Its probably a little on the late side to share this. A friend sent me this christmas card that she hand made. It is a Stampin' Up! Memories and More product.
Memories & more are actually designed for scrapbooking and the various sized cards fit into our Photo Pocket Pages along with your photos. The thing is just because something is designed for one thing does not mean it can't be used for something else. I actually have a memories and more pack here that I had been planning on making during a Make With Me! video for you. I shall have to get onto it now so you can see what I am talking about. Pop over to the Shop Site and have a look at the items you will see what I mean.
The Memories and More and Kits are a great fun way of doing a little craft without the mess. They are fantastic if you travel as they are small and many come with every you need included. They would pack in a caravan or luggage.
My friend bought a couple of Memories and more packs and put them away for while she was in the process of moving interstate and the house was all packed up (including her crafting room) and she was left in the in between houses.
The value of kits is great too. They usually have plans for making 12 cards but in truth, there is leftovers and like the leftovers in any good lamb roast where the leftovers are better the next day, those leftovers make many more cards.
You can order any of the products used by clicking on them below.
If you live in Australia and are looking for a Stampin' Up! demonstrator to shop with or join under, I would love to help you and support you in your creative journey.
How are you? I hope the sun is shining down on you wherever you are. I have a lovely 9*c morning with beautiful sunshine. It sure is saying come outside.
Let's talk craft!
So much more exciting and interesting.
A New Card Kit
How do you like it?
Do you like sending cards at Christmas? Its a
nice reminder that we are thought about and even though we may not have
seen each other for a while we still think of others in our lives.
I
know some people do not like writing much or anything in a card and
others write a catch up epistle. We are all different, but I must say,
receiving something other than a bill or junk mail in the mailbox,
especially when it is hand made is really nice.
And why do I bother sending hand made cards?
Because it makes me feel good when I can share a little bit of pleasure and happiness and love to them. Because there is so much more said than the words on the page when someone has spent their precious time and energy to make something a bit more special to send to me. There is more love in them, that's why.
I guess my other question is have you started getting ready for Christmas yet? I am sure it will be on us before we know it!

Here is 3 ways to use the one Suite for Happiness Abounds. You will use lots of the DSP in making a scrapbook page and also in either die cutting or fussy cutting with your paper trimmers the flower bunches on the DSP. The DSPs in this suite are absolutely beautiful. They have been extremely popular since their arrival in June.
On the above scrapbook page the flowers have been overstamped and embossed.

Need Inspiration???
Here is lots. Also if you look on my good friend Virginia's Blog she shows how to make a Gift Bag from our DSP's. They are beautiful and you just need to choose the DSP to suit the occasion ...Valentines, Christmas, Birthday, Kids, etc.
Do you like to bake and cook little gifts for friends and teachers? Here is a packaging solution for you to gift them in. They really do look lovely, don't they!
Scrapbooking anyone?
Have a look at these wedding favours? Stampin' Up! often have Dies for little boxes/bags.
Well I do hope you have enjoyed all the inspirational pics. Happy Shopping, Happy Card Making.
