Thank you Books

We recently had a few big changes in Primary and we had to thank the music leader and pianist for all they did! So I made them a book for all the kids to sign, I wish I would have thought to sign it! Each class got their own full page to sign and draw pictures. I think they turned out so cute!

This paper is an actual sheet of music! (yes I am not afraid to cut up music). My mom teaches piano lessons and she gives me all the sheet music that she doesn't like! Awesome huh?! oh and I just realized that the thank you stamp is retired... I love it though.


My color combo was Basic Black, Very Vanilla, and the new Pool Party.

I'm on Facebook - come check it out!

Hi everyone, I now have a page on facebook! Here is the link: Stamp with Kasia Make sure you click the "Like" button! I will update the page each time I post on this blog, and share class info there as well!

Button Buddies class

Tomorrow I am hosting a class with this fun button buddies stamp set and I thought I should share the cards we are making with you!


This stamp set is so fun. Each image coordinates with the buttons we sell. The images look cute without a button, the button just makes it pop!

I am loving the scallop polka dot ribbon! they put 2 of my favorite things together!

ok so I have to admit... I LOVE rainbows! so this card makes me happy. I stole the idea to have the snail trail the kindness stamp. I love the new site for demonstrators! they have tons of fun ideas.

Ok so my friend Melanie totally opened my eyes. I probably would have never thought of this... a sick green pig! love it. (thanks Melanie for letting me case this card!)

Anniversary party cards

You all can't wait to see the projects we made at the party right? Well here they are! Everyone who came to my house made these cards for free to celebrate my 7 years with Stampin' Up! Each card used one of the new in colors and every card had a new stamp set!

For this first card we used the Up, Up & Away stamp set and new Pool Party color! This card is a 4x4 card. Did you know that you can get 4 4x4 cards out of one 12x12 sheet? Try it sometime :)

I love those hot air balloons. I have some more balloon cards/pages to show you soon! This next card is made with the new Doily background stamp and the new Calypso Coral ink.

This Last card uses the Pennant Parade stamp set and the Lucky Limeade color. I LOVE that the pennant stamps match the new pennant punch!

Well this event was definitely a success! Keep a look out for my Anniversary party next year! (probably in July - I don't know the exact date I signed up but know it is at the end of July... I should call and find out :) Thanks to everyone who helped me celebrate! Enjoy all your free stuff!

You're Invited!

I have been a Demonstrator for 7 years now, WOW. I still can't believe it was that long ago, it seems like it was yesterday that I was picking out the stamps and ink pads that I got in my starter kit.

So to celebrate, I am throwing myself a party and you are all invited! It will be on Friday the 12th at my home, from 5:00 to 8:00 PM. (plan to stay for an hour or so)

We will:
*make 3 cards for FREE!
*sign up for fall classes
*shop my exclusive Stampin' Up! yard sale

At the yard sale I will have most of my retired stamps, paper, ink, punches, kits, big shot dies, stamped items, retired catalogs and anything else I can find! You will be able to purchase these items with "Kasia's kash" (everyone who attends will get some kash, and you will be able to earn some more kash!) you will be able to purchase with real money too if you like.

Anyone is invited (you will want to bring a friend to earn more kash).

Stamp Club members will earn additional kash - so make sure you come!

Everyone must RSVP so I can have your projects ready for you!

This is going to be tons of fun, I already have tons of boxes of retired stuff all ready and I am working on the cards! I will try to post pictures soon! Yea! I am so excited!!! See you soon!

Gift Bags

I am LOVING the new pennant die for the big shot, and the punch too of course. I used the smallest pennant on the die for this bag. and the medium sized pennant for this baby one. Here is a close up of the hair clip I put on the bag... I love this flirtatious fabric! It was pretty simple to decorate these bags, just paper and dimensionals! So Fun. Next time I want to try it with the punch, think of how many pennants we could add!

Downline meeting projects

I had a ton of fun at my group meeting last night and I wanted to share some of the projects we made. On this card we used the new Doily background stamp. I love the detail on this stamp! We also used the new scallop polka dot ribbon... we just hid the polka dots and used the plain side. This next card might be the card we make at stamp club next month... but I haven't decided yet. I have to admit that I bought this Patterned Party stamp set for the banner stamp only, I just had to have the birthday banner!

We made this oval with the new embossing folder and I was so excited to see that the oval die cuts an oval to fit it perfectly!

The third project I designed was this box.

This is the new blossom box Big Shot die. It takes a bit of time folding the score lines but is pretty simple if you follow the directions. Here is a side view of the box to show the depth.

We attached the scallop circle to the box with the new mini clothespin. I love them!


FYI: when you make this box you can close it like this...

But we pushed in the top so the scallop circle could lay flat and attached the clothespin on one of the ruffles. I didn't take a picture of the box open but you can just open the top if you like or open it so it lays flat. So do you want to join us next time?

Doilies galore!

We had stamp club this week and all the projects we used were made with the Flirtatious suite (page 126 -127 of the new catalog). I had a fun time creating samples and I had a wow moment! I stamped this doily stamp on old olive cardstock and it looked so much like a tree that I created this card around it! I free handed the trunk and tied on some fabric for the ribbon. I have been using this owl punch a lot lately. I love using these googlie eyes.


These next two cards I cased from the other demonstrators. I changed them up a bit but they are pretty similar, I would post a link but they are on a website for demonstrators only.

This card was cased from Robin Merriman. I LOVE this new color, it is called Pool Party! Robin's card didn't have the doily, but she took the picture on an orange dish and I loved the color combo.



This card was cased from Tessa Wise. It is a 3x3 card and it also has a new color called Island Indigo! I just love the embossed doily, it really pops.


I will show the club projects we made soon! Are you all enjoying the new catalog? What is your new favorite thing?
