Drop the Hint!

Drop the Hint – so they don’t drop the ball! Mother’s Day is this Sunday (in North America) – and if your family needs a little reminder….let them know they can purchase YamStamps Gift Certificates! They can pay online and have a gift certificate emailed to them. They can print it out (or download and re-email it?!) so that Mom can receive it on May 10th.

Share Sunshine

Stampin’ Up! just released a digital download called Share Sunshine – and 100% of proceeds go to two charities – the World Health Organization and the United Way.

Share Sunshine

This pdf is full of sentiment and images that are perfect for crafting in the time of corona. I’ve already downloaded my set and can’t wait to get crafting with it later today. At this point in time, the download will be available until June 2, 2020.

This is a non-commissionable item – meaning neither demonstrators nor the company will receive funds for sales – literally all of the money will go towards the charities! Crafting for a good cause!

You can purchase your download here. Please note that purchase price is USD and will be converted by your credit card company.

New Products Available Today!

No fooling! There are new products available today! The Ornate Garden Suite is here a few months early. It will be featured in the next Annual Catalogue from Stampin’ Up!, but you can order items starting today. Here’s a project made using some of the items…

Ornate Garden Sample

This suite features two stamp sets, two die sets, ribbon, embossing folder, bling and specialty Designer Series Paper. I did an informal unboxing video in the Paper Crafting with YamStamps Facebook Group the other day, and I’m working on getting some projects made so I can share them here and in real life.

You can grab these items in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada store – shortcut yamstamps.com/shop or message me if you would like assistance placing your order.

I hope that you are able to find some time to do some fun, crafty things! For me, crafting can be a great outlet, though in these days, often I find my creative “mojo” can be fleeting at times. I craft when inspiration and energy strike, and I take time to stare out the window when I need to. In between, I also try to remember to do some housework, and then there’s that day job as well….hahaha! Stay well, everyone!

Stand Alone Pop Up Card

Love these meerkats – because we all need a reason to smile these days! I thought it was appropriate to make a stand alone pop up card for this card/sentiment…

stand alone pop up card

Get it….stand up friend….stand up card? (The social distancing is obviously getting to me a bit more than I thought). Anyway….this card features the Sale-a-Bration Level 1 reward stamp set The Gang’s All Meer and the suuuper cute Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper from the Jan-June Mini Catalogue. This is one of those papers that it’s hard to pick a favourite side – since these papers are double sided. While the patterns are really functional for all sorts of cards, you are inevitably hiding a cute design on the other side (in this case I think we hid some koalas….).

I am planning on doing a facebook live for this card tomorrow (Thursday), I’ll do it on the YamStamps Facebook Page, so please “like” and “follow” the page to get notified when I go live. (Please note how close I am to a nice round number of “likes”, not that numbers are all I care about and all that it’s about, but come on). At this point I’m thinking late morning, depends on how my day is going. You know, jobs to avoid doing, dust bunnies to step around…I am actually amazed at how little I can truly get accomplished in one day, even when I’m not leaving the house – though I justify it by saying that I am on vacation (which I am)….but still. I’ll probably get a huge burst of initiative and inspiration on Sunday! LOL.

Anyway, I’ll show the construction of this card, and then I will post an instruction file in the Paper Crafting with YamStamps Facebook Group, (if you’re not a member, click on the link and request to join). Just a heads up if you want to craft along with me – You’ll need 4.5″ x 11″ piece of cardstock, plus a 3″ x 4.5″ and 2.75″ x 4.25″ (those last two measurements are off the top of my head right now, hoping I got it correct…I guess we’ll find out tomorrow). I hope that you can join me for a break in your day and make this stand alone pop up card with me live! See you then!
