March 2021 is the one year birthday of Card Kit in the Mail!
Let me tell you a little about my business model.
I'm a fan of the Party Plan model that most direct sales businesses are based on.
I've hosted and attended MANY, many parties.
You know the routine:
You attend a party that your friend booked and you order to help her get things for free or as bonuses.
Since I always felt awkward "asking" for the bookings, I quickly turned to a monthly, in person stamping event as something to offer.
It allowed me to offer stamping fun without anyone feeling obligated to purchase more than the supplies they'd be using that day.
I'd invite people I had met, and have them come and make 8 projects that myself and my stamping partner created.
Some people would even purchase double or triple sets to work on in the time they had to stamp together.
I loved these gatherings.
They worked well with the limited time I had available and it provided a "day away" for my stamping friends who attended.
I had always dreamed of doing more online. I see what other Demonstrators do online. I liked some of what I saw, and didn't like some.
I always knew "someday" I'd create an online version of my business, but last March I was FORCED to do it.
Our state as well as most of the country was put into LOCKDOWN for a "few weeks".
The birth of Card Kit in the Mail
I had already prepped my projects for our March in person stamping day which was shut down, so I offered the projects to those who had RSVP'd to the stamping day.
I had a couple people take me up on the "kit" version but still had some prepped projects available.
Next I reached out to a large group of people all over the country and offered a "kit" version of the projects.
This sold out the remaining prepped projects, so I just needed to put together a little instructions with photos of the finished projects so anyone could take the kits and prep them into finished cards.
MARCH CARD KIT IN THE MAIL is special!
To celebrate the Card Kit in the Mail we will have two bonus card projects with each kit.
The single kit will include 10 cards for only $25.
The double kit will include 18 cards for $45
and the BEST DEAL is a triple kit will include 26 cards for $65.
If you'd like to just purchase the instructions, there's an option for that as well!
As usual the kits include all the pre-cut, punched and die cut pieces, envelopes, as well as any embellishments required.
You will need to provide your own stamp set and ink to complete the projects, but they are designed so that you can make the cards for any occasion of your choosing.
Kits are SOLD OUT!
Embossed background, pretty paper butterflies, make a card that could be used for so many occasions.
Mile a Minute cards!
I love a quick and easy card ideas.
The one I'm sharing today is something I call a Mile a Minute card.
I call it Mile a Minute because you'll get alot accomplished very quickly and there won't be any waste in your paper.
In one of my other favorite hobbies, crochet, there is a stitch pattern also called Mile A Minute.
In that pattern you crochet using double or triple stitches which covers more ground than the smaller single stitch.
I decided I would develop ways to bring short cuts to card making too!
Today I'm going to share some of those secrets to fast cards!

Where are my chicken lovers?!
Lol! No, I don't mean those of you afraid to love.
I mean those who have chicken decor in your home.
Maybe you have chickens in your yard, or shed, or a full blown coop!
I know there are several of you out there!
Yesterday Stampin' Up! launched not one but TWO NEW Bundles that are perfect for anyone that loves chickens!
There's the Hey Chick bundle and the Hey Birthday Chick bundle!
First, aren't those the cutest names?!
Both are perfect to make cards or scrapbook pages or decor for the chicken lovers in your life!
Or maybe make something for anyone that needs a smile!
After all, getting a card with one of these cute chickens on it would make anyone smile!
Second, let's look at the detail on those cards!
I wanted to share the cards above because they have a clever background technique that I'd like to share.
They have 3/4" x 4" pieces of cardstock and 3/4" x 3" pieces in matching colors to the card base.
They are arranged to create just a little bit of interest on the plain card base.
Think of the possibilities!
I adore the color combination of the middle card!
It's very fresh and I like how they punched out pieces of pretty paper using the Tailored Tag Punch.
Now, even if you didn't add the chickens, you could use that idea for a card!
Plus, if you don't have the Tailored Tag Punch it would work with any shape punch you might have!
Shop for the NEW Chicken Bundles here!
If Hey Chick sounds familiar or the stamp set looks familiar to you, you're right!
It was available as a Saleabration freebie in the past.
Now you can pick up the die set that coordinates with it!
Maybe you just want the stamp sets!
You don't have to get the dies, you could get the stamp set Hey Chick or the brand new Hey Birthday Chick which would let you make some cute things!
As I said, you could get just the stamp sets or just the dies, but then you wouldn't save 10% on the bundle and you might not qualify for Saleabration rewards!
Don't forget, you get to choose something for free with EVERY $50 purchase this month!
Check out the NEW Chicken Bundles!
Hey Chick bundle and Hey Birthday Chick bundle!
Two times the fun!
Two times the opportunity for Saleabration freebies!
Remember Saleabration ends in February, not March!
Don't delay!
