Summer Smooches Sneak Peek

Stampin' Up! has offered our customers the opportunity to purchase sneak peek items for the first time. These are called Summer Smooches, and the paper, brads, stamp set, etc. are adorable. I had a Sneak Peek class today and these are what we made:



The above card was cased from talented designer Elizabeth Hurst. I love this card. So simple, yet adorable!


Hands down, the ladies told me their favorite item today was making the little purse. Of course, I gave each of them a little bag of chocolate to put into the purse. I think only about half the chocolate actually made it into the purse!!

I can't wait to make more items with these papers and stamp set. I LOVE them.

Punch Bunnies

I needed a quick gift the other day (remembered at around midnight the night before the event) and so whipped out these little bunny gifts. Whew. Saved the day because the ladies loved them!


Just a reminder, today is the LAST DAY that you can order to get sale-a-bration free items. You can just click on my shop online button above and take advantage of the free items. Particularly since all of those free items are going away after today. I'm soooo sad because I love the Fresh Vintage Stamp Set and the Designer Series Paper.

Stamp Set of the Month - Herb Expressions

One of my goals this past year was to start focusing on one stamp set every month to not only show its versatility, but also to challenge myself. Herb Expressions is a stamp set that I purchased early on in my Stampin' Up! career because I thought I could use it in so many ways, and then there is sat. One of my customers specifically asked that I focus on this stamp set in an upcoming stamp-set-of-the-month class that I offer.






I'd love your feedback. More than that, I'd love to hear if there is a stamp set that you would like to see focused on in the upcoming months.

Selling - Retired Stamp Sets

Its time to clear out the old to make way for the new. Ergo, I'm parting with my treasures of retired Stampin' Up! stamp sets. Policy states that we are not allowed to sell sets that are retired under a year old, so check back often because as a catalog or mini's year is up, many of those stamp sets will also go on sale.

Prices don't include shipping prices. I try to ship the cheapest way possible for buyer-if you have multiple items, then would ship in a flat rate envelope/box if possible.
Buyer pays shipping fees. If interested, please email me privately at kayleengc@att.net. I accept paypal only. My paypal address is kayleengc@att.net.

Once I email you the total price with cost for shipping, payment must be made within 24 hours, or have heard from you within 24 hours in case you've changed your mind about items, etc. I don't hold items past 24 hours unless special arrangemnts have been made with me.

Thanks so much and happy stamping!!

A Dozen Thank You's - Card Buffet Class

Another fun card buffet class. I wanted to share with you to adorable thank you cards we made.


This was one of my favorite cards and was cased directly from the Stampin' Up! catalog. Ingredients and measurements can be found here. This is a hostess set and only available through the end of May. Don't hesitate to contact me if you would like to purchase this set in either wood mount or clear.



I'm always being asked to include masculine cards so I went totally masculine with this card. This was designed by Susan Miller, and ingredients and measurements can be found here.

An oldie but a goodie, Circle Circus is a stamp set I would hate to see leave as it is a great set to whip out a clean, but unique card such as this card which was designed by Deb Pedersen. Ingredients and measurements can be found here.


This is a card that I cased directly from the catalog, and I almost didn't include it into the buffet. It was one of the first cards to disappear off of the buffet. My clients loved it. Details can be found here.


This was another class favorite. I love this set but had not used it until this class. I received this card as part of the All Catalog Swap I hosted last year, and it was designed by Elin Kovash. Details can be found here.

And finally,


This was another really popular card. This actual card was designed by Deb Pedersen. It was the first time I used that stamp set, and as a result of this card, three of my customers ordered this set!! Details can be found here.

Thanks for stopping by.

Techniques

Tomorrow night will be the first of a monthly class I am beginning to teach -- Techniques! I used to teach one technique with every class that I taught, but my customers and downline have asked that I repeat so many of the techniques that I thought it might be a good idea to start a monthly class dedicated to learning techniques. Of course, we will also make a card using the new technique that we've learned. After all, that's half the fun!

These are the techniques that I will be teaching tomorrow evening:

Polished Stone


Definitely one of my favorite techniques. So much fun and the variety is endless. I like this card because with very little effort, it is a great masculine card.


Black Magic


This technique was by far the most requested. I decided to just do a 3 x 3 card so that they could make it with whatever sentiment they needed.


Crayon Resist


The sample card was pretty darn easy, but the main card had me stumped until I ran across a beautiful card designed by a lady named Manetta. I really like the way it turned out.


Spotlighting


Then last, but not least, is the old tried and true Spotlighting technique. The "Packed for" stamp sets in Stampin' Up!'s new mini are perfect for this technique. I want to thank Diana Echfield for the inspiration of that idea and for this card. I taught spotlighting a long time ago so that's why there are two demo cards -- each showing a different way to "spotlight" something on the card.

I think next month I will do the Shaving Cream technique as one of my cards. Thanks so much for stopping by. Please leave me a note to let me know that you visited. Thanks.
