Starting Wednesday 5 October – the Twelve Weeks of Christmas! This is my “thank you” to those on my mailing list. Each week brings an exclusive holiday project tutorial – we start with cards and then move to giftables, packaging and tags. Each Wednesday will bring a new tutorial!
The emails start tomorrow at 1pm Eastern – so you need to be on my list by then to get all 12 projects! They are not sent out again, so if you have a strong sense of “FOMO” (Fear of Missing Out), you’ll want to be sure you’re on the list! You can click on the image / click on this link / use the sign up box at the top of the post to register. You’ll get a free video tutorial too! See you in your inbox!
Tuesday, 4 October 2022 ONLY – free shipping on qualified orders!
Stampin’ Up! is offering free shipping for any product orders of $100CAD or more on Tuesday, 4 October! It’s a great way to get more crafting products for your dollars! The $100CAD is calculated before taxes, so keep that in mind. Shortcut to shopping is https://yamstamps.com/shop
If you have a smaller order and can do a porch pickup in Burlington ON, you can message me with what you’d like to order. I’ll be placing a group order – that way, everyone included in that order will qualify for free shipping!
Also starting Tuesday 4 October – the Starter Kit+ promotion!
The Demonstrator starter kit is already a great deal and a great way to start off your own home based business. Normally, you get $165CAD product of your choice, a Paper Pumpkin kit and basic business supplies for just $135. Starting tomorrow until the end of October, you’ll get $206 worth of product of your choice for the same $135! You never pay shipping on the starter kit, and you only pay PST. If you live in a province with blended or harmonized taxes (e.g. ON), you pay NO taxes on your starter kit.
Celebrate World Cardmaking Day on Saturday 1 October!
There are “days” for everything it seems – but this is one of my favourite ones! World Cardmaking Day 2022 is TODAY – Saturday, 1 October. OK, truthfully, I think EVERY day is World Cardmaking Day, but whatever.
I hope that you are able to find a bit of time today to make something! Happy World Cardmaking Day! (Oh…and come back soon for a fun announcement too!)
I know, it’s hard to believe…but the Twelve Weeks of Christmas 2022 edition starts next week – on 5 October to be precise!
The Twelve Weeks of Christmas
As a thank you to those on my mailing list, I send out an exclusive holiday project tutorial each week during the twelve weeks leading up to Christmas. This year, the projects will start on Wednesday 5 October at 1pm Eastern – but only if you’re on the list! Click here, or on the image above, or fill in your information in the box at the top right of the site – so many ways so you don’t miss out!!
Cheery patterns and a fun card design mean this playful tent card is sure to bring a smile to someone’s face!
There are some projects that just make me smile – and this is one of them…so I figure this playful tent card will also bring a smile to the recipient’s face as well!
playful tent card
This card features patterned paper from the Design a Daydream Designer Series Paper (“DSP”) I thought that the kites and bikes went together well. Since they’re from the same package of paper, they have coordinating colours and go together well on a card.
This playful tent card also features a bit of a fun fold. The tent fold portion is a little shorter than usual, which means you can add the extra piece on top and still have a standard sized card. (I like my cards to fit into regular medium Stampin’ Up! envelopes!). The words are die cut with the Floral Gallery Dies from Pool Party cardstock, one of the colours in the DSP. *crafting hack alert* I used a kitchen product to make applying the die cuts a little more easy…. I put the die cut words face down on some Press ‘n Seal wrap, then applied dots of Multipurpose Glue to the back of them. I picked up the wrap and then placed it onto the card where I wanted the words, rubbed over top and then carefully peeled back the wrap.
We made this card during Stampers Club this month, and the Press ‘n Seal was great for transporting the die cuts (and making sure that the little dot on top of the “J” didn’t get lost!), as well as applying them to the card. It made making the playful tent card much easier! We are meeting virtually for club, which means everyone gets their card kits ahead of club night, and then we gather via Zoom (or via recording for those who can’t make it “live”) to assemble the cards. Club is also great for those who like to be able to purchase items that are only available with Stampin’ Rewards, like this DSP! Each member joins for a 6 month period, and once during that 6 month period, each member gets to use the Stampin’ Rewards for the club orders that month. It’s a great way to budget out craft spending since there’s a minimum order required ($33CAD product at this time), and also know that you’ll be able to earn guaranteed Stampin’ Rewards! If you’re in Canada and are interested in joining us, contact me. New members can start their 6 month membership at any club meeting.
