Right after typing the title for this post I had to Google it to be sure that there was nothing derogatory behind...thankfully there is not! As we wrap up the weekend, I wanted to take a minute to talk with you about Stampin' Up! kits because I am positively hooked on them and think that you will be too if you give them a try!
On Friday, I held my monthly papercrafting gathering and everyone assembled the Hip Hip Hooray card kit. What an amazing value! Twenty cards, three fabulous stamps, and a Stampin' Up! The only thing you need to assemble the kit is a pair of Paper Snips and sticky note to do some masking (alternately a Stampin' Write Marker works). I think everyone had fun assembling these and I also gave a live demo of how to make the boxes with lids that I shared last weekend. In my book, this kit is a great investment and can easily yield a couple fabulous gufts for teachers, colleagues, or friends.
Look at those incredible contents! What you see above is the contents of the February Paper Pumpkin kit. Six sweet little gift bags to make. When is the last time you saw adorable six gift bags with embellishments for $19.95 plus tax? I'll be sharing what I've done with this kit later in the week!
As I said at my gathering on Friday, I really believe Stampin' Up! has really increased the quality and value of kits these last several months. I've been thrilled with every kit that I purchased from the Occassions catalog and think there is only one that I have yet to purchase!
Now you may be saying to yourself, "Of course Kerry is going to tell us the Stampin' Up! kits are great...she stands to benefit if we buy them." And, yes, it is true, I do receive a small commission when you purchase your Stampin' Up! supplies from me...I'd be lying if I didn't. What I can tell you, though, is that I use and promote the products that I love and think you will too. Stampin' Up! is not the only thing I do -- I work outside the home three days week and do my best to focus my time and attention on family as possible while still juggling things like laundry, cooking, and with my blogging and other aspects of my Stampin' Up! business the rest of the week. Kits allow me to quickly and easily create fun projects to share with you...and that is just one more thing to love about them!
If you have yet to purchase a kit from the Occasions catalog or to become a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, I encourage you to give one or both of these options a try! If you subscribe to Paper Pumpkin by March 10, you'll get your welcome kit this month and you'll also receive a FREE set of 2012-2014 InColor Markers!
Happy crafting, friends! Thanks for stopping by!
