Creativity Abounds Birthday Blog Hop
Welcome to our monthly Creativity Abounds Blog Hop! We are a group of Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world that are coming together to share our creative ideas with you. We are happy that you can join us and hope that we can Inspire you to make creations of your own.
You may be starting here or have come from someone else’s blog – either way there is a list at the end of this post to help you move around all the different blogs and get many amazing ideas. We all have our country listed – so if you are looking for a demonstrator in your country, these demonstrators would love to look after you with your Stampin’ Up!® shopping or if you would like to join our Stampin’ Up!® teams.
If you like ice cream or birthdays, Share a Milkshake Bundle may be one of your favorite bundles in the new Spring Stampin’ Up Mini Catalog. Customers can order starting Jan 5, 2023. It was fun to put this quick and easy card together. I thought of all kinds of possibilities pairing this bundle with the Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper (DSP). You can choose this DSP free with a $100 order in the USA. I also used the new Cane Weave embossing folder. I’m planning to make several similar cards so I always have a birthday card ready to mail. I also want to make some gift sets to give out as birthday gifts. Why buy your friends and family gifts when you can make them something from your heart!

In this month’s Tutorial Bundle, I have the directions to make my stand up calendars. I think sending a calendar to someone with a December or January birthday makes so much sense because they can enjoy it all year long. I used the Dandy Designs DSP for my calendars too. It is definitely a good choice for your Sale-A-Bration rewards.
I’m doing Spring Catalog product shares again starting Jan. 5, 2023. I will expedite my order from Stampin Up and you will receive your shares the week of Jan 16th. My paper shares have twice as much paper because I do 6″ x 12″ paper. For a “I want it all” share including paper, ribbon and embellishments, it’s only $80 shipping included. If you can pick it up at my door in West Des Moines, IA it’s $72. Here’s a pdf showing exactly what’s included in my shares.

Here’s one of our Samplers made by Stamping Joy Club. Everyone makes nine 3″ x 3″ square and we swap them and then have a Zoom party to put them together. You can join Stamping Joy Club and make a new Sampler with us every three months. If you don’t want a Sampler you can make cards from these swaps as well. The card below is made with my 3″ swap.
