This is a level 2 hostess set that you can earn with sales over $395 (Canadian) at your Stampin' Up! workshop. This is another swap from the Hamilton regional demonstrator training event last month…although this demo didn't identify herself on her swap, so I can't give her credit!!! I love the effective use of colour on this one – you don't necessarily need a lot of layers to create a great card! I can see creating a whole bunch of these in one shot and tying them with a pretty ribbon as a gift for a friend…or even to keep on hand to send off in the mail. Nothing like a handmade card in the mail to make someone's day a little brighter!!
If you're interested in making a bunch of cards…..don't forget that I have monthly card classes here in Burlington ON, or gather a group of friends together and I can come to you!! I am working on finalizing a few more card designs for the Christmas Card Clinics – I'll start revealing some of the designs tomorrow! You can select a design and I will precut all the cardstock & have the supplies prepped and waiting for you. Minimum of 10 cards, $25 includes all supplies plus envelopes, and if you need more than 10 cards, each additional card is only $2. Contact me for more information – and check my events page for the dates.
Today's reflection – I am thankful for my family…and I'm looking forward to having turkey dinner with some of them this evening!!
This beautiful card was created by Barb Walkem, one of the demonstrators in my downline (one of my Stampin' Up! family!). It features the stamp set "Just Believe" from the current Idea Book & Catalogue. I love the clean elegant look of this one, and the colours are reminiscent of the ones outside my window right now.
Barb created this cardfront to "swap" with other demos at the Hamilton regional event a while back, and was kind enough to share one with me (even though I didn't have anything to swap back at the time!!). Swaps like this are a great way for me to get inspiration and ideas to use in my future card classes (see, you don't have to be that creative to be a demonstrator, just a good copier!! LOL).
Hope you have a chance to spend time with friends and family this weekend. This Thanksgiving weekend, I'm taking time to reflect on all the aspects of my life for which I am thankful. Here's one – I'm grateful for the friends I've met (and have yet to meet!) through Stampin' Up!
One more video to share with you. Wishing all my Canadian friends a very Happy Thanksgiving. Looks like it's going to be a beautiful weekend, weather-wise, as well!! Hoping to get out and take some pictures of the colours – and get some scrapbooking of said photos done!! In the meantime, for your viewing pleasure…another technique video featuring some of Stampin' Up!'s great product that's available in the demonstrator starter kit. Contact me for more information!
