Hugs from Shelli – Paper Pumpkin Kit

Strange title eh? Well Shelli Gardner is co-founder and chair of the board of directors of Stampin’ Up! and she has put together this lovely cardmaking kit, which is available to order from May 15th for a limited time only (while stocks last).

So, you ask, what is paper pumpkin?

Paper Pumpkin is the name given to a bespoke kit of card making products that complements current Stampin’ Up! products. In the US there is a monthly subscription to have these kits sent directly to you, but this hasn’t happened in the UK. And this kit is a one off for us at present, but who knows!

This kit contains ;

  • An exclusive stamp set not available anywhere else
  • One Classic Stampin’ Spot® from our Classic ink collection
  • Paper and crafting materials to create 12 cards (3 cards of 4 unique designs)
  • 12 exclusive, coordinating envelopes
  • Adhesives and embellishments for all 12 cards

The kit also works well with a stampset available in the next annual catalogue

I am running a workshop based around this kit on Tuesday 4th June from 2-4pm.

The cost is £20 for a full kit for you to get at the workshop and make one of each card and take the rest home to play with yourself at the end , or why not go halves with a friend and pay £10 each and split the set?

Places are limited, so please reserve your spot soon

More from OnStage

So, as I said on my last blog, I had a brilliant time at the Onstage event in Telford last weekend and as well as my ‘team’ swaps I also was given a few other general swaps (even tho I didn’t make any myself to give out).

The blue Gingham card is stunning! I need to work out what the card design is called and see if I can make my own version! This one was made by Gill Moore

I was also given this lovely notebook and pen holder from Zoe as a thank you gift. Thank you Zoe!!

Team Swaps

So, what a lovely weekend I’ve just had. Two nights in a lovely B&B just outside Telford, a fleeting visit to Ironbridge (never been before but must go back again!) and to top it off a day with almost 600 like minded Stampers at the Stampin’ Up convention at the International centre in Telford.

It was a great day involving networking with people from all over the country (and some from abroad), looking at the next catalogue (due out June 4th) and seeing demonstrations using of several of the new stamp sets that will feature. It was a fun packed day and it was great to be able to put faces and names to people I usually only see on social media sites!

The Tantalizing Stampers

I am part of Zoe Tant’s Tantalizing stampers team, and 10 of us who attended the On Stage event made cards to swap between us. It is a fab way of seeing someone else’s card ideas!

Thought you might like to look at some of the team swaps I received this weekend.

Over the next few days I will show you a few other bits and pieces I got at the event.

For now, Happy Stamping!

April 2019 Team swaps

The twice yearly Stampin Up! convention was on, on April 13th and as usual I took part in the Tantalizing Stampers group swap.

This is where we make a card for everyone participating, swap cards whilst there and bring home lots of cards with other peoples ideas! Great for those days when your mind goes blank!

So for my swap, I used the fabulous Flamingo Stampset and made a ‘pocket card, with a little message on. Hope everyone liked it!

And this was the what my swap looked like…….

In the next few days, I will show you the swaps I recieved….
