Simply Sent

World Cardmaking Day was on Saturday the 4th of October, which I celebrated with a workshop with some lovely ladies. To celebrate World cardmaking Day, Stampin' Up! have taken 20% off all 5 beautiful Simply Sent Kits from the 4 till the 11th of October. As the group of ladies are experienced cardmakers, I took along an assortment of embellishments and tools to allow them to experiment altering the designs. We used the Pretties Kit, Rub Ons, Brads & Eyelets, Distessing Tool, Crystal Effects and the Crop a Dile. Deanne made a really cute distessed mini card from the 'Friendly Notes' Simply Sent Card Kit. As we didn't have the 1/4 inch ribbon on hand, Deanne split the wider grosgrain ribbon in half, before knotting it in the centre of a Pretties Kit flower.

Another of Deanne's cards was made from the 'Simple Delights' Simply Sent Card Kit. Look at how the 'Cherished Memories' Rub Ons have added to the texture of the card. Deanne has also coloured the Pretties Kit flower with a Bashful Blue Marker and spread the colour using an Aqua Painter.

The Simply Sent Kits are already terrific value, because they contain everything you need to create your cards, including pre cut cardstock, inks, adhesives and tools such as Stampin' Write Markers and 2 way Glue Pens (the tools vary according to the kit purchased). These kits make a great gift and definitely now is the best time to buy with 20% off. I have listed the new prices below, which are valid till October 11th.

What better way to finish off this post by showing you the lovely cakes that my hostess Rae made for the workshop. Don't they look gorgeous in white - I can let you know that they tasted delicious too! Keep posted for some more clever ways to get 'double duty' from your Stampin' Up! products.
