 Sentimental Rose Card Kit Unboxing

I’m excited to share with you a new line of creative products called the Kits Collection by Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Up! has taken the guess work out of creativity and done the hard parts, and you get to do the fun stuff: craft! Each kit is all-inclusive and includes the predesigned projects, preprinted pieces, and even the adhesives you need to complete the projects.  Some kits will have stamp sets and the opportunity to do your own stamping.  Those kits will include a stamping block and an ink spot.  Other kits don't require stamping at all, so you just get to assemble beautiful projects.  The kits are great, because they include everything you need to make the projects.

There’s a wide variety of kits for all different occasions, and new kits will be added regularly.  Kits are available only while supplies last! 

Pick the kit that’s right for you.  We will be using the Sentimental Rose card kit for an IN PERSON event this month.  If you are interested, please let me know.  Our in-person events will be limited to 4 people and be held outside in my yard.


Also, you can get next month's Paper Pumpkin at

May Paper Pumpkin - Batter Up

 May Paper Pumpkin

Two ways





All images © Stampin’ Up!

This is just what I needed- some masculine cards with a baseball theme.  I absolutely do not have anything like this is my stash of stamping goodies, yet I do have men in my life that love baseball.  These make the perfect birthday card or any occasion card for them.  I love using the Paper Pumpkin kits as a starting point for my creative projects.  They give me inspiration as well as some items that I may not have thought to have in my stamping supplies.

I was wrong and I admit it.  It isn't the first time and won't be the last.  I did not think I would like Paper Pumpkin so I neglected to try it and neglected to tell you all about it.  I'm sorry about that now.  I have had so much fun with my little mini 3 month subscription that I have now gotten a 12 month subscription.  This little box of self-contained fun has been awesome.  There are just some days that I don't have the creativity going or don't want to even try to design something, but these projects come with everything you need in one fun-filled box.  And even better, once i see the projects pre-designed for us, I can then just pull stuff off my work surface and create something as different or as similar as I want.  Wow!  Who knew being wrong could be so fun!  And knowing that I can skip a month or more whenever I want, by suspending my subscription makes the subscription so much more appealing.


COMING SOON:
June Paper Pumpkin cards.  And I’m looking forward to June Paper Pumpkin.  It looks so pretty.

NEXT MONTH:
In Person opportunities with NEW Stampin’ Up Kits.  Beginning June 1, Stampin’ Up will have a variety of kits available for purchase.  We will use the Sentimental Rose Card Kit.  The in-person party will be toward the end of June giving you time to get your kit and join us.  Please let me know if you are interested.
