Stamp Set.  It is so much fun to work with and has so much potential.  I used Rich Razzleberry for the card and then cut out the top note with Pumpkin Pie cardstock.  I stamped the saying from the Bring On the Cake stamp set in Early Espresso.  The colors I used for the flowers are Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Daffodil Delight.  Add a little Daffodil Delight in ribbon and a Brights button and this is what you get!  To cheer up someone's day click here to order the supplies you might need.

Button Thank You

I love all the different styles of buttons used on this card.  Some are embossed while others are stamped and one is even real.  I created my own square scalloped background to place them using the Adorning Accents Edgelits.  It took a little patience to figure out how to do all four sides but I love how it turned out and it really wasn't that difficult to do.  To finish it off I used the Itty Bitty Banner stamp set and the coordinating Bitty Banner framelit for the saying popped up with dimensionals.  To order any of the supplies used click here to start shopping now.

With Sympathy

This was a fun card to make using Papillon Potpourri stamp set and the Elegant Butterfly punch.  I also used the 1 3/4" scallop circle punch and cut them in half.  For the antennae I cut thin slivers of Basic Black cardstock.  To add a little texture I used the Elegant Bouquet embossing folder.  The color used was Tangerine Tango.  To order any of these supplies click here to begin shopping now. 

July is a Reason to Smile

Card Kit/Stamp A Stack

Reason To Smile

 There are plenty of reasons to smile in July with the Reason to Smile set--only $5 when you spend $50.  This exclusive set is only available during the month of July!  (Only one set per customer)

In honor of this set I have 3 cards I am using for a Card Kit/Stamp a Stack all using the Reason to Smile stamp set.  Whether you can come to my Stamp a Stack or you order a card kit, you will get a total of 9 cards, 3 of each one.

Don't miss out on either having some handmade cards on hand or a fun stamp set!  Check out the details below.

Stamp A Stack
When: Saturday, July 28th at 10 a.m.
Where:  My house
RSVP:  ASAP but no later than Tuesday, July 24th
Cost:  $12 or $15 with envelopes
PLEASE BRING your own adhesive and scissors

Card Kit
$17 or $20 with envelopes, plus $3 for mailing, if needed.
The kit will have everything cut and stamped and all ready for assembly.  I will provide a picture of each card.  The only thing you will need is dimensionals or mini glue dots as needed as these are hard to mail without them getting stuck to everything else.  Please email if you are interested.

Retiring Items Stamp A Stack

We made these three cards at our last stamp a stack in honor of retiring accessories.  I am going to miss the 5 petal flower punch, the lace ribbon border punch and the blossom bouquet triple layer punch.  Yes I did get a little carried away with doing them all in white but don't they look pretty?  They were a lot of fun to make too.  I think the colors really pop!  Don't forget there are only a few days left to get those last few things in the catalog before they retire.  Stamp sets will be available until the end of the month and accessories are only available while supplies last.  Have a great day!

Retiring Accessories

The Retired Accessories list is now available.  Click here to see the pdf of what is retiring.  Since Stampin' Up out sources their accessories and only make their own stamps, the accessories are only available as the supply lasts.  So if there is something you want, you should purchase it ASAP.

Because of this Lisa has offered to do a book party for those who might want to order things.  Some things to think about is the 2010-2012 In Colors.  They will no longer be available so if you like the paper or haven't gotten your reinkers for your in pads, you will need to do so.  Those colors are Peach Parfait, Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz, Concord Crush and Blushing Bride.

If you want to order on Lisa's book party, please email or call me with what you want.  I will place the order by 7:00 a.m. on Thursday, April 26th.

It is Time to Say Goodbye

It is always hard to say goodbye to those things we have loved and used. We will be losing some stamp sets some of which have been here since I have started. But it is that time of year again and Stampin' Up has always been good to bring in new and exciting things. I have a link to the Retired List in pdf format. Take some time to go through it and if there are some which you have not gotten but can't bear to see go, then give me a call so we can get them ordered before Thursday, May 31st, 2012. Or go to my website and click on "Shop Now" purchase them.

Scrapbook Page Challenge

This page I did in MDS. I participate in a couple scrapbook challenges. This page actually will work for two different ones, Garnet #10 with Kristy Lee's sketch for Scrapbookbook Steals and also for the challenge Erica Bass did for The Paper Girls Challenge Blog using photo strips for the layout. What was nice about using MDS is I was able to add in elements and pictures I did not have printed and in actual paper products. I used a combination of things from Stampin' Up and other items I had in my digital folder. I really like how this page turned out. Right now you can try MDS for 30 days and see if it is something you would like to purchase. If you are interested, don't hesitate to give a call.
