Tags Tags Tags Add On Tag Kit!

Now available: Add on a tag kit that makes 16 tags to any upcoming class for just $10!

The kit includes a variety of tag pieces, die cuts, ribbon and embellishments you can interchange to design as you go or recreate my designs.

If you are not able to attend in person, no problem! Purchase a kit and use your own stamps at home. As per SU! policy, I cannot provide pre-stamped kits.  If you do not have suitable stamps, of course you can purchase a set (my recommendation is Itty Bitty Christmas!) or I can complete the tags for you for a small additional charge.  

I hope to stamp with you soon 🥰

Happy Birthday Friend - Two Colour Combos!

Happy Saturday everyone!

The snow is falling here in Calgary so all the more reason to stay inside and craft.

I have an awesome video for you today - a fun card using the Praiseworthy Prose bundle, Dino Days bundle, and the Brick and Mortar 3D embossing folder.

I made this Purple Dino Card for a little girl who is in love with Barney!  I think it turned out awesome.  

My second colour scheme was to show you the same design can be both feminine and masculine if you just change your colours!

I Love Winter Sampler

I’ve been busy this week!

Lots of ornament orders and designing this framed piece. I love how it turned out!

In this Sampler, I feature the Ride With Me bundle, Tree Punch, Feels Like Frost Suite (Stamp set, dsp, ribbon, shimmery crystal effects), Hand-Lettered Prose dies, Snowfall Accents Puff Paint, Nature's Beauty and Playful Penguins stamp sets.  I’ve also used Shimmery White Embossing Powder, Night of Navy and Seaside Spray cardstock, Silver Foil and a few other pieces from other bundles.

I hope you love it 🥰

Thinking of You At Christmas Gift Box

Today’s project is a gift box!

The finished size is 3 1/4 x 3 1/2 x 1 1/4 so lots of small presents could fit inside, or a set of 3x3 tags and mini cards.

I used Coastal Cabana, Grey Granite and Whisper White. The stamps sets I chose were Winter Woods and Itty Bitty Christmas!

*I recreated this project from Angie Juda in the US - her version was Halloween themed.*

Please see my online store for which ones are offered.  With a sale like this, let's get creating!

https://www.stampinup.com/ecweb/default.aspx

Announcement: Holiday Catalogue is LIVE

Even though summer has come to an end, this is my favourite time of year.  September brings a lot of new things for everyone - adjusting back to the regular routine, back to school with new shoes and supplies, counting down until the next day off, ha!

What do I look forward to?  The holiday catalogue of course!

Our new catalogue goes live TODAY and I'm so excited to be able to share it with you.  You can view it at  http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/stampinstorytellers/catalogs

You're really going to love it.  There are a few products I'm overly excited for, so here they are:

1. Nature's Beauty stamp set, page 63

Stampin' Up! is donating $4 from each stamp set sold to Mental Health Organizations.  I am also going to match it so for every Nature's Beauty stamp set I sell, $8 will go towards Mental Health Organizations!  We get to stamp and help raise money for metal health awareness - amazing!

Nature's Beauty Online Class: $39.50  November 1 via Facebook Live

I will order your stamp set, prepare your card kits and you can either pick up from me or I can mail them to you.  Then we can gather via Facebook Live and stamp together.

2. Perfectly Plaid bundle (stamp set and pine tree punch), page 13

I will be using this set a lot during the next few months and also have two class dates so you can join me.

Friday November 8 at 6:30pm and Saturday November 9 at 9:00am

These two dates will be the same class just offered at two different times so more of you can attend. The projects I have designed showcase the stamp set using different techniques and specialty papers.

The options are:

$53.50 for the bundle and three cards

$15 for three cards

$25 for six cards (two each of three designs)

3. Christmas Countdown Project Kit, page 38

This advent calendar kit is so awesome!  I know this one will be a best seller so I am going to put an order in for this class as soon as I have a few people signed up because I already fear it will sell out.

The cost for this class is only retail plus s/h: $47.35.  I have chosen November 28 for this event but we can easily reschedule to another date if not all who are interested can attend that date.

I am offering the class portion for FREE and will supply all the necessary items for you to complete your kit, except adhesive.

If you are placing an order through my online store, please use the host code WGDE664G to receive a special gift from me.

Hello Beautiful

I have a fun, bright, cheery card for you today!

It features Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, Coastal Cabana, Poppy Parade and Dafodil Delight, along with the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set and coordinating Butterfly Duet punch.

Sometimes I get in a rut of using the same colours over and over, because let's face it, I know the colours work together.  So today, I reached outside my norm and created this card.

Happy mail is the best kind of mail!  

Last Chance for Rustic Retreat!

Last chance to join this class! The kits are ready, just need you to come enjoy a class!

Date to be determined based on who’s interested but to take place in the next ten days. 

3 cards and a bonus project for only $15! 

Please message me ASAP to claim your spot.
