Free Card Kits and Sale-A-Bration ends Friday!

The last day of Sale-A-Bration is Friday March 31. With a $50 order you get to choose a Sale-A-Bration item, plus I’ll send you a Free Card Kit with three cards that are quick and easy to make. These cards are made with retired Designer Series Paper (DSP) that you can’t get anywhere else.

With a $75 order, you’ll get an SAB item plus the kit to make all six cards!

A $100 order will get you two SAB items, Free Card kit to make all six cards and the cute Envelope Punch Board box to put them in.

I hope you want the kit to make all six cards plus the box, so if you live in the US, please order from my online store and use the Host Code CRJSYAZX. You can also email me at Beth@StampingMom.com 🙂

Please subscribe to my blog, follow me on Pinterest here or Facebook here.

Here’s the box made with the Envelope Punch Board. It fits three cards and three envelopes and makes a lovely gift.

Here’s a comment I received from Jean after she received her Free Card Kit: “The card kit to make six cards is great! I received a set with my recent order. The cards are so pretty. They were very easy to put together. I cannot wait to send them to my friends and family.”

If you live in the US, please place an order with me and use this Host Code CRJSYAZX and your card kit will be in the mail to you soon.

Can’t wait to hear from you!

Touches of Texture

I told you Robin Myren stopped by last month to stamp with me. We had a great time! Well, during my Paper Pumpkin class recently, the mailman came and for some reason I decided to run out and get the mail. In the mailbox was a Paper Pumpkin box, which threw me for a loop, because I had already received my Paper Pumpkin for the month. I opened it up and inside was this gorgeous thank you card and note card set from Robin! Wow Robin! I LOVE this thank you card and note card set! So did the ladies at my Paper Pumpkin class. They loved these so much, they insisted we have a class and make these cards.

Robin stamped everything in black and colored in the flowers with a blender pen. Wouldn’t you love to receive this sweet card in the mail?!

Look at all the pretty colors she used. Wisteria Wonder, Perfect Plum, Sweet Sugarplum, Blushing Bride and Pink Pirouette. Can you see the tiny pearls in the center of the flowers?

What a lovely and thoughtful gift. Sometimes when we CASE cards ( Copy and Share Everything) we tweak it and make it our own. In this case I want to make cards exactly like Robin did! Thanks Robin for the beautiful cards and for being my sweet stamping friend.

Anyone who lives or visits the Des Moines area and wants to come to a class and make these cards, please leave a comment or send me an email to Beth@StampingMom.com

Flower Shop Thank you

Guess what? This card was chosen as a Pals Paper Arts pick of the week! Thanks so much to the PPA design team for choosing my card!

Yeah! I’m back!!!! I’ve been to New York City, Okoboji, and Kansas City all in the last two weeks. It’s time for me to stay home for awhile. My puppies missed me and my gardens and stamping have been suffering. I’ve also missed sleeping in my own bed. There’s no place like home!

UYS # 227 Good Things in 3’s! is the challenge at Use Your Stuff Challenge Blog this week. Here’s my threes: 3 flowers, 3 kinds of polka dots, 3 colors. Please play along here. I’m a designer for this challenge blog. 🙂

I love the sketch challenge at PalsPaperArts this week. Please play along here. I hope to be a designer for this challenge blog some day!

With all the fun things in the new Stampin’ Up! catalog, don’t forget to use the awesome stamps that have been around for awhile. This flower from the Flower Shop stamp set is one of my favorites because of it’s whimsical look. I also love that I can punch it out with the Pansy punch.

Superman did his second triathlon of the season today. He did awesome!

They swam 1/2 mile. These blue swim cap guys are the 40 and over men. There were five other groups that started their swim in staggered heats. Elite men, elite women, under 40 men, under 40 women and over 40 women.

Biked 16 miles. Biggest obstacle was that his iPhone holder fell off his bike three times. He lost about 5 minutes in total retrieving it. His speed is usually at least 20 miles per hour, so his iPhone case did a great job. The screen did not break on his phone. Needless to say he has now used Gorilla glue on the phone holder on his bike and it will never fall off again!

Ran 3.2 miles.

There were actually a couple hundred people doing the triathlon this morning, but I noticed in most of the pictures, Superman is there by himself. Just assume it’s because Superman is winning! 🙂 Not really, but he did do very well!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
