Sunday Share - Time to Light The Candles Kit Style!

I was catching up on making cards for our grandkids to have on hand instead of having to rush out to the dollar store at the last minute - and I grabbed the fabulous Light The Candles Card Kit from our Kits Collection online. I took it camping with me because it has all I needed to make the cards without bringing a lot of extra supplies . . . perfect for small spaces!!

Look at the cool greetings in the stamp set - I know I will be using those stamps on lots of cards now that I I have opened my box! 

I really liked the colours in this kit - so bright and cheerful - they will make a great addition to the birthday box they keep on hand for their card giving. 

Did you try our kits yet?? They are so much fun to make and easy to take along for some down time relaxing or crafting with family and friends. You can click here to check out all the kits currently in stock! 

Do you make cards to share with anyone in your family like I do? Or do you make and send them out so someone gets happy mail? 

Whatever you do with your cards, I hope you are sharing them so someone is smiling and saying thank you for thinking of me . . . watch for a fun project coming in my newsletter on Wednesday!! Sign up if you haven't already so you keep up to date on my stamping world!

Happy stamping!

Sunday Share - Getting a Head Start on Festive Tags and Cards

Once the calendar flips over to the fall months, I know it's time to start planning how I will make all the cards and tags I want to have on hand for the holiday season ahead.  And I don't want a lot of stress while I work on projects, so making use of some of the shortcuts Stampin' Up! provides (like this all inclusive kit) is definitely on my list!!

When I saw the Festive Tags kit (#162485) my first thought was "Wow that's a lot of tags" and then I immediately thought - why not use them or some of them - on card bases to get quick and fancy cards in a flash? 

So that's what I'm doing with my kit that just arrived - I haven't had a chance to make any yet but you can be sure I will!! The price is great at only $18.00 for 15 tags (or card embellishments) so you can't beat that for a bargain!! Look at all you get in the box in the picture below!!

The kit includes:

Enough supplies to create 15 gift tags—3 each of 5 designs

Printed tags, printed die cuts and stickers, adhesive, and embellishments

Includes printed sentiments in English, French, German, and Dutch

Finished tag size range: 1-1/2" x 2" to 2-1/2" x 3"

Coordinating colors: Basic Black, Flirty Flamingo, Garden Green, Lost Lagoon, Pool Party, and Real Red

Watch the video as Sara shows us how to make up the kit - fun times!! 

Shop my online store for kits, or all your crafting supplies at this link - and remember the new Holiday Mini will be out on Wednesday, September 6th so be ready to shop!!  I put the picture at the top of this post so you know what to look for!! 

I have more catalogues here for pick up or drop off and I did mail them to my regular out of town customers. 

Happy stamping!
