Looking a little more at our Blendabilities.  How do we color with our blendabilities.

Grandma's Rocking Chair - July 27, 2014 - Hip Hip Hooray Card Kit

Grandma's Rocking Chair - Reviewing Hip Hip Hooray Card Kit.

Today I needed a few cards and didn't have a lot of time to design a great card so I grabbed my Hip hip Hooray Set and made a few.  Hip Hip Hooray Card Kit makes 20 unique cards.




I had forgotten all about it and am so glad I thought about it today. 


You get enough supplies to make 20 cards. Including:
20 printed card bases (10 ea. of 2 designs)
5 sticker sheet, 
20 Kraft envelopes,
1 shhet of Stampin' Dimensionals,
18" of Whisper White Baker's Twine,
10 mini paperclips,
3-piece Hip Hip Hooray Stamp Set
Clear Stamp Block
1 Basic Gray Stampin' Spot
Instructions which is great as it is for 20 different cards.
You can also get this in Spanish.

I love this kit.  I also have Everyday Occasions Cardmaking kit, maybe next time I will grab that one. Today the Hip Hip Hooray was the one I grabbed and I am glad I did.  You can make 20 cards for around $1.00 a piece, pretty good price I think.

So order your kit now for those times when you really need a quick card.  Or make them all at once and keep them handy.


Don' t forget about this great deal.

(Let's say you sign up on May 10, we'll send your kit around May 15. If you sign up on May 11, we'll send your first kit around the June 15.)

Grandma's Rocking Chair - July 20, 2014 - Mini Stamp Convention

Grandma's Rocking Chair today will be about the Mini Stamp Camp I just finished.

Since I did not go to the Stampin' Up! Inspire, Create, Share Convention this year I thought we would have one here in Cheyenne WY.

We started out on Thursday with Single Layer Card Class which was repeated on Saturday.


Then there was a card layering class
Then I held an Advance Envelope Punch Board Class which was repeated on Saturday.  We made a match box pop up gift card holder. This was a harder class but was really enjoyed by those that took the class.
In the Evening on Thursday I had a Shaped Greeting card class, making two cards.

Then I did a very basic Blendabilities Class which was repeated on Friday.


Friday we had the Blendabilities again. But then we had a project life class.  take a look at what Valerie did with Project life.

Next we had Bags & Tags  This is just one creation.

Friday night we had Cards, Cards, Cards just come and create cards.  It was a fun time and a lot of work got done, we even stayed longer than planned.


Saturday was a repeat of a few classes plus it had one of our most popular classes.  The Paper Snowflake Class.

Today we finished up with the general Session.  Everyone who attended any class got a convention bag. It was filled with goodies.

The General Session had 2 make and takes.


Everyone who came to the general session received a gift plus we had Prize Patrol, that popped up a few times.


It was a fun time and I think everyone had a great time.  Next year I hope to be going to the Stampin' up! Inspire Create and Share Convention in Salt Lake City.  If you would like to go you can just join my team by clicking here.  It is a great deal to join the fun.  For $99 you will receive $125 worth of product of your choice.  That can even be the Big Shot.  Pay the same price as the Big Shot plus get $25 more products for your Big Shot. Best yet if you remain a Demonstrator you will be able to go to Inspire, Create, Share July 22 - 25, 2015 in Salt Lake City.  If you have questions please ask either comment here or e-mail me by clicking here.

Happy Stamping
