PUMPKINS, SALES, KITS AND MORE!





Have you seen the new PaperPumpkin website! It has a sleek new design, simpler navigation, and a greater focus on our amazing kits! The FAQ has been removed, but they have implemented the information into the new How It Works page. They made some small changes to the sign up process, but the steps to subscribe and manage your account remain the same. (Yay, you don’t have to learn a new process!) 

Don’t forget—if they use promo code “BOGO” by October 10, you’ll get the October kit for $26.95 CA and the November kit for FREE! You don't want to miss out on that great day!

Designer Tin of Cards Project Kit sale 

So I mentioned yesterday that one of the World Card Making Day sale items is the Designer Tin of Cards. From Oct 1-5 you save 25%. It was $36 and for a limited time it is $27.

Who says organization has to be boring? This fun printed tin gives you plenty of room to store the cards that you make from this kit, plus room for more. Kit includes tin and enough card bases, accents, and envelopes for 16 cards, 4 each of 4 designs. Coordinates with Designer Tin of Cards Stamp Set (item 141739). Stamps, ink, and adhesive sold separately.

If you are interested in taking advantage of this great price - we can plan a night where you can use the stamp set and inks not included to put this Tin of Cards together for a cost of $10. Or you can purchase those items as well and create the kit at home. I know I will be purchasing a few sets to give away as gifts. Need more information - contact me at amy.grendel@gmail.com or 613-888-0589. 

Here is a video from Stampin' Up! about this kit.


Don't forget about the other great promotions on right now - check out the list of items on sale for World Card Making Day by clicking here.



And I mentioned this during my Open House weekend - Designer Series Paper Sale


During the entire month of October, you can buy three packages of Designer Series Paper and get one FREE! That’s great news since everyone can use more Designer Series Paper. Check out the full details and resources, and don’t let anyone miss this great opportunity to save.

WORLD CARD MAKING DAY - OCTOBER 1ST

First of all I can't believe this Saturday is already the start of October! September went by in a blur. The temperatures are cooler and the leaves are - sort of - changing and you can smell and taste pumpkin spice everywhere! Fall is definitely here and Thanksgiving is just around the corner.

And with that brings - World Card Making Day!



Do you remember the last time you received a card in the mail? In a sea of junk mail and bills, a card is a simple thing that really stands out to the person who receives it. Sending a card is a small gesture that shows just how much you care about that special someone in your life. With World Card Making Day coming up on October 1, celebrate by creating and sending a handmade card to someone who could use a little recognition, love, or just a boost (which is anyone, really!).


ALSO in celebration, I’ll have discounts for you on select card making essentials and I'll share those with you tomorrow and provide a few ideas for some cards you can be making! 

PLUS if you post a picture of a card you make on #WCMD2016,  you'll get entered to win a sweet little surprise from me :) 

Share this with your friends to get everyone excited for World Card Making Day!

THIRD CLASS REVEAL!

I am so excited to share with you another class that I will be offering in November!


When I saw the Candy Cane Lane designer series paper and stamp set I knew it was something I was going to use A LOT for this upcoming holiday. It can either look fun and whimsical or elegant and classic. 

I love to give sweet treats over the holidays - homemade baked goods or even some fun holidays candies done up in cute packaging - and so these tags will the be perfect addition to those. Plus you will make a cute box with a clear top that you can use to ether store your tags, giveaway the tag set to someone as a gift or use the box to giveaway more yummy treats! So many options.

Here is a closer look at the tags:


In the class we will be making:
3 - 2.5: square tags
3 - scallop circle tags
2 - 3" square tags
2 - 3" booklet tags
1 - cute box

The cost of the class is $20 and again I will be offering it in two locations:
Kingston | Monday, November 7th - 7-9pm
Brockville | Sunday, November 13th - 2-4pm
(if you would like to do this class but these dates don't work for you please email me)

To register for the class - email me at amy.grendel@gmail.com

There are so many options with the candy cane lane items - check out the awesome ideas right from the catalogue:



Add a gingerbread man or a cute reindeer!

So next up in our online event - is a Q&A time - if you have any questions I would love to hear from you - can be about scrapbooking, card making, paper crafting, whatever.
Text questions to 613-888-0589 or email them to amy.grendel@gmail.com

I will be answering them on my Facebook group - check it out!


LETS PARTY !!! AND ANOTHER GIVEAWAY

When you host a workshop, you'll see new project ideas, learn different techniques, make a project, and have fun with people you enjoy.

As a hostess, you'll choose a date that works for us both, then invite your friends and family into your home to stamp and have fun with you. Your Stampin' Up! workshop can be as simple or elaborate as you and I want it to be. It can be a class where you make specific projects or a training to learn new techniques. No matter what you have in mind, I will help you make it the perfect event for you and your friends.
