Or you can order directly from my online store at: kimquade.stampinup.net. (If you place your order directly, I’ll send you a check to reimburse you for your shipping costs.) This offer is only available through me.

With any orders of $60 or more, I’ll gift you a free package of Jingle Bells (found on page 13 of the Holiday Catalog.) Remember to check the Clearance Rack. New items were recently added.

 Online Club Forming

Are you looking for inspiration, fun, and free product? A monthly club could be for you. How does it work?

You sign up for a six-month term and commit to:

  • Entering a $25 minimum online order (before shipping & tax) each month. You’re responsible for paying the shipping and tax on orders you place.
  • Placing your order by the 15th (or other specified day) of each month
  • Using the host code for each month provided to you in an email sent at the beginning of each month

Once six members have committed, I’ll conduct a random drawing to determine your host month. You’re then guaranteed:

  • A minimum $150 workshop order during your designated month as the host
  • A minimum of $15 in Stampin’ Rewards to spend on exclusive host stamp sets or any other current Stampin’ Up! product during your designated month**
  • Exclusive product perks for your orders each month. For example, it could be a set of rhinestones for a $50+ order.
  • Free monthly tutorial with four projects delivered via email
  • Free catalogs during your club membership term
  • A free, current stamp set of your choice (valued up to $25) at the end of the six-month period (excluding host sets)
  • First chance to sign up for the next six-month term

**When it’s your month to host, you’re welcome (and encouraged) to gather additional orders to increase your Stampin’ Rewards. (Just give your friends the monthly host code and ordering information.) If you already have five friends who want to participate, start your own exclusive club.

Additional note: Your commitment is for six months. Other crafters in the club are counting on you and your monthly club order.

Please contact me if this opportunity interests you. I’d like to get a club going as soon as possible.

Thanks for joining me today! Be sure to check my event schedule below. Many of you are aware I’ve recently relocated to Mesa, Arizona. I’d love to have you join me anytime.

Team Stamp It Blog Hop–Stargazing

Hello Stampers!

Welcome to Team Stamp It’s monthly blog hop. This month, we’re featuring projects using brand-new products from Stampin’ Up!’s Annual Catalog. Thanks for joining us! Be sure to visit each blog on the hop and leave a comment with the hashtag #tampitcontest. You’ll be entered into a drawing to win a Soft Sayings Card Kit.

There are so many fun new goodies, it was difficult to know where to start! But one of my customers nudged me out of my comfort zone. I love Pinterest, and I get a lot of my ideas from there. However, this customer wanted me to use Stampin’ Up!’s Stargazing stamp set. I found a few ideas on Pinterest, but soon realized I was going to have to create a “Kim Quade Original.” Here is the finished product.

Stampin' Up! Stargazing and Twinkle Builder

Stampin’ Up! Stargazing and Twinkle Builder

The card features a color combination of Night of Navy and Smoky Slate and has hints of bling from Silver Glimmer Paper (punched fro the Twinkle Builder Punch. This card easily lends itself to becoming a shaker card.

Scroll below to see a list of all of the Stampin’ Up! products I used to create this card. Click on any of the product product graphics to be taken directly to my online store where you can shop 24/7.

Thanks for stopping by today! Please let me know if you have questions.

Hubby’s Birthday

Stampin' Up! Enjoy Life and Swirly Frames for Hubby's Birthday

Stampin’ Up! Enjoy Life and Swirly Frames for Hubby’s Birthday

Hello Stampers!

My husband’s birthday is July 24. It happens the same day, year after year. So, why do I wait until the last minute to create a card? I’m usually licking the envelope as he walks in the door from work. I never plan ahead and that leaves me scrambling every single year. Yikes! So yesterday afternoon, I grabbed some remnants left from a class last week and  quickly pulled something together. (He “likes” my Facebook posts, but I’m certain he doesn’t read my blog posts. Let’s hope!)

I had some leftover Blueberry Bushel Foil and a scrap of the In Color Blueberry Bushel Designer Series Paper. He’s a bike rider so I used that for the feature from the Enjoy Life stamp set. The sentiment comes from Ity Bitty Birthdays and the background is from Swirly Frames.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Time for Tags Birthday

Stampin' Up! Time for Tags Hostess

Stampin’ Up! Time for Tags (Hostess)

Hello Stampers!

Sometimes the host sets in the back of the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog get overlooked. But you don’t want to miss out on this versatile set that has a coordinating punch (Timeless Label Punch).

Host a stamping gathering with a few of your friends and you can purchase this set with the rewards you earn from the party. It’s valued at $21, but you can use $12.50 of your rewards to add it to your collection.

There are five fun images perfect for coloring. Here, I’ve used the colors of Melon Mambo and Bermuda Bay featuring the 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper Collections. I used the Stampin’ Write Markers to color the image.

Happy Independence Day

Happy Independence Day with Stampin’ Up!

Hello Stampers!

Happy Independence Day to all of you! I hope you are enjoying time with family, friends, and neighbors!

I received this fun Fourth of July card (inspired by Mary Fish) from one of my team members, Kathy Blume. She used Stampin’ Up!’s Vases Builder Punch and Real Red and Night of Navy card stock to create a festive card. Other fun elements include the Subtle Embossing Folder, Stitched Shapes Dies, and the 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper Pack.

Thanks for stopping by today!
