Handmade for the Holidays at the County Fair

​Greetings,

I wanted to reach out and thank those of you for stopping by my Stampin'Up! booth at the Pierce County Fair on Thursday.  I was able to hand out the new Holiday Catalog, Handmade for the Holidays. I wanted to point out a few of my favorite things in the annual and holiday catalog.  I have used the Butterfly Basics stamp set and thinlits to create cards from birthdays to sympathy (page 124).  Sheltering Tree (page 89) is versatile for any season.  A MUST have living in the Midwest!  And if I had to pick my favorite flower set it would be the Flower Patch (page 76) and the thinlits.

It doesn't get much better then the goodies in the Holiday Catalog, Homemade for the Holidays (items avail for ordering beginning 

September 1)!  Skip right to the cuteness and try to resist the adorable snowman and penguin, Snow Place (page 33) and thinlits!  I'm waiting on my order to come in on Monday and hoping they don't melt ;)  Looking for some amazing trees to use all seasons?  Check out the Peaceful Pines and thinlits (Page 17).

Be sure to look at my classes for August and September and come over so we can get to know each other.  Lost the list?  No worries go to my website: www.Kris.stampinup.net and be sure to follow my blog: stampinwithkris.blogspot.com

​I look forward to seeing you soon.  Please feel free to contact me with any of your project needs!​

Purse Full of Cards

Ladies, Those of you that know me know that I don't carry a purse. I'm content with shoving what I need into my back pocket or my bra :). As I was prepping for my next craft fair (Newport, Pioneer Days, August 9th) I created this little purse with some cards to put in it. Now I'm addicted to making them! They are so stink in' cute! So cute in fact that I am going to make it a special class on Saturday, July 25th at 10:30 AM. RSVP at www.Kris.stampinup.net $7 for the small purse with 4 cards or $10 for the large purse with 5 cards.
