I Pledge to be Better at this..! +Class prep update

 Hey Crafty Fam-Jam! Hope you're all staying well and covered in glue 💓

This last year has been a BLURR for me. Seriously. 2022 went by SO FAST.

Between physical health problems and mental health struggles it was a tough year... a BIG shout out to my amazing support system xox I wouldn't have made it through without you.

If you're struggling...reach out for help. You owe it to yourself.

Crafting is my outlet. It makes me happy all over and sharing my art with others is even better!

MOVING ON...

This January when we were discussing our New Year's resolutions and goals I made the decision to take my online business seriously. The last year and a half I've just been poking at it whilst dealing with my brain. We did very well at the 3 Craft Fairs we participated in during the holiday season, but I didn't want to JUST be a holiday biz.

This Saturday will be the launch of my very first In-Person Class that I am hosting at my home.

The event will be the beginning of a series of events I'll be putting on focusing on new bundles being released from Stampin Up!.

Open House event on Saturday is a very informal class, more of a Card Buffet really. I've been busy making samples using 9 or 10 (not done yet lol) Stamp sets or Bundles that my guests can recreate. Each class kit consists of a surprise stamp set, pack of embellishments and 4 card packets of their choice. People can add on packets for $3 each.

I'm excited for what this year has in store for me, with my Card business and my Demonstratorship. Making money while creating art and spreading handmade kindness is the best.

Holy SHEETLoad of Cards!!

 Greetings Happy Crafters! Hope everyone is doing well and keeping on the paper trail! 

After about 2 weeks of ignoring my Craft room... I've made the effort to get back in here. I even managed to get some Father's day cards ready for my stash. (serpate post to come for those!)

That being said, I recently received some gorgeous Designer Series Paper in the mail I purchased from a fellow crafter and I couldn't wait to cut into it!! I have a soft spot for Berries (decorative and edible lol) so this Berry-licious Paper was just perfect. I also had the PERFECT project to use it for... #sheetloadofcards by Call Me Crafty Al on YouTube.

Alicia puts together a FREE Template every 1st of the month for anywhere from 6 to 12 cards, plus cutting guides to get the most love out of the Patterned Papers. All she asks is that you Subscribe to her YouTube channel (also Free)

I was very happy to stumble upon her channel through a Card Swap I signed up for on Swap-Bot.com back in May 2021 :)

The March 2022 Sheetload was for 6 cards using 6 pieces of 6x6 Patterned papers. I received my DSP in 6x12 sheets (easiest and cheaper for mailing) and of course being Stampin' Up! DSP it's double sided. Meaning I just needed 3 sheets for my 6 pieces.

The cards didn't take me long at all and turned out beautifully <3 The Stamp Set and the DSP are both from a previous Sale-a-bration that happened before I joined Stampin' Up! as a Demonstrator, so sadly you cannot purchase it from my online store...BUT if you're on Facebook there are many Canada Wide Crafters Buy n Sell groups. Which is where I found the paper and the stamp set for these cards. 

Are there any specific sets of Stamps/Dies/DSP that are retired that you still use all the time? Or just a favourite product you just LOVE? Leave me a comment below!

Keep it Crafty Friends!

HoneyBee Home Card Class! Sale-a-bration!

 Here is a Sneak Peek at the Honeybee Home Card class I will be launching shortly!

Cost of the class is $90, which includes shipping to anywhere in Canada! 

When this bundle was first revealed in the Spring Mini Catalog... I knew that I HAD TO HAVE IT. I love anything related to Bees 💕

This is my first official class as a Demonstrator, but I have taught Card making and Scrapbooking for 15 years. Doing craft days with friends as well as being an Instructor at Michael's Craft store for 4 years.

I've always been "Crafty", ever since I was small. I also Crochet, Knit, Cross Stitch, Bake and Cook.
I attended VCC (Vancouver Community College) Professional Cooking Program and loved every minute of it!

I'm excited to get into this Blogging thing (LOL) and really dig in 😁

If you're interested in signing up for the class, or if you just have questions...please email me!

Until next time.. Stay Crafty Friends!

Fancy That Stampin Is LIVE!

 Just a short and sweet note that I have finally created a BLOG!

It's going to take some time to figure all of this stuff out, but I will get there!

Thanks so much for taking the time to look and for your support of my small business 💗 I appreciate it so so much.

Stay tuned for new posts and updates!
