Stampin’ Up Kit Alternatives and Gift Bags

October 18, 2021 Leave a Comment

Hi everyone.  What a busy month!  I am working on a bunch of projects for my “Birthday Retreat”.  I am going to Texas to meet with  my upline and we are working on some Christmas gifts.  I am prepping as much as I can so I can get these all created while I am gone.  I have also been working on Bingo preparation.  I can’t wait for Bingo Tuesday night.  I still have 7 kits available.  See more information below.  Before I get to the information on the gift bags, let’s start with some big news.

Big News

I want to share the news of the Flash Sale coming on October 20th.  Don’t miss out on this.  Please use the current Host Code when shopping.  You can SHOP HERE.

Today I decided to share how to create a gift bag.  Yes I did this in the past but it’s been requested a bit so I thought I would share it again along with an idea I had with the cute Love, Santa Tag kit.

The video shows you how I create both projects.  Always look at the stamp set in a kit or Paper Pumpkin and think about using it for DSP.

MEASUREMENTS

Larger Bag

  • Use 2 pieces of 12 x 12 DSP
  • Score one side of DSP at 2 inches. Think about the DSP direction of the flap and the bag.
  • Score remaining 3 at 3 inches.
  • Card stock to reinforce measures 2 7/8 inch by 5 7/8 inch.
  • Cut the tabs off of the bottom of one of the sheets (the two outside tabs). Wedge tabs on other piece.

Smaller Bag

Start with your paper being square.  I used 8.5 x 8.5″  I scored at 1.5″ on 3 sides.

VIDEO

Take a look at my September Bingo and see what my bingo is about.  I would love to have you join us for my October Bingo.

Check out the Video HERE.

Supply List for Bingo – some are color choices so I have multiple items listed

October’s Host Code

November’s Bingo Registration – Available Now!

I decided to NOT do the Eden’s Garden for November’s Bingo.  I don’t want anyone to worry about getting the paper because it is limited time and I want to make sure I have enough for the bingo.  So after taking a poll, November’s Bingo will be another 4 great projects from the Annual Catalog.

 

Whip it Up Wednesday

On Wednesdays I will be LIVE on YouTube with Whip it Up Wednesday.  I will NOT be sending out a post on Thursday about the new updated projects that I did but I will post the photos to my blog so feel free to check out  my blog after the video to see more details about the projects that we created.  This will help from you getting so many posts from me during the week and you will only get one on Monday morning after Sunday’s video.  Also, because it is “on the fly” there isn’t a lot of prep for the sizes and products so just check out the video on YouTube for the different projects.

Don’t forget to give me your idea of what you would like to see me create with.  It’s fun to see what we come up with.

Holiday Catalog is available through the end of the year

The time is here!!!!  The Mini Holiday Catalog and the Sale-a-bration is here and ready for you to shop.  Not sure what to get for your FREE item, check out this video showing you the different options.
