Stampin' Up! Sprinkles of Life

Saturday, 22 August 2015

I wanted to show you some great cards made with the Sprinkles of Life Stampset from Stampin' Up! This stampset is so adorable! And one of the best parts is that there is a coordinating punch for the set. It makes it so easy to create amazing cards!

Check out these great cards!

I received this card from Jenn Tinnline. Love how she's used different circle punches for the dots

This card was made by Mo Dickie. I love the colours - makes me want some mint chocolate chip ice cream!

This card was made by Diane Evans. So cute with the glitter on the ice cream scoops!

Ginny Duncan made this card. So cute!

For every one of these stamp sets purchased, Stampin' Up! will donate $3 to Ronald McDonald House Charities. What a great way to give to a very worthwhile cause.

I worked at BC's Children's Hospital early in my career as a pharmacist so had a chance to see first hand what a difference that the Ronald McDonald House makes in the lives of the families need to be away from home to receive care.

I've also been very privileged to participate in a RMHC Stamp Camp for the last 3 years organized by some SU! Demonstrators in the Lower Mainland. This year's event is on October 17th from 10:30am to 2:30pm. The theme is Christmas so you'll make 9 different cards throughout the day. Great fun and you'll be a step ahead in getting ready for Christmas! Cost for the day is $45 and besides the cards, includes a goodie back and a light lunch.

Happy Stamping!

I'm enjoying some holiday time on our boat in the Southern Gulf Islands of British Columbia. We in our last week - but have been having a wonderful time relaxing and enjoying the sunshine. I even got a little stamping on a day that had a bit of rain.

Check out my finished cards from the July Paper Pumpkin kit.

This month's cards are so cute!

If you haven't checked out Paper Pumpkin yet, there is a great offer for new subscribers (or previous subscribers with a new email address) - 50% off your kit for the first 2 months.

Paper Pumpkin is a great "all inclusive" kit that comes to your door each month automatically. It contains everything you need to make a set of cards or a project. The cost is $24.95 per month (includes shipping). If you take advantage of the offer before September 10th, you'll pay half price for the first two months. You can choose to stop at any time after your first two kits or you can choose to take a break. I'm not sure why you'd do either of these, but the options are there!

If you have questions, email me or click here to start your subscription.

Have a look at the Weekly Specials for this week.

I saw so many amazing cards and projects at the Stampin' Up! Convention. I thought you might enjoy seeing some of the boards of the swaps that were on display.
