Stamping at the Calgary office

This week I had the opportunity to stamp at the Calgary Stampin UP office.  Each month the office sends out handmade anniversary cards and welcome cards to the new recruits.  After creating over 650 cards in three days I will NEVER complain about having to cut for 20 customers!  NEVER!

I was such a thrilling experience to design and create these cards for fellow demonstrators.  I can't share the design with you as it's secret until demonstrators receive them this month but I can share with you this little facebook video I did today.

I made this at the end of our third day of creating so we are mostly stuffing and addressing the cards but each card is handmade and personally signed by Dale, the Stampin UP Canada manager.

Such an awesome experience to be a part of this amazing company!

Happy long weekend!

Cheers, 
K

Lift me up Scrapbook page

I ended last week with my Scrapbook club and we created this.

 I love this club as everyone takes the page layout and makes it there own. I didn't take pics of everyone's layout but there were layouts with Maui photos as well as hiking pics.

Are you interested in scrapbooking? Our next club is on March 10th and if you are free I'd love to have you join us to try it out!

Here are some previous club layouts.


 

Contact me if you are interested.

Cheers,

** New class - Framed Art Succulents

I'm super excited to share this project with you and say FINALLY it's finished and I have a class date!

You do NOT want to miss out on this class. Think of this as a pampering for YOU or a fun handmade Mother's day gift! 

The finished size is an 11x14 shadow box frame that is not included in the price of the class. You will need to purchase this ahead of the class date. 


 The photos don't really do it justice as you can't see the details in the lettering or the Wink of Stella on the dragonfly.

Here are a few closeups.










 Now the class details!

Date - Sun, March 12
Time - 1-4pm
Cost - Option #1 - $28 for the materials and class to create the piece
Frame is not included but will need to be purchased prior to the class date.

Option #2 - Purchase the Oh So Succulent bundle, select a FREE Sale A Bration item and the class for just $10.

Think of other sayings that could be included - 

Home Sweet Home
Family Love Faith
Live The Moment
Seize The Day


Contact me ASAP to register for this class or if you have a bunch of friends wanting to create this contact me and maybe we can book a private party for you.

Cheers, 
K

Lift me Up - Set sampler part 4

 Here are the last two Lift Me Up samples. Have I convinced you it's a MUST get set? Hee hee.


This sample by Kim Stathakos showcases the Seaside embossing folder as well as the stamp set.  And such a cute idea using the negative space for the clouds.
 

 And here is one from Lisa Henderson. Love those cute little clouds to make the pattern background.


Which has been your favourite Lift me Up sample?

On Friday I'll share the latest Coffee, Cookies and Cards samples!

Lift me Up - Cardmaker's club

My card buffet was hopping busy and so much fun!  If you missed out, that's sad :( But you'll have to make a plan to come to the next one in the spring.

This week is club and I'll be showcasing the Lift me Up stamp set.


This card I CASED Jenn Tinline's collage idea and created this one using the Carried Away Designer Series paper. 

 
During Sale-A-Bration earn this paper pack FREE with every $60 order

 The second card features the amazing framelits and a masking technique using sponges


 I'm super excited to stamp with my ladies this week! Two more samples to share on Wednesday.

Cheers, 
K

Lift Me Up part 3

Here are two more Life Me UP cards from my set sampler.

 I love the way Laurie LaRose used the Writing Notes background stamp for this "Just a note ... " card.


And this card from Lorna Raczynski is 3D! How cool is that and the vellum clouds are super unique!


I'm convincing you fall in love with set aren't I :)


Have a great weekend and check back on Monday for my club cards using this great set!

 Cheers, 
K

Lift Me Up samples part 2

One great thing I love about this set is the fact you can purchase the bundle and get the stamps and co-ordinating framelits with it for a 10% savings!





And during Sale-A-Bration with any purchase over $60 you can receive this Carried Away paper pack for FREE.

 This card by Ellie Blake is a fancy fold and highlights the Carried Away Designer Series paper.


A collage sample from Jenn Tinline featuring the stamp set and Designer Series paper is so cute. 


 And Leena Girsa's card is adorable and also combines all these elements plus the ovals framelits. I love the way she used the cloud framelit for the sentiment too.

Hope you are inspired to lift someone's spirits today!

Cheers, 
K
