Another reason why a card kit is a great idea: I’ve just recently got home from a scout meeting and I felt like a quick craft. So I took a kit to the dining table. So I could ignore this done more. lol

Love the simplicity of this card. So quick and easy.

Got some more crafting in. This time the “Expressions of Kindness Kit”. First two cards as per instructs. The third is a modification. Very happy with them.

I love how quickly these kits come together. Everything is in the box, including adhesive. This particular kit you get an ink spot, stamp set and a block to use on so many other projects too. Love love love.

What started as a boxed card kit has turned into my own creations. Including a double page scrapbook layout. Love it. So fun.

Joined in on a Team Kit together tonight with demonstrators all around Australia. Loving it. Playing with ways to put my own spin on the cards and turn them into layouts.

Who would be keen to join me for one soon? You’d just need to buy one of the many kit options available on my Website. Could be on zoom or even in person? I’d love to hear your preference. Let me know in the comments.

Working ahead in my craft room tonight. Planning for the October Workshop Scrapbook layouts. It’ll be ready to share as a sneak peak at our September workshop. So be sure to join us if you want to see it early.

Also this cute stamp and punch set is out Sept 4 for purchase. “Sweetest Star”. Just might be a favourite for me this season.

Two nights in a row getting some play time in my craft room. How lovely.

Creating away. Stocking up my card stash again. I love how quickly the Ephemera packs and some strips of paper on a pretty card base. Finishing off with some bling.

27/08/2024

Looks what's coming Sept 4th.... yay... super excited. Scrapbooking kits, sticker sheets, and my favourite - two tone cardstock!!!! Whoo Hoo!!!!

Tonight’s card class (which was last weeks rescheduled cause I was unwell) - we made gift bags and bows instead. Love when I can give my participants options and let them create as they desire.

In our demonstrator training yesterday we were talking about Swatch Books and Product Shares.

I’m curious if people should be interested? I could start with this new Mini Caralogue in September.

A swatch book is a bit like a fabric or carpet swatch sample book - see the first photo (I borrowed from an American Demonstrator). You’d get a sample of each of the new paper packs - bound together in matching carstock - labelled with name, colours etc.

A product share is where I would divide up paper packs, embellishment packs etc and share them amongst those who purchase.

I’ve not looked at pricing or anything yet. But I think they’d be a great way for people to get a taste of new products before buying full packs etc. because it’s always nicer to see them in person.

Let me know in the comments if you are keen.

Forgot to grab a photo of my own Scrappy Chick’s team. But here are some from my upline’s team training day. I’m not good in glare. So just ignore my squinting. And yes I’ve got the bright red hair. lol.

Yay! We all knew this.

We have an update to share with you! Currently, CTMH™ products have only been available to former Makers, VIP customers, and customers who had an online account with Close To My Heart. Now that we’ve been able to welcome our Close To My Heart friends to the Stampin’ Up! community, we will be lifting these limitations so that more crafters have the opportunity to enjoy these items as well.

Starting 20 August, all demonstrators and customers who are based in the United States, Canada (excluding Quebec), and the South Pacific will be able to purchase products from Close To My Heart! Once available, these can be found in the CTMH™ Products category in our online store.

While we’re limited to offering CTMH products to markets in which Close To My Heart was already doing business (the United States, Canada, and the South Pacific), stay tuned! We have some scrapbook product releases coming soon with items available to ALL customers. Yay! We’ll share more about these scrapbook product releases as details become available.

Thanks for your help and understanding as we share Close To My Heart scrapbook products with even more crafters. As you share this update with your customers, please note that all CTMH items are available while supplies last.

Happy crafting!
Stampin’ Up!
