Happenings ~ Simply Created Card Kit
The Happenings ~ Simply Created Card Kit is a great kit for stampers at all experience levels. It contains the supplies to make 15 cards – the only extra supplies needed is some adhesive, stamp set and ink pad or marker pen.
I decided to make a video to show how quick and easy it is to put these cards together, the kit would make a great teacher appreciation gift or for young person to make up some cards as a handmade gift for their teacher. Continue reading
Creative Elements Cards
I needed cards for three different occasions, “Happy Birthday’, ‘Happy Anniversary’ and ‘Congratulations’ for a new grandchild.

The stamp set was Stampin Up’s Creative Elements ( and we just heard today this set is being retired and is now only available while stocks last!) see the bottom of this post for a great ‘free shipping’ offer 🙂
