Hello Stampers!
November has arrived and I’m excited to share this month’s Card Club To Go.  
The Curvy Christmas stamp set will be the star of the show.
This month’s Card Club To Go will include kits to create 8 cards (2 ea. of 4 designs), a pack of the NEW Classic Christmas 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, a 1/2 pack of the Gilded Gems and a roll of the Real Red 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon. (a $22 value).  Kits can either be shipped to you or picked up here if you are local.
Add on the Curvy Christmas stamp set for just $21 and you’ll save on shipping.
Note:  You will need this stamp set to complete the cards as designed.
Priority Shipping is $8.00 and Porch Pickup is available as well if you are local.
Add on the Quite Curvy Bundle which includes the Quite Curvy stamp set and the Curvy dies for an additional $41.50.

I will be demonstrating all of the projects via ZOOM Live on Saturday, November 28th at 10 a.m.  You’ll be able to create yours from the comfort of your own home.  The link will be sent out before the class.

For $35 a month, you will receive a fun craft kit, designed and constructed by me,  that includes at $20+ in product, several make and takes and a Zoom link to create with me LIVE.

Each month, I will choose one stamp set or bundle and design fun projects for you to create. If you don’t already have the stamp set, you can add it on to your kit or use what you already have. By adding on to your kit, you will save on tax and shipping!

Each month you will need to register no later than the 10th of the month.  Card Club To Go kits will ship on or before the 20th of each month. If you want to skip a month, you have to unsubscribe. I will not do “credits” or “substitutions.” I

I will email you several weeks before with the name of the stamp set we will be using as well as any specific inks or other product you might need. 

This is the perfect way to continue to stamp together…especially with social distancing in place.  I would love to have you join in the fun.

Stay tuned for this month’s Card Club To Go…posting tomorrow.

Here’ a little hint…  

Stamped Blessings,

The Perfect Mix

Happy Friday, Friends!
Whether you’re a big time “baker” or looking for the perfect gift for one, this project is for you.  The Perfect Mix stamp set (142930-wood) (142933-clear) has the sweetest images and and sentiments and they are “perfect” for this project.
All of the supplies you’ll need to create this beauty can be found at my Online Store.  Below you’ll find a step-by-step tutorial.  So….what are you waiting for?  Let’s get baking um, I mean stamping!
Perfect Mix Recipe Cards


     Supplies:
•      Stamp Sets – Perfect Mix (w-142930, c-142933)
•      Card Stock – Whisper White (100730)
•      Stamp Pads – So Saffron (126957); Wisteria Wonder (126985)
•      Misc. – Subtles Designer Series Paper Stack (DSP)  (138437); Envelope Punch Board (133774), Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies (145372), Big Shot (143263), Simply Scored Board (122334), Fast Fuse (129026), Stampin’ Dimensionals (104430)
           Measurements:
•      Whisper White Card Stock:    5-1/2” x 4-1/4”  (recipe cards) and 3” x 3”
•      So Saffron DSP:        9” x 9”
•      Wisteria Wonder DSP:        12” x 1-1/2” scored at 3”, 3-1/2”, 8-1/4” and 8-3/4” (belly band)
•      DSP strips (bottom of recipe cards:  5 1/2” x 3/4”                    
           Instructions: (Hint- I cut the words off each stamp in my set and use the words separately when I need them. If you don’t want to cut off the words, you can use So Saffron and Wisteria Wonder markers to color just the images and stamp them on the cards)1.    Print recipes 4 to a page and cut them out at 5-1/2” x 4-1/4”. This box can fit 18-20 recipe cards.
2.    Stamp baking images in top right corners of the recipe cards using So Saffron and Wisteria Wonder ink. Add a strip of DSP to the bottom of each card.
3.    Stamp oven mitt in So Saffron and “Baking Makes Life Sweeter” in Wisteria Wonder. Cut out using Big Shot and Stitched Shapes circle framelit.
4.    Create a box by scoring the 9” square DSP in the Envelope Punch board by punching/scoring at 3-5/8” AND 4-1/2” on the first side, then turning the paper 45 degrees and lining up the first score lines to punch and score. Repeat until all 4 sides have been punched and scored twice. Round the corners of all points on the top of the punch board.
5.    Cut off the small squares on the inside corners of your envelope/box and fold in on all the score lines to create a box. Adhere using Fast Fuse, leaving top of box open.
6.    Insert recipe cards into box and fold top down.
7.    Wrap Wisteria DSP around the box and adhere to itself in the front to create a belly band that can slide off. Attach “Baking” circle to the front using dimensionals to hide the seam.

“Wanna Swap?” Wednesday

Hey there, Stampers!

Welcome to the first edition of “Wanna Swap?” Wednesday!

I will be sharing some of my very favorite swaps from Stampin’ Up! Convention and other swaps that I participate in every Wednesday.  What are “swaps”?  Well, swaps are how we stampers share ideas with one another (to put it simply).  Now, at Convention there are swappers who bring anywhere from 25 to 500 cards to swap.  Yep!  Can you imagine 500 swaps????? Whew!  This year I made 100 swaps and I just had the best time meeting new friends as we shared ideas and traded swaps.

So….today you’ll get your first taste of the beauties I got to bring home with me this year and also some of the awesome swaps from an incredible group of stampers in our “Near and Far” swap group.
Are you ready??  Okay…Here ya go….

The BEST part about swapping for me is getting to see styles, colors and even techniques that I have never tried.  How fun is THAT??  I can’t wait to share more of these beauties with you.
Be sure to stop back by next Wednesday for more “Wanna Swap?” Wednesday fun!
Stamped Blessings,
