Stampin’ Up! comes up with some great products and this one is definitely great in a couples ways. Who likes to get together with their girlfriends? Who would like to take a stab at being creative this Christmas? Who wants to try out Stampin’ Up! but doesn’t know what to order?
If you said “Me” to any of these questions, then I have the right kit for you.
The Watercolor Simply Created Card Kit includes all of the paper, embellishments and envelopes you need to make 20 truly beautiful cards for only $24.95. You just need to order a few other items to make this kit work. This is where the Ladies Night idea helps out.
Gather some girlfriends together and each order your own kit (or put them together all on one order and you can take advantage of some free hostess dollars). Order only one set of the supplement items (I listed them at the end of this post) needed because you can all share. Do all of the watercoloring and stamping at the beginning of your gathering, put a few cards together and then you can always put the rest together at home (in case you are having too much fun catching up).
Check out all of these photos of the kit:
Here is my completed set of 20 cards – they are awesome and only “card worthy” people will get them.
Here I am painting. Truly easy and no staying in the lines. The paintbrush comes with the kit and I used my re-inkers and a little water in some containers I had. Yogurt containers would work great.
Everything is painted, dry and ready to assemble. You see those red tweezers? A great tool when working with all of these letters. Not sure if you can see or not, but you have the option of using multiple languages in your greetings.
Here are the letters up close. Look at all the extras I have to use on other projects!
I just love this vibrant red sled and the gold glitter paper. So many details.
The white woodgrain paper comes already embossed in the kit.
This photo does not do this card justice. It is so striking and sparkly.
I painted these gray lines – so easy and a technique I am sure to duplicate. Easy, easy, easy.
