Picking Out Stamps To Use

When I start to pick out stamps to use - I don't just look at the set and decide if I like it - to buy it!!!  I look at the stamp or set I would be purchasing, and I think about how many different ways I can use it!!!  I also do this same thing when I purchase a die cut set as well!  It makes it so I can purchase different sets of things to go with other different sets of things...  AND - if I can use that set on more than one "thing" - it makes the purchase that much better!!! 

Stampin' Up stamps make it easy to purchase one set - and then add it to another one, or another one!  They have an awesome tin of cards - (I will be doing a class with this tin) - not only will you make the cards within the tin - but I will also be showing you how to use those same stamps, and use them with other stamp sets to create your own stash of cards!  This class will help you get the cards done, AND be able to make more when you are done using those up!!  And - the best part about that - purchase a card pack and envelopes, adding papers and ink pads, and you have the perfect starts to your own style of cards!  
Adding die cuts along with your stamps and ink pads, using Stampin' Up's papers and ink pads, you can make beautiful cards to give away to your friends and family that is truly one of a kind and your own style!   Add this to your Paper Pumpkin purchase each month, and you will have a few stamps you can work with, along with ink pads - in nothing flat!  Let me know if you need some help in planning a few sets out, we can schedule a 30 minute consultation for free in order to plan out a few stamp sets you need to purchase, projects or even small "how to's"!  

I have a lot of fun creating my own style of handmade cards - this week, will be working on some sympathy cards for a cousin of mine's family who passed away recently!  Another one of those things that I don't want to do, but glad when I finally get them done AND in the mail!
Until next time,
Lynda Jeffs
