Cozy and Bright and September News from Stampin' Up!

 Hello crafty friends!

Stampin' Up! has really created a great product with the Kits Collection.  The kits are all inclusive and are designed for stampers of all levels.  The newest kit, Cozy & Bright, is not exception!  This kit makes 12 seasonal cards for the holidays, all of the same design, but the adorable included stamp set allows you to customize the greetings as needed.  Take a look at three of the cards I made up from this kit and the three matching decorated envelopes.

World Cardmaking Day

Mark your calendar for this one!  Stampin' Up! is holding a "craft along" event - and you are invited!

World Card Making Day is all about making beautiful, heartfelt cards. During the event, we’ll walk you through several projects, and you’ll create the cards right along with us. You’ll end up with new project ideas and some stunning new cards!

To make the most of this experience, you can order the Cottage Rose Bundle from the 2022–2023 Annual Catalog, the Cottage Wreaths Bundle from the July–December 2022 Mini Catalog, or the Warm Welcome Bundle, which you can get early from the January–June 2023 Mini Catalog! If you want, you could even order all three bundles! The Warm Welcome Bundle will be available for purchase starting 1 September*.

When you order any bundle, you’ll get a FREE gift of Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels! (Note that even if you order all three bundles, you’ll only receive one Iridescent Pearls gift.) 

See the flyer below for more information, including the products that will be used during this event.  Order here to get your products prior to October 1!  And register here to save your space for this free event!  

                                                     *******

Phew!  That was a lot!  Don't worry, I'll post updates on my Facebook page to remind you of all these fun events!

Meantime,  I have a free tutorial for you.  It's for the card I posted to my Facebook page yesterday.  Happy creating!

Please use the host code, VSGFBVRN when ordering.   If your order is more than $150.00, do not use the code.  Doing so would forfeit your earned hostess benefits.  However, you will still receive this month's order bonus from me.

I am grateful for you selecting me as your Stampin' Up! demonstrator.  Thank you!   If there is ever anything I can do for you, please just let me know.

Make it a stamp-tastic day!
